Congrats to Coach Preston and Franklin-Simpson on the their State Championship! As for the rest of my thoughts, I’m going to keep them to myself.

If tonight’s games were any indication, tomorrow should be a great day for football. Having not seen FS in person this year, I can’t make a prediction on the outcome. One thing I do know is, Tre Bass is very good and FS will look to run the ball just as JC. What I will say is I know this years JC team is make better than last year and has a more complete stable of backs. I just hope at the end of the game it’s JC hoisting it’s 2nd state title. Good luck to the Eagles tomorrow and a special shout out to #25! Bring it home!

Knox’s run in the 2nd quarter was assisted by 3 fumbles from JC. Even through that, and an onside kick recovery by Knox’s to start the game, JC lead 29-14. Johnson Central came out more focused and regrouped on the 3rd quarter to put the game away. Still great effort from the Panthers, they just had no consistent answer for JC’s run game, which has gotten progressively better as the season went on.

Final.
