Thanks for bringing some measure of reality to all of this. Personal opinion is one thing... reality is another! Facts: Randall Cobb - Alcoa - East Offensive MVP Brian Marshall - Ooltewah - 7 carries for 92 yards. Andre Sterling - Farragut - 9 carries for 26 yards.

Where did you get that info from? Randall Cobb from Alcoa was the East Offensive MVP. Marshall from Ooltewah had 7 carries for 92 yards and Sterling from Farragut had 9 carries for 26 yards.

And of course no one has ever been falsely accused in Georgia..... /blush.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":blush:" border="0" alt="blush.gif" />

Don't worry Bip... just some folks who think they have the inside scoop, but unfortunately only have part of a story mixed with speculations and rumors... but I guess that's pretty much the standard in our society today. GO OWLS!

What Andre has is a great offensive line and a great instinct to take advantage of that. Please don't start the mud slinging. We've seen enough of that this year. Ooltewah's defense won't need to "shoot up"... just play hard and have fun... as young men should do!

Great pic Rig... but you haven't seen "firepower" yet! I hope everyone stays focused on Marshall..!

You're right... Ooltewah is much better than the team you saw! As for Farragut... We'll see.

High School is very special. I'm sure that Coach will give everyone of these young men the opportunity to create life long memories.

Run them more... I agree. "15-17 players all game"... No Way. I know of several that haven't gone past the 3rd quarter mark. Forget the "luck"... Great Coaching!!

Great! Keep looking ahead to that one... /rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rolleyes:" border="0" alt="rolleyes.gif" />

Great Support... Great Advice! The first step to winning is to believe that you are a winner... you will then do the things that cause you to win. 'Stand By Your Team'!

Why is it that if someone uses inappropriate language they are cut off immediately. but I can't get a response to this?: "The upload failed. Please contact a board administrator."

You're right!... College football is teaching us that!!!

I know that Ooltewah has other prospects, in addition to Marshall (McReynolds for one), just wondered if it had anything to do with the reporting of stats and who reports them? Ooltewah has had some great athletes over the years... but nobody seems to know about them state or national wise. Mostly what we hear about is the amazing exploits of players in other programs. Any idea of the players from Ooltewah that have been picked by a D1 school in the last 10 years? /dry.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="

How about Benford & Simms from Red Bank... are they listed?

Interesting question. What are his stat's this year? Is he profiled the same as other RBs?

I don't believe William Blount can overcome another loss... they've got to win. Oak Ridge may be feeling a little more confident!

What are they getting away with?

Game Day and counting down. Give it your best OWLS, and if that's not good enough..... what am I saying???.... your best is always good enough! /rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rolleyes:" border="0" alt="rolleyes.gif" /> ROLL ON BIG RED!

Looks like we finally disagree my friend... McMinn will take Oak Ridge... 21 - 14.

We are completely "onboard" with him and the OWLS!

Ignorance is incredibly persistant. This is not a team of a "few good guys"... this is a team of great teenagers who don't need the ridicule of mean hearted, mean spirited individuals like yourself. Is your life that miserable? Get all the facts before before you condemn... have a mind of your own instead of being lead by popular belief. To the young Americans reading this: Adults often make mistakes too...

I know many are hoping for a "big statement" game, but I think this will a modest OWL victory. Bradley will not be overlooked, but neither is there anything to gain by blowing up the score... (we'll save that for Farragut and the re-match with William Blount). It time now to focus on the basics and team building.

Shame on you... a poor loser AND a slanderer. /ph34r.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":ph34r:" border="0" alt="ph34r.gif" />

The one thing that stood out in this clip was our "home" TV station highlighting the plays of the visiting team. Nothing about the outstanding effort made by our guys. That shows just how much of an advantage Ooltewah gets from "homecooking". /dry.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="
