I just looked on there and it's showing the non region games being Brighton, Riverdale, Brentwood, Ridgeway, and Northeast. If that's right sounds like a fun schedule. 

Kinda surprised Haywood didn’t make it back onto the schedule. Though it seems both sides enjoy having that as a preseason matchup.

Yeah we have Greenbrier, Clarksville, Centennial, Station Camp, and Gallatin...

Nice! A couple of really interesting matchups there. How much are y'all losing on defense? That was a good group!

Sort of like when they used to scrimmage Milan every year. I still wish Haywood and HC would renew the series. It would be THE marquee game in West TN most years. 
 

But that’s a tough schedule already. Riverdale and Brentwood on top of their big 3 region opponents. Yikes.

I know on the TSSAA website it had like your 3rd game at home against Riverdale, if true that should be fun!

The Riverdale head coach is a former HC player.

We are losing at least half of them that started, there are some that played a lot coming back, we will see how it goes...

defense will still be very athletic. But we have huge holes to fill all over the field.

Same, holes everywhere we have to fill as well. I think Beech is in the same boat as well. Will be an interesting season. I have no idea what to expect from our team this coming season and I can't remember the last time I could say that.

Agreed completely, but I like how the schedule shakes out overall. It's a pretty good mix of competition. Brighton and Ridgeway should provide a taste of the Memphis football that we would see in the playoffs. I actually like that we are keeping a Clarksville school on the schedule, especially with it being a longtime region foe like Northeast. Brentwood and Riverdale are schedule enhancers. Those are "iron sharpens iron" kind of games. Beech, Hendersonville, and Springfield speak for themselves. Depending on how long this region stays together, those three and us should be a pretty consistent quartet of playoff teams, no disrespect to Portland or Hunters Lane.
