FHS_Admiral Posted August 21, 2023 Report Share Posted August 21, 2023 Does anyone have a good feel for how strong Powell might be this year? Can the Admirals hang with them? Hoping the Ads can win another close one at home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strengths would be OL with 2 strong backs. Sound on defense, really good on offense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HTV Posted August 21, 2023 Report Share Posted August 21, 2023 Powell's QB is a legit 2 way threat. Reminds me a lot of Dustin McPhetridge, who was the QB in the Mobley days and was a thousand yard rusher, himself. Matt appears to be going back to the offensive scheme he used in that era. Powell's DL is really good, as well. Soles is the real deal. And Farragut always seems to play well against Powell. Should be a great football game Friday. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What we saw against AC looked a lot like those early Matt Lowe teams. #2 did a great job of carrying out those reads in Week 1. Should be an entertaining game!

92Dragon Posted August 21, 2023 Report Share Posted August 21, 2023 I didn't think Farragut would beat DB but they found a way to win. That's what a well coached team does I'm picking Farragut in another close one Farragut 17 Powell 14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hence, the win against the defending state champions last Friday night. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This should be a good game, but I'm picking Farragut which should make you happy bc I picked DB last week and they lost. Hence my picking Farragut means Powell will probably win. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fandom101 Posted August 21, 2023 Report Share Posted August 21, 2023 I like Powell in this one. They seem to have all the pieces to make a run at another State title. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know we're only a week in, but that definitely isn't the same AC team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
footballknox Posted August 21, 2023 Report Share Posted August 21, 2023 I agree that it definitely is not the same AC team as last year. However, I do believe that Powell is underestimated by some this year. Many hate him, but Lowe does not make it as far as he does each year without being a good coach.

A little too much strength and depth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
