Absolutely. They are not a bad team. It's hard to compare Green, and Metcalfe because the only game in common is Campbellsville. Both Green and Metcalfe had fairly close scoring with Green giving up 7 and Metcalfe Giving up 14. Metcalfe hasn't really been tested on the defensive side of the ball. They return alot of the same players from last year squad. Green was able to take a one a dementional team and beat them last year. Granted Green lost a couple key Seniors on both sides of the ball from last year squad. (Lineman,LB) This year they won't be able to load the box and dare Green to pass. Green has a good QB Sophomore Hodges, and up to 5 targets with great hands (Ferguson,McKinney,Slinker,Houchen,Seymour) Plus have recently been a proven rusher when needed.  Green also returns 2 1000+ yard rushers (Houchens,Seymour) which there stats are down from last year due to a much balanced offense. 

Green has battled with defense all season. The new play caller has moved around some of the pieces to help the deffense out. They have depended on the offense to win close games. They have gotten better each week. Will they be able to handle Metcalfes offense. Blythe WR is there main receiving target. He can also be brought in motion to run the ball or lead block. Estes QB is not only a pass threat but a run threat as well. Anderson and Bransetter are very hard nose rushers. Very strong and quick. They both can take a screen pass at turn it up for a TD. 

Should be a great game. I see this game coming down to the wire.

Green County's improved balance on offense has me leaning their way, here. I think they get it done in an exciting back and forth game.

Houchens - another hidden gem in the smaller classes - may be the best player on the field this Friday, but Blythe is a tremendous two-way player in his own right. He gives Metcalfe some speed on the outside and playmaking ability in space. Also a ballhawk in the secondary with eleven interceptions since the start of last season, including five picks and two returned for scores this year. He makes things happen when the ball is in his hands. If Metcalfe wins this week, I look for his fingerprints all over the game.

Absolutely. Green has some great tanlet. Houchens has the size speed, and ability to do anything he wants. Top in the 2A on sacks top 20 in 2A rushing.  Seymour is a small back but runs like he's 215lbs. Top 25 rusher in 2A He's a lockdown defender. He's leading the team in scoring, tackles, tied with Houchens on forced fumbles. 2 fumbles recovered for TD, and one punt return for TD. 

Most underrated player is McKinney he can do all the above as he had 700+ yards rushing last year. He is Greens TE and LB. Leading the team in Receiving yards. This kid is a mule, and have seen film of dragging two to three defenders down field. 

You throw in Ferguson as a multi postion athlete. He can run the ball pass the ball, and catch the ball. He's small fast and agile. He bounces off defenders and can work through small holes. He is a great CB. Has the ability to pick 6 on any pass his way. What he lacks in height his vertical makes up. 

 

These two teams match up well. Blythe is an animal no doubt. If Metcalfe wins this game. He has to have a great night. Luke Meadows, and Bennett has to get to the backfield.  Bennett is a playmaker on deffense and a pounder on offense.

Blake Houchens is the best player no one really knows about. I saw a post from his brother on Facebook a few weeks back of his midseason highlights and it was beyond impressive. I honestly haven't been to a game yet where I have seen a better player on the field. He averages right at 8 yards a carry, has run for 770 yards on 100 carries and 8 Td, has 8 catches for 171 yards and 1Td, 47 tackles, 14 tackles for loss, 8 sacks, 3 forced fumbles, and a fumble recovery and never leaves the field for the Dragons.

If you get the chance, come watch the young man, he is worth the price of admission. Look up his Hudl, its like watching a kid who should be recruited by some of the top colleges in the state and is flying under the radar. Another cool part about coming to Dragon stadium is you also get to see some really great athletes around him, and Mr. Do everything Julian Seymour, score, play great defense and help his team in every aspect of the game. Did I mention this Friday the stadium will be standing room only and the turf and upgrades around the facility are top notch. Come on out to what should be a Dandy of a game.

Great player, no doubt. Big, strong, and runs well with or without the football. Plays with the confidence of a player that knows he's good. He's got one of the best stiff arms I've seen this year.

Dang right! Houchens has every aspect to play division 1 ball. Haven't heard of an offers of yet through the rumor mill. Did catch a glimpse of him in a Eastern Kentucky uniform. Must have been from a GameDay visit. Seems like him and Seymour has an agreement. He lays the hit seymour picks up and runs. Best thing about Houchens that sets him apart from the rest is he don't care if he runs the ball or lead blocks. He can make a hole were a bus can drive through. He will do what it takes to get the W.  Houchens has always been a mid season turn on. Green would have zero in the loss column.  I hope to see this kid play at the next level. If everything works out he should be in a D1 school.  

Seymour is Seymour he's an athlete. He's gonna go out and give his 115% all while playing both sides of the ball. If this kid could find some weight he is gonna turns some heads. I see him playing after high school however it's gonna depend on his off-season workout and meal plan if he has one. He can go division 1 in track if that's the route he takes.

 

Bump.
