I really wish that they would decide and make a public announcement so all of us JC people can make the trip to J. Fred to cheer for our pats on Thursday if need be.

I'm not gonna make a prediction on this game. I'm just gonna talk about it. :D This DB is obviously one of the best ever to grace J. Fred. With the Duran and Lamon connection, they are probably the toughest team in the state... (not sure about Riverdale)... anywho... The offense for DB is always always strong and their defensive front seven is like trying to push a block wall. When I was playing DB also like to run a little 2 pop trap... or full back up the middle... Do they still use that play because it seemed to work for them really well?

JC's team this year was a question mark but after the first game, they have come out swinging. Their defensive front 7 is probably among the best in the state, but the secondary leaves a lot to be desired. Maybe they can get it together.... I don't know though... I think the days of DB blowing out JC are over though and this should be a very tough game for both sides.

Someone from Dobbins-Bennett called coach Euverard today asking if they could play on thursday night instead of friday night because the possibility of very heavy rain. Coach Euverard said he would not do that to his players, having to travel to and from Kingsport, then have to get up the next morning to go to school. Coach Euverard said " See you friday night".

Just a couple of items to consider...

 

The rain we are talking about associated with this hurricane is not your normal rain - the weather folks are talking about 8-12 inches of rain (that is a foot of rain for you non-meteorologists)...that would not allow the opportunity to even play on Friday or Saturday...and yes, the UT - Fla game may very well be effected to from a rescheduling situation...if we get what North Carolina got a couple of weeks ago, then we have major concerns and a discussion to determine the day to play sporting events becomes extremely minor...

 

...moving the game would not be done to attempt to create an advantage, it would be done because the forecasters are calling for a foot of rain with accompanying high winds and moving it would be the only way to get the game played (Thursday is predicted to already have conditions not conducive to outdoor activities)...the potential for a Woody Hayes style team vs. a St Louis Rams style team would still be a moot point.

 

The outer bands from Ivan are packing 124 mph winds with 160 mph gusts...these outer bands are 200 miles beyond the eye of the storm, which is presently being predicted to pass over the Tri-Cities. Yes, I know it will have diminished in strength by the time it gets here, but , just harken back to Raleigh a couple of weeks ago...flooding, schools closing for multiple days, businesses closed...this isn't a situation of a few evening showers and thundershowers...

 

Jefferson County was supposed to defeat the Indians last year (JPATS5 said that since the JC Pats beat the Indians when last years seniors were freshmen, they would win the game, big) with Jennings, Houston, Clement, and Brown...This year there is a new coach in town (a truly outstanding coach) and a lot of team unity and this should be a real good Big East match-up...but, it is not scheduled to be a swim meet.

 

The Indians will not take Jeff County for granted, period...that doesn't mean Jeff County can't win, it just means they won't win because the Indians overlooked them.
