Tellico Plains Bears (1-4) visit SOR tonight. Midway got win #2 last week against Jellico. Win #3 on Friday? Let’s ask the panel.
Steven Sears:
This will be a close game when the Tellico Plains bears come to the Emerald forest on Friday. Midway has a good chance to get their season back on track with a win this week. It will come down to who wants it more. I like Midway in this week’s matchup. They have won 2 out of their last 3, and I think they will keep the momentum going this week against the Bears. I’m taking Midway 30-26 over Tellico Plains.
Ralton Emory:
The 275 state-ranked Teddy Bears come down the mountain and will be bringing a tough team with them. Coming off a successful home field win last week, can the Waves take that next step? This one is a true toss up and a tough one to call.
As much as I hate to say it, I believe the Gummy Bears will have just enough to slip past the Waves in a close battle.
Waves 12, Teddy-Gummy Bears 18
Barry Narramore:
Big win for the green last week against Jellico! Lyle looked good at QB and the line pushed ‘em off the line all night. Refs caught us on a couple of retaliation plays that shouldn’t have come our way. But as they say they always catch the return punch. Anyway I thought the Green played well last Friday and I look for an even better performance this week! I’ll take the SOR boys by 4 points!!!!!
Kyle Canup:
Well Tellico has played some tough teams prior to getting their first win against a low Harriman team. This should be a good matchup between Midway and Tellico and could be a big win for the Waves but it could be tougher than some think. I’m having a tough time with this one and hopefully the Waves get their first District win. Unfortunately, I see the bears coming out on top Friday night in a close one.
Tony Clower:
I am confident the Green Wave have gotten a good taste of victory last week and will send the Bears back to the mountain with a loss. I’ll take the Green Wave 16-14.
Amber Johnson:
This will be a close match-up. I think Midway will have a slight edge over the Tellico Plains (not to be confused by the Tellico Village) Bears at home this Friday.
