#4 in the state!! So they MUST be favored to smash the lowly CCS Chargers. Now if we can just get all of the experts on Chattanoogan and TFP to pick Boyd to win, that should make it a LOCK.

I assume you mean " ... so far this year" IMO ... McCallie is the team to beat.

Was thinking about that ... no team in the Chattanooga area (possibly the entire state) had a tougher schedule during the 1st 2 weeks of the season than CCS (against McCallie & Baylor). On the other hand, no team in the Chattanooga area had an easier schedule during that same period than Boyd Buchanan (both home school teams?). I'm looking forward to this game ... the homecoming for CCS. With the Boyd fans back on board, I'm sure the place will be packed. I saw pictures of the Boyd senior football players at Disney. Surely they will be back to practice on Monday getting ready for this game.

ND won 25-13

I watched the game on TV and was disgusted by the officiating. You would think that a state championship game would include an officiating crew that was also considered very good (at least) at what they do. The female official was awful and the other two were not very good either. The play that really bothered me was the last play of the 1st half (still about a 10 point game) ... TRA had just hit a shot and Webb was on a fast break trying to get a last second shot off ... the TRA player aggressively blocked the driving layup and came down pretty hard on the Webb player. A foul was immediately called, followed by a technical about 2 seconds later - even though the TRA player was walking away from the play and didn't appear to say anything to anybody (it was an obvious foul). They showed the replay and again, he didn't appear to say anything. Make no mistake ... Webb was going to win the game ... big ... but the officiating was an embarrassment to the TSSAA. Knoxville Webb was the best team we saw all year (by far), but we did not see CPA, Goodpasture or any of the West teams. I can't believe they only have 1 senior.

That doesn't make sense to me either ... but after getting our 1st look at "Middle" refs last Wednesday night while playing at Webb Bell Buckles gym, I understand how he could have easily got 2 T's. A lot of these officials have the attitude that we actually paid $7 to watch them officiate.

Thanks ... it was a pleasure meeting you as well. From what I saw, GCA is sitting prime for another state championship run ... I was very impressed. We struggled to put TKA away last night but our sophomore post stepped up with 30+ in a high scoring game. Look forward to seeing you again.

Let me get this straight ... nobody can talk about boys baseball on this football message board, but YOU can talk girls soccer? Snot Ball makes the rules everybody!!

The game really wasn't that close at all. If CCS didn't have 2 good kickoff returns (1 for a TD), they probably would have only scored 7. I'm not counting the last TD for CCS when Webb had their entire 2nd Defense on the field and CCS kept their starting O in. Next round will be interesting for the remaining East teams ... Webb missing one of their best backs, ND trying to play without a QB.

Just fixing to head to Knoxville. Every Friday, I'm hopeful that CCS will open things up on offense and do something different. Unfortunately, I think we're in for more of the same. So ... we need 4 perfect drives and put 28 points on the board. That still might not be enough, but anything less than 28 I don't think will be enough. Safe traveling to everyone.

100% TRUE!! I could type forever on all your points, but the QB running over to the sideline every play drives me crazy. How many delay of game penalty's have we received this year b/c of that? Sometimes, we can't get the 1st play off after a change in possession. The Grace QB made us look silly. He's getting a simple hand signal from the sideline, then calling audibles with hand signals when needed ... all the while getting the play off in about 10 seconds. In the meantime, we don't have time to run in a defensive sub. We made that kid look like Payton Manning. Webb's defensive lineman are going to flop right in front of our OL's legs. Do you think we'll run a sweep while they're laying on the ground? Or maybe a simple crossing pass with the passing lanes wide open? Not a chance ... Mondo left, Mondo right, Mondo up the gut, punt ... with the occasional bomb to #9 thrown in. One bad play and the drive is toast.

Oh ... I thought you were calling "typo" because he picked FRA to beat Grace

Quarters Lausanne ECS CPA St George's ND FRA BGA Webb Semis Lausanne CPA ND BGA Championship Lausanne BGA Champions  Lausanne

FRA would be playing ND in the quarterfinals ... they can't both win. You left out BGA/Silverdale winner

Congratulations to Grace on the win. From the opening coin toss (which CCS deferred and spotted the home team a 7-0 lead a minute & 20 seconds into the game), CCS never had a chance. It was a total mismatch of football playing. I've watched 10 weeks of DII-AA East football and Grace gets MY AWARDS this year for the following: Best National Anthem Almost the best prayer - JK The best QB (by far) The best receiving group The best offensive coordinator The best kicker (don't really know about the punter since we never saw him) As for CCS ... I'll simply say that our players deserve better. The game plan didn't give them a chance to win, but we have the athletes. Good luck to Grace in the playoffs.

Sorry, I meant to say "come from behind" touchdown ... my bad

LOL ... don't EVER say anything remotely positive about CCS football or else you'll have to read an endless diatribe from booger about why it isn't true. And he also forgot to tell you that Notre Dame had to resort to a desperate trick play in order to setup that late 3rd quarter go ahead touchdown.

Yes, but if you took that $1.50 and made a wager with Pat that McCallie would beat Red Bank, then he would most certainly be buying you 2 sodas early in the 3rd quarter.

I know you personally saw our pass defense against Baylor ... and it was bad. That's probably the only team that's tried to pass much against CCS this year. But with rain in the forecast, I'm hoping that will slow down the Grace passing attack. CCS will have to score more than 7 points to get this win, which is all they scored against Webb & ND.

That sounds like great idea! But, you probably don't need to get more linemen hurt right before the playoffs. You're already missing a quarterback. By the way, I love the small font in your post. Nothing says I'm a "Booger Minion" better than a copy/paste from the Grand Poobah of Nose Dung himself.

You know ... every now and then, you accidentally stumble onto the truth ... except for the morman part. Not that there is anything against being a morman ... I'd probably rather be morman than catholic. But if your boys can't handle a defensive lineman going low, you need to get them some panties. If you ever match up with Webb again, that is ALL they are going to do with ND. You guys don't have to make excuses for not being able to "name the score" ... Just take the win and TRY to show an ounce of class.

Again with a lie ... 55 returned to the game and played in the 4th qtr. I'm not sure about 53, but I certainly wouldn't take your word for it.

You've got a good team! Why do you have to get on here and lie? Nobody from CCS "played dirty". Notre Dame was the team who got all of the personal foul calls and you know it!!

Both of your lineman got hurt playing defense ... stop the BS

I don't believe ND is good enough to "name the score". I wonder if they were naming 8-7 at the end of 1Q against Silverdale. I hope to see 17 out there tonight for ND. I hate for kids to miss high school games because of injury. Looking forward to a great evening of football on the CCS campus. Don't forget your $5 for parking. Tonight's take is going towards our basketball program.
