BoardHater71 Posted December 4, 2016 Report Share Posted December 4, 2016 1A: It was a perfect start for Greenback jumping out to a 13-0 lead. Dresden was very dynamic offensively and once they got it going there was no way they were going to lose at this level of play. 2A: Trezevant was the better team and despite the fact that they continued to make things harder on themselves with foolish penalties they were able to overcome Marion Co. late (the injuries took a lot out of the late in the game). 3A: Alcoa jumped out to a lead early and Liberty put forth a great effort at the end of the first half/beginning of the second half. In the end though Alcoa just continues to prove they own this class. 4A: Memphis East was dominant in a surprising effort to me. Knoxville Central could not get anything whatsoever going offensively and in the end it was Memphis East who took their will and blew it open. 5A: Independence jumped up by 28 and it appeared to be headed toward a 35 point lead going into halftime. A mistake followed by a score before the intermission gave life to Farragut and in the second half they capitalized on countless Independence mistakes and cashed them all in for back breaking scores and completed one of the best comebacks in state history. 6A: Oakland had a promising start thanks to field position and silly mistakes. They built a 9-0 lead and it appeared for 3+ quarters like they would cruise to a victory. In the end Whitehaven showed tremendous heart and got off the deck and rallied to win a real defensive battle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WillieTheWildcat Posted December 4, 2016 Report Share Posted December 4, 2016 That sounds good to me but you left out one state championship game... Class What Should Have Been: The Irish of Knoxville Catholic jumped out to a 24 - 10 lead at halftime against a sluggish Oak Ridge squad The Wildcats got scores from Tee Higgins and Jordan Graham to tie it up but Catholic got four TDs from Amari Rogers to cruse to victory.
