I don't know if anyone will jump Motown this season till the playoffs and if another Maryville game is looming my fat butt may have to make a trip across the hill to watch. Motown by 21

Swain was just too young to hang with ya'll this season, but with that said ya'll looked like you are ready to make some big noise in East Tennessee this season. Numbers 44, 90, 40, 5, 6 all seemed to control their game and ours. And then their is that LINE!!!! Man oh man yeah I see this bunch going far. Great defense and way too much speed for our Devils this year. Best of luck and kick some arse for those of us in WNC.

Just checking in to see who is coming over this year. And can ya'll tell me what type of team ya'll have this season. Many D1 prospects this year, are ya'll going to take a deep run in the playoffs again..... you know that kinda stuff. Swain is young but we'll play anyone put in front of us. Well for those coming over drive safe and have fun.

Bump to the top.

BTT I'd like to see Swain play another game this year so if any 1A/2A or 3A East Tennessee teams that need to pick up a game this year on the 9th or 30th call Swain County High School. Swain is a 1A Western North Carolina team on the other side of the Great Smoky Mountains. Come on folks does anyone need a game????

Guys..... How did the scoring go last night? You know 7-0 first quarter 21-7 at the half.... that kinda thing.

Could someone give a scoring recap of the game? Yes, I really do care too.

Hmmmm Like I kinda state with the topic, and 1A or 2A schools in East Tennessee that may have an open date on the 9th or 30th contact Swain County High School.

If anyone needs a game Swain County is stuck with two open dates, one on Sept. 9th and the other on Sept. 30th! Swain really needs another football game and if someone could contact Swain County High I'm sure a game could be held.

The Smokey Mountain Conference, SMC, is in the southwestern Mountains of North Carolina and I know a few of the schools would love to schedule up some games with teams from East Tennessee. No this isn't a topic of who is the best but one of one fan wanting to see some good small school football! The SMC has seven members, Robbinsville 12 NCHSAA 1A State titles, Swain County 6 1A and 1 2a state titles, Murphy 5 1A state titles and one 2A title and four other schools that can knock the fool out of ya some times, Cherokee, Hayesville, Rosman and Andrews. Swain has for three games play against 4A Morristown West with one big upset last season, seems Swain can keep it close till half time then the depth and size of Motown wears Swain down. I’d like to see how the Devils, (Swain) would do with teams more there own size in Tennessee. Plus it’s only a couple of hours of travel time and not many football teams over here want to line up with the Devils year in and year out. ; ) Murphy just played 2A Marion; check the spelling on that one for me, and won last night which isn’t a bad thing for the Dawgs of Murphy are loaded this season just as Swain was last year! I’m just wanting to see some good ole hard nosed football with schools about the same size. Any positive input would be great, trash talk…. Not needed. What say yea?

Motown used it's depth and speed to finish off a scrappy 1A Swain County Maroon Devil football team Friday night 38 to 14. Nothing but class from the Morristown Coaching staff for once everyone saw the game becoming out of control the coaches agreed to only have a 6 minute fourth quarter and rather than punching an unneeded score at the end Motown sat on the ball and let the time expire. For that I wish to give my utmost thanks. Now from the beginning of this game nobody from Swain knew what to expect from the Devils this season. Our scrimmage game last week started off great only to see Swain make several “Young” miscues to a solid 3A program over here in North Carolina. Motown used it’s power game and some timely passes to move the ball 80 yards to score and eat up over 7 minutes on the clock. Swain’s first drive ended with a couple of first downs and another punt, however with the Devils picking up a couple of first downs started giving the Devils more promise that better things where around the corner. Well Motown moved the ball on their first and second downs but then a good play by a Swain defender stole a short pass and Swain was in business inside the Motown forty. Swain took full advantage of this and finally put 7 on the board! Motown not to be out done early in the second quarter hit a fairly long pass and that play with the help a some great offensive linemen blocking opened up the way for the Trojans to take a 14-7 lead. Swain wasn’t yet done and actually moved the ball with some great play calling, which ended up with a TD on a power sweep tying the game at 14. As luck would have if Motown could have put 7 more on the boards right before the half but a dropped pass in the End zone lead to a three point lead as Motown kicked the go ahead field goal to end the half with the score at Motown 17 Swain 14. After the half Motown just wore down Swain’s depth by putting 14 quick points on the board making the score 31 to 14, the last Motown score came on a forty yard fumble recovery and run. Ouch! Swain isn’t as bad the score showed but aren’t quite ready for the depth of talent the Trojans have. My what a difference a season can make for Swain lost 19 seniors off last seasons State Championship team and that depth was missed tonight. Again good game and the best of luck to the Trojans for the rest of the Season.

Thanks folks and I wish ya'll the very best this season. Just not in this opener...LOL

Could someone post how to make it to Motown coming off of I40 West? Feel free to tell us where a good place to eat is at and how to make it to the football field. Swain should bring several hundred to a thousand fans, we love our football over here too.

Swain pull out a huge win last season over Motown can the Devils do it again??? Don't know for sure but I know I'm making another road trip on the 19th to watch the game. Any info on Motown this season? I know Swain will line up and give their all again but the Devils lost 19 players from last seasons squad. Help out Motown fans, I gotts to have some info on the game. It's been another year and it's FOOTBALL TIME AGAIN.

Swain County won the 1A state title Saturday by a 16-14 score! Just thought I'd drop this by ya'll.
