Has anyone brought up the fact that CAK is a higher seed than G-P? Betsy is the obvious one that is a higher seed than G-P, but so is CAK...... G-P is third at best

Never played Happy Valley...What will we see?

smoeone needs to double check me on my from the bleacher reporting, but I think Alcoa had 7 hankies and CAK had 4....3 more and your fussing....don't ever go play in elizabethton

On 96.3 FM you should be able to pick it up in Loudon.

come on GVK......make that 1,000 post before the game so we will see two milestones today

They did only play 9 games. It is taken into account...hence # of wins is before # of losses in tie-breaker. I understand that, but playing another game gives a team the opportunity to win and LOSE......just thinking out loud

how many games did happy Valley play in? for some reason I only have them in 9...personally I think teams should play in ten games(even if that means playing monday or sat. for weather) if it is only 9 it should be taken into account for the playoffs.....

oh wait...my bad...that was the other school off cedar bluff

I hear the sprinklers where left on all night in fear of the blount county team crossing the river tonight.........

According to TSSAA Playoff information and last night here is what I have..... Automatics... 1) Elizabethton 2) Sullivan North 3) West Greene 4) Cumberland Gap 5) Austin-East 6) G-P 7) CAK 8) Alcoa 9) Polk County 10)McMinn Central 11) Tyner 12) Bledsoe County 13) Sequatchie 14) Smith County 15) Cannon County 16) Goodpasture 17) Pearl Cohn 18) Camden 19) Stewart/Harpeth (winner) 20) Fairview 21) Lewis County 22) Milan 23) Manassas 24) BTW/Oakheaven (winner) That would leave 8 Wildcard spots 1) Loudon (7 wins) 2) York (6 wins).....and then it all begins........ Teams at 5 wins Johnson County 5-5, East Literature 5-5, Happy Valley 5-4, Kingston 5-4 (play Loudon tonight) Westview 5-4 (play Covington tonight) Teams trying to get to 5 wins.... Grundy 4-5 (play Notre Dame tonight) Harpeth 4-5 (play Stewart Tonight) Jackson Central-Merry 4-5 (play Lexington tonight) South Greene 4-5 (play Chuckey-Doak tonight) here is my stab in the dark at the final 8 Wildcard slots IMHO 1) Loudon 2) York 3) Grundy 4) Westview 5) Kingston 6) Johnson county and my two upset specials........Harpeth beats Stewart County which makes Stewart a wildcard and harpeth an automatic.... and Jackson Central-Merry beats Lexington, which puts them in

GVK and FBD's reaction to Alcoa's passing game...

ALCOA 99 CAK 2

That's what it would look like. Quad 3 1. Goodpasture- # 1 in district 8. Harpeth- WC 4. Sequatchie County.- # 2 in district 5. Pearl Cohn- # 5 in district 3. Smith Co.- # 2 in district 6. East Literature- WC 2. Cannon Co.- # 1 in district 7. Grundy Co.- WC Gerry I mentioned this a minute ago, but would Smith and Sequatchie trade places to keep #1 and #2 from the same district from playing in the second round.....or that is what the t$$aa video mentioned

Hey Indian, wake up. This is 2009. Not 1989. TSSAA jumps into this decision that was not favored by coaches or players, and now they have mislead people into what was going to happen. Who is going to hold the TSSAA accountable? Not people like you. I can tell you the way it helps. Instead of having districts, have regions 1-8 like the old system and combine districts 1-2, 3-4 and so on. That way if schools don't make the playoffs it's because they could not beat teams in their class, not in a class above them. But wait that makes too much sense so the TSSAA wouldn't do it. Gerry let me throw another fly in the....well whatever kinda of stuff this is. does it not also state that #1 and #2 seeds will be put on the other side of the brackets...such as Quad two...Polk is #1 and McMinn is #2 so McMinn should be put on the bottom....just making you think

No that is incorrect. I emailed the TSSAA with my scenario. The scenario I listed in my first post is what was emailed back to me. Teams are seeded based on their finish in their district not their subdivision. I promise you. We will all be upset come Saturday Morning, cause I have been told the TSSAA may even not use the criteria for placing teams, they may just set up interesting match-ups. This system is a slippery slope and coaches, parents, and players need to stand up to the T$$AA. Well if they want interesting matches...I am sure GVK and FB will be glad to "help" them have pleanty of entertainment if CAK and ALCOA are in different Quads

having watched both.....Scott by 21

I love to see all the trolls, usually it is a one sided afair with the hating on Alcoa, but I guess CAK has a following now This is going to be another loooooooong week

You are right sir...except that CAK is west of Farragut according to that map

The map is hard to read, but I think that is because CAK needs to be on the otherside of its little indicator dot...out of A-E and Alcoa CAK is the dot closest to middle TN, even though it is only a couple miles.... this is going to be a long week, I liked the playoff situation back a couple of years ago, when by this time you knew what was going on. 2A has been dealing with this for a couple years now. I wonder how long it will take for coaches/players/fans/admins. to start crying foul after sat?

Also, let me see what you think of this.....A-E is the number 1 seed from their district over G-P, that would change the brackets a bit more....

so Gerry.....let me throw this at you...according to the map is CAK more East than Kingston? why did you put Kingston going to the east bracket and not CAK..... I would love to see CAK go north and meet Alcoa in the semis. (if they made it that far, CAK that is)

can't wait to watch this one.....bridge can you tell the guys to keep it close, I would like to see a good half of football tonight.

NEVER!

Thanks, GVK I have seen the light If this bracket holds up then Alcoa would play Tyner, winner of Loudon A-E, then probably winner of CAK-Polk...that would be a pretty good three game stretch for the ole F5

I know that I for one would rather see this happen 1. Alcoa 7. York Inst. or Tyner 4. Austin-East 5. Loudon 3. CAK 6. McMinn Central 2. Polk 8. Kingston based on records it would seem CAK would get a 3 seed over A-E, But I also know that A-E is the top dog in their district
