Notes: The junior high and b-team got rained out this week and did not play...This will the Panthers first game at Jacksonville State University...With the starting defense still in the game, Collinsville has not given up any points. Points were given up when the Panthers have played b-team and junior high in each game...Collinsville is 23-4 in this decade...Collinsville is 26-4 in the last 30 games...1A Region 7 has four teams 3-0 and four teams 0-3...In two previous meetings, the two teams are 1-1 with both teams scoring 51 points...Collinsville was 9th in last weeks 1A top ten.



Quoting Coach Beckett:

On the Woodville game

"The good thing is that we played lots of people. The bad thing is the varsity didn't play long. It was out of hand too quick. With less than 15 offensive plays, we were in the 40's. No need to get anyone hurt."



On Sumiton Christian

"They are coming down from 2A and will be very good. DeMonte Hobbs and Austin Clark are very good football players. Nobody has slowed the two down yet. It will be very tough."



"Defensively they give you lots of pressure with stunts. They play lots of people so fatigue isn't a issue. Coach Blevins does a very good job."



On playing at Jacksonville State

"Our kids are euphoric to get to play at JSU. I've negotiated at several different venues the last couple years. We finally found the right fit. It is something the players will always remember. Paul Snow Stadium is really nice after they refurbished it."

"This venue is a great way to sale our program to younger players. Sometimes other's don't realize how today's players are very motivated by facilities."
