From what I've seen the past few weeks, the Bradley D line better improve their play a lot. Otherwise, the Cleveland, Farragut and Bearden games are gonna be clock-eating possessions for those teams to keep the ball out of the hands of Bradley's offense. I hope I'm wrong, but personally I don't see them winning at least two of those games and maybe all three.

Bad night all around for Fooseball

Why wrestle the top bracket? I know upsets happen, but that pretty much is a cakewalk for Cleveland (that said, they would have been the favorites no matter who was in that bracket). Gonna be a battle on the bottom bracket.

BCHS.TV or BCHS Bear Network

They stream the games on the BCHS channel on YouTube.

Congrats on the win. But don't you worry, it's still gonna say you got an L to Bradley this year no matter how bad Maryville abuses them later.

With the Cleveland City Schools shutting down for the rest of the week, can this game be played?

So, in reading that article, it appeared to say that only 8 teams would make the Division I Class AAA duals championships this year. If this has been discussed before, I apologize, as it was the first I've seen of it. That would mean only the top team from each region would go to state? Would suck for certain regions, that's for sure (however, every one is wrestling for second place, so does it really matter?).

i have heard rumors of that as well. Someone with knowledge of the Cleveland program would have to confirm it though.

Any live stream of this game tonight? I thought I remember Maryville puts their games on through NHFS, which I refuse to get.. and it's reliable, so I'm told, about 50% of the time.

Not sure that would be considered an upset. I guess if you look at it like Bradley is ranked ahead of McMinn, but that is probably only a consequence of when they lost last. I think McMinn will hit a few long plays that may win them the game. Bradley's DB's have not been stellar all year, but have improved, as has the defense, of late. We'll see, should be a good game for sure.

Alright, fooseball95, I'll bite. You forget about the team across town as a normal top team? BCHS is certainly one of the top teams in the state, year in and year out. And the other teams you mentioned as well. I'll admit though, Cleveland is primed and should win another two titles this year. Everyone else is going for second. Did Cleveland get a transfer that attended Blair Academy?

Soddy will be glad to be getting out of the Bradley County region. They were a very good team many years but were the third wheel in that region and didn't get to go to state. Knoxville area wrestling just got a lot more interesting with Halls dropping down to A-AA.

Saw the whole thing on bchs.tv on YouTube. I'm sure it has the game in the archive if you really want to watch it again. So it wasn't the Bradley guy with the camera. I think Bradley went about trying to beat Maryville the right way in running the ball and eating the clock. McMinn should take that game plan, and with their much better rushing game, should be able to keep the Maryville game at least close or win. That said, it doesn't matter if you lose by 4 or you lose by 40, you still lose. You don't beat Maryville by kicking FG's. Therein lies my gripe with the scoring opportunities last night for the Bears.

I agree with most of what you said, however, I have found that most HS games played in rain just become a big "slip n slide" sloppy affair with multiple turnovers. It also wrecks the field (well, grass fields, for those public schools who aren't lucky enough to play in Knoxville or at Cleveland High School) for future games the rest of the year. I do think the crowd from Maryville would be bigger if it was on Friday.

Also known as "Let's hear how much the Cleveland radio announcer can cry" day. Especially if Bradley wins. Always excuses after excuses from the one in particular.

Bump, please keep in mind that McGavock won 18 points against JV wrestlers for Bradley. Not saying Wilson Central doesn't have a chance, because they most certainly do have a very good chance of winning. Just saying comparing scores for different duals can be deceiving. Maybe Wilson Central used several JV's as well in their matches, I don't know. We'll find out who is better this afternoon.

I did not intend to cause a ruckus when I asked the question. I just thought maybe Phillips had taken back over as head coach. The raiders will do very well with either of them. And, Coach Smith is doing a great job of bringing the Bears along and I'm sure in the near future this rivalry will again be very very competitive.

Congrats to the raiders. They have a deep and talented team. Just a question, who is their coach? I thought it was Jake Yost, but I swear Eric Phillips was doing all the coaching the other night. He's a very good coach, I just didn't know if he has taken back over or not.

Yeah, I guess 2.5 points is a real buttkicking, huh, Kneetap? Especially when you got 4 points given to you by the Ravenwood wrestler not making weight on the final day. Some buttkicking!!! I believe a buttkicking would be a final score of say, 39-15 in a dual meet?? That said, as much as it pains me to say it, congrats to the blue raiders, they wrestled really well, especially in the consolation rounds.

These two boys are cutting a huge amount of weight and I believe their bodies need a little fuel. I believe BCB has hit the nail on the head on this one. Would love to see a rematch of the Soddy Inv match between #1 & #2 again. Was a great match, one of the best in the tournament. Hope it turns out the same, no offense, BCB, I know you'd like just the opposite. Both seem pretty good to me.
