I hope we meet twice. And Milan gets put out first round 

R5 is pretty weak this year tho I haven’t seen Loretto yet but they will definitely beat the 4 seed in R6. That’s the only win I see R5 getting in the playoffs so far

Where are all the fans of the #1 team in 2a at?

I like how Riverside beat the Mustangs in the playoffs last year and all of a sudden this is a "rivalry." 

No disrespect Panthers, but I don't think many Huntingdon fans consider this a "Rivalry" yet. Milan, obviously. McKenzie, for sure. Camden even, yeah probably. Still seems way too one-sided to be considered a true rivalry yet, imo.

You know y’all ain’t the team you were last year. Huntingdon is a more complete team than they were last year. 

And we have a young team.

You’re right. Teams haven't met every year. But over the last 20 years they have played 5-6 times. Huntingdon has won all but 1. 1 win doesn’t make a rivalry. Very lopsided.

A friend of mine from Huntingdon said this about playing RHS over the years, "We don't lose to Riverside, it just doesn't happen." Over the years Riverside has been a 4-6 to 6-4 team. But that's not true anymore. RHS is one of the best teams in 2A football now, even if the bluebloods like Huntingdon don't like it. There were a lot of people in West TN who really applauded Riverside knocking Huntingdon out of the playoffs last year. I hope it stays  a clean competitive game, and my RiverRats can keep giving the traditional power programs heck -  the Huntingdons and Lexingtons, and Milans.

All of a sudden the Mustangs are favored to beat the Panthers based on the victory at Milan. That game ain't got nothing to do with the Riverside - Huntingdon battle. These are two talented tough nosed teams going head to head. I think the Mustangs can beat the Panthers but can and doing it are two different things.
