PercyPeabody Posted September 7, 2023 Report Share Posted September 7, 2023 Surprised there's not much chat about this game. Big region contest. Will the TulCats run away with it, or will the Runnin' Rebs finally put it all together to get their first win of the season? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were down 27-7 to East Hamilton last week, and came back and tied only to fall 41-34 late. Tullahoma came back from a 20-7 deficit in the fourth quarter to win 28-20. I will say Tullahoma by 7, but it could go either way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScottShasteen Posted September 7, 2023 Report Share Posted September 7, 2023 This is the first meeting between these teams in two years. In the previous eight matchups each team has won four times. These are always fun games and there should be 5,000+ in Wilkins Stadium Friday night. If you are inside the stadium, you can listen to the live broadcast, without delay, on 87.9 FM. Around the world listen on https://www.youtube.com/@TUALightTube. 'Cats -9.5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'Cats -9.5 I'll be out of state or I'd be one of the ones at Wilkins Fri night so LightTube it is. I think it'll be close so if you are giving 9.5, I'll take the Rebels and the points. Hope both teams come in relatively healthy and stay that way. May the battle for the region crown begin! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should be a heck of a ball game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REBELFAN70 Posted September 7, 2023 Report Share Posted September 7, 2023 We had several kids out last week with illness, hoping we bring a healthy crew this Friday to Tullahoma, as always expecting a good game! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthernTNguy Posted September 7, 2023 Report Share Posted September 7, 2023 Glad to see this rivalry renewed. Some people have posted over and over again how weak this region is. Weak region or not, I'll take it any day I say the TSSAA got it right for once. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottShasteen Posted September 8, 2023 Report Share Posted September 8, 2023 The last time these teams played was 2020, with the Cats winning 41-7. John Olive was 20-8 against the Rebels. The previous eight games have been split 4-4. Tullahoma's defense will thwart the Rebel attack. The Wildcats have owned the fourth quarter in their last two games, with the defense forcing turnovers in both. Offensively, the Cats found their stride late against Rockvale, but when they found it they were unstoppable. Special teams leans heavily on the Tullahoma side. Cats -9.5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wornoutwildcat Posted September 8, 2023 Report Share Posted September 8, 2023 For the rebels to pull this one out they have to control the clock and “run da bawl”. I think the cats have the edge in this one but it is going to be close and take till the last set of downs to decide it. Tullahoma special teams may just be the difference tonight.
