Games I would love to see this week
FPD-MDS
Now one would think that coming off an emotional roller coaster if a win against a team they barely ever beat, FPD would be sky high and ready to play its best football game of the year. However, I am not so sure that the MDS game will not be the same kind of dog fight that the Tattnall game was. The question is can FPD put up that type of performance against a very good Mount de Sales team who is basically rested.
I am just not so sure and not so confident as to say the Cavaliers will be primed for an upset. Or FPD could finally become the team that everyone expects them to be and wins easily.
I will bet on the first but wont say the upset happens.


Jones County- Stockbridge
Most folks that read my blog don't care too much about this game but it is the game I am covering and both teams are ranked highly and both are undefeated. One team scores a million points and one team doesn't allow anything. This is a classic match-up and I have no idea who will win.


Tattnall-Stratford
Weaknesses were exposed last week against FPD but that does not mean that Tattnall is not capable of pulling of this upset. Yes it would be an upset because Stratford is THE best team in Macon this year and maybe not just the best private school. I think they may beat Howard and that is a game I would love to see.
I will say that Tattnall just does not have that many skill players and could not handle the passing game of FPD. Well Stratford does not and will not throw. They haven't had to. So that puts this game into a different perspective. Can Tattnall score against Stratford ?  Can Stratford pound Tattnall. Who gives way first ?
That's another tough question


Viewing the Tattnall-FPD game
Well this was a great great game and I enjoyed watching it. Either team could have won it but honestly FPD should have won by two touchdowns. Jamal Marshall had a breakout game but honestly, I have heard from more than one person that he fumbled twice before he got balls into the end zone that should have been touchbacks. Instead both turned into touchdowns.
One thing you cannot question is Tattnalls will to win. They battle and battle til they are exhausted and had FPD on the ropes, but all of their backs were limping around by the end of the game. They will needs every bit of their trainers expertise to have them healthy and ready to go this Friday night.
But you know what, I fully expect them to give Stratford a huge challenge.
FPD remains a mystery. They have a very talented team but the biggest win they have had in recent years is this win over Tattnall. With their talent they should have more. Lets hope that they build on this win and make a run in the state playoffs.
