Rockwood may be better but Cf has regressed toward the end of the season. Our lineman looked like they were on roller skates at times here in the last few games!
Hampton should have no problem with South Greene should they!? Hampton may just run the table. I don't think there is a clear cut favorite in the east in 2A
For teams that we play consistently, Greenback, Oneida, and Oz all have winning records against us. The bobcats never played us for a good stretch when they were 2A. We had some good teams during that stretch.
I think, they better be ready for a battle Thursday! Rockwood is 5-1 and they could win the region outright if Greenback upset Oz and then they beat us. In 2010, you would have thought we would have won but they came up to Rochelle and kicked our tails. Rockwood has just as much to play for as Coalfield does (along with a little help from the Cherokees).
Yeah, crazy how it worked out that way. And when they got that monkey off their back did they ever! They were dominant for a good, long stretch till here recently. It's been nice not having to go to Cloudland every year in the 2nd round.
That's a yes on Greenback and not so much on Cloudland. No disrespect but we have had a pretty good run against Cloudland. They beat us in the quarterfinals in 21 but I can't remember the last time we lost to them after that one. As far as region 3 and 4, it has been South Pitt beating us mostly. We haven't played Gordy/Clay that much due to South Pitt. To be honest Cf has been down the last 4 or 5 years when we've played Gordonsville during that time. The whole region has been down actually. I believe some of our best teams have actually been when we finished behind Greenback in the region. We both had some pretty good teams during that decade of Greenback dominance. I think that would've been our best shot at beating South Pitt if we could have advanced past the Cherokees. Gordonsville is pretty good but South Pitt is in a league of there own with Greenback on the verge of joining them in their supremacy (at least till some jealous bystanders sabotaged their program)!
