Coffee wins by 21, FC has been down since RED Roberts days, sad to say cause they used to be a contender.

I'll go FC by 21.  Some very serious athletes at FC, and unlike the last several years, there's a QB who can get them the ball.  QB was the difference in this game last year, imo.  CC QB threw 3 TD's, whereas FC QB threw 3 INT's, but was only a one score game.

FC beat Lipscomb Academy and others to finish 2nd in the Riverdale 7v7 a few weeks back (28 teams, incl Riverdale, Oakland, etc), and FC played well, threw for 4 TD's to 4 different receivers and outscored Fayetteville last week in a scrimmage.  Fayetteville drilled Giles Co last night.  Most of the same offense who put 40 points up on Green Hill in the playoffs last year, That was easily the most Green Hill gave up in 2020.  Was new QB's first game - threw for 420+ yards.

yeah, I don't think they are "down" any more.  was surprised they beat LA.

FC doesn't have much depth on the line. Their ability to keep linemen healthy will make or break them this year. Plus isn't FC on their 3rd OC in 3 years? I'll go with CC in this one.

When was the last time FC had a great season, late 90's I think.

Rebels gonna need a center. Poor kid done snapped it over the QB’s head like 5 times tonight. They really going to need to tighten up to play against CC this year. I call it even. Right now. A few kids look fast but they are far from a contender as of tonight.

Definitely uncharacteristic of the center

This is the largest collection of athletic talent FC has put on a football field since they moved to the new high school.

Biggest question mark is can the coaching get the most out of them and put a polished product on the field.

Give me Franklin County by 2+ scores Friday under the lights.

Coffee Co 13-7 Franklin Co half
