GoodOleBoy73 Posted September 10, 2022 Share Posted September 10, 2022 Big time game in Lindale, TX next week. Gilmer smoked Paris and has 3 wins all against quality opponents. Lindale comes off of a big rivalry win against Van Who you got and why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jakeelee05 Posted September 10, 2022 Share Posted September 10, 2022 I’m going with Lindale. They looked really good tonight and keep improving every week. It will be a super tough game but I think they can pull it off if they play a near perfect game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buckeyefandom Posted September 10, 2022 Share Posted September 10, 2022 Gilmer has gotten better each week, especially defensively. But Lindale has had this game circled all summer as most of Gilmer’s opponents do. Lindale is a disciplined and mentally tough team, but the raw speed and athletic superiority of the Buckeyes gives them the edge. There are just too many ways Gilmer can attack, and Lindale cannot get into a gun fight with Gilmer. The Eagles best bet is to win the battle up front, possess the ball and run effectively, using play action to pick their spots and hit the Buckeyes deep. They cannot turn it over or get behind the chains, as Gilmer is simply too good and has too many weapons for Lindale to get into a track meet. Keys for Lindale to win include playing a near flawless game, be +2 on turnovers and hold Gilmer under 30 points. All of which is a really tough task. The Buckeyes improvement in O-Line play and their “Thunder & Lightening” running game with Haynes and Henderson gives the Tennison as a young QB (who is getting better and better) opportunities down the field to Tate and all-world Fluellen. And Gilmer’s speed, size and athletes on defense will make it hard on Lindale to establish the run effectively enough to sustain long drives and keep the ball away from the Buckeyes. When the Buckeyes score 30+, they have won 95% of their games since 1980. Tough task for the Eagles this year. My guess would be 45-28 Gilmer.

Vandalman Posted September 10, 2022 Share Posted September 10, 2022 Tough game here. Everyone is watching Gilmer closely this year. They certainly do seem to deserve their ranking. If the Eagles can play like they did the first half at Van then this game can be closer than most think. Big O-line can make some holes and all you need is 3 yards per carry to eat the clock and play keep away. Gilmer is Gilmer though so I'm picking them to win even though I'll be rooting for Lindale.

mikehoncho Posted September 10, 2022 Share Posted September 10, 2022 I think this game is closer than a lot of people are going to think. Lindale is trending up and I think they can win it, but they pretty much have to play mistake free, you don’t want to give this Gilmer team any more ammunition than they already have.

GTownballer Posted September 10, 2022 Share Posted September 10, 2022 Gilmer has to find some discipline and keep the penalties to a minimum, if they can do that, I see this game being close in the first half and Gilmer pulling away in the second..Gilmer has a ton of weapons and some serious speed, and the defense is definitely starting to come together, the secondary played well last night on deep balls..

Sportsguru02 Posted September 10, 2022 Share Posted September 10, 2022 They called a penalty for one of our guys tackling to rough last night I was shocked lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goduke01 Posted September 10, 2022 Share Posted September 10, 2022 We have played extremely clean this year. Hardly any penalties. Not even sure if we have 1 holding call. Maybe 2 false starts. And some Personal Fouls that where silly to be called. Especially when both teams are engaged. This team has been one of the least penalized teams in last 20 yrs so far.

kingwolf Posted September 10, 2022 Share Posted September 10, 2022 This game comes down to Gilmer's defense. Can they keep Lindale from getting a solid rhythm? I think Gilmer wins but it will be close for most of the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bulldogs12 Posted September 11, 2022 Share Posted September 11, 2022 Gilmer is the best team on Lindale’s schedule and will be the favorites. But don’t count Lindale out. They can win if able to put a complete 4 quarters together. Can’t turn the ball over and will need to be All Gas the entire game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lindale will need to play 4 quarters like they did 1st half of Van game. If they do, they can beat Gilmer. If they don’t, they will take the L. We are blatantly notorious for getting conservative in our play calling and playing not to lose instead of playing to win when we get a lead - see Pine Tree game, ESPECIALLY see the Van game, see any game we’ve gotten ahead by 2 TD’s…. It’s a fact. To win, Lindale has to go balls out the entire game no matter how big they may lead and go that way all the way to 4th quarter reading 00:00. It’s the only way they’ll win. But Gilmer is definitely favored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SportsFan1984 Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 Gilmer will get their turnovers for sure. Lindale needs to turn the ball over no more than once and capitalize on Gilmers mistakes on offense. Gilmer has a tendency to go three and out quickly at times and Tennison can make some mistakes since he is still learning and becoming a better QB. Lindale needs to capitalize on those opportunities and pound the ball. When throwing a pass, keep it away from Rohan. With that being said, Gilmer wins 42-28.

GoodOleBoy73 Posted September 13, 2022 Author Share Posted September 13, 2022 If the Eagles play turnover free football then they've got a chance to get the win on Friday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d0tc0m Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 This game feels like it could be close. But so long as Gilmer has Fluellen, Haynes, Tate and Tennison on the roster, it's hard to pick against the Buckeyes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LetsGoEagles Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 I can totally see this ^^^ if Lindale gets any type of lead they will go conservative in their play calling and let Gilmer right back in. It’s their M.O. Have to keep the foot on the gas. Gilmer definitely favored but lindale does have a chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
