In region play for the Florence Falcons, they sit atop the leaderboard. A win tonight over a dangerous Huntsville Panthers team and the Falcons could be starting making plans for postseason play.
Welcome to Florence Falcons football. Hello everyone, I'm Kevin Johnson, voice of the Florence Falcons, and welcome to the T&T.
T&T Fireworks pregame show tonight as the sun sets in the Rocket City and the lights come on at Milton Frank. It's the biggest game of the Falcons this season, no doubt about it, as they're 4-1 in region play and look to try to go to 5-1 and solidify a chance to go to postseason for sure.
We're joined now by my good friend, Mike Albertson, my color analyst, and Mike, man, this is what you sign up for to play right here.
Absolutely. You know, this game, both teams are in a great position and, you know, have their destiny in their hands, and this is going to be one of those matchups that we look back at, and this could very well, you know, solidify some things for either team tonight.
We are weeks away from playoffs, but yet this week has seemed like, even for me and probably for our crew, it feels like a playoff-type atmosphere already.
You feel like this is a big-time playoff-type game for this Florence team.
Oh, this certainly is. This region is still log-jammed and up for grabs, and with Huntsville knocking off Austin earlier on, you know, this game, you know,
this matchup has been more emphasized as the season has gone on, so, you know, the Florence Falcons do come in at 4-1 and Huntsville 3-2,
but, you know, whoever wins this game with tiebreaker scenarios and everything starts really holding all the cards as the season goes on.
We are set up high atop on the visitor's side of Milton Frank Stadium here in this venerable old stadium.
We're high atop that. They have a nice little covering for us here.
We want to say a big shout-out to the Florence High School video team that's been helping us out.
Mainly one young man, Sam Irons, who helped us out tonight.
Sam's over here to our right, and he helped us out. We appreciate that.
We want to give him a shout-out for helping us out.
Good to see not only the team, but the managers, VDR, everybody's involved, aren't they, Mike?
Oh, this is a, you know, this is obviously a team effort.
I mean, you know, from the administration on down, from, you know, from the school, the teachers, the student body, the cheerleaders,
I mean, everybody's involved, and this is what makes Florence one big, great community.
Mike, let's talk about this Florence team.
Last week, they took care of business, as we thought they should against Grissom,
but the way they did it was quite impressive.
Oh, absolutely. Florence jumped out right away and took control of the game.
A lot of the times, you're playing against an opponent, you play up and down to your competition a little bit.
Florence didn't do that.
They just came in.
They handled their business.
By the mid-third quarter, they were able to really start emptying the bench and getting a lot of subs
and getting a lot of good reps for the future, and so Florence really taking that game from start to finish
against a Grissom team that had some really good athletes on the field,
but Florence just left it without a doubt, you know, pretty much by halftime,
and as the game went on, they really sealed the deal.
We're about 50 minutes plus away from kickoff of this between Florence and Huntsville
tonight here at Milton Frank Stadium.
Kevin Johnson, Mike Albertson with you.
Looking forward to it.
By the way, you can download the 93.9 The Score app and listen to this game anywhere at any time,
and also, we have them archived and go back and podcast and listen to any of our broadcasts as well.
Lots of people enjoy doing that, and we appreciate them listening in to 93.9 The Score.
Mike, games like this can be decided by a few coaching decisions, here or there.
This could be a chess match tonight in many ways.
Oh, absolutely.
You know, these close games versus good teams really do come down to like one or two big plays,
and, you know, with these two teams, the way that they've matched up over the years,
you know, while Florence has had the overall matchup 13-4,
this game is generally a lot closer than most games throughout the season,
so with Florence and Huntsville both jockeying for position and everything,
I mean, a couple years ago, it came down to, you know, a trick play in the end zone
to really solidify some things here for the Falcons, so, you know, with those situations.
But it's going to come down to ball control and really field position.
The field position battle is going to be huge tonight.
I've been with the Florence Falcons basically from the very beginning.
There's so many incredible games I think about in Florence and Huntsville.
Kevin Weissman, former coach at Huntsville High School,
former principal at Florence High School.
We appreciate all he did for both high schools.
He made both of them better, by the way.
He was a part of this game, and bless his heart, it seemed like every time
that he looked over at the Florence team, they were pulling something out of the hat,
whether it was here one night when it was a mud bowl.
There had actually been rain all week at Milton Frank.
It was a grass field, and they'd actually played a game, I believe,
maybe either the night before or the afternoon before,
and we played Huntsville that night, and by the third quarter,
there was no grass.
It was just complete mud, and Florence with Sean Southward taking over
in a different number jersey.
As Kevin Weissman tells the great story, he told them all the time,
be looking for number 27 and number 35 or something like that
was the jersey he put on at halftime because of the jersey change,
and they said, Coach, we didn't find 27.
They said, that's him.
He's in 35.
Catch him, you know.
Too late.
He went off, and Florence won that one 21-7.
Double overtime win a couple years ago.
Had great games at Brawley Stadium, including, in 2007,
the first area championship, and it was an area or region championship game.
The winner of that game wins the region, and Florence intercepts a pass late
and returns it for a pick six to seal a victory against Huntsville.
So when these two teams get together, usually they're at the top,
and usually there's something at stake.
We know that it's going to happen again tonight.
And by the way, tonight, this week, I could not get with head coach Kenny Morrison.
He was out of pocket a little bit.
I was out of pocket, so we didn't get to mesh up to have our pregame interview with him.
We'll catch him there at the half, or excuse me,
right before he goes in for the locker room in a few minutes.
But instead of having a coach's interview, why don't we have a little trivia time
for my whole crew?
I'll bring in Jeffrey Jones, John McDaniel.
Guys, are y'all doing well tonight?
Yes, sir.
We're ready to go.
All right to be here.
Hey, and by the way, where was the meal tonight, JJ?
Bob Baumheimer's Victory Grill, and it was excellent.
It was excellent.
They did us right.
We appreciate them as well.
Well, here's a couple of little-known facts about Huntsville football.
Huntsville has been playing since 1903.
They have faced several Scholes area teams, including Deschler and Russell, but they even lost to Cherokee one time.
They played Hazelwood several times, and they played Lauderdale County, and they played Sheffield several times.
So they've played several over 100 years.
They have played several Scholes area teams.
KJ, what was that first game like?
That first game in 1903?
That's the one I was going to talk about.
We'll get to that in a minute, but Kevin Wiesman said that it was really amazing, and I'll get with him about that later, too.
You took the joke out from under me on that.
I appreciate that.
How many times have the Panthers, and especially for Jeffrey Jones, how many times did the Panthers face the Coffee Yellow Jackets?
Oh, while I was there?
No, no.
I mean, the whole time.
How many times have they played over the years?
It was at least three while I was there, so I'm going to say 33.
33, anybody want to go higher than that or lower than that?
I'm going to go one.
I'm going to be like Price is Right without going over.
All right, I'll hit the over.
I'll do 55.
55.
Boy, I tell you what, John, you went over, but you were close.
I believe if I'm not mistaken.
And actually, no, your under actually was 62.
62.
So 62 times.
Coffee won 32 times.
Huntsville won 28, and they had two ties.
Now, how many times did Huntsville and Bradshaw play over the years?
Not near as many.
Well, that's right.
Bradshaw started in 67.
I'll say 68, maybe.
22.
22.
Good number.
23.
23.
All right, without looking it up there, John.
It's not on there.
Okay, that's good.
Appreciate that.
All right, I'm just being honest.
I'll take, what was the numbers?
What did you have?
22 and 23.
Well, let's hit 31.
How about zero?
They never, ever played.
Never, ever played.
That's why he couldn't find it.
That's right.
That's why I know who the cheater is.
I mean, here, Kirby Smart over here to my right.
Got to find him already.
All right.
How many times we talked about that?
Huntsville's biggest loss was understandable.
In 1913, they lost 86 to zero.
Do you know who their opponent was?
I'll give you a hint.
It's an opponent from the Shoals area.
Oh, I was going to say Huffman.
UNA.
The UNA Lions is exactly right.
It was Florence State Technical College or University Teachers College.
They played back in those days.
Obviously, Alabama's played a couple of high schools.
And UNA, which was at that time Florence State, played Huntsville and beat them 86 to zero in 1913.
That was the game Kevin Wiesman did not coach in, but he was a ball boy.
I remember that one.
Okay.
All right.
Florence State College won that one.
All right.
Speaking of Coffey and Bradshaw, who was the last win for both schools for Coffey and Bradshaw?
In 2003, Bradshaw's last win, who was it against?
Anybody want to remember?
It was against Jess Lanier.
Jess Lanier is what he says.
Okay.
He set up with a lot of confidence.
Anybody want to guess?
How about they beat Wilson 20 to 12?
That was their last win in 2003.
Coffey's last victory.
Was in 2002.
Against?
Muscle Shoals.
Nope.
Coffey beat Brewer 55 to 10.
And Coffey beat Brewer 55 to 10.
And that was the last time that those two teams played.
So just a little trivia there as we're having fun tonight on the TNT Fireworks pregame show.
Huntsville on the field right now warming up in all red.
Falcons in their road whites with blue helmets, blue pants.
It's going to be a good one tonight.

Welcome back to the TNT Fireworks pregame show, Florence Falcons football, 93-9 the score.
You're home for Florence Falcons football and athletics since 2004.
Kevin Johnson, Mike Albertson, Jeffrey Jones, Sean McDaniel, all glad to be with you here as
we are taking on the Huntsville Panthers on the road tonight are the Florence Falcons in
a big, big matchup.
And Mike, Florence offense showed a lot of diversity, including heavy package on short yardage
and a lot of guys touched the ball.
Yes, I mean, last week, the Falcons put a lot of formations out there and threw out a lot
of different route trees by the wide receivers and such.
Being able to put a lot of that on film and frustrate defenses has been, you know, kind of
what the Falcons were looking to do last week.
And I think they did a pretty good job.
I mean, they distributed the ball well and being able to get the ball out into some playmakers'
hands out in the space.
It's going to be one of those situations where you can't key on any one guy for the Falcons.
And so the Huntsville is going to have their hands full tonight.
Well, and I tell you what, the Florence Falcons will, too, have their hands full.
It's a very even game.
And I believe these two teams very evenly match.
But one place that Huntsville is really good is on that defensive line.
And Mike, the biggest task tonight could be the offensive line.
How will they handle this defensive line?
What is the key for them?
You know, I think, you know, getting it out of the quarterback's hands quick, get it out to
the wide receivers, really test the edges of this defense.
You know, that defensive line is going to be in the backfield a good bit.
We see that from some of the defensive lines that haven't been as strong.
So just being able to get it out and really take it to them.
As far as being able to hold the line and everything is concerned, we need a big game from this
offensive line.
We saw it against Bob Jones.
We need one of those caliber nights again tonight if we think that we're going to be able to move
the ball with any regular success.
Let's welcome in our third member of the crew, our Uber driver, our sideline reporter,
our man that keeps everybody on their toes for whatever we do, Mr. Jeffrey Jones.
JJ, last week was relaxing from the big win.
But tonight, Florence will have to, well, buckle up because it's going to be a four-quarter game.
Yeah, we're going to see a tale of two teams because last week they were in the driver's seat
the whole time.
This week it's going to be a lot different.
This is the best Huntsville team we've seen that I can remember maybe since before the
Wiesman years.
I don't know.
You know, a little jab at him.
But, you know, I'm not used to seeing this kind of Huntsville team that I'm very, you know,
used to.
Grissom and Huntsville kind of wouldn't chalk those up as a win.
Not the case tonight.
This is an outstanding Huntsville team.
They have some weaknesses, but they've come up with some good quality wins as well as being
able to show some strength in the fourth quarter of his last few games.
Florence gained some confidence last week, but overconfidence can just go the opposite
way.
How do you keep the right mindset that even killed him this year, JJ?
Well, so I think that, you know, we had a gimme game last week.
We'll just call it what it is.
And we knew it going in.
We knew that probably the whole team was going to play or we hoped it.
And we got the results that we wanted.
That is not the case with the Huntsville Panthers.
We got to keep our foot on the gas.
Now, I think that we're getting Huntsville at the right time.
You know, our coaches, our players have all meshed.
They've all gelled the last few weeks.
Everything's been going pretty good, but we got to keep that momentum going.
Can't sit back and rest.
And I think, you know, our guys, they've been preached to all week.
They know what's on the line.
They know what's at stake.
So I'm confident that we're going to come out.
Now, we could come out dead.
If we come out dead, it's going to be a hard road recovery.
I'll say that.
But if we stay focused and take care of the task at hand,
the Huntsville certainly, as we talked about on the way over here,
Huntsville's certainly beatable.
But we're not going to be able to play the game we played against Bob Jones.
We're not going to be able to play the game we played against James Clemens.
We're going to have to play the Bob Jones type.
Yeah, it's got to be an A or B game, I think, to have a chance to not have a doubt about it.
One last thing, how about this special teams, Charlie Graves, Parker Greenhall, dual weapons.
You know, that's a big thing to have both those kickers that can come in,
whether it be kickoffs or extra points or field goals, they've all done a great job.
Sometimes those mop-up games like we had last week are good to get valuable experience.
So Charlie struggled with two extra points, you know, one of them dinged off the crossbar.
But he also hit a 42-yarder, which was his, by far, career-long.
It hit the upright, not the crossbar, but I know what you're saying.
It hit the pole there.
It hit something.
So, you know, and they were able to switch.
So then Greenhall got one or two extra points in,
and Charlie came in to do the kickoffs when they switched them up.
So I think it's very important for us to stay, you know, diverse in what they do
because we're one kick away from pulling a hamstring or some sort of injury.
So I'm confident in both kickers to do both jobs at this point.
They've both been very solid.
And, you know, I'm getting used to this having a good kicker thing.
That's nice, isn't it?
It is nice.
Nice snappers and kickers and holders.
I like this.
I think that the future still looks bright.
You know, we struggled with kickers for quite a while.
You know, we didn't have confidence in the kickers anywhere inside the 25-yard line.
Well, that's not the case today.
And today I will put our kicker up there against any of the other kickers in our region by far.
And, by the way, Mike Albertson, nice to have a return man like Jay Shott Pearson
who turned the game last week or two weeks ago.
Oh, absolutely.
You know, Jay Shott was able to really turn the game on.
And, you know, you're going to see him in different spots tonight.
Just being able to have him on the field and being able to use him in many diverse ways
is really going to create havoc for any defense.
Being able to account for him at any point is going to be super important.
When he gets the ball, it can be electric and really change the game.
So Huntsville's got to keep their eye out for that.
I'll tell you somebody I also have confidence in, that's James Moody.
He is our engineer in the 93.9 The Score Studios.
He'll be giving you updates as our studio host tonight.
Throughout the night, he'll be a part of the AHSAA Scoreboard Show, too, from 10 to midnight,
giving you updates on scores from around North Alabama.
James Moody, I'll let you take it away at this time.
Thank you, Kevin.
Yes, we'll be keeping up with a whole cornucopia of sports tonight with Thanksgiving fast approaching.
So we have a score from last night.
Brooks defeated Lexington 49-21.
Coming up tonight, we'll be following all the games, including but not limited to James Clemens and Austin,
also Red Bay and Decatur Heritage,
Schultz-Christian Hackleberg, Hartzell-Jasper,
Calvert Heights-Mars Hill,
Lauderdale County, Rogers, Phillips, and Waterloo.
We also have some Tennessee scores.
We have a fairly decent slate of college ball tonight.
Louisville and Miami are currently in the first quarter, Louisville leading 7-0.
We also have Nebraska-Minnesota, Cal and North Carolina, San Jose State, Utah State,
and we'll be keeping track of the baseball playoffs.
Currently in the fifth, the Mariners are leading the Blue Jays 1-0,
and the Dodgers and the Brewers are coming up later,
and the Brewers have to win to stay alive.
So we'll be keeping track of all that.
Like Kevin said, we'll be over the scoreboard at 10 o'clock,
and so join us then.
Now back to the stadium for more of the pregame show.
Thank you, James Moody.
We're here at Milton Frank Stadium.
It's about 32 rows up.
As many times as Jeffrey Jones will go up and down his stadium tonight,
he'll need some stretchology before it's over with.
Don't you think so, guys?
I think that's going to be, you know, key.
If he's going to keep and be limber.
Be limber.
Yeah, he'll need that stretchology.
I'm not sure that's a word, to be honest with you.
Yeah, I'm not sure.
We weren't either until you used it on the way down here, but we appreciate that.
Really sell me out, huh?
For sure.
Hey, let's talk with our good friend, John McDaniel, who is our statistician.
We've already introduced him earlier today.
And, John, quarterback Cade Davis has been a pleasant surprise.
Why is he so successful lately?
He has been doing a terrific job of playing on time.
What does that mean?
He is on time with his feet.
On routes and quarterback play, three-step, five-step, seven-step, the drops matter for the timing.
He has got his feet set.
He's in time.
He knows what he's doing.
And he's playing very confident.
He's standing tall in the pocket.
And when his receiver comes open, he is hitting them as they come out of their break.
The guys, he's putting the ball right on the target.
Correct shoulder placement, keeping them out of harm's way.
But his confidence is, you've seen it grow every week, how well he's played.
And his passing, he's playing well enough to be the first-string all-area quarterback.
I agree.
I think he's got a chance for all-region as well.
I think that's very possible for him if he continues to play the way he has and matured so much.
It's been one of the great surprises, maybe not hate surprises, but just really a great job of him this year as well.
Let's talk about, John, this Huntsville team.
They impressed on film, especially up front.
They're doing a terrific job, yeah.
They've got playmakers all over the field.
Starting when I first watched film, the first thing that jumped out was their D-line.
They play a 4-2 scheme, and their front four are not quite as good as Muscle Shoals, but they're in that same league.
They've got a 6'4", 240-pound defensive end who is a junior now that is probably going to get some high Division I offers.
They're possibly an SEC-type player.
Their other side is like 6'3", 230, and a couple of really big interior players.
We're going to call their names a lot, and that's what first jumps out.
The offensive line, we're talking 260s, 280s, two tackles.
One is committed to James Madison.
He's a 6'5", 280 guy.
One of their guards is committed to UNA.
He's a 6'4", 275, two, something like that.
He's going to be playing at the next level.
Quarterback, Kevin, 6'6".
He's the biggest one we've seen this year.
He's got a terrific arm and deceptive speed.
So, all in all, this is going to be the most talented Huntsville team we've seen in years.
It's not a David and Goliath game, but I will say this.
I think Huntsville may have several of Goliath's relatives because they are big guys.
Ten guys over 6'4".
They are a huge team, so we'll keep an eye on that tonight as well.
We talked about how much this Huntsville team is impressed, but Falcons have been pretty impressive too.
Last week, the defense really impressed with a shutout.
And you've got to think, defensive coordinator Harold Wisdom seems to have found a good mix of what he wants out of this team on that side of the ball.
Yeah, I got to talk with my former teammate, Harold, tonight before the game.
He was talking about how much he's proud he is of this group and how well they are meshing now.
In my experience, it takes a while to get comfortable in a defense.
And they're playing in a different type scheme.
But Harold was telling me that he's empowered the kids to be able to make it their own unit.
And they are able to make checks and make calls themselves on the field.
He gives them the reads and they're doing it.
And so a lot of these plays that we're seeing, the kids are making.
It's not coming from the sideline.
And as you've seen it over the season, they're playing a little faster and a little faster
because they're thinking a little less, it's more comfortable.
And, you know, we've seen Coach Wisdom do some terrific schemes.
I believe it was Bob Jones that he kind of threw a curveball at him.
And it was just terrific dropping a player into coverage every time.
So he's doing a great job.
And the kids are playing well, but they're understanding what they want from each other.
That's well said by all my guys here on the crew.
They know their stuff.
I get bragged on them a lot.
They do a great job.
They prepare.
They know the team.
And they do their good job of giving you a great hour-long pregame on the TNT Fireworks
pregame show.
Big thank you to Garner Pierce Otto.
They'll take care of you with a new vehicle coming up on the holidays.
They took care of the Falcon radio crew tonight.
We appreciate them.
The nice vehicle on the ride over to the Rocket City.
And also a shout-out to our good friends at Lost Pizza in Florence.
Lost Pizza will have pizza ready for you all weekend long for that big Alabama-Tendency game,
which you'll hear right here on 93.9 The Score tomorrow night.
Go by before the game.
Get that great couple, two or three pizzas.
Take home with you.
Or stay there and watch the game at the restaurant.
What a festive atmosphere.
That's Lost Pizza in historic downtown Florence.
Countdown to kickoff.
Florence Falcons football continues.

Have you ever seen those halftime scholarships where you have to nail a 40-yard field goal?
Yeah, this isn't that.
I didn't have to write a long essay or audition or make a half-court shot.
I just had to open a bank independent account, use my debit card, sign up for online banking, and have a positive balance.
That's it.
A 20% scholarship to UNA.
When bank independent invests in students like me, they're investing in all of us and the future of our community.
Bank independent.

Back at Milton Frank Stadium in the Rocket City of Huntsville, Alabama.
Kevin Johnson, Mike Albertson, high atop Milton Frank Stadium on the good side.
That's the visitor's side tonight.
Falcon fans filing in.
The Falcon cheerleaders are here.
And the Falcon team is definitely here warming up as they get ready for this big key region matchup
against the Panthers at Huntsville High School.
And, Mike, last week, number two, the point guard, the veteran, the leader, Jay Shot Pearson, he caught a pass.
In a game like this, could he be maybe one that gets some more reps on the offensive side?
Who knows?
I mean, look, you know, I think one of the previous coaches, who shall remain nameless because I don't want to throw anybody out there like that,
but he was talking about a game that he had coached in the past.
And he said, you know, there was one game and it was a big playoff game that he was watching some of the best players in the state
sitting on the sideline because it wasn't their side of the ball.
And he said, never again allow a player of that caliber to not have a hand in the game.
And so, Jay Shot Pearson is that kind of dynamic player where if he's not on – yes, he's a great defender,
but if he's not on the offensive side during these big games and big plays, you know, we're leaving a lot left on the table.
So, just like let's – you know, we're talking about burning the boats.
We might as well burn the boats, put him out there, and really try and create havoc for that defense.
He is that type of game changer that he could really make some plays to help this team win.
Yeah, I won't say his name either, but best of luck to Orange Beach tonight.
They've got a big game down in South Alabama.
And, John, a team like Huntsville, big pass rush, we've talked about that.
Especially with the Ukrainian Grizzly, they call him Michael Choby, number 90.
You'll hear his name called a lot.
How do you counter that if you're an offense coordinator in Cade McGuire?
Well, I've always believed when you've got a pass rush that is this good,
the idea is to tire them out.
That's the only way to get these guys to where they're not playing
and dominating a game is you have to put pressure on them.
And how do you do that?
You do screens.
You do swing passes.
You invite them in and throw it over their head.
Good coach defensive players are going to immediately turn and run,
so now you're having them run upfield and then retrace and run back
towards the ball every time.
I believe in the first half, getting it on the edges, quick passes,
quick screens to the wide receivers.
Plays that are wide for the running back, making them run from sideline to sideline,
trying to get them out because you've got to get them.
They're going to play well in the first half.
You've got to get them tired, and the number of plays has got to be high,
so these guys in the second half aren't playing as well.
By the way, switching over to college just for a minute, how about an update?
Louisville, 14, number two, ranked Miami, zero early in that one on a Friday night.
We'll keep you updated on that one, but that one does raise eyebrows.
A 14-0 game with the Cardinals winning.
That is going to be one we'll keep an eye on throughout the night.
I'm really excited about this game for Florence.
It's going to be interesting.
It will be a tale of two teams, one big and strong, very physical team.
It has a speedster wide receiver in Huntsville, Mr. Grissom.
And then Florence, as you know, a team that has really gone to the pass a lot
and relied on the pass.
And Mike, the passing game, we're not used to it, but that's where our bread and butter
is being for this game.
We found a niche in it and ride with it.
Oh, absolutely.
You know, we have some receivers that are really doing a great job with their hands
getting open and giving Cade a nice, good target.
Cade's been delivering a beautiful ball.
His touch has improved as the season has gone on.
Just his ability to develop as a quarterback over the last two seasons,
you're seeing it week in and week out.
So it's been great.
And so while Florence is traditionally pretty run heavy,
they've been able to distribute the ball through the air a little bit
and, you know, while it's been a change of pace, you know,
just being able to get the ball downfield and get points on the board
is the name of the game, and that's what they're doing.
The Panthers of Huntsville High School, I should say the Crimson Panthers,
I think they still go by the Crimson Panthers, are coached by Jimmy Gay.
He's in his second season.
For a long time he was assistant at Muscle Shoals High School with Scott Basin,
the head coach there, and he and Scott Basin were teammates
on those championship teams for the University of North Alabama.
So we know about that as well.
And he is an excellent coach.
Kenny Marson in his fourth season at Florence High School for the Falcons.
He's been to playoffs each year with the Falcons.
And when he was in his tenure in Tennessee, he won a state championship.
Huntsville is 5-2 on the season.
They are 3-2 in region play.
Florence is 4-3 on the season.
But more importantly, Florence is 4-1 in region play.
They have a half-game lead over the Panthers.
And if a win tonight would really put the Falcons in great shape and put the Panthers in a hole.
But a win by Huntsville would really shake everything up.
And we'd have to keep an eye on where this would go with play.
Florence defeated Grissom last week, 43-0.
Huntsville, well, they had a shutout too.
They shutout Albertville last week.
So, you have both teams playing well, both teams with really good job on defense.
And the defenses have been showing up and showing out for both teams.
And that's going to be something to keep an eye on, which team's defense can make the big play, make something happen.
Let's go down to Jeffrey Jones, who has the head coach, Kenny Marson, with him.
Coach, beautiful night for football, isn't it?
Absolutely.
Great night.
So, seeing a different kind of Huntsville team this year than the one that we're not really used to as far as their strength on both sides of the ball.
Tell us a little bit about it.
Yeah, up front, both sides, D-line, O-line, really big up front.
Obviously, you know, we're small and a little more quicker than they are.
You know, we hope speed wins out versus strength up front.
You know, we've got our skill guys.
We feel like if we can get them in space, we match up well on the perimeter.
They've got a speedster, Grissom at receiver.
We have a good plan to stop him?
Gerard Powell.
Jay Shot Pearson.
Awesome.
No doubt.
I was just talking about Gerard Powers a minute ago to him, comparing him, Jay Shot, to him.
Jay Shot will lock him down.
So, as far as staying focused, you know, we know how important this game is.
The kids know how important this game is.
What's your strategy throughout the week to keep them focused and keep them on the task at hand?
Just worrying about us.
Not worrying about who the opponent is.
Just taking care of us each week.
Just taking care of us each week.
In practice, every rep's got to be about us getting better.
And then we'll worry about it once it kicks off who our opponent is.
Thanks for having me, Coach.
Thank you.
That's Coach Kenny Marson of the Florence Falcons.
I don't mind him saying about Gerard Powers, the great guy that he coached at Decatur.
Went on to have an NFL career after his time at Auburn in about 10 years, I think it was, right at it for the NFL.
And to compare Jay Shot Pearson to him, that's a high compliment to Jay Shot Pearson.
When we come back, we'll continue our way to kickoff.

Tonight, the Florence Falcons invade the largest city in the state of Alabama,
and as they take on the Huntsville Crimson Panthers, they'll have a lot to deal with.
Much like the city of Huntsville, the Crimson Panther football team seems to be larger than the average team.
With towering linemen and a 6'6'' senior quarterback, this will be a tall task for Florence tonight.
It won't be an easy job for the Florence Falcons to fly into Milton Fraga Stadium and swoop home a victory tonight.
However, if the Florence Falcons can continue their momentum from a three-game winning streak
and continue to come up with the big plays at the right time,
maybe tonight the Falcons can dart around the Rocket City and cause some chaos.
One thing is for sure, both teams go into this game controlling their own postseason destiny in many ways,
but a victory tonight by the Florence Falcons would put the boys in blue in the top spot
going into the final week of region play.
It's time to spread our wings and go on a panther hunt.
Florence Falcons football, it starts right now.
Beautiful sunset in Huntsville, Alabama, Milton Frank Stadium, Kevin Johnson, Mike Albertson,
Jeffrey Jones, John McDaniel on the TNT Fireworks pregame show of Florence Falcons football here live with you.
We're about 25 and a half minutes away from kickoff with this key matchup in Class 7A Region 4.
And, you know, this is going to be a big one tonight, Mike.
And one of the things we need is we talked about Jay Shodd Pearson.
You heard Coach Kenny Marson talk about him.
But the other side, there's a young man that has stepped into a role as the starter for a cornerback named Ja'Kylan Jones.
He has stepped into that place and made plays.
He's been impressive.
He certainly has.
And, you know, like we've had some really excellent corners over the last several years.
And, you know, it seems as though we're developing these guys quite well because Ja'Kylan Jones has stepped in.
He's done a great job this year, improved each week.
Over the last couple of weeks, he's had an interception and fumble recovery.
He's jumped some routes and defended a lot of passes.
But he's really stepped up.
And, I mean, even some of the pretty big hits that he's been able to lay on some people,
it doesn't make it easy for any wide receiver to go up and catch the ball when they know they're going to get popped like that.
So he's just done a great job and been a formidable force in that Falcon defense.
We talked about earlier about how important it was to throw the ball and how Florence has found that passing game.
But the running game's got to give us some balance, too.
And that's going to be a big part of this game.
Florence has got to get some positive things out of the run game.
How do they do it?
You know, absolutely.
I totally agree with that.
You know, balance being needed, it keeps the defenses honest.
And just being able to get the ball going.
But being creative with some of the things.
I mean, we have a tendency to kind of run in similar plays, especially in the run game,
where the guys kind of know what's coming and when it's coming.
So being able to get the ball out there, use a little eye candy, use a little jet sweep look every once in a while,
just getting the linebacker's eyes fixated on something else.
But the run game's going to be super important to open things up.
When the Falcons are at their best, they're able to both run and pass the ball.
It's like kind of equal distribution.
But, you know, the last few weeks really pass heavy.
And if we're going to have success tonight, we really need to be able to control the clock and running the ball is where it's at.
John, that leads us right into the question, controlling the clock.
When Florence doesn't do that, and there's been a couple games we have, we've really paid the price when we had time of possession go the other way.
We sneaked out a win at James Clemens, giving up maybe about 25 more plays against them.
But tonight against this Huntsville team, we've got to keep that time of possession pretty even.
It's a very big key, and especially talking about on the defense.
The time of possession, of course, leads to a fresh defense.
And that's less about the specific scheme.
Defensive is far more about everybody being on the same page and being able to play fast and hustle.
Our guys, when they have, we have only won the time of possession battle, Kevin, in one game so far this season.
That game, Bob Jones played our best game, held an undefeated team to under 200 yards of offense and 26 yards rushing for a game.
So that's our best performance, and that shows that we can do, those are, this is the kind of game we're going to have to play.
The way we played against Bob Jones, that effort, that execution tonight is going to be needed to take on a really talented,
as we've mentioned several times, Huntsville, Crimson Panthers.
Jeff Jones on the sideline.
He's standing at the 43-yard line.
My friend JJ, what's it like down there at Milton Frank Stadium, a place we've been before, artificial turf?
But what's the atmosphere like, and what's the weather a little bit like tonight?
So fans are starting to foul in a little bit on the Falcon side.
It's perfect weather.
I mean, it's, in my opinion, 75 degrees is the perfect temperature.
It's going to drop down to probably around 70 degrees by the time of the fourth quarter.
Not a bit of wind in the air.
Beautiful Huntsville night with the horizon getting dark on the, to our west.
It's, now, one thing that is for sure, Milton Frank is probably, it's the biggest stadium we'll play in this year.
It's the biggest stadium that I can't think of a bigger one.
Y'all might be able to help me out on that.
But it's a big stadium, and Grissom and Huntsville don't tend to travel well,
and they don't tend to come when they're at home either.
So, you know, it kind of just depends on what kind of season they're having as far as the crowd goes.
I do anticipate a little bit larger than normal crowd for the Huntsville High faithful tonight,
just because of their season that they're having so far with some success.
But, you know, for the most part, it's not going to be too loud.
The home side and the wayside stands are in between.
I mean, they're far back.
So, you know, the band's going to have to play really loud if they're going to be a factor in this game.
But, you know, I think, thankfully, Florence travels well.
So, I think we're going to have a great crowd.
They're filing in slowly from the gate, and I see a small line forming out there.
So, this is going to be a good night for football.
Cheerleaders, the big blue band are already in the stands here, ready for tonight's game for the Florence Falcons.
A key win here.
Let's look at the potential starting lineup for the Florence Falcons.
Let's start on that offensive side, and let's go right to quarterback, Cade Davis,
who has been outstanding for Florence.
Davis comes in 71 of 106, 944 yards, 67% completion percentage.
He's had 12 touchdowns and two interceptions on the year, and Davis has been a key at 6'4", 215 a senior.
He'll wear number 11.
He'll be throwing the ball to wide receivers, including Kevontae Green, who has 19 receptions on the year,
212 yards and five touchdowns.
Green is 6'1", 215 pounds.
He is only a junior.
On the other side, Jimmy McDonald, 6'1", 170, a senior, 31 receptions, 580 yards, four touchdowns.
Mike Albertson, Jimmy McDonald, just every week we have to mention a little more
just because he keeps making plays week in, week out.
He does, and, you know, like as the season's gone on, he's shown it more and more.
He's made some tremendous plays where balls that are really difficult to catch in traffic.
His ability to concentrate in those plays and be able to reel it in is huge,
but he always finds separation and finds a nice green spot on the field to give Kate a nice target for him to get.
And just his ability to make adjustments while the ball was in the air, too, is, I mean,
I can't sing enough praises about the young man.
He's done a fantastic job this year.
Up front, they're going to have to play their best tonight.
Jacob Harper, 5'11", 225, sophomore.
Where's number 55?
He'll be the center.
On the sides of him will be the guards.
Michael Shanes, 5'10", 220, a senior.
Where's number 52?
And we think Dre Moore will get the start tonight.
5'10", 235, a junior.
Where's number 51?
He's been injured a couple times.
We think he'll be back tonight.
T-Reader, Tavarius Reeder, 6'1", 275, senior will be the right guard at 77 is his number.
And Javion Lewis, where's number 56, 6'4", 220, and a junior.
He'll get the start at left tackle.
On the outside, along with McDonald, by the way, in green, you'll hear John Carter, Goolsby.
Goolsby is only a junior.
He'll be out there some.
He has nine receptions on the year, so Goolsby could be a key factor in a game like this tonight as well.
And don't forget, we've got the H-back.
He's been playing a lot, and that is LaShawn Shepard.
Shepard has been outstanding for the Falcons in the game.
But as you've seen this Falcon team over the past little bit,
they've been sneaking a lot more players in and some skilled positions,
trying to catch teams off guard and trying to make plays.
So no telling who you may see on offense tonight.
At running back, Kalon Triplett, Triplett senior, 5'10", 180.
He leads the Falcons with 500, excuse me, 400 yards rushing, two touchdowns.
And he has a couple of receptions on the year as well.
Elijah Hines will join him as a sophomore, 5'9", 155.
He has had a good season for a sophomore, no doubt.
We're looking for a great career out of him before it's all over with.
The punter, Steven Chivinata, he's the one of the best I've seen this year.
Where's number 85?
He'll be called upon from time to time, hopefully not too much tonight.
And Charlie Graves will be the place kicker.
Where's number 43?
A senior.
He has made two of two on his field goals, including a career-high 42-yarder just last week.
So, again, excuse me, a couple weeks ago against Bob Jones, I think it was.
So, congratulations to him.
Or last week he was actually when he had the 42-yarder.
Let me get that right.
When he had the 42-yarder last week.
And that's big.
Big shout-out to our good friends at Garner Pierce Auto for our vehicle tonight, for our away games.
We appreciate them helping us out and taking care of us as well.
Tonight, Florence and Huntsville meet for the 18th time.
Florence leads the series 13-4.
Last season, Florence won it 34-7 at Brawley Stadium.
But tonight's a new night, a new place, and a new team.
We'll see how the Falcons do on the road at Milton Frank Stadium.
When we come back, more on the TNT fireworks pregame show.
93 and out of the score.
We're back in one minute.
It's football time in Alabama.

Welcome back to TNT Fireworks pregame show.
Kevin Johnson and the crew, glad to be with you.
Florence on the road to take on Huntsville in this key matchup in Class 7A, Region 4.
Mike Albertson, in a game like this tonight, the seniors are often the ones you want to see step up big.
Will they, how can they, and why is that so important?
You know, the senior leadership is always important.
You know, kind of how the team goes is kind of how that senior class looks.
And being able to make deep runs and have big plays in big games, it kind of really rests on the seniors.
You know, really and truly, we've seen it in every sport and every situation.
You know, the Falcon basketball team, they were a senior-laden team.
They made a run, finished second in the state.
You know, these Falcon seniors, they've been around this program.
There's 24 of them, I believe that number's correct.
And just having that kind of senior leadership and experience, you can't replicate it.
Them being on the field is so super important.
And they seem to come up with big plays as the season goes on.
But in games like this, you really need them to take the lead
in these high-pressure situations.
John, winning third down on defense, forcing punts.
Those are huge tonight.
This game, every possession matters.
Yeah, in a game where you anticipate it being close,
you don't want to lose or give a team an extra possession.
Lose one for yourself.
We have been, especially last week, we were really good defensively on third down.
Grissom was three for ten on third downs.
And even the week before, James Clemens, they were five for 15.
So our defense is doing a terrific job of getting the team off the field
and getting the ball back to our offense.
And that also leads to better field position.
If you allow the team to convert a couple of first downs, they've now swapped field position.
And conversely, offensively, last week, we did a great job of staying out of third down.
We only had six attempts, but we were at 50%, three for six.
Pretty good percentage-wise.
So if the Falcons can have that same type of game plan, playing ahead of the sticks,
keeping yourself out of third down plays, the Falcons will have a terrific night.
Look forward to seeing how they try to do it.
Our sideline reporter, Jeffrey Jones, is somewhere down there amongst the midst of people
in tents and blue shirts.
JJ, you still with us, my friend?
I'm here.
I figured you would be.
First of all, we want to say a big shout-out to our good friends at Garner Pierce Auto.
They took care of us tonight.
How about that hemi?
Yeah, so we got a Dodge Ram.
How many times did I mention it on the way over here?
I was like, this thing's fast.
Then we got out and went to eat and had a 5.7 liter V8, at least a V8 Hemi.
And I was like, man, that's what all those commercials are about.
So good truck we came over in.
And, you know, they really do.
They take care of us every week, every away game.
And they do it with a smile on their face, too.
And I will give an update.
Atticus is still the same old Atticus.
All right.
Yeah, I went in there.
Today I was like, this is Atticus, right?
He said, yeah.
I said, Atticus is one of the best behaved dogs I've ever seen.
He said, that's because he comes in here and he deals with people every day.
And he's gotten used to it.
He just chills.
As long as you give him a little pet, he's good.
He's worth going in there and checking him out for himself.
But they also do automotive work, too.
Any kind of shop work you need for your vehicle, they'll take care of your Garner Pierce Auto.
That's a great commercial for them.
I'll throw in for Lost Pizza, tremendous restaurant that's one of our sponsors here for our pregame.
And they also take care of us on Friday night meals.
We appreciate the good folks at Lost Pizza for taking care of us.
They'll take care of you.
They can do wraps for you.
They can do pizzas for you.
Tamales.
Tamales are huge there.
I know JJ loves those.
And just a great atmosphere, great people, great service as well.
We appreciate them at Lost Pizza.
Guys, I'm going to throw this to all three of you.
In a game like this, and I'll start with Mike, bag of tricks, do you open them up and why and where?
I mean, great question.
You know, but really and truly, it's those situations that, you know, you really need to turn the tide in the game.
Those certain situations, they'll come up, you know, various times throughout the game.
But, yes, you open them up.
This is a game that's going to dictate the future, the playoffs, all that other stuff.
And you leave no stone unturned at that point.
So, being able to roll the dice every once in a while is huge.
But you've got to find the right situations for it.
Jeffrey Jones, we've seen Cade McGuire, the offensive coordinator for Florence, go into the bag of tricks on the first play of the season.
He's done it in a couple of other games.
And he seems to have a niche for doing it at the right time.
He does do it at the right time.
And, you know, it's the right play call at the right time.
Sometimes the execution hasn't been there like it needs to be.
But, you know, I was told late this summer that this McGuire kid is going to be going to be something else.
And he has proven to be that.
I heard him speak one time this summer.
He's like, I'm a very patient offensive coordinator.
And he's proven that to be true.
And that's a good thing.
I'm not patient when it comes to offense.
I want to score quick and get the offense off the field so the defense can go back home.
But he's been very methodical.
Some long drives.
Right play calls.
At the right time.
And he's very, very, very impressed with that young man.
You know, Parker Driggers is another one.
He helps out with the play calling as well.
And, you know, honestly, it's got to feel good for Morrison to kind of step back and let these young guns do what they do.
Those young bucks have done a nice job at offensive coordinator and his young assistant coaches.
And, John, on the other side, as a defensive, you've got to remind your guys, the safeties especially,
don't get too caught up in coming up here and stopping that run because they could always pull something out of their hat, too.
Well, that's true.
Certainly, you want to make sure that the worst thing that can happen is to throw it over your head,
especially if you're playing at a safety position.
Talk specifically about that.
The last thing is to get it thrown over your head.
We can come up and make a tackle, a 10-yard gain.
Even if you don't go forward and they meet you at 10 yards, okay, we can play the next down.
Throwing it over your head because you're too antsy, well, now we're going back to offense because they've scored a touchdown.
So, absolutely, you want to stay back certainly until you get the feel of the game and kind of gauge what they're doing
because, as you said, some guys in a big game, they're looking to, if they don't think they have the advantage,
they want to jump out and shock you first.
And, you know, I haven't seen that on film a lot from Huntsville, but I know they've got it in their back.
Absolutely.
So, well said by all my crew here about the possibilities of trick plays and seeing what can happen as well.
Huntsville High School Band is up on the field.
They're getting ready to do the national anthem while they do that.

Florence Falcons football, 93-9 the score.
Kevin Johnson with you and the crew here from Milton Franks Stadium.
What a game it's going to be.
Nice crowd on hand for both teams tonight.
Should be a fun one.
Should be an electric game before it's all said and done.
We're looking forward to bringing you the broadcast here on your home for Falcon Athletics.
93-9 the score.
And I want to run over to our statistician, John McDaniel.
John, our stat of the week each week is brought to us by our good friends at Chick-fil-A.
And you might even tack on something tonight about the Florence Falcons, what they're doing there.
Well, first, let's talk about what's going on in our region this week.
We've got James Clemens versus Austin.
A very consequential game.
You know, Albert Bull is taking on going to Bob Jones and Grissom is playing at Sparkman.
So far, the region shakes out like this.
Austin, they're in first at 4-1.
Also, Florence tied at the same record.
In third place, James Clemens, they're 3-2, but they're also tied at 3-2 with Sparkman and Huntsville.
Bob Jones, they're 2-3 in sixth place.
Albert Bull is not in the cellar.
They're in seventh place at 1-4.
Grissom, 0-5 so far in the region.
But what I wanted to shout out, our junior high cross-country teams this week at the Alabama Regional Championships,
our junior varsity girls placed first, and our junior varsity boys placed second.
Give a special shout-out to Reese Harrison, who is a part of the girls' team and ran this week.
But congratulations to both, boys and girls' teams, for doing terrific in the regional championships.
Attaway, Falcons.
Always like to hear of success there.
In the seventh grade, football team won the championship this week, too.
Congratulations to the seventh grade football team for winning the championship.
We get trophies for that.
I don't know if we get trophies.
We don't get trophies for it.
I guarantee you that.
That's for sure.
Let's look at the captains for tonight's lineup.
Tavarius Reeder will be one of the captains.
Wears number 77.
Zoe Martin, Kate Davis, and Walt Barrett will be the captains for the Falcons tonight.
And the captains are making their way to midfield as they'll be wearing the Falcons.
They'll rode white with blue pants, blue helmets, all crimson over there for the Panthers, all the way from top to bottom with white numerals.
So a great look on the field between these teams.
Let's send it down to Jeffrey Jones as now we have the toss of the coin.
All right, y'all the captains for tonight.
Try to lead your team with some good sportsmanship and keep everybody out of trouble, okay?
Huntsville, you're home.
Florent's your way.
The coin, if we can see it, it's got heads and tails.
There you go.
It's got heads and tails.
What are you going to call?
Tails.
What do you say, John?
It's Friday night.
Yeah, yell loud.
Tails.
And it is all the way high.
I know you're ready for some Panther football.
I know you're ready for some Panther football.
It is.
Stand on your feet right now and get ready for your little Panthers.
Florent's won the toss.
We're going to defer.
Thanks to Walt Barrett.
Two and six on the season on that.
More importantly, four and one in region play.

Now let's go to the press box for tonight's game.
Here's the voice of the Florence Falcons,
Kevin Johnson.
Gorgeous night in Huntsville, Alabama,
and here come your Falcons on the field
with a nice road crowd
and the big blue band playing.
They are the opponent on the road tonight,
but they're going to have to play their best game
against a really big physical team from Huntsville.
Falcons won the toss.
They will defer.
They will kick off.
Huntsville will get the ball to start here.
And real quick,
Mike Albertson,
key for Florence tonight to win this game.
Yeah, I think being able to control the ball,
not only being able to run the ball effectively,
but that field position game
is going to be so crucial
in a matchup that's going to be tight like this.
John McDaniel, real fast.
Yeah, I'll make it real quick.
I'll talk about a specific player.
Their nose tackle, number 99,
DeTron Cawthorn.
He's a terrific player.
He plays on the nose.
If we can get him blocked specifically,
we'll have a good chance at winning.
Back deep for the Panthers.
They'll have a couple of guys back there
playing deep for them tonight to return,
including their running back,
Xavier and Drake and Mikael Ellison.
Also back deep in front of them
is Bryson Graham.
Grissom, excuse me.
Grissom is tremendous.
Kicking off will be Parker Greenhall.
He likes to kick it deep to the left.
Let's see if the Falcons change that up tonight
because there are some speedsters out there
for this Huntsville team.
Falcons will be kicking off left to right
away from the scoreboard
towards the north end zone,
if I'm not mistaken.
And we're about ready for 7-8 football
on a Friday night finally
after two Thursday nights in a row.
Let's do this thing on a Friday night.
Let's go home with a victory
if the Falcons can play well.
Greenhall to boot it away.
Approaches the football
and we're underway.
He chips it this time.
Going to come to the right
and be taken by Grissom
at the 25.
Skipped away at the 30.
At the 35
and goes down at the 37.
and that's where the Panthers
will have it first and 10
when they get the football.
Let's pause for station identification.
This is Falcon football.
The Voice.
High School Falcons.
WYTK FM.
Rogersville.
Athens.
Decatur.
The Shoals.
93-9.
The Score.
First and 10 for the Panthers.
Wyatt Smith is the quarterback.
The 6'6".
Senior wears number 7.
That's one back behind him.
Drake.
Leaves it with Drake.
Drake got away from one.
Couldn't get away from two.
He's met at the line of scrimmage.
All by white jerseys.
Like what I see right there.
Boy, Jaden White
almost got the handoff,
Mike Albertson.
Yeah, being able to get off
the ball real quick.
I mean, already having
an impact in this game.
Jaden White and Nate Pride
do a fantastic job
at that defensive line.
And, you know,
that was just another example.
Grissom to the right,
Ellison to the left
on the second down
and nine play.
This time going to leave it
with Drake again.
Right up the middle.
Nowhere to go.
He's met again.
He's going down again.
No gain.
That Falcon wall
right there again.
And again,
that Falcon defense
coming up big.
Jaden Irons,
the linebacker,
stepping in there.
Jaden Irons
stepped right in that hole there
and, you know,
the running back
had nowhere to go,
wrapped him up right away
and took him down,
making this a third and long
huge possession here.
Huge, huge set of downs
here for the Falcons.
In the backfield now,
moving some people around.
Huntsville will bring in
Dawkins back there,
back to pass Smith.
Got time, looks,
throws down the right,
one-on-one play
going down the sideline
and overthrows everybody
and complete.
Flag on the play.
The flag comes down
and I don't know.
We'll see where it is.
It's going to be a definitive
it's a holding RPI
on the Falcons.
It's got to be a hold
because there was no way
anyone was catching that ball.
It was about 10 yards
over the head
and boy, Jeffrey Jones
with that ball being thrown
that far over the head,
that's a tough break right there.
Tough, tough break
because that ball
was not catchable.
They would never have
gotten under that ball.
I didn't see the hold
of the pass interference
but I did see the ball
was way overthrown.
It will be a 15-yarder
giving the Panthers
the first down at the 47.
Jekyll and Jones
was step-for-step
with Grissom
but don't get it.
Two, three wide receivers
to the left,
one back in the backfield
for the quarterback Smith.
Going to leave it
with his back
up the middle this time
and nowhere to go again
and Florence is there,
no gain.
Florence right now
winning the defensive side
on this,
on the line of scrimmage.
That's a good sign, Mike.
Yeah, that's been huge so far.
They're answering the call
at the defensive line
right now
and being able to
stuff this run game
a little bit.
Very encouraging early on.
Cinco Dawkins,
the carrier,
goes out of the game,
coming back in the game.
Will-Bee Drake
on the second down
and nine play.
Watch for their big tight end.
They have Fleming
6'6 tight end as well,
only a sophomore.
He's big and a big target.
Rolling right,
wanting to throw,
throws the quick out,
complete,
got at the 37,
got the first down
across the 35,
down to the 33.
Sit down route
and it was right open
and goes for about 12.
Yeah, they were able
to find a nice soft spot
in the zone.
They cleared out
the one side
being able to find
a nice little green space,
hit a nice easy pass,
took a,
you know,
that looks like something
that they worked on.
That was a pretty easy play
they must have seen on film.
That play to Ellison.
Three wide outs now
on the first down play
at the 32.
Going to leave it
with his back up the middle again.
This time a little more room
and got a lot more
to the 25,
to the 20,
at the 15
and finally knocked down
before he's chopped down
at the 13.
And boy,
that big penalty,
Jeffrey Jones,
gives them second life
and they have it down
at the 14-yard line.
Third and long.
Can't make this penance
on third and long.
Here we are.
We're going to have
to tighten up right here
because they're having
their way running
the ball with us right now.
Kevin, that's actually
number eight,
Armand Sellers,
who's spelling Drake.
So Sellers come in
at tailback.
You'll see three backs
in there.
Batson to the left
along with Grison
and Ellison,
the wide outs
on this first
and 10 play
at the 14.
Now the Falcon band
trying to make some noise.
Wyatt Smith,
the 6'6 quarterback
stays in shotgun formation.
Falcon show blitz.
They're going to leave it inside
and hit immediately
and brought down immediately.
Oh my goodness.
Somebody timed that one up
and absolutely tattooed
the back there.
Berski.
26 was like a missile.
Mike,
that's what you want to see.
Absolutely.
It was the right call
at the right time.
Bo Berski came right
around the edge
untouched
and almost beheaded
the running back there.
It was almost
a guillotine job there.
That was a loss
of three
for Sanders.
Second down
and 13
at the 16-yard line,
17-yard line.
Band in motion
to the left
is Grison.
I like to throw
the swing
a lot of times.
They look.
Smith wants to throw.
Throws it out here
to Grison.
Caught it at the 20.
At the 15,
gets away,
but not more.
He's caught down
at the 14-yard line.
Only a gain
of about three or four.
That's good defense
right there
by the Falcons.
Good open field tackle
there by Walt Barrett
being able to break down
and tackle the ball carrier
as he only gained
just a couple yards.
Third and a long nine.
The Panthers have to touch
maybe the five-yard line
or just inside the five
to get the first down.
They're on the left hash
going right to left
towards the scoreboard here.
Open and drive.
The tailback
is still Sanders.
Armani Sanders
to the left
of the quarterback,
Smith.
Two wideouts right.
The tight end
to the left.
Back to pass.
Smith looking.
Pressure coming.
Pressure getting there.
Throws it in.
He has to throw it away.
Incomplete.
Falcons dialed up
the pressure
and Peters said
thank you very much
and it'll be fourth down.
That was a great job
there by Peters
coming around the edge
on the outside
getting the quarterback
to move his feet.
He had to throw it
on the run.
No chance of making
that completion.
Late shift
on the D-line
by the Falcons
and it freed up
that defensive end
there to be able
to rush freely.
Surprisingly,
the offense stays
on the field
for Coach Jimmy Gay
on his fourth and nine play
from the 14.
The Falcon band
trying to play big.
Ellison will go
right to the right.
The big tight end
will split out.
Actually, check that.
The tight end will stay left.
It's Grissom in the slot.
Nowhere he is.
Two backs in the backfield.
Big play right here
early in this game.
Smith looks over
the Falcon defense.
Smith puts a man in motion.
Grissom back to pass looking.
Now he rolls to his right.
Pressure coming.
Throws it on the run.
Got a man out there
and it is caught
around the two-yard line
and that's going to be
right at the sticks
and that's enough
for a first down.
Tremendous throw right there
and Grissom came back
to make the play.
Yeah, that was a beautiful
throw on the run there
right on the money.
Great job by the wide receiver
to come back.
Give him a nice target.
Beautiful catch.
As he was getting hit
the Falcons stopped him
right away
but it is a Huntsville
first down.
First down for Huntsville
and Sanders will stay in
at tailback it looks like
on the first and go play
from the two.
Sanders is going to get it
off the right side
and he'll chop in
to the end zone touchdown.
So the Panthers
take the opening kickoff
with the help of a Falcon penalty
and a fourth down conversion
and they go up
six to zero
pending the extra point
with 7.32 to go here
in the first quarter.
Richardson will come out
to attempt the PAT.
A backup quarterback
actually at times
has been the holder
but Richardson will try
the PAT here.
High snap gets it down.
Kick on the way.
Kick is up
and kick is good.
New score.
7-0.
Huntsville with the lead.
This is Falcon football.
We're back in 30 seconds.
Flavor is calling
at Lost Pizza Company Shoals.
Introducing the new
limited time only
margarita pizza.
Fresh basil,
fine ripened tomatoes
and creamy mozzarella pearls
on our homemade crust.
Light, bright
and bursting with flavor.
Try our all new
dry rub wings
seasoned to perfection
with bold smoky spices.
It'll have you
coming back for more.
Don't forget dessert.
Cotton blues
cheesecake slices are here.
Creamy, dreamy
and downright legendary.
These flavors won't
stick around forever.
Only at Lost Pizza Company
Shoals
where the lost get fed.
Back at Milton Frank Stadium.
Florence watches Huntsville
take the opening drive
and go down
and put points on the board.
They lead at 7-0.
That last drive there
from John McDaniel.
Kevin, that was a good start
for the Panthers.
Nine plays,
63 total yards,
four minutes,
21 seconds
and three-yard touchdown run.
But as you said,
aided by the Falcons
pass interference penalty
on a third and long.
Falcons' closest player
are the brothers closer
at the 15.
They watch Huntsville
on film
chip a lot of kicks.
They do a lot
of different things
so you got to be alert
to everything here.
This one along the ground
and followed on
by the Falcons
at the 35.
Lost it.
Ball's loose.
I think the Falcons
got it to 37.
That thing hiccuped
out of a Falcon player
but another Falcon
jumped on it
around the 37.
Thank goodness.
That could have been
a disaster, Mike.
Yes, I mean,
you found the one Falcon
that tried the belly flop
on the ball
instead of scooping it
like a,
scooping it up there.
It was a tough play.
That ball squibbing
on the ground like that,
you're meant to dive on it
but it just hit off the chest
and bounced forward.
Luckily,
a Falcon scooped that up.
That's a tough play
but we got to watch
for that in the future.
Chase Winkles,
I believe,
is the one that may have
fallen on it
to save the disaster.
So Florence will have it
at the 38,
first and 10.
We have three wide outs
out here.
Triplett the back,
Davis the quarterback
against this massive
defensive front.
In motion comes one man
back to the right now
for Florence
on the first down play.
Going to leave it with Triplett
up the middle,
got running room 40,
45,
makes the tackle to the 50.
He's got great speed
to the 40,
to the 35.
They catch up with him
and bring him down to the 28.
That's what you want to see
out of Kalon Triplett.
That's a good sign
right there from the Falcons.
Right.
That being the first play
off the jump,
that's going to be huge there.
If the Falcons
are going to be able
to run the ball
with success like that
and Kalon's going to have
a career night,
we're in for a good game here.
The holes on the offensive line,
there wasn't one,
there were three
for him to hit.
That is what we need
from the Falcons tonight.
First and 10
in Panther territory.
They'll mark him
at the 30-yard line.
Shepard in motion.
We'll come back now
at fullback.
Going to leave it again
with Triplett off the right side.
Stays there, patient,
got a couple yards
across the 30,
down to the 27.
Give him about two or three.
You know,
I'll be honest with you,
it might have been
the first time
that Triplett
seen that big a hole
all year.
No offense,
but it was one of those
where he's like,
wow, there it is,
and he got caught off guard
almost,
but he took off
and made a great run,
and now the Falcons
have it in Panther territory.
Second down and seven.
Yes, they're looking like
they're running up
right behind
Travari's reader.
He's opened up
two big holes thus far,
and if he's going to have
that kind of success,
we're going to have
a run game today.
McDonald and Green
to the left,
Goolsby to the right
on the second seven play.
Back to pass.
Gets rid of it to the middle.
Got it to Goolsby.
Complete at the 18.
He goes down there.
That should be enough
to move the chains.
Jeffrey Jones,
that was right in front of you
in traffic.
There, Goolsby
catches that pass.
Yes, great catch by Goolsby.
Just kind of sat down
in the zone right there.
And that's going to be there.
It's a great throw
by Cade, though, too.
So he had to put it
right on the money,
and he did.
Make it at the 18.
First and 10
for the Falcons.
Triplett still to the back
to the right
of quarterback Davis
who tried to get
the Panthers to jump.
They didn't fall for it.
20 on the play clock.
Not a shot clock
as some SEC coaches
said last week.
Pistol formation now.
Triplett will go behind him.
Now they'll bring him
back in the backfield.
That'll be Shepard.
This time going to leave it
off the right side again.
He found a little running room
to Triplett across the 15.
Pull down from behind
around the 14.
Give him about two or three.
Make sure he's okay there.
He got pulled down awkwardly.
And he pops up
and looks like he's okay.
Second down
and we'll call it
gain of about four.
Second down and six.
Well, second down and seven
we'll say as they move it there.
Falcons right to the line
of scrimmage.
Two to the left
and one to the right.
McDonald and Green to the left.
Try to get the Panthers
to jump again.
Now they'll look back
to Cade McGuire
to get the check.
Again, this Panther defense
who runs a 4-2-5 defense.
We don't see that often
but four down linemen.
Davis straight drop.
Looks right.
Throws in middle
and that one knocked away.
That time the Panthers
were waiting on that one.
Fool me once.
Shame on us.
Or shame on them.
That second time
they didn't get fooled
and brings up third down Mike.
President Bush
would be proud of that.
Yep.
That's right about that.
Third down Mike.
Nailed that one.
Yes.
Goolsby turned back
around for that one.
The defensive back
or linebacker
stepped right in that zone
and put his hand in the way.
They were ready for that one.
We're going to look like
to kind of run some routes
off that now.
Maybe like a stop and go
or something like that.
We'll be running
a two-man crew
for the rest of this game too
by the way.
As we go on third down
quick snap.
Davis wants to throw.
Gets rid of it as he was hit.
That should be a flag
over there for interference
but no call.
And we're going for Goolsby again.
And they say no call.
I thought he got hit
I thought he got hit
early there, Mike.
Yeah, I mean,
it was hard to see from here.
It was probably about
a simultaneous situation
where the referee gave it
to the Huntsville Panthers
but came through that ball
only where his receiver
can get it.
Looked a little low
but that's where
the window was.
Goolsby did a good job
trying to get his hands on it.
31-yard field goal
attempt coming from Graves.
Gets the kick on the way.
He has distance
but that one
is not going to be there
I don't believe, is it?
No good.
No good.
Wide to the left.
He pulled that one to the side
so the Panthers defense holds.
They lead it 7-0
with 5.08 to go here
in the first quarter.
We're high atop
Milton Frank Stadium
and it was slow
to get the official
to come give the signal
but it was wide to the left
and come over the great drive
no points.
That's got to be disappointing
for this Falcon offense, Mike.
Now the defense really needs
to come up to a big stop.
Right, you know
and that's one of the hard parts.
You know, the special teams
is tough
especially, I mean
we're kicking
in the 30-35 yard range.
That's not a gimme
at the high school level
so, you know
and just missed it.
Had plenty of leg
just pulled it just a little.
Sanders is the tailback again
on this first down play.
Going to leave
with Sanders
off the right side.
Got a little running room
to the 23.
Pushes forward
to the 25
and finally
will they blow the whistle?
They will
and the Falcon
start pushing him back
but they're going to give him
about 5 yards
maybe even 6.
I don't know
I just
continue to let them push
and push forward
until they blow the whistle.
You just got to keep
pushing and pulling.
Right
and that scrum
you know
you got to stop
the pile from moving
and the Falcons
were still giving up yardage
so they let them play.
Grissom, Ellison
Batson
all wide to the left
or to the right.
Now Grissom
will come to the left
you got to watch him
they like to go
one-on-one with him
Carter Graves
no
yep
Carter Graves
I think he's now
playing defense
we'll check him up.
Again
they're going to lead
with the back
off to the left side
got a little running room
and got the first down
across the 30
and pushed out of bounds
at the 34
come to the short side
and found something
on that left side
that time
and it moved the chains.
Yeah
they worked the left side
they were able to get
and seal the edge
to the outside
being able to pick up
several yards
for an easy first down.
Shotgun formation
again for Wyatt Smith
gets the snap
again going to lead
with the back
right off the left side
same place
this time he gets hit
at 39
and they push him
back at the 40
gain of about 4 though
and I don't like
what I'm seeing right now
is there's a lot of push
in this running back
it's getting a lot of yardage
real quickly
for this team
of Huntsville
moving it forward
and they're running
real quick
play after play
looks almost turbo
Armani
in there
back to pass
throws a quick out
got it to Grissom
Gnolls
when it was knocked away
oh it was almost intercepted
it would sit there
but it'll bring up
third down at 6
that one could have been
a pick 6 for Florence
yeah Peter stepped
right in the line
of fire there
was able to get
his hands on the ball
couldn't reel it in
but you know
the Panthers
definitely caught
a break there
Armani Settlers
bend the tailback
Grissom now
will come wide
to the left
Fleming will be
the tail
tight end
they'll bring in
a second tight end
as well
that will be Raleigh
Drake is now back
at tailback KJ
alright here we go
Drake at tailback
they're going to leave
with Drake off the left
side
skips across the 42
but nothing there
he was knocked down
only a gain of about 2
nice job by the defense
coming up making a play
Sistrunk and friends
said no sir
Zoh Martin came in
right off the bat
had the initial hits
Sistrunk cleaned it up
it was a great job
by the Falcons
to stop that one
fourth and a long four
you don't need to jump
off sides
no penalties
and be alert here
but Richardson
will come in
to punt it away
set up a return here
let's not try to block
this one
no reason to jump
off sides
Jagger Richardson
is a really good
athlete back there
at punter
just line up on sides
and don't do anything
stupid Florence
good snap to Richardson
he gets rid of it
and everybody stays away
Pearson says get away
from it
going to take a
Huntsville bounce
inside the 30
will be down
at the 22
and that's where
Florence will have it
with 303 to go
in the first
trailing 7-0
don't forget
tomorrow
3.30 pregame
6.30 kickoff
Alabama Tennessee
the third Saturday
in October
it will be here
on 93.9
the score
tune in for the
three hour pregame
and the kickoff
it's going to be
something special
Alabama and Tennessee
from Tuscaloosa
here on 93.9
the score
Falcons will have
to go 78 yards
it was a good sign
to see the running
game going
Triplett will stay
in the game
now let's see
if the Falcons
can get that
passing game going
it is a great
pass rush
that this Panther
team has
a four man front
went back
to the right
of the quarterback
now a man
coming in motion
is Goolsby
so have trips
to the right side
Davis gets the snap
going to look
to throw across
the middle
Goolsby wide open
and nobody's with him
at the 40 to the 50
it's a foot race
to the 40
to the 30
one man chased him
to the 20
to the 10
they will not
catch him
touchdown
Florence
Florence
strikes big
and Goolsby scores
and what a throw
by Davis
that was a great job
that was a great job
there
Goolsby
slanded right over
the middle
Davis hit him
in stride
Goolsby
turned upfield
and it felt like
he was about to trip
and run out of steam
gained his feet
and outran everybody
great job by Goolsby
to keep his feet
under him
great pass by Davis
great call
by the offensive coach
touchdown Falcons
Graves
try to tie it up
good snap
good hold
kick up
kick is good
let's tie it up
at seven
Falcons strike big
252 to go in the first
we're tied at seven
we're back in 30

the Falcons strike big
tied up at seven
78 yards
from Davis to Goolsby
one play
one drive
and Goolsby goes
to the end zone
Graves ties it up
new ball game here
with 252 to go
and now Greenhall
to boot it away
to some dangerous
Panthers that are beat
and this one's going to go
all the way back
to Ellison at the nine
Ellison comes up to the left
hit and goes away
stays on his feet
but gets back to about the 25
before he's tripped up there
and that's where the Panthers
have it first and 10
just around the 25 yard line
and Jeffrey Jones
Goolsby had to catch
his footing under him
he caught it
he almost lost his footing
but he's got his feet under him
and went all the way
he did catch it
he did almost lose his footing
but once he saw that hole
or once he saw that
there was no one between him
and the goal line
I just started going
you better score
you better score
you better score
and he outran everybody
to the sideline
or to the pylon
great job by Goolsby
concentrating and keeping his footing
Wyatt Smith
going to hand it off
to his back
coming off the left side
got much run room here
and he tries to make it
hit hard down
at the 34
after a gain of nine
he got tattooed there
by Sistrunk
who come and drilled him
Drake gets up okay
it'll bring up second down
and short one
the left side
Mike seems to be
where they find their success
running the ball
they've really attacked
the left side
of this defense so far
and they've found
a little success
the last two drives
Grissom in motion
they're going to give it
to Drake right up
the middle again
he's got running room
across the 40 to the 45
got the first down
at the 46
and just bringing Grissom
in motion
changed the eye level
of that Falcon defense
yes and the hole
that was a great job
by the running back
to cut up the field
and find the hole
you know he didn't
get off tackle
like he was trying
the Falcons
cleaned that up
but with that hole
that he found
he was able to find
some nice yardage
for a first down
by Smith
to give it to Drake
again
up the middle
this time he's hit
at the line of scrimmage
but he pushes far
to the 49
as the Falcon
reached out to grab him
and pulls him down
after a gain of about 3
but John they're going fast
they're going quick
this is something
maybe they saw on film
because we haven't seen
Huntsville do this all year
that's a great point
we have not
they run in a lot
faster tempo
than they have
in on film
and our guys
weren't anticipating it
for example
in the last play
we had an unblocked
defender in the hole
and he out
simply just overran
the play
and running back
was able to get
a 3 yard game
to Tidey and Seti
Raleigh and Fleming
for Huntsville
Florence still
with three men's down
3-4 defense
two wide outs
to the right side
got to know that
because Smith
can hit them
at any time
Grissom's a big time
player
at midfield
this time
going to leave it
inside again
skips far
and he's not going
to get to midfield
if they give him
midfield
they'll give him
right at the 49 yard line
but he's hit
right at the 50 yard line
and he'll bring up
third down
and about six
and Jeffrey Jones
that's a big play
right there
and now
somebody injured
right there
Bo Berski
great anticipation
right there
he's playing
his position
and he might be
playing in a couple
other positions
as well
so great job
by Bo
we've got to
keep him out here
big play
did we stop the clock
for a particular reason
Kevin
you know what
the Falcons
played with 10
the Falcons
played with 10 players
maybe on that play
it's been stopped
for up until now
104 and counting
this third down
and six to go
they have to get
just past the 45
to Sunsville
to get a first down
two backs in the backfield
for Smith
Smith back to pass
looks down the middle
wants to throw
now he's being rushed
out of the pocket
he's got a little running
flips it open
wide open
Drake couldn't catch it
he had him wide open
for the first down
Sanders that is
and Sanders
couldn't bring it in
it brings up fourth down
that's a break for Florence
it definitely was a break
he was wide open
went right through his hands
doinked off his helmet
went in the air
Panthers were lucky
that that wasn't scooped up
by a Falcon
before it hit the ground
but it looks like
the Panthers are going to
try and punt this one away
getting the Falcons
ball again
this is where Florence
needs to be very careful
on defense
line up well
and watch for the fake
right back to
Richardson
and he's going to
punt it away
short punt
going to be bounced
and taken by Pearson
right up the middle
he's knocked down at the 23
but J-Shot
probably saved
10-15 yards
just by catching
the punt Mike
yes he definitely did
he was able to just
take the ball straight ahead
he knew he was about
to get hit
he just kind of
took it up an extra
three yards
to get the Falcons
a little breathing room
but if he let that ball go
that was probably
going to be pinned
within the five
38 seconds to go
tied at seven
Florence got back
on the board
on one play
from 78 yards away
when it was
quarterback to quarterback
really
John Carter Goolsbee
who had played
quarterback some early
catches one from
Kay Davis across the middle
and outraces
all the Panthers
78 yards
and we're tied at seven
two wide outs
to the left
one to the right
against this four man front
man in motion
comes to the right side
Davis gets the snap
looks to throw the quick out
got it out there
and incomplete
watch out
that was going to
have been dangerous
that's a really good
incomplete pass
it really was
been a loss of
loss of yardage
and maybe a fumble
that was to Green
that couldn't bring it in
and the Panthers
were right on top
of that one
Panthers were right
on top of that
Green heard the footsteps
wandering no part
and just kind of
went right through
his hands there
you know that was
just a fact of the matter
you hear the footsteps
you take your eye
off the ball
for a second and miss
so with 34 seconds to go
second down
and ten for the Falcons
they'll have three wide receivers
two to the right short side
now three to the right side
again
with Goolsbee coming
this way
straight drop again
has time
now flushed out of the pocket
throws on the run
and that one's nearly intercepted
knocked away
and they'll bring up
third and ten
the pressure was coming
from the outside
Choby is starting to make
a presence on a little bit
Barnes trying to double team
him when they can
there
John you see that
quite often
he is doing
he has a terrific
get off
he is almost
he's not
he's not off sides
but he's almost
beating the ball
to the quarterback
at his speed
and we hit
the tackle
and a running back
and he still
affected the play
we don't run
many draw plays
not sure we even
have the draw play
in our game
but this would be
a good place
we have four wide outs
now
four wide outs
in the game
against the four man front
back to pass
pressure coming
look to throw it
going down the sideline
one on one
but overthrows everybody
as Green tried to
double move
and couldn't get open
and the Falcons
will have to go
three and out
and punt it away
and then give the
Panthers credit
they made good plays
right there
what I'm not
not a big fan of
three pass plays
in a row
do not fall in love
with the pass play
you got to have
balance here
and just
that's tough
right there
giving the ball
right back
Mike that last
touchdown
the Goolsby hit
because the defenders
were running down
to catch the run
Panthers
bringing pressure
on this punt
shoving
the punt away
good snap
and he gets it away
good punt
driving all the way
back at the 41
is Grissom
trying to go back
to the right side
he's got great speed
gets by
Jekyll and Jones
45 to the 50
and got a block
and stepped out of bounds
he were turning
about 15 yards
don't see a flag
on the far side
I thought there might be
no it's on this side
it's uh
I think you're going
against the team in red
yes Nelson Nellie
got tangled up
and uh
and kind of
pushed the ground
and he kind of
laid on him for a minute
so I think that's
going to be against them
I would think
but we don't know
we'll see
it would be at the 43
it was a punt return
of about 17 yards
for Grissom
who has tremendous speed
to transfer in
from East Limestone
High School
this year
they've had several
transfers to come in
over the past two years
William Gay
the coach there
at Huntsville High School
he's developing
his team
holding against Huntsville
a 10 yard penalty
they call it
from the end of the run
so to go back
into the Panthers territory
and one official
is marking it back
at the 41
the other one
is marking it
at the 43
oh he went to
pick up his flag
so let's see where
they're going to
mark the ball now
10 yards from the 41
there you go
so marking it back
to the 31
it's not from where
the play ended
but where the penalty
happened
so it goes all the way
back to the 32 yard line
he only moved it
9 yards
he was only going to
move it 7
coming to the close
of the quarter
8 seconds to go
Wyatt Smith
the 6'6 quarterback
for Huntsville
will have 3 wideouts
including Grissom
wide right
Ellison
and Batson
to his left
the one back
in the backfield
is Drake
see if this Falcon
defense can get
a turnover
bring a man in motion
leave it inside
Drake off the right
side
and he's hit
bounces far
to the 45
stays on his feet
and broke a tackle
now he's out
loose
out to the 45
to the 40
to the 35
chased down by
a host of Falcons
and drug out of bounds
inside the 35
and that's where
the Panthers
will have it
when we come back
for the second quarter
but the Panthers
strike big
and get in Falcon
territory
after 1
we're tied at 7
it's a good one
Florence and Huntsville
this is Florence
Falcon football
we're back
in one minute
have you ever seen
those halftime
scholarships
where you have to
nail a 40 yard
field goal
yeah this isn't that
I didn't have to
write a long essay
or audition
or make a half court
shot
I just had to
open a bank
independent account
use my debit card
sign up for online
banking
and have a positive

that's it
a 20% scholarship
to UNA
when bank independent
invests in students
like me
they're investing

Florence
is tied
with Huntsville
7-7
but the Panthers
broke off
a big run
on the last play
of the quarter
all the way
down to the
20-yard line
by the way
an update
on that
James Clemens
Austin game
I believe
it's 10-7
Jets
lead Austin
right now
but the Falcons
got all hands
full right here
four wide outs
for the Panthers
Drake
the tailback
on this
first and 10
play
Smith will bring
Fleming
his tight end
in motion
they're going to
hand it off
to Drake
who leaves
following him
and he's hit
around the
20-yard line
but he pushes
far inside the
15
all the way
down to about
the 12
and still pushing
before they blow
the whistle
they give him
nine right there
that's not a good
sign that this team
is going to allow
them push and push
and the size
difference on those
scrums
it's not good
for Florence
no definitely
not good for Florence
but you know
if there's still
if there's still
forward progress
to be had
they're going to
allow them to play
Drake the tailback
still I believe
there
on this second
down and one
play from the
11
again they may
run the same
play again
and they do
they got it
right with them
up the middle
again he gets
far to skips
far to got a
first down
down to the
five
and John
you talked
about last
week or two
weeks ago
how James
Clemens ran
some fold
plays inside
where guards
were folded
behind the
center
they're bringing
the tiny
into fold
inside
and going
in the middle
right now
and attacking
not really
complex
they're using
him as a
lead blocker
number 87
but he's a
6'6
245 pound
lead blocker
so it's
not your
average guy
and they're
running it
right at us
and we're
just having
trouble stopping
I'll be
shocked if they
pass it
I'll put it
that way
going to leave
him off the
left side
this time
Drake cuts
back
and got
it down
to the
two
he's showing
a little
wiggle
right there
and all
the way
down to
even the
one yard
line
it'll bring
up second
down and
goal
and Huntsville
knocking on
the door
boy this is
where you just
got to bring
everybody in the
house right now
maybe guess a
little bit
that big
offensive line
for Huntsville
starting to lean
on Florence
a little bit
with 1040
to go
Drake is
still the
tailback
on the right
of the
quarterback
Smith
going to
lead with
Drake
going left
he gets
in there
pushes
forward
and he'll
have a
touchdown
I do
believe
yes
he gets
in
gets the
call
and with
1030
to go
Huntsville
takes the
lead
13-7
as Drake
adds to
it
we thought
this might
be a low
scoring game
guys we
may be
just the
opposite
we don't
know
they're doing
a really
good job
of keeping
us off
balance
running some
fast plays
running some
slow plays
tempo that
is
pushing the
Falcons
and that
was all
Drake on
that drive
he started
with a big
run and now
Cumberworth
will attempt
the PAT
good snap
the kick
is on the
way and
the kick
is up
and the kick
is good

Kevin Johnson
the crew
with you
John
that last
drive for
the Panthers
Kevin
it was
five plays
70 yards
about a
minute and a
half that
came off
the clock
pretty quick
drive
and of
course
just
mashed the
Falcons
with a
one-yard
touchdown
all on
the ground
it started
with the
big 50-yard
run from
Drake
and he
ends it
with a
one-yard
touchdown
this kick
is going
to be
taken by
the Falcons
on the
sideline there
and finally
knocked out
of bounds
these kicks
are so
different
they throw
it everywhere
they're going
a little
direction
left and
right
the Falcons
will have
it around
35-yard line
hard to see
sometimes where
it is
but it'll
be first and
10 for
Florence
yeah
they're just
looking
it's a little
bit of an
onside look
without running
the traditional
onside
so just
being able
to kick
it
squib it
make it
make a little
havoc out
there for
the Falcons
it's been
bouncing around
like crazy
they've been
able to wrap
it up
this time
around
so
but we
just got
to make
sure that
we have
guys with
good solid
hands
that don't
freak out
too often
on those
plays
on those
special teams
might need a
couple of
short stops
out there
I think
a couple
short stops
some good hands
out there
first and 10
for Florence
at the 35
going to give
it inside
to Triplett
who's hit
at the line
of scrimmage
this time
and he goes
nowhere
he'll lose
a yard
maybe
or get back
to the line
of scrimmage
I think
they'll give
him the line
of scrimmage
maybe
depending
he'll lose
a half yard
maybe a yard
second down
and 11
we'll say
yeah that
that play
was dead
to the rights
the Panthers
were in the
backfield
as Triplett
already had
the ball
and the
offensive line
was already
crashed in
on
that really
had no
chance
of success
right off
the jump
Florence
Trips
to the
left
this time
pistol
formation
I got
one and
one out
here to
the left
with everybody
let's see
what happens
but I think
a Falcon
may have
moved a little
early
nope
was it a
Panther
Panther
was in the
neutral zone
and beyond
I saw
Falcons
raise up
and I was
looking at
the wide
receivers
but it's
a five
yarder
against
the
Panthers
and it
brings up
second down
and six
so the
hard count
works
game five
back after
that play
Jimmy
McDonald
gets free
here
went for
the hard
count
again
nothing
happening
now they'll
reset
with 17
on the
play
clock
Triplett
will go
to the
right
of the
quarterback
Davis
in
shotgun
formation
10
on the
clock
still
getting
the
play
in
got to
hurry
a
little
bit
now
eight
on the

clock
Davis
gets
everyone
set
straight
drop

got it
to the

43
45
to the
50
that's
green
and he's
knocked
down
at the
43
comes up
and I
think
he's
hurting
a little
bit
he's
had a
hamstring
problem
this
week
and I
think
that
thing
may
have
got
him
again
he
looked
like
he'd
gotten
shot
from
back
in

the

Kevante
Green
on the
reception
for
Florence
is the
injured
player
he had
caught
it
turned
up
field
got
it
to
the
45
and
still
running
and
nobody
touched
him
when
he
went
down
he's
walking
off
with
a
little
weight
on
it
but
he'll
be
substituted
for
by
a
couple
of
players
first
and
10
though
for
the
Falcons
at
the
45
I'm
not
sure
we'll
see
Kevante
the
rest
of
the
game
though
it
looks
like
they
may
be
done
after
that
he had
a tweak
of the
hamstring
it might
have got
him
again
going to
leave
with
triplet
off the
right side
stays
on his
feet
but hit
the line
of scrimmage
and they
push him
back
no
gain
second
down
and
10
right
now
John
McDaniel
you talked
about this
defensive
line
they're
starting
to flex
their
muscles
doing
a
really
good
job
of
both
those
defensive
tackles
are
just
cramming
up the
middle
of the
line
from
really
B
gap
to
B
gap
is
a
no
go
zone
with
those
guys
Goolsby
go
wide
to
the
right
I
think
that
is
Elliott
in
the
slot
I'll
double
check
it
and
to
the
left
is
McDonald
one
back
behind
the
quarterback
Davis
is
triplet
second
down
and
11
four
man
front
now
five
on
the
front
straight
giving
away
to
triplet
trying to
find a
hole
nowhere
to
go
he's
not
backwards
he
loses
another
yard
again
just
two
or three
guys
in all
red
coming
up
making
plays
momentum
has swung
to
Huntsville
no doubt
Mike
right
early on
the Falcons
had a
little push
and everything
the Panthers
have made
some adjustments
can't really
get the
running game
going
and so
it's
going to
be a
third
and very
long
year
for the
Falcons
well
the Falcons
could have
snapped it
they had a
guy running
off for
Huntsville
they didn't
do it
try to get
the Panthers
to jump
they have
two wide
outs to
the right
one to
the left
on this
third down
money play
all the
Huntsville
Panthers
sitting
kind of
at the
first down
marker
and time
out
taken by
the Falcons
we'll do
the same
739 to go
here in the
first half
Lawrence trails
by seven
we're back
after this
30 second
time out

an appropriate
lead-in song
on the third
Saturday in
October
on a Friday
night
Florence
Falcon
football
on 93
now the
score
Kevin
Johnson
and
friends
here with
you
Falcons
trail it
14-7
with 7.38
to go
in the
half
and they
face
a third
and 12
at
midfield
they have
to get
to 35
yard line
and four
first down
from their
47
Davis
the
quarterback
will put
trips
to the
right
with four
wide
receivers
on the
left
back
to pass
has
time
this
time
Davis
can
get
rid
of
it
down
the
left
sideline
going for
McDonald
101
can he
get there
and get
it
he's being
hit
yes
flags
come
and the
flags
will come
and that
was a
no doubter
he had
two steps
it looked
like
and finally
the flag
was thrown
and the
Falcons
will get
a good
call
there
and a
break
because
they'll
get a
first down
now
I
think
a
break
is
a good
call
for it
if
the
Panthers
had
just
turned
his head
around
and tried
to make
a look
back at
the ball
I don't
know if
they throw
that flag
he was
face guarded
the whole
way
and once
Jimmy
came back
to the
ball
he was
able to
get a
little
contact
there
by the
Panthers
bad
situation
there
for
the
Panthers
but
looks like
first down
Falcons
Jeffrey
Jones
did you have
a chance
to catch
it
possibly
that's
a tough
one
right
there
I
think
it
was
pretty
close
but
it
would
have
been
a
miraculous
catch
that's
for sure
Gillespie
wide
right
McDonnell
wide
left
went back
in the
backfield
behind
the
quarterback
Cade
Davis
is
triplet
he's
going
all
the
way
first
and
10
he'll
go to
the
left
of
the
quarterback
now
Shepard
will come
in motion
to the
left
Davis
gives
it
off
to
Triplet
got
it
to
McDonnell
down
at
the
25
yard
line
gain
of
about
seven
will
sit
down
route
and
he
catches
it
right
on
the
ground
almost
it
was
a
little
RPO
situation
there
Cade
ripped
the ball
right
out of
a
triplet
belly
there
and
was
able
to
deliver
a
ball
to
McDonnell
with
great
hands
on
that
play
wasn't
the
best
pass
I've
seen
all
night
but
McDonnell
was
it
down
in
three
play
clock
at
15
Falcons
at
the
Huntsville
25
trying
to
tie
this
one
up
if
they
can
shift
back
to
the
right
for
the
tight
in
H-back
going to
leave
with
triplet
off
the
right
side
look
stutter
steps
in
the
lane
got
a
little
bit
of
running
room
but
short
of
the
first
down
he'll
bring
up
maybe
third
and
one
J.J.
Yep
about
third
one
Lawrence
is
bringing
in
the
heavy
package
and
they're
going
quick
and
Burski
will
come
in
along
with
Zomart
and
Irons
looks
like
Zos
the
tailback
Jaden
White
is
your
tight
in
15
on
the
clock
under
center
is
quarterback
Cade
Davis
Davis
looks
back
gets
the
play
still
has
time
with
8
seats
the
defense
they
switch
in
they
come
in
a
little
bit
and
now
a
whistle
and
a
time
out
or
they
go
flag
on
the
Falcons
shifted
in
with
their
offensive
linemen
but
the
offensive
linemen
were
they
set
or
not
was
the
question
I
don't
know
if
they
were
set
but
if
one
of
them
was
set
and
he
raised
in
what
was
third
and
one
went
to
third
and
six
and
all
that
played
against
you
right
there
Mike
with
what
the
official
had
to
say
but
you
know
we're
going to
have
to run
a
different
play
here
on
third
and
five
and
it
just
stinks
JJ
could you
tell if
the
linemen
had
their
hand
down
they
did
not
I
wouldn't
think
that
would
have
been
a
penalty
but
no
way
you
can
argue
no
instant
replay
553
and
counting
third
and
six
Falcons
bring
back
their
regular
package
and
going
to
have
to
hurry
they
got
five
on
the
clock
down
to
one
and
now
he
has
to
call
time
out
he'll
call
the
time
out
with
540
to
go
this
is
Falcon
football
come
back
and
see
it's
football
time
in
Alabama
the
players
are
hitting
the
field
the
cheerleaders
are
firing
up
the
crowd
the
drum
majors
striking
up
the
band
and
we
all
stand
to
the
national
anthem
this
is
congressman
Robert
Adderholt
while you
cheer
your
favorite
team
this
season
I'll
be
on
President
Trump's
team
shaking
things
up
in
Washington
when
we
stand
on
conservative
principles
it's
a win
for
everyone
I'm
Robert
Adderholt
and I
approve
this
message
paid
for
by
Adderholt
for
Congress
gorgeous
night
for
high
school
football
in the
state
of
Alabama
as we
get
to
the
eighth
week
here
Florence
trails
Huntsville
on the
road
14-7
and face
third
and six
at the
Panthers
27
it's
four down
territory
probably
two wide
outs to
the left
one to
the right
the back
in the
backfield
is
still
tripling
he's
going
all
the way
Davis
goes
up
checks
with
this
line
looks
back
to
the
sideline
gets
the
play
gets
a
four
or
five
man
front
gives
it
off
the
triple
note
throws
across
the
middle
and
it's
caught
by
Goolsby
and he's
got the
first
right at
the
19
yard
line
that's
a
great
catch
by
Goolsby
and even
a better
throw
by
Davis
that was
great
hands
by
Goolsby
has
done
a
great
job
this
year
slant
play
Falcon
first
down
Jay
shot
Pearson
and
Carter
Graves
will come
into the
game
now
how about
that
Goolsby
coming off
a little
tender
on that
play
got the
ankle
rolled up
a little
bit
running
it off
Florence
in the
huddle
with 17
they'll go
sugar
huddle
and come
out of
there
and Pearson
at
quarterback
with
Triplett
in the
backfield
Pearson
gonna look
and give
it off
to Triplett
going
outside
use the
speed
got away
to the
20
to the
15
to the
10
to the
5
down
the
sideline
he dives
he's in
to see
if it's
going to
count
we've got
a flag
on the
play
we're going to
have a flag
holding on a
wide receiver
Kevin
let's wait
and see
they will
mark him
down at
the 1
but the
yellow
handkerchief
come out
and they'll
call it
against
Florence
and I think
you're right
John
it was
it was
hard to
see from
here
but it
was
certainly
he was
really
engaged
with him
and we're
seeing what
Jayshod
on the
field does
that defense
had to
stay
and Jayshod
did a
great job
of milking
that play
for all
it was
worth
getting
triplet
to kind
of float
to the
outside
a little
bit
they had
to stay
with Jayshod
there
put it
in his
belly
and he
had enough
burst
at that
point
to beat
everybody
to the
outside
that was
a great
job
by the
Falcons
first
and 13
and Pearson
is going
to stay
quarterback
if I'm not
mistaken
yeah
again
looking to
give it
this time
to triplet
that gets
into the
25
down to
the 22
21 yard
line
knock down
there
he'll gain
about two
it'll bring
up second
down
and 12
under five
minutes to go
Florence trails
by seven
Elliott will
come in the
game now
for Graves
and Pearson
will come out
too
or is he
going to
stay
they're
going to
leave him
in there
on offense
and put
him out
at wide
receiver
now
so Davis
the quarterback
with 18
getting a
call from the
sideline
he'll have
Pearson
and
McDonald
wide to the
left
Goosby to the
right
10 on the
clock
you gotta
hurry up
again too
slow
6 on the
clock
5
4
Davis
just gets
a snap
away
looks to
give a
throw
out to the
sideline
and complete
got it
to Pearson
at the
11
and catches
it
they'll mark
him out
the 12
he may
just be
short
JJ
it was
right in
front of
you
he's
about
a yard
short
maybe
that's
about
right
maybe
yard
and a half
short
now the
heavy package
will come in
just outside
the 12
at the 12
it'll say
third and
two
and
here comes
Davis
in the
quarterback
he'll go
under center
Jaden
White is your
tight end
and Zoe
Martin
is your
tailback
first
get
H-back
gonna leave
it with
Zoe
Martin
and Zoe
wiggles
his way
got the
first down
across the
10
he'll push
far down
at the
8
I'm not
sure I
substitute
right here
I may
leave that
big package
in right
now Mike
I mean
if you're
going to be
able to get
pushed like
that and
just lean
on the
guys
and get
that
you're
inside
the 10
you might
as well
let it
ride
at the
8 yard
line
and the
Falcons
will go
first
and go
and they'll
go quick
under center
again
Davis
tried to
get the
Panthers
to jump
they didn't
fall for it
20 on the
play clock
Florence
trying to tie
this one up
possibly with
a touchdown
Davis
going to
leave it
with Martin
again
this time
no
Martin
couldn't
go
a whole
lot
that way
he got
maybe
a yard
with that
we'll
call it
no gain
even
second down
and go
from the
8
now
the Falcons
will bring
Pearson
back in
they may
go to
that
you got
McDonald
you got
Elliott
Pearson
is going
to wide
receiver
Triplett
coming back
in at
tailback
they'll go
trips
to the
left
again
got to
hurry up
with these
play calls
got a little
faster here
14 on the
play clock
just now
getting set
trips
to the
left
the back
is
Triplett
Triplett
if he could
get outside
of the
right
can go
going to
leave
it
up
throw
it
across
the
middle
complete
to the
three
to the
two
spin
down
to the
one
going to
be close
they got
it
touchdown
Florence
they give
it to him
it was
close
but a
touchdown
for
Florence
and I
believe
that's
Jayshod
Pearson
on the
catch
he makes
it into
the end
zone
and Florence
is one
point
away
I
didn't
think
he
was
going
to
get
it
but he
comes
back
and the
official
laces
yep
touchdown
we'll take
it
no
replay
there
I thought
it was
a little
short
but you
know what
hey
we're on
the road
we shouldn't
be getting
those calls
so power
to them
touchdown
Falcons
a little
shocked by
that
but they did
with a late
signal
say touchdown
we'll get
Jeffrey Jones
opinion
after this
timeout
in a minute
Graves
to try
to attempt
to tie
it up
kick
on the
way
kick
is
good
just
barely
we'll
take it
tied
at 14
244
to go
in the
first half
buckle up
Falcons
fans
it's going
to be
a night

for more

tied at 14
at Milton
Frank
with 244
to go
here
in the
first half
we'll get
this
drive
that last
time
the touchdown
was from
Davis to
Pearson
but first
the kick
by Greenhaw
and he's
going to go
deep
with it
Ellison's
going to
retreat
and catch
it
at the
5
Ellison
back up
to the
10
to the
15
he's
hit there
goes down
trying to
get away
at the
10
he's
going
back
and
knock
down
and flags
on the
play
and they're
tackle
made at the
10 yard line
and there's
yellow hankies
on the ground
and I think
that might even be
more against
Huntsville
but let's first
go down to
Jeffrey Jones
on that last
touchdown
what a play
oh it's
great play
he stretched
out
just by his
fingertips
got in
and it was
a good call
by the
ref
he was
he was
on it
and I was
standing
right next
to him
and it was
great play
and great call
penalty
against Huntsville
will be
half the distance
and they'll have
to start
inside their
10
and around
the
well I don't know
how they got
the 7 yard line
but they'll give
them the 7 yard line
but it's inside
the 10
we'll take it
half the distance
I think he was
down on about
the 14
14 or 15
and
a great job
by the Falcons
on the coverage
he kind of
bounced out
but they
stayed in their
lanes on the
back side
and were able
to get him
down
I believe
that's
0 in the
backfield
is that
right
JJ
that's
number
8
8
ok
they're
going to
leave it
with him
right up
the middle
and he's
hit at the
line of
scrimmage
and skips
forward
to about
the 10
give him
about
3
right
there
had not
seen
him
on
film
do a
lot
John
no sir
I have
not
in the
games
I've
watched
he's
not
played
tailback
really
they've
had
other
0
5
34
have all
got
rips
Armani
Settlers
is a
junior
going to
leave it
with him
off the
left side
this time
they've
set the
edge
pretty good
but he
skips
forward
to the
15
he'll be
short
by about
a yard
bring up
third and
one
and boy
Florence
if your
defense can
make a play
right here
and force
them to
punt
with two
minutes
to go
it would
be
huge
you don't
want this
offense for
Huntsville
to start
gaining
momentum
either
third and
a long
one
we'll say
Kevin
we just
came off
a seven
minute
drive on
offense
to get
their
defense
back on
the field
would be
a great
job
this time
right up
the middle
they go
and they
get the
first down
with
Settlers
and he
gets to
the 20
yard line
he's just
a big
back
he's 200
pounds
listed
and Jeffrey
Jones
on the
sideline
he runs
with a lot
of power
he's low
low to the
ground
back
he's
short
but he
he's
got some
tree
trunks
for legs
he can
move
them
too
I'm
kind of
surprised
to see him
this late
in the
season
but he
looks like
they're
going to
go with
him
Mike
this is
a big
opportunity
for
Florence
defense
don't
give up
anything
big
here
make
sure
you
keep
this
tight
at
14
right
and
being
able
to
get
the
ball
back
in
the
second
half
is
also
huge
they
want
to
go
deep
they
come
down
to
the
left
sideline
one
on
one
this
way
pretty
good
defense
by the
Falcons
they
overthrow
everybody
great
job
across
the
way
going
one
on
one
that
was
either
Jones
step
for
step
number
13
right
now
starting
to make
a name
for
himself
he
certainly
is
and look
over the
last
several
years
we've
had
some
really
good
corners
coming
out
of
Florence
and
Ja'Kyle
Jones
just
looks
like
another
one
next
man
up
he's
doing
the
job
here
they
may
do
the
same
thing
on
second
10
this
time
going to
leave
with
the
back
trying to
come
off
the
left
side
he's
hit at
the
line
of
scrimmage
and he
goes
down
he'll
be
chopped
down
and bring
up
third
down
with
105
to go
let's
see
if
Kenny
Marston
thinks
about
a
time
out
here
doesn't
call
one
yet
third
down
and
eight
at
the
23
56
55
on the
clock
they're
just
going
to
run
this
I
mirroring
their
wide
receivers
out
there
with
his
back
inside
again
he's
hit
at
the
line
of
scrimmage
he goes
down
immediately
at
the
23
now
Kenny
Marston
calls
the
time
out
with
24
seconds
23
seconds
22
seconds
21
seconds
20
seconds
how many
seconds
can
run
off
let's
put
that
thing
back
up
to
25
you
need
to
get
some
time
on
the
clock
here
because
they
took
about
five
seconds
off
but
Florence
has
forced
Huntsville
to
punt
it
away
and
John
we
talked
about
defense
making
plays
they
did
it
right
there
and
it
was
big
it's
a terrific
job
you want to get
off the field
keep them in a long yardage
that's the best way to get the Panthers
off the field is to keep them in a long yardage
we've seen they got underneath
passing game and run game
Mike I'm not a big punt block fan
but I think this is a place you go for it
if you go for one right now
absolutely
if you miss you hit the kicker
whatever they take the ball
they get 15 yards
but they're still not in a scoring position
you've got 22 seconds left
they did put some time left on the clock
we got 22 seconds left
so there's not
there's only one or two more plays
that Huntsville will be able to run
if it goes bad
if it goes well
we get the ball within the 20
don't jump off sides
they put two back on the clock
so it's 22 seconds
Jay Shaw Pearson will stand around midfield
Jaggers is a great athlete
the punt
he only takes one step
good snap
good kick
high driving kick
and Jay Shaw just needs to let that one go
but he'll go back and catch it at the 35
and say let's get some help
goes to the right
dancing
try to get outside
nothing there
come back
circle back this way
looking for a lot of run room
coming back to the left
looking for help
can't find anything
to go outside of bounds
and pushed out of bounds
and the Falcons looking for a flag there
didn't get one
with six on the clock
but Jay Shaw nearly ran the clock out
Jay Shaw nearly ran the clock out
he also is working for an Oscar there
that was one of the bad
worst acting jobs I've ever seen
is getting hit out of bounds
but he tried
that was a Patrick Mahomes special
he tried
folks I tell you right now
my two guys
are going to get their eyes checked
with my friends in the future
that was the most blatant hit
out of bounds I've seen in years
I can't believe they're taking the
just out of the other team
Dr. Huntmore
Renaissance eye care
I'll tell you what happened right there
was Jay Shaw Pearson had a great
acting job
Lawrence will take a knee
in six seconds I believe
and we'll go in tied
at the half
both teams come out
play hard
both teams make big plays
and Florence on the road
is tied with this tough
Huntsville team at 14
this is Falcon football

I'm joined
now by
Miranda
Haddock
she's the
executive
director
of the
Florence
Education
Foundation
Miranda
how are
you tonight
good
how are
you
I'm
doing
wonderful
it's a
beautiful
night
for
football
isn't it
it
it
is
the
weather
is
perfect
so
tell me
how many
years
is this
that
fourth year
fourth year
so you've
got your
own recruits
in there
you've got
it good
to go
so
you run
tandemly
with the
board
tell us a little
bit about
the makeup
of the
board
how many
members
you got
we've got
20 members
this year
wow
that's great
participation
we've
actually kept
several
from last
year
so
how long
is the
term
we ask
you to
do a
three year
term
we have
a few
that's
done
longer
yeah
and
renewable
that sort
of thing
now
there's
been a lot
of
a lot
of folks
that got
their feet
wet
with the
volunteering
by joining
the education
foundation
that's a good
way to get
your foot
in the door
as far as
being more
involved in
your kids
school
and your
community
school
I was a
member of
the education
foundation
for years
and I
enjoyed it
I know
that I've
been replaced
by some
way better
people
along the
years
we might
have you
back
so tell
us a little
bit about
what
we got
fundraisers
tell us
about
what the
foundation
does
what they
stand for
that sort
of thing
so you know
what we do
is we come
in when
the state
falls short
and bridge
the gaps
so last
year
we had
118
grants
and we
filled
teacher
grants
obviously
and we
had 118
requests
and we
filled
96
and we
gave away
over
$50,000
last year
just to the
classrooms
I'm going
to put you
on the
spot
here
with a
little bit
of a
tough
question
do you
know
exactly
how much
has been
raised
over the
last
four
or over
the history
of the
education
foundation
it's well
over $600,000
as far as
grants given
out
as far as
raised
that's
different
as far as
the grants
go
give me an
example of
a couple
things
that y'all
maybe last
year or
the year
before
that y'all
met
the need
for
so one
of the
ones we
did one
year I
thought was
pretty neat
is we
were able
to supply
graphing
calculators
for the
high school
because you
know those
are not
exactly
cheap
so the
school
provides
them for
most of
the
students
now we
are able
to provide
them for
every
student
that's
great
so and
it's
across the
board
from all
the way
from handy
to the
high school
that's
right
pre-k
through
12th
grade
okay
that's
outstanding
to hear
if I
you know
say I'm
looking for
a way
to get
involved
and you know
say I
want to
give some
money
how would
we get
in touch
with you
so you
can just
get in touch
with me
you can
go to our
website
it's
Florence
Education
Foundation
dot org
it has
so many
different ways
to give
you know
we do
memorial
funds
if you
want to
give that
way
we have
that
set up
we have
a great
one
with the
Bill
Gullett
fund
they still
give to
that
people
will give
it
throughout
funerals
they'll just
send it
to us
and we'll
give a shout
out to the
family
we also
he has
a grant
in his
foundation's
website
also
so say
I'm a
small
business
and I
want to
you know
I've noticed
that a couple
of small
businesses
sponsor
a certain
grant
how does
that work
so you
have to
hit a certain
tier
to be able
to do
that
and when
you hit
that tier
I know
it's golden
up
you're able
to have
a grant
up to
a thousand
dollars
in your
name
and how
that works
is once
we
pick the
grants
you get
to go
through
and see
what
grant
fits
your
business
the best
or whatever
you're
passionate
about
and you
get to
come out
and present
it to
that teacher
that day
and your
name is
on the
grant
okay so
tell us a
little bit
about the
process
when you
know the
grant committee
meets they
decide who's
getting what
they all vote
on it it's a
very I guess
tell me about
that process
real quick
so we have
everything print
out they get
binders they
study it for
two to three
weeks we
always score
they score
every single
grant we
come in
see the
scores we
still touch
and talk
about every
grant no matter
what the
score is
just to
make sure
we meet
it's a good
it's a long
meeting we
meet for
three or
four hours
and decide
who gets
what and
it's of
course I
don't vote
as being
the director
but we
have an
odd number
on the
grant
obviously
for voting
that's
great it's
good to
know that
all grants
are considered
you know
and some
of them
unfortunately
some of them
do fall
outside of
the criteria
you know
if a grant
comes in
that's something
that the
school could
fund
y'all just
lead it back
to the
school and
say hey
Dr. Shaw
and admin
exactly
and we did
that some
last year too
yeah
and that's
working together
it's collaborative
working right
there which is
outstanding
we need more
of that actually
in our
in today's
society
so the grant
committee meets
they decide who
gets the grants
and then
they
how do you
present them
the fun day
happens
we get to
surprise the
teachers
they have
no idea
they get
the grant
they get
their big
poster
they display
them outside
their classroom
usually
throughout the
year
you'll go to
some teachers
and they'll
have three or
four from
past years
outside their
classroom
badge of
honor
kind of
yes
and so we
get to go
in and
surprise them
they have
no idea
until we
come in
so be
honest
every year
you see tears
from some
of the
teachers
don't you
I remember
when my
time on
the foundation
it was
outstanding
and I wanted
to
I like to be
on the
grant committee
but my
favorite was
going to
and handing
out the
oh and
everyone on
the board
is welcome
to do that
we all
go for
that day
there'll be
a grant
that you
think
is not
that big
of a deal
and you'll
go present
it to the
teacher
and they're
in tears
over it
you don't
realize how
big of a
deal that
grant really
was to that
classroom
and how
big of a
deal it's
going to
be to
our
kids
educating
our
kids
if it's
a big
deal
to that
teacher
it's
going to
be a
really
big deal
to some
of those
kids
and we love
getting the
pictures and
videos of
them using
the actual
items
that's right
and posting
on social
media
you can't
help but
to have
pride in
our school
system
and our
foundation
when they
pass those
grants out
moving on
to how
you get
your
funding
you know
we get
all these
grants
away
you get
funding
how do
you get
funding
of course
through
donors
the biggest
thing
we have
campaigns
we have
friends
of the
foundation
campaign
we kick
that off
every year
and there's
different levels
and tiers
and different
perks that you
get
so we get
those
we also have
events
you know
we do our
salsa showdown
event
that's a huge
event in the fall
and we have a
spring event
and it's a fun
event
it is so fun
tell us
hold on
let's go to the
spring event
first
then we'll go
to the salsa
showdown
so putting
for the falcons
so we've got
a new thing
up our sleeve
this year
so we'll be
letting you guys
know about that
closer to time
but we did do
a new one
the lucky duck dive
also this year
that was an extra
thing that we did
that went over well
a lot of fun
it was live stream
right
yes
and we may
add a little twist
to that this year
okay
I don't want to
ask anything
too confidential
so let's move on
to the big
in my opinion
best fundraiser
of the year
for the education
foundation
that is
salsa showdown
yes
so how many
this is the
eighth year
eighth year
wow
and I think
it grows
every year
wouldn't you say
it gets bigger
each year
and it is a fun
event
you know
there's always
a great crowd
you know
the best thing
about having
so many board
members
is they've got
so many
diverse groups
of friends
yes
and you see
you just never
know who
you're going
to see
kids are welcome
it's just
an outstanding
event
that I don't
think
I haven't missed
one single
showdown
salsa showdown
you better
not this year
either
yeah
I'm planning
on being there
don't you worry
so tell us
a little bit
more about
salsa showdown
how does it work
so you know
you have
restaurants compete
or individuals
we opened up
to individuals
last year
that's good
so we had
three or four
individuals
that came out
competed
and they had
a great time
so this year
we've got
about 13 or
14 competitors
come out
you get to
pay for a ticket
they're 15 each
you go online
and buy a ticket
you'll see posters
around town
also you scan
the QR code
get your ticket
or pay at the door
okay
so you come in
you get to sample
salsa and queso
from every participant
and you vote
for your favorite
I can speak from experience
it's hard to get
to every single booth
I mean
there's so many
good sauces
and sometimes
I hit a good one
on the second
or third booth
and I don't even
make it around the room
to go to the next ones
because I just want
to get seconds
on the other
and some do more
than one salsa
they do different ones
it's great
they have specialty
they have traditional
unique
traditional
queso
and then we got
a new one
best spicy this year
that sounds good
are we still doing
the chili
hot chili
no we're not doing
that this year
we've got some
other things
too much heartburn
for some of the
so tell us
when that is
November 15th
Saturday
November 15th
at Singing River Brewery
from
2 to 5pm
that sounds good
and they can get
tickets on the
website
or see any
board member
the board members
are clearly listed
on the website
and you can pay
at the door
too
okay that's good
we take
card or check
check cash card
anything I'm missing
I see you got your
binder full of notes
I just want to make
sure we covered
everything
you know some
of our participants
yeah yeah
some of the returning
we've got some new ones
this year
well good
I hope
I hope it's just
as successful
as it's been
in the past
and we look forward
to seeing it
thank you for joining us
thank you for having me
we'll be back
in one minute

and like the
Florence Falcons
football team
at Carbine Construction
we continue to build
back at Milton Frank Stadium
the TNT fireworks
halftime show
all tied up
Florence and Huntsville
what else would you
expect in this region
on a Friday night
everybody around the region
tied up just about
in the big games
it's James Clemens
and Austin
tied at 10
we're tied at 14
I'll have to go
have found
play
they did a big drive
and late in the half
started getting something
going a little bit
but a lot of football
left to be played
can the Falcons
make the adjustments
in the second half
and we're with our
radio crew here
and you know
Mike what is your
assessment there
the first half
you know
I think these teams
are primed and ready
to go
it looked like
you know
there was some
jockeying for position
some big plays
but really
it's going to come down
to in the second half
I mean it's going to
come down to execution
it might be one of
those situations
whoever has the ball
last wins too
you know
this first half
was definitely
interesting
but I think the team
that makes adjustments
and really attacks
the weaknesses
of the other team
is going to win
this one
let's go over
to our good statistician
John take it away
with our stats
here at the half
all right Kevin
let's start with
the Crimson Panthers
tonight
Huntsville in the
first half
180 yards of offense
they had
152 yards
rushing
on 23 carries
28 yards
passing
three completions
on seven attempts
11 first downs
in the half
one for five
on third down
conversion attempts
and one for one
on fourth down
attempts
four penalties
for 31 yards
no turnovers
time of possession
was 13 minutes
and seven seconds
Falcons
191 yards
of offense
in the half
we had 12 rushes
for 54 yards
but passing
we were seven
for 12
for 137 yards
eight first downs
in the half
two for four
on third down
conversion
and no
fourth down
attempts
three penalties
for 30 yards
no turnovers
of course
time of possession
was 10 minutes
48 seconds
one thing I'll note
we've had one punt
in the half
they have had
three punts
so a good job
by the defense
of getting them
in fourth down
the Falcons
and the Panthers
are going at it
here in the first half
and Panthers
took the opening
kickoff
with the aid
of a Falcon penalty
and the aid
of a fourth down
play
where they just
made a big play
they get the score
when it was
Sanders in from
two yards out
to make it
7-0
732 to go
in the first quarter
but Florence
answered back
late in the first quarter
when Davis
found Goolsby
and Goolsby
caught it
across the middle
he was open
kept his feet
and outraced
all the Panthers
for a
78-yard touchdown
on a great throw
from Davis
to Goolsby
Charlie Graves
PAT
made it 7-7
with 252
to go
in the first
in the second quarter
here come the Panthers
again
another methodical
long drive
with 10-30 to go
they get into
the end zone
this time
it was again
a one-yard run
this time
from Drake
and Drake
puts it in the end zone
the PAT
from Cumberworth
is good
it's 14-7
but just before the half
Florence answers back
this time
it was Davis
to Jayshod Pearson
8-yard touchdown
tied it up at 14
with the PAT
from Graves
and Mike
you just get the feeling
which team will blink first
might be the key
in this one
right
you know
this is going to come down
to execution
and if we
you know
if there's a mistake
or a ball
that's put on the turf
an untimely penalty
like this game
is that close
of a matchup
that any one
mismatched play
could very well
spell the end
of the game
for whichever team
and so
you know
in a highly contested
matchup like this
really execution
and keeping
keeping your assignments
is going to be huge
let's look at the college games
our picks for tomorrow
big games being played
let's start down
on the plains
Missouri comes to Auburn
how do you think
that one plays out
I'll start with Jeffrey Jones
it's going to be a good game
you know
the
the
Las Vegas thinks
that it's going to be
a lot closer
than I thought
it was going to be
I'm going to have
to take Missouri
though
Missouri's
Missouri's been
looking pretty good
this year
all right
what do you think
John
based on the last
week that I saw
what Auburn
Auburn play
and Missouri
played
if Missouri
plays
that same way
I will have
to take Missouri
Vegas thinks
it's really close
but I'll take Missouri
yep
Mike
yeah
I'm going to go with
I'm going to go with
Missouri on that one
you know
just with the
with the way
things shaked out
last week
in Auburn
I just don't
I think Missouri
is just
I think they're just
playing too
too good right now
and Auburn
just hasn't
hasn't really truly
completed that one
big game yet
Kevin do you think
the Tigers
will have a letdown
after such a big
emotional game
last week
I do
you know
that is a real
possibility
and then again
you don't know
what you're going
to have
it's a night game
it's a very good
Missouri team
I just can't tell
which team will show up
and the offense
will it be there
I know this
the defense has been
outstanding for three
games with three losses
they've played great
defense just couldn't
make the points
when we need them
for Auburn
I think Auburn
wins it
and I'll tell you
why I think Auburn
wins it
I think Lady Luck
has to owe them a few
I just feel like
something's going to
go their way
so I give the Tigers
that one
Alabama, Tennessee
Tuscaloosa
hate these games
are being played
at the same time
JJ
Crimson Tide
and Tuscaloosa
against the balls
so I didn't realize
those are playing
at the same time
until you just said
that but they are
well 15 minutes apart
I'm going to have
to take the home team
Alabama
you know
Vegas doesn't think
this one's going to
be close
which is a little
surprising
but I'm going to
take Alabama
all right John
I'm going with him
right now
Ty Simpson
and the wide
receiving group
is really excelling
and Tennessee
I heard was like
115th
in pass defense
so I'm going to
take strength
versus weakness
I'll go with Bama
what do you think Mike
I'm going to bridge
my original assessment
with that Auburn game
I have little information
from the desert
and it just looks like
Auburn
Auburn is the home dog
in that game
at night again
the energy
that place is going
to be rocking
I'm flipping that one
shall we say
after further review
because that's all
we heard last week
so we'll go after
further review
in that game
that referee
in that second quarter
had to have run
at least five miles
back and forth
to that dumb screen
yeah the world's
largest screen
screen size
of Rhode Island
but we come around
we run 70 yards
to look at a cell phone
video on the field
so you know
I digress
Mike was in the stadium
for last week
just for a quick side
Alabama Tennessee
Alabama the home team
is going to take that one
reminder
I know
everybody knows
Alabama is playing
as well as anyone
there at home
they've got everything ready
Tennessee will make it close
oh yeah
but I think Alabama
will win it
because right now
they're as hot as any team
and I think they come out
with a victory
so you'll hear that game
right here
on 93-9 the score
tomorrow
any upsets you see
in the making
college football tomorrow
I've got one for you
and it's going to blow your mind
no it's not going to
blow my mind
go for it
the fact that LSU
is going to beat
Vanderbilt
will be an upset
LSU is going to beat
Vanderbilt tomorrow
and it's going to be an upset
11 o'clock game brother
trap game for LSU
in Nashville
Kevin Vanderbilt
is favored by almost
three points
wow
in your lifetime
has LSU ever been
an underdog to
Vanderbilt
wow
not me
somebody knows something guys
any other upsets
y'all see tomorrow
you've got Ole Miss
and Georgia
we missed that one
Georgia getting a
chance for some payback
for the last season
also you've got
in Athens
that's right
Texas
going to Kentucky
maybe the first time
they've ever gone
I'm not certain about that
and USC
Notre Dame
how about
I take
SC
as an underdog
yeah
that one's caught my attention
too on SC
and Notre Dame
I think that's all I got
I'm not
I'm not going to take them
but I will say
watch Texas A&M
and Arkansas
I think Arkansas
is going to make it
closer than the
than the experts think
that's my
I think A&M
comes out with a
I think A&M
squeaks by
okay
all right
any others
y'all see
give y'all the chance
Mike
I'm cycling through
I'm excited to see
after he's just got paid
12 million dollars
nearly a season
for Kurt Signetti
to travel
I mean
he gets Michigan State
at home
and see what his players
show out for him
boy he deserved that
didn't he
what about
who does Oklahoma
play tomorrow
by the way
Oklahoma plays
South Carolina
in Columbia
I like South Carolina
in that game
Oklahoma
looked bad
coming off a bad loss
they did not look good
that's not the same team
we saw about three weeks ago
against Auburn
that's for sure
will Matier be
healthy
but I don't think
he'll be healthy
I don't either
I think that's
that's the big difference
with them
healthy Matier
they can run the table
but
did you think he was
unhealthy last week
yes
most definitely
I didn't see any
he was not 100%
he had some zip
on his ball
he did
all right
well it's going to be fun
in college football tomorrow
don't forget the Alabama
Tennessee game right here
on 93.9
the score
we're at the TNT fireworks
halftime break
where Florence and Huntsville
all knotted up
at 14
come back
third quarter action
this is Falcon Football

Florence and Huntsville

don't forget
next Friday night
Florence
will be at home
against Spartan
in the final
region game
of the season
at Brawley Stadium
so make plans to be there
next Friday night
Florence and Spartan
the Falcons
could come away
with a victory
here tonight
somehow on the road
it would be a huge
huge game
Cumberworth will
kick it away
not punt it
but kick off
from the 40
they've done a lot
of skip kicks
they've placed the kicks
they're trying to put
pressure on
they could even
own side kicking now
J-shot Pearson
I don't think
they'll let
number two
touch it
they look like
they put
a little different
personnel
up
closer to the
30 yard line
where they would
squib it to
as well
so we'll see
they're looking
you know
I like the kicker
that says
hey where's the guy
I want to kick it to
and let him choose
so you got to be ready
to just cover the ball
and be alert to anything
as far as
hopefully have the ball
to start
the third quarter
Cumberworth
approaches it
and he'll chip it
down to Phil
they're going to be
taken by the Falcons
at the 35
and knocked down
out of the 37 yard line
and that's where
it'll be first and 10
they're going to call
the fumble there or not
they're trying to get it
over on the other side
will they give it to them
is a question
I don't think so
it'll be Florence's
football
it's going to be tough
Kevin being on their
sideline
they're still talking
about it over there
right in front of
the Huntsville bench
and they're going to
give the ball to Huntsville
that was probably
fumble against Florence
and you've got to
fall on that
you can't try to run
with that
and you talked about
personnel
I don't know who it was
that got it
but that is a huge
turnover right there Mike
it was the right guy
wrong implementation
the kid has good hands
just wound up
getting it stripped
he got held up
a little bit
and multiple guys
got in there
and just ripped
the ball out of his hands
I knew when they
kept doing that
I knew they were
getting one eventually
now a flag
on the field
I think maybe
Huntsville has too many
on the field
and they do
so that will be
a five yard penalty
that will make it
a first and 15
on the illegal substitution
Kevin I really think
if that would have been
on our sideline
or in the middle
it would have been
a down player
momentum stop
but they managed
to get him
and that's why
you run plays
to your sideline
you kick it
to your sideline
we've talked about
that often
it's just
the life we live
one back
in the backfield
I think that's
Drake in the backfield
still
behind the quarterback
Wyatt Smith
he has two wideouts
to the right
going to leave it
with Drake
off the left side
trying to bounce
it got across the 40
and skipped out of bounds
around the 38
depending where
they mark it there
Dawkins actually
number 8
number 5
Cinco Dawkins
on the play
Dawkins coming in
starting
so they'll run
0, 5, and 8
at running back
right now
it's Dawkins in there
give him 5
so second down
and 10
this time
I'm going to leave
with Dawkins
up the middle
and again
a good little run
across the 30
down to the 30
yard line
before the Falcons
puts you away
but that's too much
yardage
and that's 6 yards
on that
Jeffrey Jones
you had him
at first and 15
and now you're
third and 4
yeah it's time
to tighten up
right here
the defense
has been showing up
the whole game
they need to
play tight
right here
boy I tell you
I think you got to
bring some blitzes
or something
you cannot let them
get a first down here
at the 30
quarterback Smith
going to leave it
to the left
of Dawkins
trying to get outside
missed one man
coming outside
chipped out of bounds
and stepped out
at the 30
that's great defense
stringing him out
he'll have nothing
on that one
it'll bring up
fourth down and four
yeah it was a great job
right off the jump
he had
looks like Jaden White
coming right up the middle
forced the runner
outside
had another guy
just keep stringing him out
he ran out of real estate
went out of bounds
Dawkins is the tailback
Ellison will go wide
to the right
now he'll go wide
left
he'll swap
and bring Grissom
to the right
the tight ends
in there as well
it's fourth down
and four
listen the quarterback
can run it too
you got to keep an eye
on him
going to leave it inside
with Dawkins
he's hit
he goes down
Burski gets him
in the backfield
no gain
Florence ball
oh baby
what a play by Burski
and the dialing up
with the defense
on the blitz
was perfect right there
that was a great job
there by the Falcons
to face adversity
to start the half
that was a really tough
blow there for the Falcons
the defense did a great job
to really stop the Panthers
and get off the field
with no harm done
that's going to be a huge job
and the Falcons
need to respond here
really get that momentum
on their side
Jeffrey Jones
ironically
after all that
Florence gets it
about where they recovered
that kickoff
almost exactly
where they
where they recovered
the kickoff
so no harm
no foul right there
we just got to make it right
got the same game plan
that we had
in the
in the locker room
so let's get out here
and execute
I believe that's
Elliott in the slot
with Goolsby to the left
McDonnell wide right
the tailback
to the right
of the quarterback
Davis is Triplett
Triplett's going to get it
off the left side
and try to use his speed
and cut it up
got run room
40
45
stays on his feet
to the 50
cuts back
and finally knocked down
stays on his feet
again
to the 45
to the 40
down to the 35
and to the 32
oh my
welcome to this game
Kalon Triplett
Kalon Triplett
starting the
second half
the way he started
the first half
very first run
of the game
he took a
nice big run there
Kalon Triplett
ran up the field
ran up the field
and was undeniable
on that play
breaking tackles
making guys miss
and really having
a nice little burst
to flip the field
for the Falcons
it's been tough
sledding in between
the gaps
Kevin
we got on the edge
that's what you need
to get it on the edge
a lot at the 32
this time
going to leave
with Triplett
no throw across the middle
got it to McDonnell
and he couldn't catch it
that was a pretty good
defense there
but a flag on the play
and I think they're
going to get him
for grabbing
the shoulder pad
before he kicked there
there's a flag
inside
both at the line
of scrimmage
and inside the box
I think there's
a definite flag
on the pass interference
face mask
so that
so
yeah
on that
on that play
the pass
was a little
behind McDonnell
so
it was all setting
as you hear
it was an eligible
receiver for the Falcons
and
on face mask
on the defense
so it'll be
an off setting
if we'll do it again
first and ten
at the 33
or 32 yard line
excuse me
I didn't mean
to interrupt Mike
was that guy
covered up
what made
the guy in the eligible
they were saying
alignment was too far
downfield
gotcha
as they run that
option play
a little bit
read it
and then throw it
Davis with Triplett
to the right
of him
going to leave
with Triplett
off the left side
he used his speed
again to the 30
breaks the tackle
to the 25
and spins forward
and knocked out of bounds
he'll get about
eight or nine
that's a great job
there to get to the
outside once again
the Falcons
doing a great job
of getting out
getting out there
and getting
some tough yardage
you know
but that's
the rub
with the RPO
you get yourself
that ball in the belly
and you get
Lyman going downfield
they're blocking
like it's a run play
and you're getting
them downfield
with that pass
and it's just
you see that a lot
in college
Triplett is running
with confidence
right now
yes
that is a great point
JJ
he is running
with as much confidence
as I've seen this year
second down
and two
at the 24
he's to the left
of the quarterback
Davis
Davis
going to leave it
with Triplett again
up the middle
pushes forward
got a first down
pushes up to the 20
he broke a tackle
or two
to get an extra yard
and move those chains
first down
for the boys
in white and blue
he's seeing the holes
way better
than he has
all season
he really cut through
there
was able to make
was able to pull away
from one of the defenders
to get the extra yardage
for that first down
you know
not only confidence
but strength
Goolsby and Elliott
wide to the right
McDonald to the left
he'll bring the safety
over here
up and out on McDonald
a little bit
Triplett
still the tailback
on this first and ten play
going to leave it
with Triplett again
this time he gets hit
spins away
got to the 20
to the 15
down to the 10
inside the 10
to the 8
he had nothing
they had him for a loss
he spins away
and leaves Panthers
in his wake
and goes all the way
inside the 10 yard line
if Kaelin's able
to continue this
this run
that he's on
as he's running
this ball
the region better
take note
because he is undeniable
unblocked
blitz defender
hit him in the backfield
and he just spun off
of him
and was not
maybe just could not
make the tackle
first and goal
at the 8
Davis
going to leave it again
inside
skips forward
push forward
he'll get down
to about the 6
lost the ball
ball on the ground
I think Florence
may get it
down around the 1
they're going to say
Huntsville saying
they've got it
but the official says
referee says we have it
Florence's ball
and it
oh
no they're giving it to
Huntsville
they're going to give
Huntsville the ball
at the 1 yard line
and it's a turnover
Florence said
they had it
I thought with the
official putting his
hand up
but he was signaling
the other way
wasn't he
Jeffrey Jones
I can't figure
that one out
Nelson Elliott
jumped on the ball
I don't know
if he had it
I guess he got it
taken from him
at the bottom
of the pile
but he was on it
that's an unfortunate
event right there
we driving
had it
fumbled it
fumbled it forward
the ball still
on the ground
for about
three or four seconds
and rolled
to the 2
at the 2 yard line
so the Panthers
have 98 yards to go
and stop the Falcons
on this drive
that was looking
so promising
shotgun formation
the bristle
before the snap
and I believe
is that a timeout
the official
came all the way
from over
at the sideline
of Huntsville
it looked like
he was
they're motioning
timeout
timeout taken
by the Panthers
will do the same
8.41 to go
in the third quarter
all knotted up
at 14
we're back in 30

or on the web
at CypressCreekRange.com
back at Milton Frank Stadium
where Florence
and Huntsville
tied at 14
a promising drive
by Florence
ends
at the two-yard line
on a fumble
after
great hustle there
by Triplett
but a fumble
is recovered
by Huntsville
and now they'll be
in their own end zone
on this first and ten
play from the two
Sellers in it
tailback
Sellers gets it
off the left side
pushes forward
and gets to the three
or four
maybe the five-yard line
give him about three
they run the
slant wedge
to the left
at zone blocking
and get about three
or four
give him even five
on that
they'll call him
at the seven
you are on the road
and sometimes
those marks
get from four
to five
that happened
there maybe
second down
and five
defense for Florence
needs to come up
big here
you cannot
let this
get back
the other way
again
going to run
the back
to the left
side
trying to get
there and hit
but he pushes
forward across
the ten
and should have
enough for the
first down
around the 13
and that'll be
enough to move
the chains
well
they have found
something on the
left side
Mike
they run it
in the first
half
they continue
to do it
here
right
and they've
had some
success
the Falcons
have adjusted
at times
and was able
to stop
them
they haven't
really
busted it
too well
but they've
been able
to run
successfully
this time
he's hit
right at
the line
of scrimmage
and they'll
blow it
dead
they won't
and they let
him just
continue to
push forward
and he gets
about six
yards
he was stopped
all the way
back at the
15 yard line
and they
wouldn't blow
the whistle
and they pushed
forward for four
more yards
that's driving
me crazy
guys
that's the way
the officials
are told to
call it
unfortunately
I don't like
the way
it looks
the flag
is going
to push
the team
in red
back
and that
will be
a Falcons
favor
holding call
it looks
like
we'll move
it back
holding on
72
for the
Panthers
the youngster
who is committed
to UNA
gets caught
holding
and a half
the distance
penalty
we'll move
it back
to the
six yard
line
which brings
up first
and about
16 or 17
now trips
to the right
for the quarterback
going to leave
it inside
to the back
and he's hit
and spins
away
but he goes
down
after a game
of about two
that's better
right there
and the Falcons
brought a little
pressure that time
Mike
right
they were able
to bring
some pressure
they got
a hit
you know
as he was
receiving the ball
he broke
the tackle
but didn't
really have
a full head
of steam
heading towards
the line
of scrimmage
was able
to pick
up to
how about
a time
right here
for a pick
six
because I think
they're going
to throw it
second 14
back to pass
rolling
wanting to throw
looking for
the settle down
throws to the
sideline
and over those
everybody
he was going
for Ellison
he overthrew
everybody
about 20 yards
and it brings
up third down
in most of
the parkway
to go
yeah
J shot was in
in position
for that one
and it went
way over his head
the receiver
cut off the route
early
so it looked like
maybe a little
miscommunication
between the quarterback
and wide receiver
John I've seen
I've seen them
run a few screens
on film
this could be
a place
you see that
right here
maybe a little
quick draw
it's a great
it's a great
down and distance
the first thing
as a defense
you're going
to be looking
for is a screen
or a draw play
and then adjust
from there
they've got
three wide
receivers in
though
so we need
to be
good pass
coverage
on the third
down
play
straight drop
looking
wanting to throw
down the middle
is tied in
and it's
intercepted
taken by the
faculty
at the 20
to the 15
Jekyll and Jones
to the 10
to the 5
he's down
to the 1
give the Falcons
the ball
down at the
2 yard line
Jekyll and Jones
on the pick
and almost had
the pick 6
their quarterback
is fighting
the bottom
of the pile
trying to jerk
the ball
away from him
and it should
have been
a personal foul
but the Falcons
got the ball
at the 2
first and goal
at the 2
and there's a flag
on the play guys
and a flag
on the play
now let's see
what that's for
it's got to be
after the play
was over
but the Falcon
offense is coming
out on the field
sideline warning
on Florence
it was in the
middle of the field
it was going
all the way down
and there's a
sideline warning
over here
no me guys
sideline warning
on Florence
half of Huntsville
on the kickoff
was on the field
and I'm looking
right now
all the Florence
players are on
the track
not on the green
they're all standing
on the edge
of the track
and as a matter
of fact
the coaches
are pushing
on the track
this is an
old Alvin Briggs
trick
we've been
over at Huntsville
he put all
his team
on the track
because they
like that
first and goal
at the two
let's push
this thing
in Florence
6.56 to go
Davis has
triplet
to his right
triplet
in the middle
hit nowhere
he's getting
nowhere to go
and he's pulled
back
he'll lose
a yard or two
Kevin
Kevin
Kevin
I want
to like
the jumbo
package
we've brought
in a few
times
this close
to the end
zone
second down
and goal
at the five
you know
you've not
thrown it up
to Jimmy
McDonald
one-on-one
yet
he's pretty
good at
faking the
slant
in the middle
and going
to the outside
let's see if he
does it there
he's got
one-on-one
out here
to the left
a safety
sort of
over the top
so they'll
bring
Gulesby in there
to force
the safety
to guard
him
play
clock
at 12
watch
McDonald
he's on
the numbers
at the
five-yard
line
play
clock
at five
play
action
wants to
throw
nowhere
to throw
with it
now Davis
looks to
run
and Davis
will get
back
to the
line of
scrimmage
maybe lose
a yard
and he'll
bring up
third down
and go
at the
six or
seven
that's a
smart play
by Cade
Davis
he didn't
force it
right
he knew
he was
looking for
the slant
over the
middle
it wasn't
there
the fade
wasn't
there
they were
covered up
he just
pulled it
down
and lived
the play
another down
tried to
get back
to the
line of
scrimmage
and so
we've got
a third
down
third down
and goal
at the
seven
he started
at the
two
the Falcons
have lost
five yards
on two
plays
play
clock
at 15
as they
get the
play
in
trips
to the
left
side
going
towards
the
scoreboard
Davis
the quarterback
has
tripling
in the
backfield
back
to pass
looking
nowhere to
throw
to the
end zone
he throws
it
McDonald
goes up
for it
and couldn't
get it
incomplete
he'll bring up
fourth down
and goal
that was good
timing and jump
there by the
by the corner
to knock that
away from
McDonald
McDonald
had his
hands on the
ball
knocked away
by the
corner
at the
very last
second
the
Panthers
hold
serve
and it
looks like
the
Falcons
are going
to have
to kick
Charlie
Graves
will
attempt
a
24
yarder
the
thing
that
bothers
me
is
this
Panthers
team
has had
a great
rush
you've got
to protect
here
it'll be
a 24
yarder
good snap
good hold
kick
on the way
kick
it's got
enough
distance
the kick
is
good
and
Florence
takes a
three point
lead
17-14
as Charlie
Graves
gives the
Falcons
the advantage
520 to go
in the third
have you ever
seen those
halftime
scholarships
where you have
to nail
a 40 yard
field goal
yeah this
isn't that
I didn't have
to write
a long essay
or audition
or make
a half court
shot
I just had
to open

independent
account
use my
debit card
sign up
for online

that's it

and the
future
of our

bank
independent
we're
invested
in your
future
member
FDIC
back at
Milton
Frank
Stadium
where Florence
gets a
24 yard
field goal
from Charlie
Graves
to extend
the lead
to 17-14
not a drive
really
it was the
Jekyll and Jones
interception
that brought it
back to the
two yard line
he couldn't
quite get in
so the Florence
had the ball
two different
times at the
two
they fumbled
it once
at the
two
and then
they stuck
and have
to kick
a field
goal
now
Greenhall
will chip
a kick
over to the
left side
taken at the
30 yard line
and hit down
right at the
35 and knocked
out of bounds
across the way
and that'll bring
where the Panthers
have it 65 yards
away
don't forget
tomorrow morning
the coaches
breakfast
from the
North Alabama
Bone and Joint
clinic
8 a.m.
here on 93
9
the score
as we
talk to
coaches
from around
the
shows
area
about
Friday
night's
games
on
Saturday
morning
a great
tradition
in the
shows
area
the coaches
breakfast
here
on 93
9
the score
Settlers
still in the
backfield
or Drake
we'll see
here
Settlers
is still
back there
on the
first down
play
they look
to give
him
to him
right up
the middle
and he's
hit right
at the line
of scrimmage
and pushed
back
no gain
that time
you hear
a fan
in the
background
that's a
horrible
spot
because he
never got
to the
line of
scrimmage
and they
gave him
a yard
I agree
with that
fan
second
down
and 9
at the
25
you are
on the
road
those
things
happen
watch
for
number
two
Grissom
want to
throw
the swing
pass
out here
to him
he
catches
it
skip
down
and
knock
down
at
the
30
he's
going
nowhere
because
the
young
man
going
to
Austin
P
by the
name
of
Walt
Barrett
said
thank you
very much
he'll
lose
about
four
Walt
Barrett
as
the
quarterback
set
his
feet
he read
that
play
right
away
he
was
shot
like
a
cannon
just
flew
into
the
backfield
and
great
open
field
tackle
tripping
up
the
receiver
John
one
thing
you have
to watch
that's
a
set up
for a
double
pass
right
there
to
that
it
could
be
it
certainly
could
be
very
detailed
from the
cornerback
position
not
getting
too
eager
two
wide
outs
to the
left
two
tight
in
to the
right
now
one
go
tight
in
goes
left
straight
drop
looking
left
wanting
to
pass
has
time
now
he's
being
pressured
floated
up
in
the
pocket
got
to
the
thirty
to
the
thirty
five
he's
getting
close to
the
first
down
but he
won't
get
there
he's
knocked
down
hard
at
the
37
yard
line
and
he
got
hammered
right
at
the
37
that was
irons
right
there
that came
up
and
just
laid
the
wood
it
was
a
beautiful
job
as
hit
him
super
hard
making
a
fourth
down
play
and
the
Falcon
crowd
on their
feet
below
here
high
atop
we are
on the
visitor's
side
fourth
and six
to go
Pearson
back
deep
to return
the
punt
of
Richardson
don't need
any penalties
here
Richardson
gets it
and will
punt it
away
line
drive
and
Pearson
will
have
it
at
the
20
yard
line
he looks
back
at
the
15
he's
in
trouble
trying to
run
out of
balance
now
and
he'll
go
if Lawrence
defense
does
their
job
you
have
a
three
point
lead
and
you
put
it
back
in
the
hands
of
the
offense
that
found
some
running
room
Mike
if you
can
go
down
here
and
score
and
go
up
two
scores
that
would
be
huge
that
would
be
absolutely
huge
and
the
Falcons
have
the
ability
to
really
if
they're
able to run
the ball
here
they could
run
some
clock
here
but
this
possession
in
this
game
could
be
huge
this
might
be
a
game
defining
drive
here
Triplett
the
tailback
against
the
six
man
front
now
they
got
four
four
five
six
up
in
the
box
three
wide
out
so
for
Florence
Gulesby
to the
left
McDonnell
Elliott
to the
right
on the
first
down
play
Triplett
coming
left
looking
cuts
back
in
the
middle
and
this
time
he
spins
hit
right
at
the
line
of
scrimmage
who
won't
get
anything
he'll
get
nothing
second
down
and
ten
Kevin
I'm
counting
seven
and
maybe
eight
down
into
a
heavy
box
so
we've
got
to
really
try
to
work
the
edges
but
we've
got
to
hit
some
one
pass
routes
remember
Kavante
Green
injured
in the
first
half
probably
not
back
Elijah
Hines
did
not
dress
tonight
he's
on
the
sideline
hope
he's
back
by
next
week
second
down
and
ten
Falcons
lead
it
by
three
we're
under
three
to
go
here
in
the
third
quarter
Davis
looks
two
to the
right
and is
back
to the
right
one
to
the
left
now
put
his
tight
in
motion
Shepard
to
the
right
play
action
wants
to
pass
gets
rid
of
it
and
it's
hopped
away
and hit
knocked
down
Toby
was
almost
getting
the
interception
there
that's
what
he
was
thinking
yeah
he
batted
that
pass
down
right
away
Cade
had
no
you know
through
right in
the
passing lane
there was
a defender's
hand
knocked
the ball
down
knocked
that
play
I
know
this
Falcon
team
don't
have
it
but
boy
you
almost
wish
you
could
run
like
a
quick
pitch
out
here
to
triple
and
just
let
him
use
the
speed
and
get
outside
it's
worked
well
put
him in
a little
pre-snap
motion
and maybe
outflank
him
third
down
and
10
I
would
tell you
with
239
to go
I'd be
very
careful
here
from
Florence
especially
after what
just
happened
third
and
10
straight
drop
pressure
coming
he's
in
trouble
he
goes
down
back
at
the
12
like
I
said
I'd
be
very
careful
on
that
play
they
brought
the
house
and
that
time
Chobie
and
friends
got
the
sack
and
Falcons
had
to
punt
it
away
Kevin
he
didn't
do
a
good
job
we
had
a
tackle
that
was
in
front
of
him
and
he
kind
of
just
let
him
go
he
didn't
get
beat
as
much
as
he
thought
he
either
had
help
or
thought
he
was
past
the
quarterback
back
deep
Grissom
will
stand
at
midfield
we
need
Sevanada
to
have
that
might
have
been
touched
by
a
Huntsville
player
Falcons
might
have
touched
it
too
but
Jeffrey
Jones
right
now
this
defense
is
going
to
be
called
upon
one
more
time
they're
going
to
be
tested
again
they need
to
watch
number
90
on the
other
side
he's
playing
very
intense
that's
a good
way
to
put
it
they can
use
that
to
their
advantage
if
they
do
a
hard
count
again
I
think
he's
going
to
jump
I
think
he's
playing
out
of
his
mind
he's
a
very
good
athlete
huge
kid
but
he
needs
to
get
his
composure
use
the
aggression
against
him
yeah
his
composure
a little
bit
is
getting
out
of
whack
defense
got to
step
up
right
here
this
is
a
big
one
we
played
well
we
know
that
so
it's
Hansville
ball
at the
43
Kenny
Morrison
is still
asking
about
the
ball
it
looks
like
the
we've
got
a
five
minute
brainstorm
here
and
they're
going to
say
it's
going
to
go
to
Huntsville
I
think
Kenny
Morrison
was
still
arguing
it
might
have
been
Florence's
ball
but
he's
not
going
to
but
oh
he
goes
nowhere
Falcons
defense
was there
and pushed
back
the
Falcons
have to
push
him
back
because
if
they
don't
push
him
back
they'll
let
them
keep
going
forward
and
won't
blow
the
whistle
it's
funny
how
it
works
one
way
when
they start
pushing
him
back
they're
quick
to
blow
the
whistle
loss
of one
if
you
get
negative
yardage
for the
push
back
that'd
be
nice
I'd
be
more
in
favor
of
the
rule
and
they
still
said
no
game
he never
got to
the
line
of
scrimmage
and
they
said
no
game
it
should
be
second
and
11
second
down
and
10
Smith
going to
look to give
to his
back
again
this
time
hit
at
the
40
again
pushing
forward
listen
no
whistle
finally
they blow
it
when they
chop
him
down
around
the
37
gain
about
three
settlers
gets
three
there
and
it
brings
up
third
and
seven
you
know
you
wonder
Mike
if this
Huntsville
team
might be
a little
nervous
throwing
the ball
after the
interception
yeah
I mean
you know
the first
few
runs
now
you make
it
third
and
manageable
this
is
definitely
going to
be
a
pass
situation
but
you
know
the
Falcon
secondary
is
really
solid
so
Huntsville
knows
what
they're
up
against
third
and
six
actually
looking
left
wanting
to
throw
being
flushed
out
the
pocket
he's
got
running
room
comes
up
and
wide
up
and
down
the
sideline
and
completes
it
down
to
the
20
to
the
15
down
to
the
10
to
the
five
going to
the
end
zone
and
settlers
he'll
score
a
scramble
route
hits
settlers
for the
touchdown
and
Huntsville
takes
the
lead
with
35
seconds
to
go
in
the
third
tough
break
for
Florence
yeah
the
quarterback
got
flushed
out
it
was
a
great
improvisation
to
play
you know
as they
crashed
down
to try
and get
the
quarterback
wide
receiver
became
wide
open
made a
couple
guys
miss
in
the
open
field
just
beautiful
athletic
play
after the
catch
Panthers
touchdown
PAT
from
Chumbleworth
to
come
if
they
get
the
light
show
to
stop
here
there
may
be
even
worse
than
some
other
places
still
going
in
trying
to
snap
the
ball
that's
ridiculous
they
snapped
it
with
the
lights
going
on
and
off
and
the
kick
is
good
new
score
21-17
Huntsville
with the
lead
Falcon
football
back
in
30
seconds
sphere
we're

Tuesday
through
Thursday

Florence

we go
seesaw
fair
Huntsville
takes
the
lead
21-17
on a
scramble
route
from
Smith
the
settlers
from
38
yards
that
last
drive
John
three
plays
42
yards
1 minute
22
off
the
clock
and
a
38
yard
touchdown
scramble
pass
great job
by the
Panthers
Panthers
about to
kick it
off
you never
know
where
they're
going
with it
they usually
like to
go to
their
sideline
I'll say
that
they'll do
the same
they'll kick
it this way
and the
Falcons
catch it
right at
the 50
yard line
the 47
I'm not sure
who fell
on it
is that
Winkles
yeah
that's
number
49
yes
Copeland
Gerald
Copeland
comes down
with it
and Copeland
gets on the
ball
and that's
that's an
onside kick
accidental
maybe
they were
trying to
kick it
to the side
every
kick's been
an onside kick
some of them
been deeper
than others
but every
kick
and I knew
they got
they got
one already
coming out
of the half
and it's
it's a scary
thing
they're doing
they're executing
it well
at the 46
though
Florence now
basically
at midfield
trailing by
four with
32 seconds
to go here
in the third
quarter
playing
a little
empty too
without
green in there
so Florence
having to go
to some
subs
triplet
the back
this time
going to leave
with triplet
off the right
side
pushes forward
get across
the 48
to the 49
I think he got
to the 49
and we'll see
where the mark
says
never know
here
second down
and we'll
call it
seven
48 and a
half
really
yeah
two
two yards
the official
on the
Huntsville
sideline
gives him
two yards
they mark
the ball
at the
48 yard
line
that ball
touches
the 49
near the
50
so Florence
will let
it go
to the
end of the
quarter
and a
trail
Huntsville
21-17

here
action
underway
and it's
k davis
to nelson
elliott
for a first
down as he
makes a
diving catch
at the
42
big play
and great
catch by
nelson
elliott
that was
that was
a great
job
kade
threw
the ball
right
on the
money
but
nelson
elliott
with
the
hands
there
going
over
the
middle
very
tough
catch
there
made
it
in
traffic
beautiful
play
falcon
first down
i got some
sauce on it
kevin
a lot of
heat
pearson
in the slot
to the right
mcdonnell
there the ball
is sitting
at the 43
yard line
one back in
the backfield
it's been
tripled
all the way
on the
first and
ten play
play
action
wants to
throw
close across
the middle
and that
time
knocked
away
right over
pearson's
back
came the
defender
rings up
second down
and ten
i think it
was a good
play
yeah coach
was a little
upset
thinking that
you know
the defender
ran through
jay shot
i think he
got his
hand on
the ball
but you
know
it was a
bang
bang play
could have
gone either
way
but you
know
we are
the away
team
we're
going to
have to
live to
play
another
down
second
and ten
second
and ten
play clock
at 18
florence
trails by
four with
11.22
with them
cheating up
like that
on those
little
hitches
i'd say
run a
hitch
and go
with a
jay shot
up the
middle
if you
have the
time
that's
the key
that
pressure's
getting there
faster and
faster
second down
and ten
play action
again
uplifted
with triplet
now he
bounces it
got running
room to
the 40
to the 35
to the 30
touch back
to the 30
to the 25
and down
to the 21
continue to
move his
feet
continue to
chop his
feet
continue to
move forward
and the
Falcons have
a big first
down
that was a
great job
although
delayed
reaction
there
you know
the blocks
were pretty
pretty well
set up
once he
went down
downfield
he was able
to get his
pads
vertical there
he was able
to make a few
guys miss
out in open
space
big run
there by
the Falcons
they will
mark him
at the
22
is that
right
JJ
yes sir
yeah they
mark him
back at
the 22
first and
10
play
triplet
nope
going to
pass
throw the
quick out
complete
got it
to
McDonald
to the
20
made a
man
man
it's
15
10
down
the
sideline
inside
the
10
to
the
8
I love
the little
quick
screen
right
there
the
quick
screen
but even
better
J shot
Pearson
with the
block
block
the
defender
clear
out of
bounds
really
took
that
first
down
get
that
extra
yardage
J shot
Pearson
with a
great
play
now
the
Falcons
will
go
heavy
set
from
the
eight
yard
line
first
and
goal
hold
your
breath
Falcons
fans
under
center
is
Davis
they
jump
that's
five
yards
that's
a great
hard
count
right
over
the
ball
the
nose
guard
couldn't
hold
it
Jeffrey
Jones
you
talked
about
that
defensive
line
being
too
aggressive
very
aggressive
they've
been
by the
way
update
James
Clemens
and
Austin
tied
at
17
I
believe
going
to
the
fourth
these
are
critical
games
under
center
Davis
going to
look to
hand it
off
nope
looks to
pass
looking
looking
I
gave it
away
actually
tall
sweep
I
didn't
see
it
but
down
around
the
two
I
thought
he
was
going
to
play
action
but
he
got
the
tall
sweep
that's
a good
spot
right
at
the
one
my
apologies
because
I was
watching
the
quarterback
Davis
he
faked
me
on
the
fake
there
so
down
at
the
one
Davis
will
go
under
center
at
the
one
second
down
and
goal
look
he
fumbled
it
goes
down
and
he
got
on
it
he
did
at
the
two
oh
my
goodness
he
tried
to
pick
it
up
just
get
on
the
ball
and
a
loss
of
two
number
24
was
in
the
right
place
Cade
tried
to
pick
it
up
but
he
dove
on
it
number
24
did
under
center
again
you see
that ball
on the
turf
we
can't
we
don't
have
time
to
pick
that
up
there
third
down
and
three
to
go
down
by
four
with
under
10
to
go
in
the
game
zo
Martin
your
tailback
play
action
wants
to
pass
throws
it
to
the
end
zone
incomplete
he
had
his
tight
in
open
but
he
went
for
the
underneath
route
and
it
brings
up
fourth
down
the
underneath
route
wasn't
even
sure
that
was
to
him
he
pulled
his
hands
back
towards
the
end
but
he
had
no
chance
to
be
in
bounds
and
catch
that
ball
anyway
you
might
go
back
now
to
something
different
what
you've
got
here
that's
tough
we
got
the
ball
on
the
within
the
five
twice
now
and
have
not
gained
a
yard
fourth
and
goal
at
the
three
that's
getting
J-Shot's
hands
right
here
I
think
that's
a
great
call
JJ
tell you
one
thing
you might
call
a
timeout
here
you're
down
to
eight
this
is a
big
play
don't
rush
call
the
timeout
Kenny
Morrison
looking
down
and
get
the
official's
attention
he finally
gets
the
timeout
called
timeout
taken
we'll
keep
it
right
here
we
saw
it
from
a
mile
away
the
PA
announcer
here
is
leading
the
cheers
for
the
crowd
across
the
way
I
think
it's
a
DJ
I
don't
think
that's
the
PA
announcer
he's
been
announcing
they had
two guys
then
because
there's
another
one
that's
real
calm
this
one
is
not
this
is
someone
that's
a
hype
man
of
some
sort
you may
be
right
this
is
not
the
AHSAA
rule book
for the
PA
announcer
to
incite
the
crowd
just
wanted
to
throw
that
out
there
fourth
and
go
at
the
three
the
ball
is
on
the
right
hash
I
think
he
may
come
back
and
jay shot
Pearson
spread
it
now
if the
team
comes
out
on
the
field
they
haven't
started
to
flake
like
yet
and
so
Pearson
will
come
in
he'll
be in
there
in
the
slot
to
the
right
I
think
triplets
you're
back
and here
we go
triplet
comes back
in motion
to the
left
back
to pass
looking
want to
throw
in
trouble
now
Davis
rolls
throws
the end
zone
incomplete
couldn't
get it
there
and
Huntsville
holds
that play
was
disaster
all
over
there
a
Huntsville
player
still
slow
to
get
up
but
he
made
the
play
and
it's
fourth
down
play
that's
not
working
the
Falcons
have
had
it
three
times
inside
the
five
and
come
away
with
three
points
out
of
three
possessions
and
we're
going to
look
back
at
these
possessions
and
regardless
of the
outcome
it needs
to get
better
we're
currently
down
four
points
with
nine
minutes
to
go
it's
it's
not
really
looking
great
for
the
Falcons
but
we're
going
to
want
those
back
that's
not
great
execution
got to
run
the ball
right
there
you've
got to
run
the ball
in
right
there
you're
on
the
two
well
it's
going to
be
98
yards
away
one
back
in
the
back
field
for the
quarterback
Smith
he's
going to
leave
it
with
his
back
coming
off
the
left
side
and
hit
the
four
and
push
back
and
that's
going
to
be
settlers
again
second
down
now
the
clock
becomes
a little
bit
of a
factor
with
850
to
go
your
defense
needs
to
get
the
ball
back
as
soon
as
possible
but
leaning
on
this
defense
to
come
up
with
stop
after
stop
after
stop
it's
tough
when
you're
not
getting
points
and
you're
inside
the
five
three
times
Falcons
defense
has
forced
one
turnover
can
another
Smith
has
settlers
in the
backfield
in the
second
down
play
going to
leave it
with
settlers
again
trying to
kick it
outside
and gets
to the
8-9
yard line
and pushes
far across
the 10
ball
on the
ground
and
it's
Florence
ball
they recovered
it at
the 12
big break
for the
Falcons
the officials
coming to
discuss
they better
not reverse
that
there will
be a
riot
down
there
it should
be
Florence's
football
Florence
needs to
get their
offense
out there
and start
to play
Florence
football
at the
12
they're
still
talking
about
it
here
we go
a white
hat
says
first
down
Florence
big
turnover
right there
Jeffrey
Jones
who
recovered
it
I'm not
sure
who
got it
but
it
was
a
Falcon
did
come
away
with
it
I
think
Barrett
might have
come
away
with
I
don't
know
who
made
the
hit
but
it
was
a
big
play
and
now
Florence
gets
a
fourth
chance
and I
got a
feeling
number
and in
the
back
field
J-Shod
Pearson
that
quarterback
with
Triplett
in the
back
field
with
him
on
the
first
and
10
play
at
the
12
J-Shod
rides
it out
leaves
it
with
Triplett
nowhere
to go
he's
knocked
down
after
no
game
and
and
it
it
actually
takes
a lot
of
the
guesswork
away
from
Huntsville
because
we know
we've
yet to
see
J-Shod
pass
it
now
I'm
sure
that
there's
a
wrinkle
somewhere
in
the
playbook
I
haven't
seen
yet
but
their
ears
are
pinned
back
for
this
running
game
if
you
see
it
be
ready
for
the
tight
in
LaShawn
Shepard
second
out
play
second
and
ten
blitz
coming
Pearson
going
to
keep
it
up
the
middle
and
he
goes
nowhere
he
loses
shortage
back
to
the
17
flag
maybe
a
face
mask
there
where
I
saw
J-Shod's
head
J-Shod
his head
did get
pulled
around
and
that
would
be
huge
and
I
think
it
is
what
a
break
is
it
a
15
yarder
he
said
this
against
Huntsville
and
it's
going
to
mark
it
down
inside
the
10
and
second
down
and
about
four
to
go
second
down
and
five
and
Florence
goes
heavy
package
with
under
center
again
Davis
this
time
going
to
leave
it
with
Martin
bounces
up
the
middle
spins
far
to
about
the
five
and
that's
where
he'll
put
down
gain
of
about
two
third
down
and
about
three
is
that
right
they
have
to
get
to
the
two
yard
line
J-J-J-
yes
they
J-Shot
running
tailback
that's
correct
all
right
under
center
with
Pearson
behind
him
tried
for
the
hard
count
didn't
work
third
down
and
four
to
go
three
to
go
got to
get
to
the
two
for
a
first
play
clock
at
10
boy
everybody's
up
in
the
box
going
to
look
to
give
it
barely
got
it
away
ball
now
taken
by
Pearson
he's
running
for
his
life
he's
out
at
he's
out
on
the
track
actually
and
there's
a
flag
late
but
we'll
take
it
it's
either
against
Florence's
sideline
or
it's
against
them
for
a
late
hit
we'll
see
what
they
say
he's
ripping
everybody
into
the
track
again
so
it
doesn't
look
like
this
is
going
to
it's
against
Huntsville
okay
it's
a
personal
foul
against
Huntsville
and
that's
our
first
down
when
our
guy
ends
up
on
the
track
that
means
he got
slung
a little
bit
too
far
out
of
bounds
648
to go
in the
game
Florence
trails
by
four
timeout
on the
field
we'll
be
back
in
30
thankfully
with
auto
owners
insurance
doesn't
have
to
be
one
of
them
auto
owners
works
with
independent
agents
who
answer
when
you
call
so
you
can
worry
about
more
important
things
like
whether
your
kid
is
going
to run
toward
first
or
the
score
the
injured
back
here
at
Milton
Frank
Stadium
where
the
injured
player
for
Huntsville
is
walking
off
under
zone
power
it's
good
to
see
the
flag
will
make
it
JJ
is
that
second
down
or
third
down
now
it's
going
to be
third
again
third
down
the
ball
is
marked
down
at
the
two
yard
lines
where
they
marked
the
ball
now
he's
stepping
it
back
going
to
bring
it
back
where
is
he
going
to
put
it
the
five
yard
line
I
mean
they
have
no idea
thrown
out
at
about
the
12
yeah
it
would
be
a
half
yardage
penalty
I
I
think
flags
against
Huntsville
so
it's
going
to
be
fourth
and
two
and
we
got
another
flag
just
thrown
on
the
defense
well
what's
the
reason
JJ
are they
talking
the
defense
said
something
to
the
back
judge
the
back
judge
is
not
like
it
it's
about
time
Huntsville
losing
their
composure
the
offense
not
out
there
it's
still
third
down
well
there's
now
personal
foul
so
that's
got
to
sort
it
out
and
it
appears
as though
we're
having
trouble
sorting
things
out
we
have
the
official
personal
fouls
now
right
the
ball
is
Huntsville
penalties
have
gone
against
them
they'll
move
it
down
half
the
distance
the
ball
is
at
the
two
that
should
be
enough
for
a
first
down
first
and
two
first
and
goal
at
the
two
now
you
go
in
there
and
you
go
and
get
the
ball
in
if
you
can
for
Florence
with
648
to go
down
21-17
but this
Huntsville
defense has
held the Falcons
out of the
end zone
all this
half
Florence
will come
with a
heavy
package
Davis
will go
under
center
Zoe
Martin
is
your
tailback
on
this
play
on
the
first
down
going to
leave it
with
Martin
off the
right
side
little
touchdown
Falcons
in the
end zone
and Florence
takes the
lead with
644
to go
and
everybody
in blue
very
excited
after that
one
wow
it took
forever
Mike
but we'll
take it
it was
it's
it's
been a
tense
quarter
and a
half
here
in this
second
half
it's
been
back
and
forth
but the
Falcons
were able
to catch
a break
here and
there
and be
able to
punch
it in
you know
now we're
going to have
to have the
defense answer
the call
once again
good snap
good hold
extra point
on the way
extra point
up

take
the
lead
24
21
on a
crazy
night
of
football
in
Milton
Frank
Stadium
Greenhall
to kick
it away
puts a
pretty good
foot into
this one
going to be
taken at
the 10
yard line
at the
15 to
the 20
skips around
to the
25 and
knocked down
at the
22 yard
line
and the
late
flag
did I see
a flag
coming there
or am I
wrong
no you
did it
it was
from way
on our
sidelines
right in
front of
our head
coach
it was
a hold
right in
front of
our head
coach
it was
like
Kenny
Marson
said
there
that's
the
hold
and he
got
the
call
I
like I
said
we have
to
their
intensity
we have
to use
it against
them
and we've
done
that
on the
offense
did it
the defense
was just
they were
running their
mouths
and they
were
just
they need
to calm
down
and Huntsville
needs to
calm
down
Florence
leads it
by three
it's far
from over
637 to
go
I'm pretty
sure
Settlers
is going
to be
the tailback
he's been
outstanding
the quarterback
Smith
has two
to the left
and one
to the right
you've got
to know
where Grissom
is
he's a
game breaker
going to
leave it
with the
tailback
trying to
bounce it
around
the right
side
and gets
about
to the
15-yard
line
and push
down
there
give him
about
three or
four
that's
Drake
right
there
zero
on the
carry
I thought
it was
eight
I put
it through
binoculars
but maybe
you're right
that's
zero
all right
zero
I will
be seeing
help
very soon
I've got
one
I've got
one contact
lens
and you've
got binoculars
back to the
right
throws a quick
out
and incomplete
boy the
Falcons read
that as the
Huntsville
Panthers go
quick and it
brings up
third down
and five
with 611
to go
boy you get
a stop
here and force
a punt
it would be
humongous
you could tell
Huntsville
Huntsville's reeling
a little bit
they're not there
they really weren't
concentrating on that play
didn't even look back
for that pass
definite miscommunication
there
now they're going
to sub
with 20 on the
play clock
they'll flip
two to the
wide side
so look
they got in
the slot
Grissom
they're going
to try to line
Grissom up
with their safety
you've got to
watch him
rolling
looking left
wanting to throw
throws it
to the middle
of the field
and overthrows
everybody
and he almost
intercepted
tremendous job
by the Falcon
defense
they ran
the route
better than
the Huntsville
Panther did
right there
and you know
while Jay
Shaw made a
wonderful play
on that
the problem
was
is that
he actually
by getting
his hands
on the ball
tipped it up
gave the Huntsville
player another
opportunity
but great job
by the Falcons
there
to possibly
force a three
and out
now let's be
let's be safe
about this one
being in the
fourth quarter
this is going
to be tough
don't go crazy
just sit there
no just sit
in there
don't jump
there's the snap
and Richardson
punts it away
and Jay Shod
will go back
and let it hit
he won't even
touch it
get away from
the ball
everybody
makes a
Florence bounce
back at the
49 to the
50 almost
Falcons have it
in great
territory
554 leading
by three
and they're
51 yards away
from maybe
putting this
away and going
five and one
and reaching
play
our friend is
the clock
right now
and as Chris
Berman would say
after every play
tick tick tick
tick tick
that's what we
need right here
Falcons have an
opportunity to
really put this
game out of reach
both teams have
two timeouts
triplets going
all the way at
tailback and
being outstanding
the best game
of his senior
season
can he do it
one more time
Goolsby to the
right
McDonald to the
left
the big blue
band playing
cheerleaders
cheering
here we go
going to leave
with triplet
and he's hitting
the backfield
and he's going
to get back
and spin for it
and get about
three yards
and all the way
up to the 48
he was hit
for a loss
of two
and he ended
up getting
three
second down
and seven
and the clock
will tick
under six
minutes
Kevin we've
got some
Panthers
some D linemen
I'm noticing
they're getting
up slow
they're limping
they're gassed
but triplets
coming out
a little
gimpy there
so the Carson
Johnson will
come in
and that might
change what
you're thinking
here but I
think triplets
said I'm okay
just give me
a breather
might have got
that ankle
a little twisted
when he was
tackled
Falcons can run
it down to
almost the 5-10
mark
Davis the
quarterback
has been
outstanding
Davis going
to leave
with Johnson
no throw
the quick
out
got it
batted down
incomplete
had him
out there
but again
that defensive
line
getting the
hands up
and it
brings up
third down
and stops
the clock
most importantly
at 5-09
that's a good
job by the
defensive line
there to be
able to get
their hands
up and knock
down that
ball for a
second time
looked like
number 90
on that tip
he is being
unbelievable
Shelby is a
junior
we'll see him
again next
year
no thanks
third and
eight
at the
49
15
hands on
if Alabama
passes
an NIL
rule
Kevin
one back
in the
backfield
I think
that is
still
Johnson
to the
left
blitz
coming
Davis just
needs to
get rid
of it
going
what a
one
got
McDonald
out there
he caught it
at the
15
and knocked
down
at the
13
what a
throw
by
Davis
what a
play
by
McDonald
that's
the
biggest
play
of the
game
first down
Florence
that was a
huge play
there by
Cade
being able to
throw it up
and just
loft it
loft it up
into the
basket
and Jimmy
McDonald did a
great job
of really
just reading
that one
and catching
it in stride
great job
they brought
the house
that was a
Peyton Manning
play
he knows he's
in one-on-one
coverage and he
just lays it out
there to give
his guy
chance
is Johnson
still in at
tailback
I think he
is
yes he is
Johnson at
tailback
from the
12
man in
motion
Davis
takes his
time
gonna leave
with Johnson
off the
left side
got to the
10 to
the 5
he'll walk
into the
end zone
touchdown
Florence
to Carson
Johnson
and with
430 to
go
Florence
is up
by two
scores
30 to
21
and the
boys in
blue
going
crazy
what a
great job
by that
old line
getting in
there
they got
all the
D linemen
on the
ground
what about
it Mike
that was a
play by
the Carson
Johnson
that was a
beautiful job
he was gonna
cut it outside
he saw the
hole open up
stuck his
foot in the
turf
and exploded
through that
hole
had nobody
touch him
ran right in
for the
touchdown
Graves
P-A-T
on the way
Graves
P-A-T
it's up
it is good

drive for
florence
john mcdaniel
having four
plays 51
yards
minute 23
set up by
a 35-yard
pass play
to mcdonald
but a
what 16-yard
touchdown run
by the
carson johnson
greenhal
boots it
away
and that
one goes
all the way
through into
the end zone
touchback
we'll take it
from the
youngster
i don't
wait to
put the
touchback
at the
biggest
time of
the game
i'll take
that from
a kicker
any day
jeffrey jones
jj still
walking on
the sideline
sorry i
had my
i had the
mic in
the wrong
hand
uh yeah
i would
i'll take
that any
day as
well
that's a
good
spot
we're
gonna
have
80 yards
to go
with four
minutes
and 30
seconds
left
is that
a left
handed
or right
handed
microphone
well i
was
holding
a lot
of
things
here
a couple
microphone
phone
yeah
sorry i
got nothing
else
they're
dancing
in the
stands
and they're
trying to
get mike
and john
to dance
with them
here you
go john
first and
10 at
the 20
for the
panthers
this defense
has got to
play big
for florence
here
smith the
quarterback
back
looking to
the right
side
those
the
out
complete
got at
the 17
out to
the 23
and knocked
out of
bounds
around
the 26
yard line
as he
swings it
to his
back
out of
the
backfield
i
believe
that's
still
drake
423
to go
stop
the clock
you're
up
you don't
want to
make it
too easy
here
you got
to make
sure
that you
play
good
defense
might
right
continue
to play
your game
you know
and be
able to
just keep
everything
in front
of you
force
them to
make
little
little
plays
eliminate
the big
play
make them
little
plays
and have
them run
the clock
the clock
is your
friend
at this
point
straight
drop
looking
to the
left
blitz
coming
now he's
flushed
out of
the pocket
rolls
to the
right
that's
when he's
dangerous
now he
throws
away
incomplete
had nowhere
to go
with it
throws it
away
with 414
to go
to bring
up third
down
and three
good call
by coach
wisdom
he managed
to get
an unblocked
defender
off of the
front side
but the
quarterback
just able
to shake
him loose
but great
defensive effort
good coverage
in the
backhand
Lawrence
getting some
subs in
on the
defensive
line
they've
been
unbelievable
third
and three
here
I wouldn't
be surprised
if Huntsville
runs the
ball here
they need
to get
the first
down
is that
settlers
that came
back in
the game
now
oh
my
binoculars
are left
handed
all right
here we go
to the left
Dawkins
Dawkins
in the game
straight drop
wants to throw
Smith
has pressure
Smith
sacked
almost throws
it away
and almost
intercepted
brings up
fourth down
that ball
was floating
in the air
and the Falcons
were coming
for it
Burski
was coming
up on it
I think
it was
we'll
double check
the nose
irons
but it
brings up
fourth
and three
from the
27
and Huntsville
has no
choice
they've got
to go
for it
this
if Florence
could stop
them here
could be
it
up by
10
where it's
down
21-17
and Florence
has put
14 up
in the
fourth
quarter
and listen
to the
Falcon
crowd
they're
on their
feet
at Milton
Frank
the road
crowd
trying to
pull the
boys
in white
and blue
through
trips to the
left
back to pass
looking
wanting to
pass
flushing
out of
the pocket
he's in
trouble
rolling
he's in
trouble
he's sacked
he's going
back
he's still
on his feet
and he
falls down
back at
the 10
and Florence
defense
would not
let him
get anywhere
close to
throwing the
ball
and what
about that
day
Mike Albertson
the defense
was relentless
they did a
great job
on that
play
the quarterback
was truly
running for
his life
he was just
running back
and forth
had no
chance
but the
Falcons
coming up
with that
big fourth
down play
we've got
some extra
help from
the officials
because he's
still running
the clock
despite
the ball
being dead
we lost
about 15
seconds
there
so
337 to go
Nate Pride
was in on
that along
with Jaden
White
those big guys
they were not
going to let
him get rid
of it
and now
Florence will
have it at
the 10
yard line
up by
10
with 357
to go
now you want
to take care
of the football
don't do
anything stupid
just run
some plays
here
points are
not the
key right
here
clock is
the key
in taking
care of
the football
points would
be nice
though
Davis will
come out
there
at quarterback
and I think
it's still
Johnson
going to be
in a tailback
if I'm not
mistaken
first down
play
at around
the 10
and the
Panthers
nearly
jumped
Davis
looks
back
to the
sideline
Shepard
will go
in motion
to the
left
Davis
leaps
inside
with his
tailback
cuts it
back
to the
10
yard
line
and gets
far
to about
the
seven
gain of
about
two or
three
take care
of the
football
and the
clock
will run
almost
down
to
three
minutes
leading
by
ten
Jeffrey
Jones
DeCarson
Johnson
in the
biggest
moment
not got
many
carries
but he
come in
and gets
a touchdown
and play
with a little
confidence
here
what a
great
number
two
to walk
in
and you know
DeCarson
hadn't gotten
as much
playing time
this year
as he did
last year
but man
this is a
perfect time
for him
to earn
he's done
a great
job
Goolspey
wide
left
McDonnell
wide
right
Davis
will run
that
clock
down
on the
second
down
play
second
down
in
eight
to go
from
the
ten
going to
leave it
with
Johnson
again
pushes
forward
and hit
at the
seven
again
you get
probably
no
gain
and the
clock
will continue
to run
Huntsville
won't use
the time
out yet
really
surprised
by this
Kevin
not using
time
outs
third
down
and about
seven
to go
I would
not kick
a field goal
here
no matter
what
you're up
by ten
but a
block
kick
makes it
more
dangerous
to get
scored
quick
on
I know
you're
good
with it
but I
wouldn't
try it
I'd just
run my
offense
down
here
I wouldn't
throw it
here either
I'd go
ahead and run
it again
and maybe
run this
clock
all the way
down
and call
the time
out
see what
Kenny
Marson
will do
looks like
that's
where he's
at
gonna let
the clock
run
and he's
gonna put
his offense
in there
with six
with five
with four
and they're
gonna run
the play
three
two
get the snap
going to the left
side this time
Johnson's in trouble
he goes down
at the 15
they brought the
blitz that time
and he knocked
down at the 15
yard line
and with 218
and counting
and Huntsville
still not
using their
timeouts
William
Gay
gonna save
those two
timeouts
for next
week
maybe
that would
be nice
you know
on fourth
down here
now I might
put it in the
air to the
end zone
Mike
I might
go ahead
and say
all right
give Jimmy
McDonald a
chance
we're
gonna let
it run
down
to one
second
and call
timeout
would you
maybe
go for the
throw right
here and let
him have a
chance
I mean
look
it's
going to be
hard to argue
with any
play
I know
that you
say
don't kick
it
I always
like putting
points on
the board
I don't
think it
helps you
I know
it helps
you with
10
but 13
two touchdowns
but it also
forces two
extra points
which isn't a
gimme at this
level
timeout on the
field
we'll keep
it right
here
I argue
with you
for this
reason
your defense
has played
outstanding
I'd rather
give them
the ball
inside the
15 yard line
than kick
it off
to them
so I'm
just gonna
play it
safe here
and I
think
Kenny
Marston
first of all
says let's
see what
we'll do
here
he brings
his team
over
his fourth
down
and basically
15 yards
to go
Jeffrey Jones
they sit
at what
yard line
now
the 17
the actual
16
well in between
the 16
and 17
yard line
and I have
to touch
the two
for the
first down
yeah
that's it
I mean
it's
it's a
long way
to go
minute 38
on the clock
by the way
Huntsville
still has
two timeouts
Florence
with one
and Kenny
Marston
his team
down by
four
has rallied
back
to go up
by ten
would you run
a screen
or a draw
right here
I'd be
safe
I throw
if I don't
I throw it
in the end
zone
I don't
give them
a chance
I don't
throw it
short
it's got
to be a
throw
in the end
zone
because
we've
got to
get to
what
the one
to score
I mean
to the first
down
I like it
they go
spread
everybody's up
in the box
except one
on one
out here
let's see
if they give
Jimmy McDonald
a chance
straight drop
wants to throw
throw the fade
to the right
side
McDonald's
out there
caught it
touchdown
Falcons
put the
exclamation
point
from Davis
to McDonald
and it's
a beauty
let's fly
home to
Florence
with a win
tonight
what a game
Florence
up 36
21
37
21
pinned in
the extra
point
I just
want to
highlight
early on
in the season
we didn't
really know
what the
quarterback
situation
was going to
be like
Cade Davis
had struggled
in that
first game
and got
taken out
well he
has bounced
back since
then
and has
played
tremendously
it's been
his team
his game
and
he's really
led this
team
so great
job on
Cade to
show that
adversity
early on
but coming
back
great play
to Jimmy
McDonald
beautiful
touch
Austin
Austin
is going
for
two
points
in the
win
at
their
game
with
30
seconds
to
go
after
a
touchdown
we'll
keep you
updated
on that
one
if they
score
that
two
point
conversion
they'll
take
the lead
with
30
seconds
if not
next week
could be
incredible
extra
point
up
extra
point
good
new
score
Florence
38
Huntsville
21
this is
Falcon
football
we're
back
in
30
it's
football
time
in
Alabama
the
players
are
hitting
the
field
the
cheerleaders
are firing
up the
crowd
the
drum
majors
striking
up
the
band
and
we
all
stand
to
the
national
anthem
this
is
congressman
robert
adderholt
while you
cheer your
favorite team
this season
i'll be
on president
trump's
team
shaking
things
up
in
washington
when we
stand
on
conservative
principles
it's
a win
for
everyone
i'm
robert
adderholt
and i
approve
this
message
paid
for
by
adderholt
for
congress
131
to go
oh
unsportsmanlike
penalty
on the
falcons
so the
falcons
will have
a 15
yarder
on the
kickoff
with
134
to go
but the
falcons
lead it
and
austin
just took
the lead
over james
clemens
with 30
seconds
to go
31
30
here
forenst
though up
by 17
with 134
to go
that last
drive there
john
was a
good one
well
kevin
it was
i believe
it was
four plays
and it
only took
11 yards
but two
minutes
22
seconds
to get
there
good
squib
kick
by green
hog
down the
field
we'll
bounce
and
take
in
at
the
25
bouncing
outside
stays
on his
feet
at
the
40
and
finally
to
midfield
and
brought
down
around
midfield
there
so
good run
back
for
grissom
with
126
to go
in a
17
point
game
somebody
might
say
well
you get
some
different
guys
in the
game
no
no
no
this
is
region
playoffs
at
stake
you do
not
you close
this out
I
agree
normally
normally
I'm
I'm
a substitute
person
but
this
is
still
just
a
let's
get
out
of
here
with
a
win
let's
make
sure
time
to
make
a
statement
play
well
play
smart
play
clean
four
wide
outs
for the
quarterback
Smith
Smith
straight
drop
wanting to
pass
looks to throw
the swing
pattern
complete
got it
to
Drake
out
here
to
the
45
breaks
attack
with
a
40
stays
on
his
feet
stays
knocked
out
of
bounds
at
the
34
with
116
and a
flag
on
the
play
it's
got to
be
got to
be
in
the
area
of
holding
down
field
maybe
defensive
holding
our
guys
look
appear
like
it's
on
us
so
I'm
not
certain
how's
it
defensive
holding
so
it'll
be
at
the
31
yard
line
after
the
penalty
so
you're
up
by
17
with
117
to go
but
you've
given
have
they
marked
it
off
Kevin
have
they
done
anything
they
haven't
okay
it
is
Austin
just
won
in
overtime
on
a
two
point
conversion
still
30
seconds
to
go
30
seconds
to
go
the
last
I
heard
run
in
the
round
to
left
and
not
get
it
back to
pass
looking
throws to the left
side
incomplete
try to get to
Batson
Batson
couldn't catch it
the pass
was under
thrown
Falcons
defense
playing a little
prevent
111 to go
second down
and goal
or not to go
second down
and 10
at the 15
two wide
outs to the
right
two to the
left
for the
quarterback
Smith
back to
pass
looking to
the right
this time
wanting to
throw
throws the
out
pattern
complete
at the
20
pushed
out
to the
15
to the
10
great
speed
down
the
sideline
to the
five
he's
close
to the
end
zone
they
give him
the
touchdown
they do
touchdown
Huntsville
so Huntsville
scores with a minute
on the clock
to cut it
to 38
27
how big
was that
touchdown
now by
Jimmy
McDonald
so will
Huntsville
go for
two here
I think
they are
they appear
to be going
for two
so they'll
go for
two points
here
and this
is a
big play
too
it would
still be
a nine
point
game
Huntsville
still has
what
do
they still
have
two
timeouts
left
I think
they do
I haven't
got them
with any
timeouts
called
this
half
they had
one
I know
they called
them
in this
half
two
wide
receiver
decided
and a
flag
I think
they're
going to get
an illegal
substitution
against
Huntsville
the official
the official
said
I didn't
like what
I saw
there
and he's
going to
call a
flag
against
Huntsville
on the
two-point
try
if you're
Florence
you've got
to just
cover the
ball
and
recover an
onside kick
in a few
minutes
like I
said
wild
things
happen
I'm
not
ever
going to
put
this
one
away
until
it's
put
away
people
are
cheering
in the
stand
something
must have
happened
at the
seven
back to
pass
looking to
the right
now
he looks
at those
across
a little
wide
open
and got
the
two-point
conversion
it's
good
so
the
two-point
conversion
is good
trims this
lead to
38-29
after the
touchdown
by Grissom
with one
minute to
go
this is
Falcon
football
we're
back

New
score
Florence
leads
at
38-29
with a
minute
to go
Huntsville
attempting
an onside
kick
now
final
score
James
Clemons
just
walked
it off
with a
field goal
to win
it
33-31
over
Austin
the
Falcons
if they
win
tonight
can be
playing
for a
region
championship
next week
against
Spartan
and they
got to
finish
this
one
off
first
wow
this
region
has been
absolutely
unreal
still one
minute
though
like you
said
Kevin
that's a
big
minute
that's a
big
minute
you're
still up
two
scores
with
nine
but
you've
got to
recover
one of
the
two
onside
kicks
possibly
don't
hope
there's
not a
second
one
James
Clemons
wins it
on a
walk-off
against
Austin
and
Florence
right
now
sits
the top
class
7a
region
four
the word
starting to
get to
the
sideline
too
they're
starting to
celebrate
on the
sideline
a little
bit
but you
got to
win
this
first
it looks
like I
think
and that's
what
it just
reached
the
sidelines
they're
going to
kick
the
onside
kick
here
you've
got to
spread
out
and I
don't
like
the
Falcons
are
right
now
they're
not
spread
out
enough
you've
got to
spread
out
and you've
got to
be able to
go get
the ball
no matter
what
the
onside
kick
goes
hadn't
gone 10
yet
pretty good
hop
Falcons
got it
going to
run it
for a
touchdown
to
the
20
to
the
15
10
5
touchdown
Florence
caught
it
on
a
hop
and
hopped
into
the
end
zone
and
the
Falcons
will
mob
him
I'm
not
sure
who
got
that
was
a
whistle
on the
field
flag
on the
play
let's
wait
and see
it's
going to
be
after
the
play
but
it
certainly
should
be
on
the
Falcons
I
don't
know
what
it
will
be
called
but
we
had
some
guys
not
show
some
very
good
class
right
there
so
Florence
Sistrunk
caught
it
and
ran
it
back
52
yards
I
wouldn't
advise it
but it
just
bounced
right
in his
hands
Mike
and
he
took
off
down
the
left
side
line
wide
open
right
so
as
you
were
saying
earlier
as
the
Falcons
were
lining
up
Sistrunk
actually
came
to
the
outside
he
adjusted
well
to
the
outside
and
that
play
wide
open
for
him
the
ball
bounced
right
up
into
his
chest
and
there
was
nobody
in
front
so
he
just
ran
it
in
graves
p-a-t
attempt
coming
snap
good
hold
good
kick
on
the
way
kick
up
kick
good
Florence
leads
it
45-29
with 52
seconds
to go
this is
Falcon
football
we're

30

16
point
lead
after
kickoff
return
by
Sistrunk
52
yards
on the
onside
kick
attempt
I begged
somebody
to
recover
it
we
recovered
it
all
right
so
kicking
off
after
a
five
yard
penalty
will be
Greenhall
from the
35
I went
and squib it
here
I just
go ahead
and kick
as far
as I
can
and that's
what he
does
he boots
it all
the way
down
inside
the
10
after
the
five
yard
penalty
taken
there
by
the
Panthers
and
spins out
and knocked
down
right at
the
24
yard
line
now
Jeffrey
Jones
the big
key
it's
just
finish
this
off
and
finish
it
off
with
class
you
finish
it
off
and
keep
your
head
up
class
is
the
thing
we've
had
a couple
plays
ourselves
where we
didn't
execute
flawlessly
like we
should
have
with
class
and
respect
but
Huntsville
has
to
we've
got to
clean
that
up
this
is
game
eight
I
know
this
far
team
is
excited
but
this
is
where
they
just
take
care
of
themselves
and
so
class
here
cooler
heads
will
prevail
we have
enough
smart
kids
in our
team
to where
we can
keep
that
from
happening
only
takes
one
that's
all
I'll
say
first
and ten
for the
Panthers
back to pass
looking right
now those
left
completely
got out
to
Grissom
he splits
a triple
team
and finally
gets out
to the
35
he is
a fast
really
good
player
there
Mike
he has
so
many
moves
but
Mornay
just
has
great
speed
yeah
great
top line
speed
he's able
to have
a quick
step
he gets
the top
speed
pretty quick
as well
so he's
a great
athlete
32 seconds
and counting
throw it
across the
middle
and complete
actually complete
on the
sideline
excuse me
as he faked
and went to
the sideline
and it's
going to be a
first down
down on
the 50
yard line
Falcons make
a tackle
there with
24 seconds
to go
can't get
him in
play with
the clock
to run
well I take
that back
the clock
is running
clock's running
Jimmy Gay
has saved
those two
timeouts
I don't
think he
shows
class
he's an
old coach
that knows
his veteran
stuff
Smith
going to
pass
again
drop
back
has plenty
of time
steps up
in the pocket
I think
he'll throw
as far
as he can
he throws
it to the
sideline
and it's
incomplete
and that
runs it
down to
six seconds
on the
clock
should be
the last
play
should be
this Huntsville
team still has
something to
play for
I'm not sure
how this
all shakes
out but
they've still
got a real
good chance
to get in
the playoffs
so it's a lot
to play for
but Florence
one play
away from
maybe putting
this one
away
back to
pass
Smith
looking again
last play
of the game
steps up
in the pocket
now he's
going to be
hit
now he gets
away
now he's
going to
run with
it
and he
slides down
that's a
great play
just go
ahead and
slide down
and that'll
do it
Florence wins
it by a
score of
45-29

45-29
let's go down
to Jeffrey Jones
with the happy
head coach
Kenny Marson
coach come
come from behind
win and
down
down late
in the game
tell us about it
well I know
the radio's not
going to see
the smile
on my face
right now
but we got
some we got
some young men
that'll fight
till the end
they never
again
just like
at JC
they never
wavered
when the
scores happened
on them
never wavered
under adversity
so proud
of these young
men
this senior
class
is
set the bar
really high
from here on
and I'm so proud
of those young
men
we faced a really
good team
tonight
they were a very
good team
and they were
what we expected
them to be
what was the
difference with us
we felt like
again our speed
speed kills
and we've got
some really good
skilled guys
that made some
plays when they
had to make plays
they were very
physical like we
thought they were
on both sides
of the ball
and we just
kept fighting
we just kept
holding in there
until one of our
guys made a play
and we did
had some big ones
for us tonight
I'll be honest
we didn't really
expect to be in
this position
where we are
right now
but we're in
a great position
going into our
last region game
next week
well I just
heard JC
kick the field
goal to win
and last second
puts us in first
we're holding
the top spot
to be number one
and win a region
championship
for this community
and this school
will be huge
but we've got
Sparkman ahead of us
really good football team
we've just got to
keep being Florence
go enjoy this win
for 24 hours
then work on
Sparkman
thank you
a happy head coach
as he should be
Kenny Marson
Florence wins it
45-29
after trailing
17-14
at the end of three
the Falcons
went back to back
touchdowns
to take the lead
and they would not
relinquish it
and this Falcon team
somehow
some way
just keeps
finding ways
to win games
Mike Albertson
they've figured
some things out
they've done
exactly what the
coaches have asked
them to do
and they found
themselves in
position to win
in years past
the Falcons
when they face
adversity and
everything
will be a little
bit different
story
the Falcons
have not
stopped this year
they've really
dug deep
and when time's
gotten tough
they've figured
out a way
to come away
with victories
that's a game
changing performance
right there
from the third
to the fourth
quarter
and the Falcons
pulled it off
it's just a
magical game
a magical situation
and the Forens
are having a great
season
they're putting
it all out there
and just
man
I think
JJ said it best
we didn't really
think that we would
be in this position
early on in the
season
but this team
has gutted it out
week in and week out
and found a way
and you've got to
be proud of this
crew
cool
calm
collected
Cade Davis
the quarterback
I'm not sure
but I don't think
he threw a pick
tonight either
again
he's thrown
I don't know
how many touchdowns
he had tonight
in the air
but several
three on the night
give him 15
of the season
15 and 2
15 to 2
interceptions
is unbelievable
and the thing
is with Cade Davis
is there's something
about him
that you know
we didn't know
we were like
man where's
where we're
going to find
the quarterback
where we're
going to find
the quarterback
and all of a sudden
Cade Davis
says you know
what I'm a senior
and it's my
position
and I'm going
to take over
and every game
he grows
a little more
and a little more
and a little more
and I don't care
who you're playing
I don't care
what the competition
I don't care
what region
hats off to Cade Davis
for what he's done
this season
as quarterback
he has been my
MVP quietly
behind the scenes
yes absolutely
you know
and you know
how your quarterback
plays sometimes
how the team goes
and he's played
really really well
and the Falcons
have won a bunch
of games
so like
look
everyone's doing
their job
and everything
this doesn't happen
without the defense
or the wide receivers
or the offensive line
or anything
this is a team game
but Cade Davis
has definitely
led the way
for the Falcons
final stats
brought to us
by our good friends
at Chick-fil-A
John McDaniel
are you close
I'm done
I'm ready
let's go
he's ready
to rock and roll
let's take it
over there
to him
a lot of things
we talked about
in the pregame
wound up
manifesting in the stats
and on the scoreboard
let's start with the Panthers
tonight
for the game
the Crimson Panthers
294 yards of offense
they had 205 yards
rushing on 38 carries
10 completions
on 22 attempts
for 89 yards total
they had 18 first downs
tonight
2 for 11
on third downs
and 1 for 3
on fourth down
that's a terrific job
by the defense
12 penalties
for 80 yards
they had 2 turnovers
and their time of possession
22 minutes
47 seconds
Falcons tonight
350 total yards
of offense
we had 33 rushes
for 145 yards
wow
we had
11 completions
on 23 attempts
for 205 yards
20 first downs
4 for 10
on third down conversions
1 for 2
on fourth down conversions
8 penalties
for 60 yards
we also
2 turnovers
and our time of possession
we won this
finally for the second time
on the season
25 minutes
and 7 seconds
Cade
you mentioned him
he was 11 for 23
tonight
2-12
through the air
and 3 touchdowns
as we said
leading rusher
Kalon Triplett
19 carries
for 120 yards
couldn't get him
in the end zone
but a great job
by that young man
and an average
of 6.5 yards
to carry
and John Carter
Goolsbee
3 catches
98 yards
and a touchdown
that's it Kevin
that's what we got
it started in Huntsville
on the opening drive
going all the way
down the field
and scoring
behind a Sanders
2 yard touchdown
with 7.32 to go
to make it 7-0
it was Davis
to Goolsbee
for Florence
though
to answer back
late in the first quarter
on that big
78 yard touchdown pass
to tie it up
at 7
then again
it was Drake
for Huntsville
with a 1 yard run
to complete a long drive
to make it 14-7
in the second quarter
but Florence
answered right back
again it was Davis
this time to Pearson
and Jay Shod
wiggled his way forward
and dives forward
to get an 8 yard touchdown
to tie it at 14
and that's where we were
at the half
in the third quarter
Florence got the ball
to start the third quarter
and maybe the biggest
play of the game
they fumbled the kickoff
Huntsville got it
we thought oh no
here we go
but the Florence
defense holds
gets the ball back
on downs
right back there
and Florence drives
and puts up a field goal
from Charlie Grace
who makes it 17-14
that is a big play
a 24 yard field goal
and then in the fourth quarter
Florence then
really takes control
excuse me
Huntsville comes back
takes the lead
21-17
as they led it
with Settlers
getting the pass
and going in
from 38 yards out
then we go to the fourth quarter
down by four
and it was in the fourth quarter
Florence scored
31 points
to win this game
38-29
unbelievable plays
right there
for the Falcons
Johnson
got a big run
in that play
DeCarson Johnson
to put it away
at 38-21
it was just amazing
all around
and Settrunk
with the kickoff return
to make it 45-29
the final here
I tell you
so much scoring
was going on
I didn't get all the scores
written down
but I'll go back
and get them
my apologies to all
but I know
Kay Davis
as you said
with three touchdown passes
Florence's
Kalon Triplett
his best game
of his senior season
and boy
if there's a team
playing any harder
right now
than the region
four of class 7A
it's the Florence Falcons
who now sit atop
alone
and have one game
left against Spartman
next Friday night
they'll take on the Senators
and we're looking forward
to that one
you're listening to

the lights out on us
they're ready to go home
we are too
we're going home happy
to Florence
as the Falcons win
at 45-29
on the TNT Fireworks
post game show
let's get our final thoughts
from our good friends
around the horn
let's start with our
sideline reporter
Jeffrey Jones
lots of maturity
we've come a long way
we've got
Kay Davis
has grown up
and I mean
you know
not that he's not
a strapping young man
himself
but you know
he's grown up
and he's
matured a lot
and so has
John Carter Goolsby
you know
to start off
as the backup quarterback
and get moved to receiver
great move
makes his coaches
look like geniuses
really
I mean
and I can't say
that those coaches
aren't geniuses
but some of those
you know
I didn't agree
with every play call
they had tonight
but they executed well
you know
it could have hurt us
being within the
10 yard line
three times
and not coming away
with points
that worries me
a little bit
if there's anything
to work on
we need to work on
putting it in
when the game's
on the line
one thing
that we talked about
on the way home
a couple weeks ago
was
we need to learn
to win the close
and the tough games
and I think
we've come a long way
and we've learned
to win some of these
tough games
some of these games
in the past
we might not have won
just because of luck
some because of
you know
intensity
and that sort of thing
I really
I really think
this Falcon team
has showed more
improvement
from game one
to game eight
than any other
team I can remember
at this point
John McDaniel
I'll let you take it
from here
well I think
JJ's right
on most of his
points
and I think
that the Falcons
have done a good
job as he's
made mention of
they've matured
and they've gotten
better
the team that played
week one and two
against the two
really good teams
has
is they wouldn't
recognize themselves
playing this week
because they
play together
coach mentioned
about how they
were resilient
they really do
they do a good
job of so what
now what
and they play
the next play
and they did it
tonight
they had some
plays that
they gave up
some big plays
and they just
continue to
fight back
and you know
as JJ said
I might
would look at
it was glass
half full
we had three
chances to score
another touchdown
despite scoring
45 points
tonight
had chances
to score
even more
so this Falcon
team has
really done
a great job
of taking
the coaching
getting better
every week
and you know
just the way
things have
broke now
we're playing
next week
for a regional
championship
that these
guys deserve
they've worked
hard for
but you all
are going to
have to come
out and earn
it
they're going
to get
Sparkman's
best shot
and I'm
glad we've
got one more
home game
for the Falcons
Mike
yeah I mean
look the guys
said it all
and quite frankly
this team
has grown
each and every
week
they've worked
hard
they've done
everything that
the coaches
have asked
them to do
and then some
and I mean
I think Coach
Morrison had
shared with us
at one point
about the
senior leaders
taking ownership
of this team
and one of the
practices
is that coach
I don't think
we're doing
enough
and the boys
told him what
he wanted to
do and coach
listened
and you know
what that's
that's trusting
the coach
and trusting
his players
to know what
they need
and they came
out and I think
they wore pads
all week
and they beat
each other's tail
and it translated
and it translated
on to the field
and the team
started believing
at that point
they started
winning games
that they
probably shouldn't
have
and now
we're talking
about a culture
a culture
that's different
today than it
was in the
beginning of the
season
and everyone's
bought in
and so like
when you listen
to your coaches
and you have
a lot of success
it's really easy
to get on the
bandwagon
but Falcon fans
I'm telling you
right now
if you're not
in those stands
cheering on the
Falcons this week
where's your head at
because these guys
are fighting for you
and fighting for this city
so get out there
and fill up
Raleigh Stadium
for these boys
yeah
man y'all touched
on everything
and fill up
Raleigh Stadium
would be my
sentiment as well
hey
I mean
we can brag
on these kids
and players
all week long
and they deserve it
but let me start
with Kenny Morrison
that's a veteran coach
that has been around
a long time
and he said
you know what guys
we can do this
and he made this team
start believing
when they didn't
really believe
he made his young
coaching staff
start believing
when they weren't
sure to believe
it started with
the head coach
it started trickling
down to his staff
but then it trickled
down to the players
and right now
they're ready to take
on the Green Bay Packers
I mean that's just
the way they were
tonight
they're like
my goodness
we think we can
play with anybody
every week
we come into a game
and our radio crew
and many times
we'll say
on film guys
I just don't know
if we match up
very well
we don't match
we didn't think
we matched up
well tonight
coming into this game
and yet the better team
was the boys
from Florence
and the Falcons
are flying as high
as can be
and they will play
for their third
possible ever
region championship
next week
they won it in 2007
they won it in 2014
and now they go
for region championship
number three
with a win over
Spartan next week
at Brawley Stadium
Florence fans
you need to be there
Florence fans
you need to come out
and support this team
be loud and be proud
they are playing
for a region championship
and a number one seed
and a home playoff game
in class 7A football
hats off to Kenny
Marson
and the Florence Falcons
