Gallatin Green Wave 38, Springfield Fightin' Timothy E. Mantlows 35 - 3 OTs

Springfield is a lock to make playoffs

Gallatin is not a lock and needs this more

gonna be a great game

However one cant forget that Page went to the last 5A Title Games (Both Losses), before that Page never made the Semifinals, but still that accounts for Something

In the Playoffs, I don't think Page gets as far as they did the last 2 seasons and I do think Centennial goes Further, at least to the Semifinals cuz 5A is alot tougher now

but yeah 29-28 Either way in a classic

Lebanon 35, Hendersonville 14

Lebanon is in a 4 way dogfight for the second spot in region 4 in 6A, they could be 2nd or could miss playoffs

In Class 5A I think Region 8 will sweep Region 7 in Round 1, Hendersonville is a goner in Round 1

Lebanon could win state or could miss playoffs in 6A

Lebanon wins 35-14

At this point the speculated pairings would be

R3 (1) Meigs vs R4 ( 4 ) Grundy Co.

R3 ( 2 ) McMinn Central vs R4 ( 3 ) Watertown

R4 ( 1 ) Giles Co. vs R3 ( 4 ) Brainerd

R4 ( 2 ) Sequatchie vs R3  ( 3 ) Tyner

Just a talking point folks. This could change if there were some upsets, but I think it may turn out this way. What have you?  Any upsets in the first round? The Central and Watertown game should be a good one I bet. 

 

Round 1

Grundy County over Meigs County

Watertown over McMinn Central (Thats gonna be the best game 5050 Tossup could go either way)

Brainerd over Giles County

Sequatchie County over Tyner

Round 2

Grundy County over Sequatchie County

Brainerd over Watertown

Quarterfinals

Brainerd over Grundy County

Semifinals

Brainerd over Region 1 #4 Seed

Finals/3A State Championship Gold Ball Game

Brainerd over Liberty Creek

2022 3rd round Lost to Alcoa 2021 2nd round Alcoa 2020 3 rd Alcoa that's best you can do in East 

Cuz Alcoa is scared to move up to 4A and Cheats all the time cuz they are scared of the 4A Playoffs School of Chicken****s

Oakland 35 Ravenwood 21

Riverdale started with the Mantle

The Mantle was passed from Riverdale to Maryville

The Mantle was passed from Maryville to now Oakland

In the Future Oakland will pass it to someone else

2A by a close Margin

Either of these Teams could finish as high as 2nd or could miss the playoffs entirely

Cookeville at Home 35-34

Cookeville, Green Hill, Gallatin and Lebanon are in a 4 team Race for Seeds 2, 3 and 4

Ultimately one of these 4 will miss out on the playoffs (but hopefully go to a bowl)

Green Hill beat Lebanon who beat Cookeville who beat Gallatin who beat Green Hill

Gonna be a competitive Fight to the Finish

Milan 28-21

1 Oakland

2 McCallie

3 Germantown

4 Bradley Central

5 Brentwood

6 Mount Juliet

7 Southwind

8 Elizabethton

9 Pearl Cohn

10 Greeneville

I wouldn’t be concerned about SG. Hampton going to bulldoze them.   

Here’s how I see R1 playing out.

1 seed Hampton and advances 

Happy Valley has to travel to West Greene for their regular season last game. Happy Valley in my opinion is the better team, but with this being at WG and their playoff hopes on the line or potentially knowing it could be their last game? I think WG will play like they have nothing to lose and win. However, I don’t see WG getting in. Why?  Because I think Eagleton beats Cumberland Gap and Eagleton beat WG head to head.  Therefore, Eagleton will be the 4th seed.

2 seed SG goes into basketball 

3 seed HV possible sleeper 

4 seed EA goes into basketball 

Hampton VS York in the semi at Hampton. Hampton advances to state.

I agree with Pujo on EA. They’ll probably be a contender next year or at least the following. Nice establishment they have.  If you build it, they will come. We’ll, it’s built 

1 Seed Hampton Loses to 4 Seed Polk County, Hampton goes into Basketball

2 Seed Happy Valley loses in Round 1, Happy Valley goes into Basketball

3 Seed South Greene advances to Round 2, but loses to 4 See Polk County, South Greene goes into Basketball

4 seed Eagleton (OR West Greene) Surprise 2A State Gold Ball Winner

Monterey @ Eagleton in 2A Semis at Eagleton, Eagleton wins it all

(Eagleton just still getting used to Football and 2A, it will work out in the long run)

Ranking Teams in that Region chances of making Semis

POSSIBLE STATE CHAMPIONS

1 Monterey

2 Cascade

3 East Robertson

4 Fayetteville

5 Smith County

6 Marion County

SMALL CHANCE BUT UNLIKELY

7 Trousdale County

NO SHOT

8 Forrest

The only team with no shot is Forrest

77-0 Raiders (Mercy Rule)

Moore County could win state

Forrest is a goner in Round 1 of the Playoffs (Even if the opponent is Trousdale Co.)

PF is in a tough region and played a tough schedule

GP looks a lock to win it but they usually dont make it far in the playoffs

GP 56 PF 0 (Mercy Rule)

PC 49 WH 48

Macon County 35-21

TKA is one of the biggest dissapointments of the Season

Oneida 49, TKA 14

29-28 Either way gonna be a Great Game

5A is wide open

Quadrant I - Knoxville Halls OR Heritage (Whoever is lower seeded)

Quadrant II - Region 3 #4 Seed Over Region 3 #3 Seed

Quadrant III - Centennial Over Shelbyville

Quadrant IV - Memphis Overton Over Munford

Semifinals

Knoxville Halls OR Heritage over Region 3 #4 Seed

Memphis Overton over Centennial (UPSET!)

State Championship

Knoxville Halls OR Heritage Over Memphis Overton

Exactly. It appears when Playoffs start Region 1 and Region 2 Are best in state; usually as the state championship winner usually comes from there however this year could be another good one as Pearl Cohen has there same QB back and he was good last year. 

Yeah 4A is wide open this year and I definitely see a New Champion

I dont see AC Repeating

I doubt we (Fulton) win it this year

Greeneville aint winning it

I don't think Elizabethton gets their Title back

Pearl Cohn was in the title game last year and have unfinished business, but Marshall County is better I think

I can see Gibbs, Carter, Northview, Station Camp, Creek Wood, Obion County, Hixson, White County also as possible winners

But yeah the winners spot in 4A is wide open

Bees by 1 in a tossup game

1 Upperman - Loses in First Round to East Ridge

2 Stone Memorial - Loses in First Round 

3 Macon County - Beats Red Bank in First Round, Loses in Second Round to East Ridge

4 White County - Suprise Semifinalist (Beats Hixson OR Red Bank OR Loudon in Round 1, Loudon in Round 2 and East Ridge in the Quarterfinals)

However if DeKalb County wins, that Semifinals pick Changes to Hixson
