Very excited the alma mater finally made it to the big game. Couldn't be happier for the community, Coach Henry, my cousin #55, and all the other Jackets. That being said, UC is FAST and TOUGH. I fear a mercy rule game. I'll say 48-8 UC final, but I could care less about the final score. Just to make it here is awesome.

Greene outgained Bible 93-66. Harriman D held CF to 200 yds. Total offense. Both fans were mad at the refs afterwards. All in all? Hard fought game. Last time these 2 played was a 42-41 shootout that came down to the final play. This game was the complete opposite. Hate to see either team lose. Both squads gave their all.

Langley got screwed in that deal. The new staff at the MoCo News does NOT care about the people of MoCo. I know for a fact they could have gotten an in-county hire... and didn't even interview him. Personally, I hope Brian blows the MoCo News out of the water.

Key to the game for the Devils will be stopping Drake Long, or at least holding him under a hundred yards. If the Devils do that, they have a real chance to steal one. This is a game where you throw all assumptions out the window and it comes down to who has the most heart. Expect this to be a smash-mouth, knock-down, drag-out game. Prediction Rockwood, 28 - Harriman, 20

Oneida, 49 - Wartburg Central, 0 This is a very good Indians squad... against a comically bad Bulldog squad.

I think Meigs could potentially get a few more wins than last year, but I think a playoff run is still a year or two away. As for Tellico Plains, I think they are gonna be in a bit of second-year slump under Mullinax. Right now I have them and Midway as borderline playoff teams. TP could surprise people again, though. I sure didn't expect them to make the post-season last year. Greenback should still be pretty solid, and the only team in the district that I know would beat them is Grace. Rockwood COULD go either way against the 'Kees. For the record, I always love driving to Greenback to cover football. Great people there and a beautiful drive down 95.

Rockwood will lose to Grace and Greenback. Harriman will lose to Rockwood, Grace, Greenback, and Sunbright.

Rockwood should go 8-2. Harriman should be a playoff contender. 6-4 is my guess.

Union City is gonna be the team to beat once again. As for Coalfield I think they are a top ten team but not in the top five. A small line and a freshman QB will be hard to overcome.

How in the world does Christina Neal from Kingston NOT get on an All-State team?

Can someone associated with the Midway Holiday Classic tell me the schedule for the tournament and what dates & times Midway plays on? I'm covering it for the local paper and don't have really any contact info for anybody associated with Midway as usually I seldom ever get sent there. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I'm not 100% sure on that. Don't hold me to it, but I think the sitting out a year without changing addresses rules only applies if you played sports the previous year.

One of the parents on the team told me they had a transfer student from Lenoir City and I was just curious as to whether she could just give them some depth because the Lady Jackets could use some depth since they lost 4 seniors (All of which started or had decent playing time). No need to be condescending. I highly doubt she's the answer to Kingston's prayers, but it would be nice to know if she can give Kingston some depth, which probably is their biggest issue this year.

I heard from a reliable source Kingston got a transfer student from LC this year... can someone give me some info here?

Anybody heard anything on Midway at all?
