Preview: Knoxville Central vs. Henry County

Knoxville Central will take on Henry County in each of the teams' fifth playoff matchup at 7:00 PM on Saturday. Both teams have allowed few points on average (Knoxville Central 10.36, Henry County 14.86), so any points scored will be well earned.

Knoxville Central might be getting used to good results now that the squad has 12 wins in a row. They snuck past Knoxville Catholic with a 24-19 victory.

Meanwhile, Henry County won their last game against Beech, and it was the same story this time around. Henry County got past Beech with less than a touchdown to spare, ending up at 13-7. This was a playoff game, so the win was all the more important for Henry County (and all the more bitter for Beech).

Their wins bumped Knoxville Central to 12-2 and Henry County to 15-1. Henry County's offensive line will need to gear up for a tough test against a Knoxville Central defensive front that amassed five sacks against Knoxville Catholic last Friday, so we'll see if they are up to the task.
