Oakland @ Maryville

[bluedevilpride2012]

Oakland played Hoover to a 24-6 game back early in the season. I remember the CoachT posters asking back then "why is Maryville scared to play Hoover and/or Clay-Chalkville?". Is Maryville as good as Hoover? I've told people that they are better but many people doubt that opinion and say that Maryville's success is because they don't play in the "SEC of Tennessee High School Football" week in and week out. That's always been the big myth about MHS from folks here in the midstate area.

Oakland vs Maryville is going to be a case of one team ( Oakland) maybe having a couple of superior athletes but Maryville having the much better TEAM. As Blackman's coach said, Maryville has no weaknesses. Nearly impossible to beat a team that has no weaknesses and that is as well coached as Maryville.

Going to be a challenge for sure. Oakland will have to play flawless, but Creasy will have his team prepared.

Here in the east we like to say they recruit and play 9th graders. Everyone needs a crutch I guess.

Yep, gotta be some reason. Smoke and mirrors?

Wing-T is just one formation they run. They'll line up in several different formations

It really is a shame that Hoover and Maryville have never played,  they have both been dominant for so long.  This year's Hoover team was as bad as they have been since 1999. (they lost last night in the semi's) 

 

Hoover has played in the state championship 13 out of the last fifteen years,  winning the championship ten times. 

 

The only reason Hoover gets more recognition than Maryville is because they play 2-3 games a year against out of state teams and those games tend to get televised nationally. 

 

Anyone who thinks Maryville is not as good as Hoover,  just does not know football. Maryville could play with anyone in the southeast.

Lol. Yeah that's the secret code. Easier to make excuses than improvements I guess

It was decided to take a more liberal approach this week. Got tired of the buckteeth mountain conservative lingo.
