Lake County at Haywood - Thursday night

[stacmot]

I’ve seen various predictions that favor Haywood anywhere between 28 to 35 points.  Tomcats, it is you, not the prognosticators, who play the game on the field. 

Those predictions will only motivate Lake County.  The Falcons will give it all they’ve got from beginning to end  Don’t get complacent Cats.  Stay focused and disciplined!

Pretty impressive to have not lost a single region game

Last region loss was 2018 against Dyersburg. From 2015 to current we’ve lost 1 region game in 7 years

THAT is a successful football program.

Very successful football program. Haywood County is the best program in West Tennessee. I hope they get that gold ball. That is all they like.

Thanks!  I can't help but be reminded of a thread in the 1A-2A forum back in the summer.  Although it's not my opinion, the general consensus was Haywood does not rank within the top five programs in West Tennessee because Haywood does not have that gold ball. 

Lake County has a great program and y'all have three state championship trophies to prove it. Good luck tonight.  I'm praying for a clean injury-free game and safe travels for all.

Dear 8lb 6oz baby Jesus 

Dont let us get hurt

Amen

Puckett has zero intentions on running it up. He will be classy if he has any input. LC has his 19 staff back here…Canada Short and Damio are on that sideline

Haywood played  that 2018 game minus several key players due to injury, but a healthy Tomcat team avenged that loss in the state quarterfinals by a score of 48-14.

Glad I wasn’t in that thread, I’m sure I would have got a little aggravated. JCS has a gold ball so I guess they have a better program. Milan has several gold balls, and even though they tried running with the big boys in 4a having almost no success while just trying to avoid Alcoa, has a better program. Lake county has a gold ball, guess we better not even show up tonight.

That thread definitely aggravated me.  In terms of recent success and consistency,  I don't think anybody (gold ball or not) can argue against Haywood being one of the most successful programs in rural West Tennessee over the past 6 or 7 years.
