West Ridge might be better this year than last year, however I do not see a win over the Indians or SH. 

I’m a DB lifer but I will root for West Ridge in every other game they play. I wanna get down there and watch a few games. I’ve known their QB since he was a youngin and I wanna see him excel.

There are potential difference makers out there just didn’t get to see it too much tonight. Everyone knows Simpson can break one loose at anytime and Franklin is a tough runner. I think Taylor and Pruitt are the X factors. I like Begley too. 4 Carswell was definitely the standout on D but I think 11 12 and 3 played fairly well in the 2nd half at least. Hurd was in his first start at QB. I believe he’s above average or he wouldn’t be starting. I seen him drop a few passes in great spots. Can throw it 40+ accurately. Catch just wasn’t always made. DB will have a rough start to the year but I expect them to finish strong as these inexperienced kids get more reps. You are right the lines are kinda weak right now though. 

40 yards?  Is this middle school?   Lol

Colored me surprised on this one. Holier Than Thou Courtney got an unlikely win against Pal’s Boys.

You guys put up 40 last week, we dropped a goose-egg.      How do you see this week's matchup shaking out?       Boone has a good offense in between the 20's.      Defense has their moments but very poor tackling on several critical plays.            Hate to say it but until Boone can show they can score I'm going West Ridge 14-0.     Does your wolf mascot travel to away games?    Sure hope so, I enjoyed seeing him last year at your place

I certainly don't want to hijack DB's thread but to answer your question. Volunteer is NOT Boone. It was the first game and I truly don't know what to think. There were mistakes and missed assignments but I suspect most every fan saw "rust" with there team in terms of tackling etc. and each team should improve this week. The Wolves are better than last year. I just have my doubts. Hope I'm wrong. I will say Boone 21-12 just to throw a score out there. Not sure if the Wolf travels. I'm not very helpful with information am I? LOL. Hope for an injury free game!

Please show me a middle schooler in this area throwing 40 yard dimes. Please. Cause I’ve watched Crockett middle Robinson and sevier. It’s not there. Plus middle school uses a smaller ball. An accurate 40+ yard pass is good for high school. Plus everyone knows DB is a ground and pound team. So I was stating reasons as to why they should throw it downfield more often. Please actually respond thoughtfully and not just be a smarty pants lol.

If you're referring to Oak Ridge, they don't play DB this year

I suspect he meant West Ridge (new 6A school in the Tri-cities)
