ReitzFan Posted October 12, 2023 Report Share Posted October 12, 2023 (edited) What are your thoughts on this weeks D2 games? I know many D 2 teams have a bye this week. For me, D2A has this weeks most interesting matchup as #5 Trinity Christian makes the trip west to Memphis to take on #4 FACS. TCA won last year's encounter 48-13 in Memphis. TCA is almost exactly 50/50 run v pass while FACS is around 75/25 towards the run. TCA has to be favored through the air. Running the ball, FACS #1 is a blazer who has rushed for 997 this year. TCA #1 rushed for over 300 as a freshman last year and has over 800 yards so far this year. FACS is hungry and is sporting their best record in years. TCA has a new coach who has instilled real physicality in the Lions. Playoff seeding is at stake and this looks to be a very entertaining game. Worthy Road Studios will have a free live stream of this game on Friday at 6:30 central time. The broadcast link is https://www.facebook.com/TrinityChristianLions . IN D2 AA, ECS travels to Jackson to take on USJ. The winner of this game will most likely finish 3rd and get a home first round playoff game. What other games are worthy of discussion?

ChatterBox99 Posted October 12, 2023 Report Share Posted October 12, 2023 i just think facs plays possibly the weakest schedule in the state. should be a good game though and I think close. im taking tca with their balance and ability to mix it up. this week doesnt have a lot of great matchups. LA at catlick CBHS at MUS is a big one locally, MUS is tough on defense and see them winning by 3 scores. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swagulator Posted October 12, 2023 Report Share Posted October 12, 2023 This game shouldn't be very close. FACS hasn't played anybody except JCS, and we all know how that went. If TCA doesn't win by 3 scores, TCA played a bad game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Outside of JCS and TCA, I'd agree with your assessment of the FACS schedule to date Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your fellers should win this week. Our folks have the long ride to TKA, our starting RB is still out, but should be able to pull out a win.

He missed the SP game and is resting this week after the bye. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldwiseone Posted October 14, 2023 Report Share Posted October 14, 2023 Anyone know what kind of injury Charlie Becker of Father Ryan has? He was not dressed for the McCallie game last night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TCA drops 56 on FACS The TCA/JCS game is looking like it will be potentially a great one. Can JCS slow down Thompkins and can TCA slow down Mosley???
