Basically we know very little about EC other than the fact that you guys average over 300 yards on the ground a game. You basically know that we have a QB in which is committed to the University of Texas that has the skills to completely take over a game, which he has done many time. 3rd and 6 might as well be 3rd and 1 for this guy when he takes to the ground. He is powereful, and has good speed when he breaks out in the open. UT didn't offer him for nothing. He has plenty of weapons to throw to and a big bruising RB to give it to, plus a small scat back. We have more weapons than him but yes, he does make the world turn in Tatum football.

Otherwise it's a close game. A little fudging on the #'s. #2 Jalan Overstreet 6'2", 205LBS 6.56 and has UT Committed YES. Stop him and their done. Stop'em won't be easy. Tatum defense has given up alot of points. Game will be decided on the field and talk is cheap. [/quote] False....no fudging on the #s......That is how big Jalen was at the bieginning of his junior year...the recruiting databases never changed it.......talk to his mother in the stands all the time. Last camp he was at, 6'3 217, 4.5

[quote name="ECBucFan" post="1125858" timestamp="1321832227"] Predictions like [s]Green Bay Pac.... [/s] I mean [i]Tatum[/i] wins 56-12, and now an NFL roster for Tatum is posted...Hmmm... doesn't sound like EC should even bother showing up for the game...  ;) [/quote] You can take your cracks at me all you want but the bad thing is.....I'm not joking....these kids really are this big, lol. We're always that big and usually faster, we're much slower than year's past though. We have 4 or 5 DI prospects as we do every year. All I was doing was asking about your kids and trying to give you a little info on ours. The 56-12 prediction definitely isn't my prediction. I know this is gonna be a game. I think this game will be within 1 or 2 TDs.....the homer in me says Tatum, the homer in you says EC. It will all unfold friday night.

What kind of size ad speed are we looking at going up against EC? I know you guys are run heavy but how big should we expect and fast should we expect.

Arp by 4 TDs.....

We(Tatum) beat Bullard 44-25 this year but it was neck and neck til midway through the 4th when UT committ Jalen Overstreet took over the game. Basically they have no speed and no size. We're 2A and they are by far the smallest team we've seen. There is this one thing though, and you'll call me a fool for saying it, but heart. These kids will take the hardest hit you've even seen, get up, slap you on the butt, tell you nice hit, go back to the huddle, run the exact same play next time out only to get popped again just to pick up 5 more yards. Everything on paper and everything in my mind says WOS by 40......but everything in their heart says Bullard by 1.....and to them thats all that matters. They are indeed an underdog to the max. However...they'll fight you tooth and nail til the final whistle....and to be honest, I have no reason to believe they dont have a chance at this point. I honestly can not make a prediction on this game....WOS is twice the team, but Bullard believes. By the way Bullard hast made the playoffs since they were 2A in 1992/1993.
