I don't believe WV has seen a defense as good as West since maybe Bradley Central. I'll be surprised if West doesn't win this game comfortably.

I say West 31  Walker Valley PTA 10

I feel you guys should have won this had you not turned the ball over. 4 is a lot to overcome even with the last one being at the very end.  Thats one thing West needs to do this week and thats protect the ball. Luckily the two they had against Powell didnt hurt them worse than prevent scoring opportunities.

Go Rebels

They only had 3. One was an interception on 4th down (which actually gave WV worse field position), one was a fumble, and the other was the last play after the onside kick. Honestly, WV could have won by more. Clinton only forced one punt all night. They did do a great job of stopping WV inside the 10, as they only gave up 3 points on 3 drives.

Thanks for the clarification as i was going off of highlights and Chattanooga paper box score and article.

Hope you are right but let's get past wv first and the Page team is loaded and if they get past sw it will be 3rd time in a row in title game

 

 

 

In this game, I will take the Rebels at home by a trickle.  Go Rebs!

Walker Mustangs will not be able to win this game over West Rebels. It will not happen. I guarantee it. I am Captain Guru and I approve this message.

Walker Valley has had a great year, good offense and tough defense. But I see too much West speed for them. I’ll go West-28 WV-14

After watching West dismantle Powell, I’ve got to go with the Rebels. Walker Valley at 11-2 is a good team, but I think West probably has too many athletes. West 28-10

How is West’s pass defense? Only way WV wins is if they can successfully throw the ball. Key will be pass protection.

I haven't seen em live, but on tv, the back end looks solid, the front end looks amazing, and they have linebackers that can cover well too.

 

Close to 60 TFLs and 30 sacks.  Most teams don't get the opportunity to throw too much.

Yep, qb better get rid of it quick, and he's still going to get hit all night.  The secondary is fully healthy and extremely athletic.  I've got West by a couple trickles in this one.

I would say the weakest link in the West defense.

so the "weak link" is responsible for 3 of the 5 points allowed in the postseason?  Right now their defense this year looks better than last year's d.
