I see you were listening to Clay's coach run his mouth last week about 6 seniors on the roster that wasn't last on it last year.   He was mistaken.  Most new players on the roster are Freshman.  Team69 broke it down for you along with TBG.  Juste keeping it real.

6 seniors that weren’t on roster last year? I noticed 3. One was a coaches son. One didn’t play vs Clay and one played 1 1/2 quarters. Where was he running his mouth about it?

Seen some of Gordonsville this year, but not much of SP. Gordy has some good athletes and a big line. Does SP have enough up front to match Gordonsville. Athletes will probably be equal, unless SP added some firepower after that loss last year.

We better have enough to match them. If we don’t.. to steal a line from one of our fallen brothers.  We will lose and our season will be over

Dang I for sure wasn't trying to start a fight lol, I don't know that region 2 A is necessarily down ,but south pitt is like alcoa move up lol, I mean a 1A school with 76 players, that come from all over 3 states and surrounding counties...should win. 

You should speak facts. SP only has around 45 players. 3 states? I’m aware of one kid from Georgia but none from Alabama. Most of those kids in Alabama drive right by SP now to a school north of us. The best player on Jasper’s team lives in SP. His daddy was a legend here. I wish he would have followed in his dad’s footsteps. 
 

Why would SP move up? We average 1 title about every 10 years.

Looks like it might be a rainy Friday night. 

It doesn’t appear to be a lot of rain so I would think it won’t impact the game much.

I was wrong on Clay. Gordonsville is a lot better though.

They always are. That program at Gordonsville has decades of success. They are always a good team.

I seen their fans saying that crap on Facebook where they posted the score. I just dislike any talk like that because your coach or players didn’t throw flags and mark a ball for them so that victim mentality is just one I just never liked about going to Memphis. There has been talks of them disbanding from the tssaa branch, I say go ahead 

Good…bye…

Jasper had a great season. They should be proud of the progress. One year after not making the playoffs they won the region and a playoff game.  I didn’t suspect it would end in the second round with the amount of talent they had this year.  Sounds like East Robertson had more talent but specifically one kid that was just phenomenal that made the difference. 

Good win last night by the home team. It was worse than I suspected it would be. They better move on quickly. Gordonsville always has a team that can end our season.

Playing at Gordonsville is usually an uphill battle for any team in the playoffs. If Whitwell can open the playbook a little more I think they could pull the upset 

How do you know they haven’t already opened it? Some teams just keep it simple and it’s a good formula.

Round 2 at the PITT

Clay will have their moments but the Pirates will control the game. I fully expect to hear the cannon firing all night long.

 

Pirates 56

Dawgs 13

I would be surprised if we saw 69 points scored tonight.  

Greenback with the “upset” but not really an upset.

Which tigers? Red or blue?

Whitwell isn’t coming to Gordonsville and winning. Prep didn’t know any better. Whitwell has nightmares from past experiences. Gordonsville wins by multiple scores.

Ain’t no way. We scored 42 on Clay and we are pretty bad up front

Counting how many OTs?

Weather might play a factor. Pirates by 20

Looks like it could be a sloppy field with the rain. Who does that favor?

I’ve never seen a sloppy field in Jasper. It always looks great.

Yep, that pretty much sums up the east!  Against South Pitt none of us peons realistically have a chance unless it's an act of God! 

I’m not sure he meant it that way. Everyone has a chance each Friday night. 

It’s truly sad the way people think they can do the man‘s job better than he can and call him stupid and an idiot. I feel bad for the guy. I know I know.. y’all will say.. I don’t understand.. and maybe I don’t.. but he went and beat the #1 seed last Friday.

Im pretty sure thats what someone said his stats were.  I think if we could hold him down that we would have a good shot. Got a reciever that's very good as well.

How did they get held down so many times this season?  Maybe they are turnover prone. 

5 minutes ago, TheTruthPrevails said:

He holds offers from ky and mizzou and he is a Jr.  2500 yards and is very physical.  I worry about us being able to tackle him and also if our linebackers can catch him.

Negative.  Pickett isn't as fast as you think.  He has been ran down a bunch this year.  He is quick though

2500 yards rushing through 11 games?  Is it a one man show?

Mercy rule by halftime.

Groves is a top 3 running back in all classifications

If this is correct you should never lose a game in 2A football.

IF!!! South Pittsburg can play a clean Game ( less than 5 Penalties, if not a mercy rule by midway through 3rd by the beginning of the 4th for sure. If Clay can’t get the BIG plays they will be shut out. South Pittsburg is just way to fast on Defense.  
 

South Pittsburg 42-45

Clay County 0-7

Anyone know how many penalties we had Friday? Clay County has been in every game this year it appears. I’d think they were too good to have that done to them. 

I’d be surprised if that many points were scored in this game.  I like the Pirates something along the lines of 35-14.

They'll definite get better. As for classification, I was talking to one of their staff earlier in the year when we played them, they seem to believe they will stay 1A.

I asked the question to a coach several weeks ago and I was told that if they stayed an all male school then they would be using the multiplier rule. Maybe it’s not correct info but that’s what I was told.

Careful what you wish for!!! I learned a long time ago not to poke a Hornets nest with a Stick! I remember back in 07 I believe when Joe Bryns fans talked like that before the state Championship Game and South Pittsburg Mercy ruled them in the Championship!  I can promise you no Team in the State has 20 Players with the Athletics Spitt has. Just saying

I don’t think any team in 1A will give SP “a beating” this season. However several out there are likely just as good and could win the game.

You would be correct.
