Tadpole Tracks I'll be the only guy in a Oregon hoodie so feel free to speak if you see me. I always enjoy meeting fans from schools we haven't played before. Praying for safe travels for you and your fan base Friday!
Thanks so kindly. I don't know if I will be there being I have 2 small kids at home so they come first however I will be following it.
Man I love that you pull for MC and I personally think Metzeger is great coach. I have met him and talked to him many times in various capacities. It is awesome you guys finally put together a winning season and are making your first playoff appearance under Metzeger.
With that being said y'all lost against people this year who are not good. Piedmont is one of the worst teams I saw play this year, I mean they finished at the bottom of their 3A/2A split conference. You guys are about to get hit in the mouth in ways you have not been. SP is physical and they run their system very well, it is something taught from early ages on up through.
Take heart though, you're junior loaded and the future looks bright for you in Timberwolves land. Your junior class will get some playoff experience with this game and maybe realize where the bar is to be really good and rise to meet expectations. Realignment could help y'all as well.
Like crestrulz said, this is not one of SP’s all time great teams. And I have no idea how good your team is, I’m just making assumptions. We played them to open the season, and our defense did pretty well, but they controlled field position and scored on two short punt returns. SP’s run defense seemed pretty strong, but at that point we were still figuring out what to do on offense and it wasn’t pretty.
I do like you guys color scheme and mascot. I was looking at your past results on maxpreps. Is this your first ever playoff appearance?
Yes I am a big fan of Metzeger since he took over. We are very young with only 9 or 10 seniors and will have to face some growing pains which may begin this week when we face SP.
Certainly true. Next years version of SP should be one of the best we have seen in a while.
I know it will be man. You all are going to be awful good.
Next year will be one of Crest's better teams as well. Or at least it should be.
I guess you should know if this is Montgomery Central's first playoff appearance, Tadpole, but I was thinking it is your first playoff as Montgomery Central. I know West Montgomery made numerous playoff appearances, and East Montgomery, too. When was your first journey into the playoffs as Montgomery Central ? Thanks in advance and good luck at South Point.
The wolf they have in the hallway entering the school is massive and a beautiful creature. It is something to see!
I have only watched one game (Huss vs SP). They seem to be missing a few things. 140 wingbacks that can fly. Usually have a kicker who kicks to the end zone every time (don't have one). QB and fullback are grown men and very good (FB also plays LB on defense).
Defense and special teams really smarm to the ball. Crest folks like to call SP "midgets", they are not they are plenty big enough.
Thanks to all you high school football fans for your insights on what my Timerwolves will face when we come to South Point tonight.
We haven't made the playoffs in many years so it's exciting for us.
Yet it sounds like we are going up against a very good team in South Point. I am sure we will give it our best and hope for what one of you called a miracle for us to win.
Thanks again,

He's probably not very impressed. Pretty lackadaisical effort tonight by SP.
Yes you were right. Offensively they blew us off the ball almost all night. Never any big runs but seem like 8 to 10 yards from the QB and FB every carry. We stack the line but it didn't matter. They pitched to the wings and passed the ball and were equally effective there. They ate the clock the entire first half. We were 3 and out almost every possession. The defense was stout. We might have had 0 yards rushing. We did pass for a few yards. One other thing was the eye test one of you mentioned. They were not all that big. We were bigger than they were but their execution on both side of the ball was flawless other than a few penalties. We did score on the last play of the game but they were playing their subs the entire 4th Qtr. Their stadium was packed and the parking was tough. We had to park at a grocery store across from the school. We are a young team hope to be back next year.
Thanks again
They are a well oiled machine. Especially this late in season.
While the game did not go as well for you as you would have wanted. It is clear that MC has some really good athletes and you guys are likely on the right track. Your offense ran from more sets than you normally see in HS, but SP defense was the difference last night as they smothered most of what MC tried. Good luck in the future and thanks for starting this post which was fun to read all of the facts coming from Raider fans and fiction coming from the Cleveland County contingent.
I believe Montgomery central finished the game with 97 total yards of offense. Hope #9 is ok, he took some big hits in the 1at half and didn't play in the 2nd half.
I hear he is OK. He rushed for over 1000 yards this year and we were hurt without him. Although that SP front 7 were all over us most of the night. They weren't all that big but they gang tackled everytime.
Lol that's why the Crest guys call us midgets! We're never that big, but always scrappy!
