who wins the rematch from last years first round.

Cooper can win if Ludwig plays well and they can stop the run. Anderson County is a very good team though.

It's one of those 1/4 games that wouldn't stun me if 4 won.

This is a tough one. I of course hope Cooper comes ready to play hard and beliefves in themselves and gets the W to advance. I hope they go back to what made their offense tough to stop ealrier in the year. When they get a certain player involved early right off the bat he seems to gain more and more confidence and Ludwig has his best games. I don't know enough about AC's offense this year to take a guesws at what will happen. Are they a similar team to what they were last year or do they put the ball in the air a lot this year? I don't know.

I wonder is Anderson can put past them last weeks loss to Collins. They are tough at home I look for this one to be a battle.

 

Anderson 27

 

Cooper 21

Given Cooper's tough 4th quarter losses this season, IF we hope to win, we have to put this one away with the passing game by early- to mid-3rd quarter and then rely on defense and/or ball control via the run to eat clock the rest of the way. We had been relying on a sophomore RB lately, but lost him for the season against Dixie.

I hope Cooper wins. This could be a very difficult game after last years game. Last year Cooper came out on fire on both sides of the ball. This year I have only seen that in one game and that was versus Conner. Cooper needs to come out fast with a lot of emotion. I would like to see the coaching staff take more chances. There have been at least 4 times this year in the first half the coaches have packed it in instead of taking a chance and trying to score.

I agree Clyde.

 

Of course, Cooper wouldn't even be in the playoffs if a lot of people on here had their way. Nothing against Cooper, they just don't want anyone in the playoffs except the #1 and 2 from each district.

Anderson 35-20, IF they are healthy. If they aren't, this one could be a tough call.

Anderson Co. 28-22.

This. Could be one heck of a game.

Good game? Cooper limps home 48-7, Bearcats.

Hope everyone such as yourself keeps looking at Cooper's 3-7 record and looking past them. I know Anderson has a strong team and will be looking for revenge for what happened to them last year vs Cooper (a 50-0 loss) I will tell you that Cooper is Battle Tested with one of the toughest schedules in the State and lost several games in the 4th quarter. Either team could win IMO and don't envison this lopsided of a score you are predicting, nor like last year's score, but I'm sure of one thing, the Jags will be there fighting hard and if the Cooper team that played vs. Conner shows up this will be a ballgame.

What happened to Anderson County against Collins? Did they sit a bunch of players?

Collins is a pretty good team I thought this year. Their score doesnt' surprise me.
