We scheduled 1 6a team and 2 5a teams and due to Covid we tried to get teams to fill our schedule even from the Knoxville region including Maryville and Alcoa but that’s what happens when you become a solid program …. No takers

Your last 4 state champions come from this region lol dude when was your regions last state championship lol. Your comment is irrelevant

You lost me at hardest region

If it comes down to physical, your team will lose by 3 scores. If you all beat the Cyclones it will be throwing the ball. No team in the state any more physical than Greeneville which was ranked in some of the TSSAA poles as the over all #1 team in the state of Tennessee, that’s over all even 6A, and Betsy handled them. And by the way Since you all seem to like stats go compare Tully stats to Greeneville

+1. A lot of talk on here for a team thats never played in a state game lol

We reload. This team is stacked with talent from seniors down to the incoming class of freshman which out scored their opponents 400 to 36. Betsy is build different

And do you not think the majority of Elizabethton’s games weren’t blow outs also? Lol. Just because we aren’t Greeneville and dnt run the score up dnt mean that we couldn’t. Don’t worry you won’t have to worry about playing your second or 3rd string Saturday.

I agree with you, Greeneville is better team than Tully…. No disrespect to Tully they may very well beat us if we dnt play like we did against Greeneville.

Cyclones have multiple players playing both ways. More so now than the first of the season. Might even see our quarterback play safety if need be. On the fatigue issue, I feel that the only way Tully wins is they get up big early and if not they are in trouble, because I know for fact they will not out condition Betsy. We do have a couple of players that need to get healthy… quickly and that could hurt us bad if they don’t

The issue with these statistics are that it’s based on your opponents out on the west side which no disrespect but has been known to be the weak side of the state when it comes to 4A football. Statistics are only relevant really if we had some common opponents. But I like everyone thinking we are the underdog. This bunch of young men from Elizabethton are a special group, probably will never be another group like them again and we sure hope they can complete this dynasty

4 or 5 seniors on offense and 5 or 6 seniors on defense, but the defense definitely being the strength of the team. And that’s not to take away anything from the underclassman, this team Is stacked with talent from top to bottom. I believe the Junior varsity team only lost 1 game to 6A team and the middle school team coming in next year were undefeated and outscored their opponent 400 to 36 so the future looks bright for the Cyclones.

Agree . But we have to move the ball better on offense this week

Have you watched all of their game film from this year? They have speed and athleticism all over the field, and their quarterback is a much better passer than greeneville’s but Tullahoma running back is a bigger slower more physical back which works in Betsy’s favor.

Betsy fan here! I’ve watched a lot of Tullahoma film over the past few days… my takeaway is they are more athletic than Betsy but so was Greeneville. I believe we have a better defense than anyone they have faced. With that being said betsy must limit their big pass plays and get pressure on the quarterback. Tullahoma not afraid to run trick plays either. Betsy needs the same intensity as the Greeneville game to beat Tullahoma. The same performance that was put up against Upperman will not get it done. Also Betsy has some players that need to get healthy this week in a hurry. This should be a really good game to watch if Betsy can play ball control, but this game is a toss up.
