The Ridge @ Campbell County

[STILLNUM1]

We cant get behind the sticks on offense.CC will be ready to play and wont make it easy for us.We got to go take it from them.I have learned over the years to never take anybody for granted when you dont have a great offense.If CC can figure how to stop the Oak Ridge run or force a few turnovers they can easily win this game.I would really love to see the OaK Ridge offense that is clicking and not so out of sync trying to get a play off.Lets show up big and pack that place out.RWR

I agree that you can't ever take anyone for granted BUT Camplbell County has allowed an average of 39 points per game this season...Clinton scored 48 on them, so CC figure out how to stop ANYTHING OR does...they couldn't stop Heritage, Lenoir City, or Clinton , so they won't stop OR. If the OR offense doesn't click against CC just  like they did against Karns, then that will be a HUGE problem that SweetScience will have a hard time blaming on Gaddis, or as he likes to say...the previous staff.

you mean the one that went 2-9 and had little to no weight training program?  How could they possibly have a hand in this?

He’s obviously looking for an argument, but unfortunately for him, I’m not the least bit interested in engaging.

Yeah I know, my point was this group didn't exactly inherit a great situation and they had these skill guys too.  I think we are getting better.  And as healthy as we've been all year.  I think we should be able to make a little run if we can get by CC and get back to the ship.

We’ve made huge strides since last season, agreed. We can actually run the ball now without our running backs getting blasted a split second after they touch the ball.

CC does enough on offense to keep this game close. If OR can limit the passing game then they will win. CC is awful on defense. We could honestly watch a game where one team throws the ball every play and the other team runs that ball every play. I look for this to be a close game until the 4th quarter.

Wildcats travel up the hill to Campbell County and a must win to cinch a second round playoff spot at home 1st Round against the Rhea County Golden Eagles, who finish second to the Chunky Cherokees from McMinn County in the old WIng T Region, Similar to the Karns game, the Wildcat offense needs to score points, maybe a lot of them to out distance the Cougars. Expect the tricks from the Cougars like onside kicks and 4th down going to gain extra possessions, The visors really have a good scheme on offense each year, have to be alert on defense Wildcats. Need to win this or face a long trip to Walker Valley,

CC can throw it around, and they are always well coached. But their defense is just as porous as Karns. As long as OR doesn't repeatedly shoot themselves in the foot, they should be fine.

Seems near impossible for this OR team for some reason

 I predict a OR win around 31-28.
