Estill Co. 32-15.

The Neer's spanked the Trojans in game one. They dealt the Trojans the worse defeat of the year. Maybe Cawood can make this one a little more respectable. Cawood has played their best ball as of late and seem to be coming on strong at the correct time. They will need it if game one is any indication. Estill had 450 some yards rushing in the last game. I think the last score was something like 51 to 6?

Estill's first playoff appearance since 2003 and I think Estill rolls in this one. After seeing the first game it would be awfully hard to change my opinion. Cawood didn't like getting hit in the mouth, that could have changed since the last game but I don't see it making a difference. However Cawood didn't play that bad, they are a pretty big bunch of boys, with a solid line, and solid skill players.

Estill 44

Cawood 20

Don't underestimate the "last game" factor for Cawood. Every game they play could be their last as a school. Estill has had a nice year, but will their lack of postseason experience hurt them this year? I think the Engineers will win, but look for it to be close.

I agree Estill's lack of postseason experience could be a factor... on down the road. I know this is a new game but the last game it wasn't even close. Cawood couldn't stop the run what-so-ever, and their offense consisted of FB dive, and a screen to #84 but only put up 12 points, the first 6 on a fantastic catch in the 2nd quarter, and the other score coming with less than a minute against the junior varsity. Again Cawood has several good players but they just couldn't compete with Estill in October and I just don't see them winning Friday night.

I hope I am wrong but I kind of agree with Neers 44. I don't see Cawood being able to make up that big of a difference since the first game. Good luck Trojans!

I think i will take the Trojan's anybody can get beat on any given night... dont let your head get to big because the Sons Of Troy will be ready to play friday night....

I have no doubt in my mind they'll be ready to play it's the playoffs. Cawood was ready to play in mid October as well, Estill just took it to them. Cawood is not a bad team, they have good sized boys who never quit until the final whistle blew and I respect them for that, it's just after the last game I don't see them beating Estill. In my opinion Cawood didn't play that bad in the first meeting, they looked like a decent team that just couldn't play with the 'Neers.

Estill by 4 TD's.
