I like this explosive offense from PT.  They have speed and are able to make plays on the edges.  I don't, however, think they can sustain long drives and punch it in on a consistent basis.  Their defense has been a bit suspect at times.  T

Mayfield's strength, thus far this season, is their defense.  They seem to pride themselves in keeping the opponent out of the end zone.  Hoptown is also a team with explosive receivers and we saw how that turned out.

I know the streak will come to an end one of these days...  I just don't think it's this year.

Just curious…what did you think of the facebook live broadcast?

Pretty good quality, visually.  I would like for the guys calling the game to use player names (instead of nicknames, which I don't know), as well as add in some down/distance and game information along the way more frequently.  I should be able to start watching at any point and get a situation update within 5 minutes.  Maybe I am being picky.  I will say, I'm very appreciative of those guys doing that.  Its nice to have game access without being able to attend.

Well Mayfield Radio guys always use names familiar to only them in broadcasts, Marshall County does the same. Some times they just use a first name its broadcast only for their team listeners not the general audience.

 

? HOT TAKE ? Ok everyone has talked me into this-- I will take PT 28 Mayfield 17. Everyone agrees the streak will end at some point soon. Might as well happen now. 

I am hearing some rough news from Cards fans this morning. It is possible a significant player suffered a significant injury in their last game. I can not confirm this as I havn't seen anything publicly posted, so I don't feel comfortable posting this athletes name nor feel I should. If true, this game just got very interesting.

I think the Friday night broadcast of the games have been refreshing. I listen to different games throughout region 1 and the Facebook live broadcast of the games have been nice to have when you can't make a game. Also, I watched the Thursday recap/preview of the games and it was great. There are alot of high school football junkies out there that love plenty of content for their town or region and those guys did a really good job with that Thursday and Friday night.

Not sure for Mayfield, but Tilghman has lost one of our better defenders for the season as well. You hate to see it for both teams.

That’s terrible. Hate to hear that. 

Bump.

This game will have a big crowd no doubt, but I'm wondering how the "Touchdowns and Tunes" concert that kicks off tonight with Lynyrd Skynyrd right down the road will affect attendance somewhat. I know there's gonna be a whole lot of people there and some of those definitely would have been at this game. 

Me personally, there's very few things I'd miss this one for.
