The real game this week worth talking about......
Clintwood versus Volunteer.
Last year 40-0. Ouch BUT THAT WAS LAST YEAR.
This has the making of a great game packed with incentive. There are only 3 to four games on Clintwood's schedule (PV, JIB, GC and Volunteer) that will have any suspense as to the outcome before they are played.
I'm no Greenwave fan, but I'll be pulling for the men in green this Friday Night. LPD then, LPD now, LPD Forever.
Re: The real game this week worth talking about......
Clintwood will destroy Volunteer. I don't expect a close game at all.
Re: The real game this week worth talking about......
If it's close, Clintwood is much, much, much weaker than I expect.
Re: The real game this week worth talking about......
LOL OK whatever
All I heard last season was how bad Vol was.....and after everything was said and done Vol was the best team we played all season.
I hope GC or PV desides to pick up Vol for an easy win next season [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smile.gif[/img]
Re: The real game this week worth talking about......
GC slaps em around every preseason like a red headed step child...they did last year too as a matter of fact. And, that was before GC gelled as well. Last year, Volunteer was a lay down game for Clintwood...the Wave was better than that.
Re: The real game this week worth talking about......
LOL not if you talk to the Vol fans who will tell you that in a game they would beat them by 3 TD. According the my VOL source Vol handed it to CG this preseason and GC saved face after VOL put in a bunch of kids that will never see the field for them (I did not see eather last years or this years scrimage so I can not tell you how eather went......And while we are at it a scrimage is a gloryifed practice I am not sure it is the best measuring stick of a team.......PV could drop TW and Pick them up should be an easy win for AA points [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smile.gif[/img]
Re: The real game this week worth talking about......
Honestly, year in year out PV plays the toughest regular season around...even with TW on there (Lebanon, Lee, Richlands, GC, TW). And, to hear Vol folks talk, you'd think they were DB..lol. I'm sure if they wanted some, they could schedule some SWVA powerhouses...but they don't.
Re: The real game this week worth talking about......
Volunteer had probably its second best team in school history last year. Maybe their best. 1998 is probably the only team that would be considered better IMO.
Re: The real game this week worth talking about......
That's funny. Volunteer is decent, but after spotting them 2 scores GC warmed up and had a pretty good scrimmage. But it was just a scrimmage.
Re: The real game this week worth talking about......
Last year the Volunteer scrimmage was 5-4. This year it was 5-3 in favor of GC.They scored once on our first team defense. It's also a long drive from Church Hill to Clintwood. There are alot of factors involved instead of "he said she said". I saw Clintwood three times last year, and I know what they have back. If Clintwood plays to their potential they'll destroy them. Take it for what it's worth.
Re: The real game this week worth talking about......
As long as we beat Gate City by 40 or so, it will satisfy me.

Thats just it the guy told me that after the 1st 2 scores they played everybody and then some.
Like I said I am not sure how much you can take away from the 1st scrimage of the season anyway
It is also possable that after last year I am being more guarded with my expectations LOL
Re: The real game this week worth talking about......
I was the last scrimmage between Vol and GC. Vol has some kids who can play. They have a pretty good QB and a couple of really good backs. If GC and Vol played tonight I think the game is a toss up after watching GC play tazwell a couple weeks back. But Vol will Clintwood all they want. Should be a pretty good game. I think Vol wins though.
Re: The real game this week worth talking about......
So by reading this post,I can assume that in your opinion, GC is better than Clintwood? Thankfully,we'll find out soon.
Re: The real game this week worth talking about......
i hope to see a good game between clintwood and vol tonight. Cwood starters havent played a full game yet in the first three so may come into a conditioning factor although coach mullins has always had a good conditioning program.

I do think GC is better than Clintwood. I think history would say that they are most years. Do I think Clintwood can beat GC? Yes. Playing at home, without mistakes and turnovers. Do I think GC can beat Clintwood at home? Yes. Without mistakes and turnovers they can. I think this is the best GC team in the last five or six years. So we will see. It will be a good game.
Clintwood hasn't played near the schedule GC has up to this point. Yea, They beat Volunteer which made them 0-3 on the year. Granted they are a 4A TN school. It was a good win. I thought that they would beat clintwood.
Re: The real game this week worth talking about......
Volunteer is now 1-2 instead of 0-3..they beat Cocke County last week
