Lol you are correct! I will be wrong many times again. Congrats to Rebels they are better than expected but the Mustangs couldn’t have played worse. I think everyone may be inflating how good McKenzie really is at this point. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedRebelman Posted August 21, 2023 Report Share Posted August 21, 2023 (edited) Naw, were not as good as last year talent wise. However we will work hard for what we get. I did expect to beat Huntingdon, I was probably one of the few posters that did.

Munford 1-0 30-13 W over Covington T4. Haywood 1-0 28-21 W over PURE Youth Academy T4. Riverside 0-1 35-14 L to Collierville 6. Hardin Co. 1-0 48-12 W over Memphis Business Academy 7. McKenzie 1-0 28-12 W over the Stanks 8. USJ 1-0 W 14-7 over Peabody 9. Union City 0-1 40-6 L to Ensworth 10. Covington 0-1 30-13 L to Munford Outside Looking In- Dresden 1-0, Crockett Co. 1-0, Huntingdung 0-1, Milan 1-0, South Gibson 0-1, JCS 1-0 What do you folks think?? Should learn a lot about the Tigers Friday night with Giles County coming to town. I think will be a good measuring stick for where this team is at. I’m not gonna get to high on them till I see how this game shakes out. HC looked pretty good for the most part in game one against a week opponent. Moved the ball well on the ground and through the air. Defense looked good other than a couple of breakdowns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep in mind that they were without their starting QB as well as #2 QB Friday night. Not to mention their QB from last year has transferred. So in a way, they were playing with the #4 QB. I would say this is odd for the 1st game of the season. I do however believe that this year's Haywood squad is not going to be the same as the past several years.

Kublah Posted August 21, 2023 Report Share Posted August 21, 2023 Good list BPM. I would go ahead and drop Haywood way down and flip USJ and Union City, but I get why you haven’t. The latter will get sorted out this week anyway. Can’t quite throw them in the honorable mention after a loss, but I think Peabody will make some noise before this season is over with. They have size, speed and are well-coached. The cupboard is not bare in Trenton. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Congrats to Rebels they are better than expected but the Mustangs couldn’t have played worse. I think everyone may be inflating how good McKenzie really is at this point. Mustanks actually could have played worse. It is my opinion that there isn't any inflating going on but rather an underestimating of how good a coach that Comer is. You don't accidentally average 8.5 wins a season for 23 seasons. He will hit 200 wins this season and has consistently adapted his offensive and defensive systems based on the strengths of his players and not forced them into some antiquated offense from the early 1900's. Swenson won't get 200, Mansfield didn't either, and even the great Paul Ward fell short. Looks like Comer and the Rebs were just better prepared for the game Friday night than Swenson and the ponies. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
