Rebel Nation

Well, once again gentlemen.....IT'S ON!! Let the talk end and the fun begin. This is gonna be the best Maryville/Alcoa game in a long, long time. Both teams are stacked with talent and ready for war. This might possibly be the battle of who has the best offensive line. Lots of scoring early and often in this one boys. Too bad for Alcoa that the scoring for them will end towards the middle or end of the 3rd qurater, as usual. I don't mean disrespect with that boys; it's just a fact that history bears. This is where the BS ends and the battle begins. GOOO RED REBELS!!!

I've been following them since I was 6 or 7 and that was 27 years ago. My Dad has been following them since before Coach Story. Someone else said it right before. Maryville is a rich, storied football program, not just a team. As a matter of fact, there's plenty of other team's fans there on most Fridays.

Riverdale might do it once or twice. No one beats Maryville for very long. I'll confess I don't know much about Riverdale, but I know a lil about Maryville. The Rebels are giant killers.

It doesn't take much to get up for this game. Whipping is a strong word this year, but Maryville should win by a couple. It'll be tigher thru the 1st 3 quarters than we want. Rebels will prevail though.

Was that the game where the AE and Maryville coaches got in a fight at the end of the game?

Heartbreaking losses....ask Hillsboro, Morristown West and Knoxville Central who Maryville is....chances are they remember.

Rebelron is right. I have seen almost every Maryville-Alcoa game since I was in middle school in Maryville in the early eightys. Alcoa always plays emotionally, they always come with their A game, but their never as balanced as The Rebels, always have too many kids playing both ways and if you get on top of them by a large margin, they tend to loose interest, like last year. That takes nothing away from Alcoa. I grew up a Rebel, so I naturally have a distaste for Alcoa, but I RESPECT them and their game. This game will be as close as they've come in years to beating Maryville, but it won't be ebough. Maryville 35 Alcoa 21
