Traditionally, this has been as close as you can get in terms of overall wins/losses in the series. In the last 24 games, Tilghman has won 12, Graves has won 12. Doesn't get any better than that to keep it interesting. 

Graves is coming off an opening week 36-0 shutout loss to Mayfield while the Tornado are riding high after imposing a running clock on McCracken in the 2nd quarter of their 40 point win. 

It's always hard to get a good handle on things this early in the season, so this one will tell us a little more about each of these teams and some of their tendencies. 

 

I'm going with the Blue Tornados big in this one!

That Mayfield game is going to be a good one!!!

These words should be burned into our brains. 

Tilghman will win easily against Graves, if they don't beat Mayfield this year and break the losing streak they will never win.

PT names the score, probably the best Tilghman team in maybe a decade? They had some really good teams in coach Smith’s first couple years, but I don’t believe there were ever quite as loaded as this year. 

PT-54

GC-7

I will be looking to see if the committee approach at receiver continues tonight as Jack James completed passes to 7 different receivers during the 1st half last week. 

Shemari Thomas and LeBran McMullen seemed to be the 2 that stood out the most week 1 and they both made terrific plays. 

It'll be easy for you....next week might be different.

It could be, but I'm not counting on it being a blowout just yet. McCracken is definitely down, so it's hard to tell after just 1 game. I also felt like the Graves defense didn't just break last week, and played maybe tougher than the score indicated. The offense for Graves not moving the ball as well doesn't help the defense either. 

I'm curious to see how this game plays out. Tilghman should win, I just don't know if it will be as lopsided and some expect. 

Tilghman's biggest focus should be cleaning up penalties. Way too many last week and had 2 touchdowns called back. That can't happen against Mayfield or they have no chance. 

PT will be ok. Graves has a decent defense. Maybe Graves shores up it's offense some but it's not going to matter, if PT is as good as we think they are, they win easily.

PT goes for it on 4th and 1. Turnover on downs. Graves takes it at their own 46. 

Graves punts. Touchback. 

PT to punt. Graves D looking solid so far. 

Eagles take over at the PT 38 after a bad punt. 

15 yard penalty against the Tornado. 

Graves 1st down at the PT 14.
