Man, he will be missed. He laid a Clinton kid out in the back of the EZ near the end of the game. Kid laid there for about 5 minutes. Thankfully he was alright, but it was a really hard hit.

AC by 3 tds.  Clinton is not good on D.  Way too undisciplined.  Lack of a kicking game is a killer as well.

Roger that, I’ll let ‘em know. Hopefully he doesn’t shake out of his penny loafer’s when I mention AC and sexy Davey.

I would just like to see Clinton's defense force a 3 & out against AC Thursday night.

They have not been as good on defense ever since they moved 8 to the middle.  He is still making a dozen tackles per game, but they are 8-12 yards down the field.  He was way more disruptive early in the year when he was playing outside where he could rush or cover and hold down the edge.  He's kind of in no mans land playing off the ball in the middle.  Just my opinion, I know others will disagree.

The 2 main ingredients to having a successful season, Clinton is missing both. You have to have a good defense and you have to be able to run the ball consistently.

yeah, I would agree 92.  Excluding Union Co.  How many punts do you think they have forced this year? Definitely hard to win giving up 40 a game while scoring only 18 a game.

It’s a Clinton vs AC week and we haven’t heard from ol Hickory himself? The real question is where will Mavs Maximus sit ?! 

[pdover1776]

I say the Mavs win big by at least 30.  AC isn't even close to as dominant as last year but Clinton is still Clinton.  Loads of talent that can't get the job done because of the mediocre coaching staff that can't elevate the talent.  Mavs 47 Clinton 13 #hookem #moreyearsofthosetears

Mavs Rush and proceed with caution. I think Mavs Israel Small will have a good game.

Something scares me about this game. But I think this one will come down to 4th qt. AC 28 Clinton 27…

I hope not lol. But Clinton has some speed. Anything is Possible I didn't see OR having that much trouble with Clinton and that was based on my opinion when Clinton played West. Different team scheme seem to play out rather than looking on paper. However the Ariel attack behind Moog should be too much mix for Clinton. And frankly the Mavs aren't the Mavs in the Powell game. But anything is possible and that to me is why Highschool football is much more than predictable NFL. Lol
