From what i have heard up here in knoxvegas... should be plenty of recent alumni back in town for the tailgate and the game. Hope to see everyone again as Franklin rolls to one more victory from the underdog position. Go Rebs!

This is just a thought right now but if I can get directions and a friend to go with me I might make a special appearance at this game.

I have seen a lot of good picks on here. There is one thing though. Many of you said that Franklin will shut down the run for Germantown and force them to go to the air. Well the first part is harder said than done. Germantown runs the football really well, and if Franklin can stop their run, they aren't too bad in the air either. You won't see many deep routes, but they can throw when they need to. This should be a good game and I'll stick with my pick: Germantown 28 Franklin 17

I agree, Brothers. Everyone's saying "oh if you can force germantown to pass, it's all over". I said earlier that this was the most complete Germantown team I've ever seen, and that is because we actually CAN throw the ball this year. Brandon Patterson is a QB more than capable of going to the air when needed. He threw for over 100 last week against Bolton. And thats if you can stop the run in the first place, our o-line is absolutely huge.

I'm not worried about Germantown's size. We've handled big boys all year long. We've stopped a great running team in Brentwood here in the playoffs. We can stop the pass pretty darn good, too. We've got some great DBs including preseason all-state Brad Christiansen. No one has been terribly successful throwing the ball against us. We'll see though.

 

Goldenboy, PM me, I'll give ya directions. We'll be glad to have you! WesVols will be there. I'll be there. It'll be one big CoachT party as the Rebels DEMOLISH THE DEVILS and head on to state!

I find it amazing how much support Franklin is getting this year from teams like Gallatin, Oakland, and such. I'm very thankful and impressed, but why the support?

[FHSrebel27]

It's for the same reason that we supported Brentwood last year... and hopefully everyone supported Hendersonville the year before that and so on and so forth. Same reason I'm pulling for Riverdale. Gotta support the mid-state.

 

Tickets will go on sale at 4:30 PM Friday. No other tickets will be sold (unless Germantown has some down there). I had my question answered. The reserved section will be roped off to season ticket holders up 'till game time at which time any unused seats will be given up... but watch out, cause I get first dibs! And I'll fight ya for good seats and good company!

Don't forget Brentwood Academy! By the way, I was pleased to see some Franklin players sitting on the BA side last saturday night. I was gonna chat with them about the Germantown game, but kickoff was upon us.
