I believe this is closer than the experts believe. The Wade Twins make this game memorable. Good luck to both teams.....this will be the best game of the weekend.

While the Wade twins make this a good game to watch, I look back at Lipscomb /Oakland game and have to ask, where you had really big threats at the RB and QB positions and great coaches on either sideline, what was the real difference?,

After watching the Pats/REB games I watched the Hendersonville Summit match up and saw Hendersonville's run game have pretty good success. Although they couldn't punch it in and made several mistakes, they moved the ball effectively. I think both teams can match athlete for athlete to some degree, and that where it gets out of hand a little bit.  Oakland has been pressed by Madison Ridge Academy  (Mississippi state Champs) CPA, Lipscomb and now Maryville, and found ways to grind out a win. Summit hasn't faced a team that could field as many athletes as they have, but they will when they meet Oakland. 

The other aspect to look at is that defensive side of the ball. Oakland is so quick to the ball and will give Wade more looks than he is used to with a new wrinkle every other play. If you watched many games that Oakland has played the d-coordinator keeps you guessing who's coming and when. This should be a whale of a game. I'll hold my picks until I know who is healthy for the Patriots.

Got to go with Oakland. Never rule out coach Creasy. I watched Summit & H'ville. H'vile moved the ball quite well at times. Oakland is on another level.

I would say Oakland wins, but Summit has basically the same team that won the 5A last year that I saw then. The Wade brothers make them go on both sides of the ball. They are hard to defend and solid. It wouldn't surprise me if it was close and just a little if Summit won.

Will be a heck of a game. Oakland by 2 TD’s.

Buck's recruits and the Rutherford County All-Stars by 28. Summit's home grown boys can not compete.

Should be a great game that I look forward to watching. I’ve got OHS in a close one.

Summit has a chance to keep this close. I just believe Oakland has played enough tough games this year they either squeak it out of run away completely

Considering how well Hendersonville ran their Wing-T, I believe Oakland has better athletes and will run it even better, I am interested to how the Wade twins do against the Oakland defense, and although I see some, I dont see near the success they have had against everyone else. It will be a fun game to watch and close for maybe a half, I got Oakland by 3 scores, more if Summit turns the ball over...
