William Blount hosts Science Hill

Go Govs! Top the Toppers!

I believe Science Hill will win this game. It don't mean I want them to though. Good luck Governors.

Science Hill will win this one. Bill Blount got their only region win that they will get. The next and last win will be Union County. Going from 0-10 to 5-5 is a great turnaround though.

Science Hill is athletic and pretty good on defense. WB hasn’t stopped anyone. The Hilltoppers will win this one by 10+

West Ridge isn't very good and they put up 49 on WB. Stacy Carter likes to show off. I think it will be something like 65- 14

The Govs come back to reality in the coming weeks with SH, DB, and JC on the schedule. Honestly, though, I don’t blame them for scheduling those cupcake teams, especially when they didn’t even win 1 single game last season. Those boys needed something to boost their morale, which I’m sure was deep down in the pits after last season.

I don’t blame them either. However, people should understand that beating bad teams doesn’t make your team good.

Yeah, I get that, too. BUT, on the other hand, I don’t blame GF, and the BarberShop for getting a little excited. I would’ve too if The Ridge had of been that bad the season before and reeled off a few wins, no matter how bad the opposition was we played.

Speaking of the Cats, what happened at MC?

A combination of McMinn having a really good D, bad misfortune, 2 dropped wide open TD passes, Rang getting ejected in the 3rd quarter, and a plethora of other things, not to mention some VERY questionable calls, and I’m definitely not one to ever complain about refereeing, but anytime we had a good play…….flag. Was just one of those nights man. With all that said, they deserve credit for beating us. Defense definitely played well enough to win, but the O was just lethargic all night and could never get in a rhythm. Hopefully we rebound Friday night.

Athens officials can see a game different for sure

That has always been the word about it down there, and I’ve been there a number of times to watch OR play. Like I said, I’m not one to complain about that stuff usually, but it was pretty bad, I will say that. I know the MC fans don’t like to hear that, but usually where there’s smoke, there’s a little bit of fire there. It has a reputation. Like they say, with every stereotype, there’s some amount of truth to them. I give them all the credit, though, they’re a tough bunch and will hit you HARD. They don’t miss many tackles. Very well coached defense, for sure. I give them props.
