SheriffofRedRock Posted October 27, 2023 Report Share Posted October 27, 2023 Ya'll have played a tough non regionn schedule to help prepare you for the playoffs. To me yall coast to the semis and have a close game and then play the winner of West v Powell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SheriffofRedRock Posted October 27, 2023 Report Share Posted October 27, 2023 Don't know much about southwind or shelby co football. Yes I would assume a rematch with yall and beech in the quarters 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JacketLover Posted October 27, 2023 Report Share Posted October 27, 2023 (edited) Central came to Springfield a couple of years ago with a real good running back. We got on them pretty good, held down their running back, and then the lights went out early in the 4th quarter due to a transformer blowing. Once we got going again, they basically decided to almost start a fight since the game was out of hand. It got pretty choppy at the end. I know that doesn’t help much for this year , though.

That was one more weird game. Cold front came through in thr second half and temperature dropped 30 to 40 degrees Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MSURacer Posted October 28, 2023 Report Share Posted October 28, 2023 Can't get caught sleeping. Just like most Memphis teams, Central is dangerous and I am sure very athletic. HC better bring it each week to advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MSURacer Posted October 28, 2023 Report Share Posted October 28, 2023 @olddevil might appreciate this trivia, but there's actually some pretty cool history between Memphis Central and Henry County. HCHS's predecessor, Grove High, went undefeated in 1949 and had a pretty legendary season with very few close games. They completed their perfect season in a bowl game against Memphis Central, winning 21-20. I believe this was the only state championship the Grove Blue Devils ever claimed back during the era of polls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t even know if they awarded trophies in those days considering the championships were considered “mythical”. All I’ve ever seen is newspaper clippings and stories from old heads lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
