I think Christian will be a very tough game..especially since John has to make the drive down there this year. Last year, both teams struggled stopping the other...obviously two very different styles and both very effective. John as I'm sure you remember came up with two, big Christian County turnovers that IMO were the difference in the game. But....two squads like that...who gets the break(s) in the game
is usually the determining factor.

I think BG will be way too much myself. Then again, BG is that for all outside of MAYBE a handful of teams.

John's biggest losses are in the LB and secondary areas. They graduated all of their secondary from last year, and arguably their best LB (Nikko Lloyd) moved back to Virginia.

Upfront on both sides they should be very solid, as well as in the backfield where they return everybody except for their QB. They aren't overly big upfront on either side of the ball, but a very, very active group with good motors...good hands/feet.

I have heard that several kids have moved this year. Not sure how accurate that is but that is life in the military. They did lose their secondary, but if they put Witherspoon back there along with Smalling I think they will be ok. I just want Witherspoon to take football seriously and stay out of trouble this year because he is a freakish athlete. I think by the end of the year he will be an outstanding QB for the team also.
