We are already at week 4. The season took forever to get here and now it’s ticking away at a rapid pace.
This week, the Midway Greenwaves (0-3) travel I-40 east to face the Rams of Grace Christian Academy (2-2). The Rams have unchallenged wins over Grace Baptist and Tellico Plains. GCA’s losses have come to Gibbs and neighbor CAK.
Midway played a solid first half against a talented Bledsoe County team but fell apart in the 2nd half. Last year, Grace jumped all over Midway 35-0 in the Emerald Forest.
Can the Waves put together a complete game? I think so…but let’s hear what the panel has to say. Lady, gentlemen and Kyle…make your picks.
Barry Boo Narramore:
Any week now the Green is capable of putting two halves together and make a whole! Risner and Collins ran the ball well last week, and the Green has moved the ball. Seems to me the defense has improved. Just got to hang in there for 4 quarters. This team is good enough to win ballgames and I think this is their week. Let’s Go Greenwaves!!!!!
Amber Bock Johnson:
Sounds like the Waves are working up to their first win, and it could be this week if they can play a complete ballgame. If I was Craig, I think I’d change it up and not even let the boys set foot in the locker room at half time. The Waves seem to be going ice cold in the second half; stay loose boys….I’m picking you this week. The boys in green are playing too hard to fall apart. Go Big Green!
Ralton Mule Emory:
Let’s flip the script…let’s start slow, let them get their confidence up, and blow past them in the second half. That would totally surprise the Rams, aka Mountain Goats. 🙂 I mean Waves and Ducks are similar mascots right?
Don’t see it happening and I hate that I’m predicting another loss. I hope I’m wrong and it may be a tighter contest then most people think.
Mountain Goats 35, Greenwave 24
Randy Zipper Rose:
It’s time for a W and this week is the time to get it done. I think the Greenwave will be ready. Give me Midway.
Michael Corso Rose:
Unfortunately the difficult start to the season will continue this week. I will take Grace.
Kyle Cat-Nip Canup:
Well I hate that I was wrong last week; once again tied up at the half. Midway is due a win BIG time and what better time to do it against the only team I’ve ever disliked so much since Florida. I would love to see midway beat GCA and turn things around. I picked against Midway last week but I think this week Midway will surprise us all and bring home the win from those mamby-pamby Grace kids. Sorry to speak so ill of them but man do I hate Grace. Midway in a close upset this Friday night.
