DB wins by 2 TDs in this game. Ive seen both teams in person. DB is playing much better football and it seems like OR has slowly given worse effort in this last half of the season. 

Can't disagree more with the effort part. These Cats have not always played well this year, but no question they have played their hearts out effort- wise.  No questioning the heart of this team, injuries, lack of depth in the line, execution and inexperience at qb have been the struggles this season.

That's a fair point they have had a ton of injuries. I take back what I said about effort.

Just got back from being out of the country...hate to miss the trip to DB...always love the atmosphere up there. I wasn't impressed with DB last year even though they beat us, but we weren't very good. We're more talented this year with more linemen and I still think DB is nothing like the DB of old, but neither are we...OR 21 - DB 17!  RWR!!!!

After watching the first half on YouTube, my observations are as follows:

-I'd prefer to watch Prep Radio and hear Clary

-As I thought, we're faster than DB

-Surprisingly, we're bigger than DB overall

-We have a better kicking game than DB

-So despite the score, I expect the better team to win...and that would be OR

-If DB hadn't fumbled on the five going in and was up 21-0 or 21-3, I'd feel differently

I applaud your optimism throughout the year. It’s been something to behold, but DB is clearly the better team from what I’ve seen so far. Big score there for OR though.

    • hey goat! how’s monterey looking this year?! 
    • several people actually. they said “snoball, do you know who railbird81 is on coacht?” I said, “never heard of her.” they said, “you ought to check it out they’re getting fired up on there like the old days.” well, you can imagine my disappointment when I came here expecting sharp, witty banter and all i found was more akin to toddlers slap fighting. and what looks like 1 guy/gal talking to themselves with multiple accounts.
    • Shopping? His family is loaded and he's 6'6 I'm pretty sure he could start anywhere in upper East TN,So no need to shop. Word is Witten got caught trying to work him out on campus and some 7 on 7 while playing athletics for Sullivan East. Word got around pretty quick and Someone turned them into TSSAA.
    • Quick update on Jacob -  Jacob celebrated his 16th birthday at Vanderbilt on Tuesday and has been in decent spirits.  His sense of humor has begun to show as he was visited by many friends.  He is swallowing a lot better now and has eaten some of his favorites (Chik-Fil-A and Five Guys).   He is getting prepared to head to Atlanta to the Shepherd Center first thing tomorrow morning.  His family has been waiting on insurance approval. In case you dont know the Shepherd Center it a world class facility and supposedly one of the best in the country for spinal injury rehab.  Praying for perfect results there. Considering the circumstances, Jacob is in decent spirits.  He has some reflexive movement in his legs which I think is probably a very positive sign.  Don't read too much into that just yet as there is no telling what the real prognosis is... just hopeful that is good thing.  I am really just happy that it seems like he has a punchers chance of getting something back.  He is a strong young man and very determined so I think he will fight as hard as he can in physical therapy while down in Atlanta. More than one of you has asked me about an address to send donations.  I know GoFundMe isn't for everyone.  If you want to go that route, you can make a check to "Blackman Wrestling Club" and we will pass anything received directly to the Kinderdines.   Jacob Kinderdine c/o Blackman Wrestling 4836 Trevino Court Murfreesboro, TN  37128 Also, want to thank everyone who has donated so far.  Jacobs dad will take a month off work and stay in Atlanta with him.  They need to learn how to take care of him and do home therapy work..... and surely Jacob will be glad his dad can be there.  All that could not happen without you all.  Depending on what happens, they will probably end up doing some home remodeling in order to accommodate Jacob at their home.  Thanks again. Here's a pic I lifted from Facebook of Jacob on Oxy talking to his Uncle.  LOL
