I think AC will be fine. I am from Sweetwater and watched Downs Coach down here for a few years with NO talent, and he made a pretty decent team. I would think Anderson County will definently still have more than he did at Sweetwater and he did a great job down here. Beat McMinn Central a couple times and Polk Co a couple times. Something that hasn't been done since he left. Also, if anybody can hit Coach D's Fastball in ANDERSON COUNTY I'm impressed. Cause i heard he still has it. Heard he was still bringing it up around 90. So if he has any eligibility left I would pick them to win the whole darn thing!!! Good Luck Coach and all of AC from Sweetwater.

With Spring practice just around the corner, Sweetwater still has NO football coach in place. This was once the program of east tennessee....Now it's the laughing stock! Can the administration not handle the process of hiring a coach, or is no one interested? Please someone with knowledge feel me in PLEASE? Who is our coach gonna be, or are we getting a dad from the stands to run it?

After four seasons as the top Chief of the "ONCE" mighty Wildcats, Coach David Staff resigns as the head football coach from Sweetwater. In four seasons, Coach Staff had two good years and two bad ones. In both of his good years, he was beat in the 3rd round and then 1st round of the playoffs by Alcoa. I would like to say thank you coach for your hard work and dedication even though at some points it was tough. I wish you the best of luck whatever you decide to do. With that said, who does everyone think the new coach will be? Will the administration hire from within, or will they go out? As the new region goes into effect this year, I would like to see a coach come in a get the Sweetwater "Fire" back and get these kids fired up about Sweetwater Football. I personally would like to see Mike Martin come home, but I doubt he would.....What's everyone elses thoughts?

Here Kitty, Kitty, Kitty!!!!! Oh wait.........Here they come over the ridge back to SWEETWATER with ANOTHER WIN!!! 42-28. Ok Chief fans lets here it....Give all your excuses!!! You guys played good, Sweetwater had all they wanted, the referees cheated, etc., etc., etc., BUT YOU STILL LOST......AGAIN TO THE WILDCATS! Great Job guys. Were proud of ya! P.S. Tell Pocahontas we SAID HELLO!!!!

SID, Sorry for corrrecting me....So 2 wins in the last 12 years! Is that better? Either way, Sweetwater has had complete domination over Madisonville and Suckuoyah. As for the Alcoa comment, they are Gods gift to High School football. So yeah will say hi. But you besure to say hi when you loose to East Ridge, Howard, Meigs, Central, Polk, and pretty much your whole region..lol And for the poster who made the comment about here little kitty, kitty, kitty. Thats real funny. But even better.........If we're a kitty after the domination we've had over you, you people over the ridge will now be referred to as the Sequoyah Pocahontas'.

You people freakin kill me......You have won what 3 or 4 games the last 30 something years and every year you get on here and predict your gonna win!!! It's very awesome that you have faith in your team and all that, but come on....When does reality set in? Yeah it was close last year but YOU STILL LOST!!!! And I'm not going to say it's going to be a blow out, BUT Sweetwater still has the edge. If you guys could get a coach for more than one or two years that could develop some stability then I might agree with you. But until then wake up from never ever land and come back to reality!!!! GO CATS!!!! CLASS of 93

Congratulations Anderson County and Coach Downs. We sure do miss you at Sweetwater. Good Luck in the State AC.

I think this will be a great couple of games as well. I think the Chiefs are better coached, but I think Sweetwater has better baseball players. But it should still be fun to watch. Good luck to both teams today and tomorrow.

Score from tonight?

I like Bearden's arms, but Farragut is better all around. Gonna be fun to watch. Best of luck to both teams

I agree..... Haven't seen Sweetwater play, but Tellico is terrible. Don't start flaunting it after betting Tellico two games but getting drilled by Harriman, Loudon, and Polk in the preseason.

H o H O M H O M E R U N...... HOMERUN....GEEKS

Pitching looks good.

Ben Downs is the New Head Baseball Coach at AC. He came from Sweetwater High School. He was the Head Coach there for 3 years. Young coach with high energy and a lot of enthusiasm. Should be great for AC. He played at Tennessee Tech University from 99-03. Great Player and did good things at Sweetwater with very little talent.

Seen both teams play. Sweetwater looks really good this year. I was impressed. Sequoyah has lost a lot, but C. Berrong still leads a good charge. Should be a great game in the Water. Sweetwater 72- Sequoyah 55

Very good post 2A football man! I agree about Sweetwater fans being fair weather fans. They remind me of Tennessee fans. I am not a Tn fan because of this. But you know, i played RB for SHS in the past, and people complained when we were winning state championships and/or over 10 games a year. My suggestion is if you think you can do better, go get your degree, and get into coaching. Till then, cheer for the Sweetwater Team, Coaches, Cheerleaders, Band, etc. or keep your mouth SHUT!!!!

Sweetwater 35 Wartburg 14

The explanation was that there was an inadvertant (Spelling?) whistle. One of the refs blew a whistle while the ball was in the air on the kickoff. Half of the Sweetwater's team stopped! Sweetwater uses Knoxville association, so it had nothing with homefield cooking. Usually this association is terrible for Sweetwater at home!! Not taking anything away from Polk, but both teams played well. Polk has a great season ahead. Good luck in the region. This game meant nothing. Neither team could stop the other. Too much offense on both sides of the ball.

I also feel this will be a great game. Both teams have quality athletes. I think Sweetwater will win though 28-21 in a hard fought game. Good luck to both teams

Sweetwater in a close one...... 28-21

Yeah.....fly it on over here to the WATER but be careful, we don't have a landing strip. But one of our farmers would love for you to land it by the COWS!

A really great WEBSITE is SWEETWATER'S www.sweetwaterwildcatfever.com GO TO AND CHECK IT OUT!!! GREAT WORK BY PHILLIP MOORE!!!

Well, I'll predict Sweetwater by 4 touchdowns. Good luck to both teams though. I think the Wildcats will be tested early, but then pull away late!

You seen both games Friday night? Wow that's pretty impressive! Or MAYBE you are a player or coach from Rockwood and seen Sweetwater on tape? Hopefully not though....predicting you're gonna win! Either way, I know midway has some great players and not taking anything from them, but they don't have players like LATHAM, JOHNKINS, FERGUSON, and RICHESIN!!!!

Sweetwater has great tailgating experiences in the parking lot before the kickoff! Come and join the fun! Rockwood can't stop #2 Johnkins and #21 Latham. Too much speed in the backfield, and they can lock up man in the secondary and stop rockwoods recievers. Blow out early, then rockwood makes a game of it. Sweetwater 38, Rockwood 21
