I think this will be a relatively close game, with Henderson winning by one to two TDs in the end. Then again, Bullard's strength is Henderson's weakness, and vise-versa, so anything can happen. It's really a toss-up but I'm sticking with Henderson to win.

Henderson with ease Lets be honest this is for the playoffs.

Henderson is showing itself to be undisciplined this year when it counts. A one-point loss here, and two-point loss there......that spells trouble with team confidence. I think Bullard has it together as a team, though they may not be as deep or talented as Henderson overall. For this reason, and this reason only, I'm picking Bullard to get a win here in a very close ballgame. Of course, now Henderson will come out and play like they should have been doing all year. All I can say is prove it on the field and the scoreboard. That's where it counts.

Henderson by 2 TDs, but won't be shocked if Bullard is able to hang on for the upset. Bullard is very efficient with the short pass and can move the ball. Henderson has the big play fireworks when #3 has the ball in his hands (every play now). The Bullard defense is very fast getting to the ball, but are they fast enough to catch a "Monsta" like #3? Henderson needs to stay focused and they will be fine, but mistakes will be exploited by a disciplined team like Bullard.

I agree, and Henderson had a chance to tie last week's game to send it to overtime, but couldn't line up right. That's the kind of thing that can cost you a win, and that goes back to discipline. If Henderson doesn't turn the ball over, or shoot themselves in the foot with penalties, they "should" win this game by a couple of TDs. That's why I'm still not positive about the outcome. I wouldn't be surprised either way, but I will give Henderson the nod because of their big play potential. Bullard has nobody on their team that can keep up with Monsta Brown speedwise in the open field. Bullard is methodical in their offensive approach, and can give Henderson's defense fits, and that's what balances the scales in this game.

Don't be so harsh & rush to a decision...White Oak did have a pulse.

Watching Henderson, Gilmer video - Henderson looks very one dimensional. Even the passes that Monsta threw were kind of up for grabs. #3 is a great talent, but Henderson won't go far if all they can do is run the wildcat. They probably still beat Bullard.

One of the best 3 loss teams out there. The main draw for GOTW though is how the game will determine playoff spots.

Good game Henderson. Looks like you guys are peaking at the right time. Good luck the rest of the way.

[poisoned10]

This is probably the best team Bullard has ever seen. Unfortunately for them, they played teams like Quitman and Huntington that didn't prepare them for the tough district they are in this year.

After the loss, Bullard is still in the playoff hunt. They need to beat Gilmer next week and have Kilgore beat Henderson.
