Background and storyline

This is an early nonleague test for both teams — both enter the game 0-0. Last year’s meeting in Mountain City was one-sided: Johnson County rolled to a 53-7 victory (full recap and box score from that game: https://scorebooklive.com/tennessee/football/games/4506491-johnson-county-vs-sullivan-east). Sullivan East will be looking to tighten up after that result, while Johnson County will try to build on the momentum from its dominant performance in 2024.
