I can’t take much from Lookout Valley game. South Pitt looks to have a pretty good offense. Defense might get whipped in this one though and keep them off the field. Murphy is known to be extremely physical in the run game. If South Pitt can hit some big plays in passing they can get the W but that’s a big IF. With a new QB and this early in the season I will pick the team with the power run game. If this one was toward the end I would pick the Pirates. Murphy by 7. I’m just keeping it real

You have been off your game this year.  Case in point your prediction of Jasper-Sequatchie and Jasper-Tyner games.  Just keeping it real.

I wish we could have played in Murphy last year. I was looking forward to the trip.

I know you had to replace the North Carolina version of Gary Rankin, but Watson was coaching alongside him for a long time. I'd say he's more than up to the task.

Good luck to you guys on Friday and safe travels. 

I was looking forward to it as well.  I have family in Northeast Georgia and we were going to role into Murphy.

Those skill players didn’t help against Chattanooga Charter Christian. 

CCS is on another level right now. Can’t gauge our skill players off of CCS. We won’t see guys like that anywhere in the playoffs and I don’t think Murphy has a Boo Carter either.

I am really looking forward to this ball game since Murphy is just right across the border from us here in copper pan and the pirates are in the region. Everything I’ve heard this Murphy team isn’t like some of the past Bulldogs teams, I wish the game would’ve happened last year would’ve been a better matchup. As for my prediction, I say Murphy still plays tough but the Pirates break away and win 35-14. Pirates have too much speed!!

I checked Murphy out on their hudl deal today. Go look at their highlights. I believe the young Pirate team has their hands full in this one. They have some REALLY big physically looking youngsters.

This is the game I’ve been waiting for. Can’t wait…

Me too piratetom. I like seeing how we stack up compared to other states top smaller programs. I would like to see us schedule a North Alabama school ( outside NJ )  or even one from Georgia.

I looked up some highlights. They definitely are much bigger. I hope we get to see  a competitive game and it doesn’t turn out like two weeks ago.

We tried Georgia and lost to those female kickers from Dade County.

No way it turns out like two weeks ago!! I know y’all are trying not to get too overconfident but that’s not going to happen.
