I will try to be as objective as possible. The Wildcats are a team. A young team. But a team that will play to the final whistle. I suspect that the cats will appear undersized against the Raiders. I suspect that we will play more kids on both sides of the ball than the Raiders. The Raiders had their hands full with Franklin county and could have put that game away but didn't. I think the Cats can get it done one more time. They have just enough talent and more than enough coaching power to get by one more 6A opponent this year. The young sophomore QB in for CC will not be able to stay out of the crosshairs of the Cats linebacker blitzes. Ask the kid from Shelbyville how fast they get to you. If our coaches dial up enough pressure to keep the passing game dazed and confused then our offense will get enough points on the board to find a W. Our kicking game gives us some tools that many high schools  don't have the luxury of counting on. I think it will be a close game as close as we have seen in very long time. But I can't vote against the Cats after seeing the Shelbyville game. Most of the Wildcats players were on the state champ team so yeah there is that. And a home game.

Overall I was impressed by Tullahoma’s performance over Shelbyville .  They are a more athletic team than I thought they would be after loosing 22 seniors, in fact I heard Friday night that there are 107 kids on the football roster.  That proves kids want to play on winning programs!   I had stated earlier that I thought 5 wins would be a successful season, and I still believe that.  But based on some scores this past weekend and some sports Columns I read, I believe Tullahoma has a decent shot at  winning 6-8 games during the regular season.  This will depend on kids staying healthy, quarterback looked banged up at the end of last weeks game, plus the lone returning starter didn’t even play…  Coach Sisk definitely manages the game way different than Olive did, which I believes gives Tullahoma the element of surprise.  The Coffee County game is one of the games that I believe Tullahoma wins in close one 23-21.

    • If that Yellow Paint is all gone I'll flat bet it didn't wash off there. I bet that took some scrubbing to remove that if it is gone. Lacrosse is one of those northern sports all these misplaced Yankee's that are posion to the community brought in by  (Blount Partnership, ( The Devil) with them so somebody allowed them to paint their markings on the field that cost more than the twenty top people on payroll at Maryville make a year. All this to please the 1% Club and the 25 people that would come to see it. All in the name of WOKE!!!!!!
    • They will probably, struggle 
    • Dyersburg is going to be good, really good. As mentioned, they have a lot of talent on the way and the trio of Chelby, Joya, and KayKay will only be better with a full season together under their belt. To me, playing in Murfreesboro two consecutive postseasons will only serve to make them more dangerous if/when they stand among the final eight teams this March. Experience, good or bad, always makes you better. And not only do they have experience, they know how to win there. Schedules are coming together for all of the teams and I am excited about what I am seeing on the preliminary drafts on Dyersburg’s schedule. I know I am being a tease, but it’s simply not my place to announce what another school is doing. With that said, I won’t go into specifics. However, I am excited about renewed home and away contracts for the non-district portion of the calendar. I think west Tennessee will have a lot of interest as well.
    • What does everyone have in the final 8? In no particular order. 1. Eagleville 2. Gordonsville 3. Greenback 4. Oakdale 5. South Pitt/ East Robertson-- not sure 6. Richland 7. Halls 8. Union City
    • They struggled to field a team last year. I don’t see them being much better?
