  2. State Dual Predictions

    Good to know, I don’t care anything about the mid-state so I didn’t look it up to see what county they belong in. Either way the mid state has caught up and been wrestling very well, just wished my Soddy boys would get back there. Kind of sucks to see 2 schools 4 miles apart be so dang dominant of TN wrestling since the 90’s first with Bradley and now back to Cleveland. 

    Next season may be one of the very best seasons in wrestling that Tennessee has had in quite sometime. Wilson could finally be the one to knock our region off. Of course I'm sure Cleveland is loaded behind this senior class and will have something to say about that as well. It's finally good to see another region stepping up.

    No actually my son acted just fine. The only thing he was mad about was the ref calling the injury ff when he wanted to continue the match.  If you've noticed I said my peace and moved on. We are looking ahead to the 20th.

    Good luck to Jackson. Hope he gets healthy and rebounds.

    The best JV game I have ever seen was when Cleveland came to Oak Ridge in the 1990s loaded with studs all over the field. Don't recall who won but the Wildcats made a game of it. An OR vs Cleveland series who be very competitive.

    They definitely produced two or three of the best teams that ever played in this state. Between them and the Riverdale teams. Darn good teams back then.

    Gonna be biased a lot on this one. Really think Bradley has the nicest Stadium. Especially in East Tennessee. One of the biggest as well. Probably needs to be remodeled a little. The hill more so. DB is a close second. Just wished the baseball field wasn't built into the football field.

    Wrestling most definitely yes, football not likely. Name another state or national rivalry that has as many state titles for both schools as far back as the 70's and has been played more times than Maryville-Alcoa. We hold the national record for most consecutive years played as well....

    Rivalry isn't bout just state champions playing each other every year. Pretty sure Bradley and Mcminn has played 103-4 times and Maryville and Alcoa 91 I think? The best thing they could have done was to ban bradley and Cleveland from playing. The rival just didn't start up on Friday before the game. It started the Sunday before that was called "Bradley Cleveland week". It was so bad throughout town the whole week. There were fights after fights. Painting our bear blue, painting their field black and gold, burning fields and such. More cops out in town, swat and cops at the game than Maryville and Alcoa sees each season at theirs. Of course it has called down to be just a good crosstown rival, (which is a good thing) but back then, it was the most hatred, brutal and best rivalry in the state of Tennessee. Just wished it never got out of hand like it did.  2nd was Marion and South Pitt. Ot was also brutal. 

     

    PS: shouldn't even have been called a rivalry anyway due to the fact that Cleveland smacked us around every year. Never seen teams like that.

    Mcminn co vs bradley central/County. Been going on  since the times of  great grandparents (i was born in the 90s) think the first game was played in either 1905 or 1916 for some reason both years sound right 

    Second oldest and longest "rivalry" game in Tennessee. Can't remember if it's behind the Baylor/mccallie game or Marion County.

    Why is the sullivan county health department involved in mcminn county athletes anyway? If there was a problem in mcminn county they wouldntve wasted money on the 3 hour trip. Sounds like to me that tssaa is bias toward maryville knowing that the cherokees or indians would beat msryville and if maryville dont win state they don't get paid...why not let them play Monday night. Who hired these guys?

    Neither team comes close to beating Maryville.

    Sad thing is that Burke is completely medically cleared to play. But his future college coaches asked him not to. That's sad actually. 

    I knew this, but wasn't gonna say anything. It's the young mans choice. Either way, hope he succeeds, but would have loved to have seen him play his senior year.

    Is Bradley offense as good as advertised?  If so, can McMinns D put them in check?  For me, this is the biggest question.  I know McMinn used several players both ways against Maryville, and I thought they did a great job defensively on Friday.  McMinn has a strong defensive front.  I have watched McMinn quite a bit this year, but have not seen Bradley.  Any thoughts would be appreciated.  

    It is as advertised, but without Burke behind center, it isn't as like it should be. On the other hand, Burkes brother and the WR are very good. I'm looking forward to see if Mcminn can stop Burke as well. Bradley can score quick at times.

    Question for Bradley fans - this game is a big rivalry game for McMinn and regardless of how good either team is, we always circle this one on the calendar.  Is it the same way for Bradley?  I think I may have heard before that the rivalry in this one isn't as big a deal for Bradley as it is for McMinn.  Wasn't sure if there's any truth in that - thought I'd ask.

    With Cleveland and Walker Valley being around, the Mcminn game kinda gets pushed off to the side. We do care that it's like the 2nd or 3rd longest "rivalry" that has been played. That's bout it. Some strange reason, our coaches circles the "Maryville" game on the calendar for us :?

    I think  you guys win if you play  a round 2  I just see those as  being better  match ups  and I said that because  I feel like they have mcminns number In football  too 

    We thought that last year too and got manhandled lol. Don't think the kids ever stepped off the bus last year in the playoff game.

    Home field will be huge in this one. Officiating is so bad in Athens and at Bradley that whoever is away is in the hole 10 pts at the start of the game lol

    Bradley gets hosed more than anybody at home. Especially during the playoffs. Where ya been hiding at this season? Glad to see the clevelanders making a come back on the T.
