mmb Posted November 22, 2021 Report Share Posted November 22, 2021 Page is going to score some. They’ll throw it 40+ times. We’ll have to get pressure to help out the coverage on the back end.. which I think we will. I think we’ll be the more physical team, on both sides of the ball. I’m going to say 30-14 Big Red. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigRedRealist Posted November 22, 2021 Report Share Posted November 22, 2021 I agree with mmb, Page will score some. This is how I see it. I feel Page offense will be much better than Springfields, however Page defense is not nearly as good as Springfield. (looking at highlights on Page and seeing Springfield twice) I see a higher scoring game. If Page can't stop the run game, HC will be content running,,,,alot and play ball control. If Page makes some stops, HC will balance things out in the air and it could become a track meet. In playoffs, special teams are magnified. HC has been very solid lately in special teams and has taken care of the ball. Looking forward to this game. GO BIG RED 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pizzpatriot2 Posted November 23, 2021 Report Share Posted November 23, 2021 It should be an offensive game for sure with lots of points. I and us Page faithful are excited. This has been an incredible run for us, historic. I’m hoping the field will not be a mess and slow us down. Our edge is speed but we are going to need traction in the middle to stop that HC run game.

MSURacer Posted November 23, 2021 Report Share Posted November 23, 2021 I'm sure this will annoy my fellow Henry County faithful, but I still believe Page is the favorite here. I've been saying for weeks (around the time we were 3-5 and Springfield dropped their game to Beech) that whoever comes out of that bracket will have the upper hand over whoever comes out of this one. If I am wrong, it will be some of the sweetest crow I've ever eaten. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody (including me) thought after we was 3-5 that we would even be close to the semifinals, but yet here we are. They have surpassed expectations after the rough start. Yes, we all want to go to play for a State Championship and still very well may, but we have nothing to lose now. We go to Page and lay it ALL on the line and play our #### off and I believe everyone at Henry County can live with the results!!! Proud of our Henry County team!!!!

We wasnt the favorite against Springfield last week I didn't think but we see how that turned out. Page is a different animal. We will have to bring our best game and then some. I think Counce has them playing the best we can possibly play right now!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is one heck of a run HC is on and it lands them to Chattanooga. Roll Red Roll!!!!! Henry Co- 24 Page- 7 My son and I were at that game as Powell fans (he had played for Powell in the early 2000's). Great ballgame, went down to the last play. Afterwards we had dinner at Cheddar's with several HC fans that were there and had some great conversations. Good folks! Good luck Friday night, I think you win but you have to contain McNamara to do so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigdawgtn Posted November 23, 2021 Report Share Posted November 23, 2021 I think HC has to slow this down and just play smash mouth football and control the game. Page likes to throw and that has given HC trouble. If this thing is high scoring i like Page's chances. If HC can run it down there throat and run that clock and get pressure on the qb, I think HC can win by a few scores. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was kinda surprised we had as many rushing yards as we did against that tough Springfield defense. No disrespect to Page but I can't see them being any stouter on defense. If we can run the ball like we usually do, I definitely like our chances. Containing McNamara is a MUST!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigRed, the size of your O-line is going to cause problems for most teams and for that reason I think you will be able to run it on Page. But can you outscore Page? McNamara is as good as I've seen this year, smart, doesn't make bad decisions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
