I wish I could get excited about this....but right now I just can't. I remember alot of us privately feeling betrayed that one of our own left us 5 years ago. It has been clear that BA fans have not been happy with Coach Potter for some time. I just don't like the way he is saying things in the paper. It is like back handed compliments to BA? I hope he stops that part for sure. I hope I am wrong...but my gut feeling is I wish Bubba had stayed with it another year.

Baylor lead Ensworth the entire championship game last year until the last seconds. They also beat them soundly this year. I think it will be a very close game but the team on the river seems to play Ensworth very well. Baylor 24 Ensworth 21.

I have been open minded to this topic for a few years now. At first I did not like the idea of having the game on campus. Until I have attended two games at Baylor now and a couple back at Finley....I just became a believer. Sorry, but I would gladly give up letting "anyone" that wants to come to the game to let our students and players experience what the Baylor students have. Just my opinion for sure. As for the traffice....wow, wouldn't any other school give anything to have that kind of a problem. There is intense interest in this game so that is just a part of it I guess. Anyway, not meaning to argue with you....but after seeing all of the excitement at Baylor I just know Finley just doesn't compare. Like you said....Peace!

As a McCallie alum there is never any doubt who I will cheer for. But one thing I learned in school was to have an open mind. I don't believe that just because you take a different stance from someone like yourself in anyway should question your support. Are you an alum also?

Sorry but I don't buy that. It has not been that many years since it was at McCallie. Finley is a sterile environment for what should be the most exciting game in town. And that is what it is when it is at Baylor. Our goal should not being committed to letting everyone go. We are fooling ourselves on this. Our students and fans would like nothing better than to have it at McCallie....not a half empty stadium. I say congratulations to Baylor for moving it to their campus and letting their students, fans, alumni have an outstanding experience. Next year I will cheer for McCallie in a half filled stadium that no way compares to the excitement put on at Baylor.

Wish I could come to the game. McCallie rebounds and wins by 7.

Ok first I want to say congrats to Baylor. The first half of the game they played as good as any team I have seen. Yes I will say it...their mistakes helped us make a game of it and I was proud of the way we fought back. But Baylor is very good. Now bluemom I really hesitate to say anything because you are a proud McCallie supporter and have alot of passion for the blue. But it just seems you can never say anything good without adding some kind of insult. Why not say something nice without a jab? Wow, yes their was alot of traffic and it can be a pain. But we all knew it would be and we plan accordingly. I agree with oldwiseone. I really wish that McCallie would return the game to campus. I don't care if everyone gets to come or not....it would be so much more special. The game at Baylor was just tremendous....traffic and all. Finley no way no how....can compare. Just don't see how that can be argued. Anyway bluemom I like your passion. But maybe sometime a congrats without complaining would be nice. For what it's worth.

I agree. It is the best setting I have ever seen. And that is hard to admit for a Tornado fan. Hands down better than Finley Stadium no doubt. Baylor just seems loaded this year. But McCallie has surprised some folks for sure. It would take a near perfect game for McCallie to stop Baylor.....but it can be done.

Sorry but you sound like a girl. Sensitive...just alittle bit? No need to pick apart everything someone says. Otherwise that is all that would ever go on here.

Oh well. Now on to the game that matters most.....McCallie vs Baylor....nothing else like it!

The Blue Tornado takes on MBA tonight. Wow, I guess it shows that McCallie is having an off year....no one has even started a thread about this game. So here it goes. The big blue is going to rebound tonight and pull off the upset over MBA! I know you think I have my blue tinted glasses on...but I really think it will happen. Now if I can just find a decent way to watch or listen to the game. Audio has been terrible. Go Blue!

I'm pulling for you Father Ryan. Then I hope we (McCallie) get a rematch with the Purple Irish....with a different outcome. Father Ryan 24 Baylor 17

McCallie gets the victory that we so badly want over Potter this Friday night. Trust me, we had rather beat Baylor but since we didn't....we will beat Potter. Blue 24 BA 14

Bluemom and oldwiseone....you have been pretty quiet since our loss to Baylor. I say we beat BGA by a couple of touchdowns....what do you think.

Coach Potter does not want to lose to a Baylor team....and don't think he will. This is a very good Baylor sqad but I think the home team BA will win. BA 31 Baylor 21
