Not a true passer by any means, but can flat scramble and run. Its the great equalizer and why he is matchup proof Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So here is the Mckenzie perspective. We have played Moore County the past 2 years so nobody has to tell us how good they are we know what we are walking into come this Friday night. If you go back and and read my post from earlier in the year I had Moore County as the favorite coming out the west before the season even started while everyone else was picking UC ( and UC still may make it all the way.) We are the underdog on the road against a team that has plenty of motivation to want to take us out to the wood shed. There are numerous ways this game can play out and Mckenzie winning is definitely one of those. I think back to a very young Rebel team in 2020 who they said had no shot in a 2A quarterfinal on the road @ Peabody and the Rebels took the eventual state champs to double overtime. We have the most respect for this Moore Co team and coaching staff. Our boys will show up and give them all we got and let the chips fall where they may. If we come up short we will tip our cap and move on. If we come out on the winning side the Rebels will be ready for another big test the following week. Hoping both teams come out of this one healthy and 100% moving forward. Appreciate the compliment. There is just no sense in getting into a peeing contest with anyone over high school football. Funny you mention that Peabody game. I was thinking about that game the other day in comparison to this one. On paper, McKenzie should not have been in that game from the jump but we were. And yes, I have said many many times, the road to Chattanooga goes through Lynchburg. Anyone with half a brain cell could see that coming last year. So I echo what you say. If we win, I will be humble, gracious, and happy. I will congratulate Moore Co on a fantastic season, and move on to the next week. If we lose, I will announce our Seniors for the last time, congratluate Moore Co, and make plans to possibly go over to Dresden/UC the next Friday to watch a great ballgame. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've done radio in the past and it's tough when you aren't in the booth. I tuned in for one of y'all's games last year. You do a great job. Good luck if this 70% chance of rain shows up. That equipment isn't cheap! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure how old you are but a similar situation happened to a favored Moore Co squad in the semifinals in 96. The elements slowed down a dominate line and 3 power backs. Lost 7-6 to St. Benedict. The weather can be a cruel mistress. Hopefully we see a clean game and it doesn't get sloppy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come over and say, "Hi" on Friday. Actually, I invite all T posters to come say hello. I enjoy putting a face with a "made up" name. LOL.

Weather was just 1/2 the issue, St. Benedict literally watered the field prior to the monsoon it was a literal hog pen! Don't expect those conditions Fri Night!

If I recall correctly they went on to face S Pitt and got hammered so karma got em. I can guarantee it could rain 40 days and 40 nights and the field in Lynchburg wouldn't be that bad lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
