  1. You raise good points sir, and I don't disagree with your logic. Yes Smyrna almost pulled the upset on LC last year. We had a good team but we weren't as deep in talent. Last year, if we lost Michael Edmiston or our tailback, we didn't have a suitable replacement. Riverdale could probably just plug another in and keep on going. I just believe this Riverdale team is on a mission this year. I wish all the luck in the world to the Bulldogs and hope that they can pull the upset, but again, they have to play a perfect game, and Riverdale has to have an off night
  2. This has been said before but I'll elaborate on it again. With the exception of last nights playoffs, the big fenced in section of middle seats on the home side of LC Stadium are reserved seats. Half the time, those people don't show up for the games even when we have a good team. As many of you have found out when coming to the PIT, a majority of LC Fans sit on the visitor side from at least the 50 yd line back towards the scoreboard. Now if those people sat on the home side, it would be filled for every game. I was in one of the first classes to attend LC High in 1980 when the new school opened under consolidation. We started the tradition of sitting on the visitor side in protest of the reserved seats believing that the school reserved too many not leaving many for the students. So, when you come to a game in the PIT, that is why it looks so bare on the home side. Now last night I will agree that there weren't as many LC Fans at the game even on the visitors’ side
  3. Sorry, I just can't see Smyrna winning this game. They may have improved, but don't have enough horses to match Riverdale. You did whip our LC Falcons last night but your no where near as good as last years Falcons that Riverdale beat in the second round, and Riverdale has improved tremendously since that game last year. I say Riverdale by at least 14 on an off night. Smyrna has to play a perfect game to win and that may not be enough to pull the upset
  4. I think Rdale not playing anyone to the wire will hurt them just like it did LC last year. 825419404[/snapback] I understand your logic but have to respectfully disagree with you region 4 fan. Lincoln County lost to the eventually state runner up. From what I saw tonight, I just can't see Smyrna proposing a problem for the Warriors. No disrespect to Smyrna, it is just my honest opinion
  5. Smyrna came in ready to play, which is more than I can say for our Falcons. They hung in there for the first half. The turnover bug bit the Falcons often in this game. They just couldn't get anything going. We were just out manned in this game. Smyrna was just the more experienced team bar none. Smyrna has 2 really good players, but I just don't think the bulldogs will have enough to slow down Riverdale. I haven't been around to see many high school football teams this year except for those that came to the pit and the ones that impressed me most were Riverdale and yes, Hazel Green Al. Riverdale would have to have an extremely off night and Smyrna would have to play a perfect game to pull the upset. With that being said, a perfect game may not even be enough. Good Luck to you Smyrna against Riverdale. Keep your heads up Falcons! This was a rebuilding year and you finished second in your region. You were just young this year. You don't have anything to be ashamed of thumb
  6. Looks like we had more tournovers than you did 4 -2. Also, the one touchdown LC scored that was called back was questionable. From my view, the ball had crossed the plain
  7. 825326760[/snapback] Yes, I would say so! A friend of mine from Franklin County and myself were talking about this one at work today, and thought the winner of this one would be in the driver's seat of this region. I'd say that Franklin County will be your biggest test. Our Lincoln County team is young this year, but you can't count them out.
  8. I'd have to say that pretty much sums it all up
  9. Contrats to the Rebels opening up at their brand spanking new stadium!!! If anyone deserved a new school, it was definitely you guys. I'm looking forward coming over to see your stadium when Lincoln County pays you a visit later in the year. We're a little down this year, but you know when these 2 teams get together, anything can happen.
  10. I watched it on Comcast. Both teams are very young. Lincoln County did better than I thought they would considering loosing so many starters. Josh Gregory dominated the first half with over 100 yds rushing, but was totally shut down the second half. LC QB Fraley is no Michael Edmiston, but I have to say, he played a great game, and did nothing to hurt his team until the last turnover. He threw the ball well, but didn't have the receivers to catch it at times. As for Franklin, your running back is a horse, and I'm sure the backup QB will be starting from now on. He came in the second half and changed the game. That kid played a whale of a game. Keep your heads up Falcons! You played a good game. Congrats to the Rebels for battling back and winning the game! It was a heck of a game!
  11. If the Falcons just make the playoffs as the 4th seed, it will be a good year for them. This is definitely a rebuilding year! Don't expect the magic from last year.
  12. Rickey Blake from Lincoln County back in the mid 80s just punished anyone who tried to tackle him!
  13. I'm sure you are saying that about LC because of the rich tradition we have in football, and that is very nice of you. We've lost a great deal of starters from last years team. Replacing Michael Edmiston is not easy to do at QB. I see the Falcons battling for the 4th place playoff position this year but never count them out.
  14. Now that my Falcons are out of the picture, and out of the 4 teams left, I look for Franklin to win it all. Not being bias because of the Lincoln County tie with Coach Johnson, but I think they are the most balanced team left in 5A. Riverdale may make it to the finals, but I don't think with just their running attack, will win the state. I think you have to be balanced with pass and run. If they fall behind to a team, they will have to try and do something they are not good at to catch up (pass) and that will haunt them! Good Luck Rebels!
  15. :justwrestle: GREAT SEASON FALCONS! CONGRATULATIONS TO YOU ALL! YOU GAVE IT YOUR ALL ON EACH AND EVERY DOWN. YOU WILL STILL GO DOWN AS ONE OF THE BETTER TEAMS THAT GRACED THE FIELD AT THE "PIT". MICHAEL EDMISTON AND LAMAR DIVENS MR FOOTBALL FOR CLASS 5A!
