alcoa will be good next year i will agree, but after that were will they be? no where near as good as they have been. these schedules are for two years at a time. since alcoa will be good next year is not the reason why these teams dropped alcoa. explain to me other than rivalry how this game has any meaning for either county school. everybody at the county schools show up when they play each other and maryville not so much for alcoa. most teams that enjoy success enjoy larger gates so why not play beatable 5A teams and build some confidence.
