Seems like Bradley used up all the steam Oakland had left in the tank. Champs no more... -

Extremely true. Kids like the big gain flashy plays. Honestly though when you look back on HS football if you were miserable playing for a team/coach and you have a championship ring, odds are you would've rather had fun since championships are only relevant in the few years after really. Obviously someone is going to reply to me and say "you live forever" if you are part of a state title team but I mean come on life is way bigger than high school football championships I think you would rather carry on fun memories to share. "Championships are fun" well you'd be surprised -

Ngl one of the best takes I have heard. As much as I am sad Bradley Central's season ended, I was just discussing with my buddy that if I had Oakland's personnel I would run the same thing and MAKE YOU STOP ME from running it down your throat -
Sorry I dont have a PhD in Middle Tennessee football I was largely speaking on assumption. Not that deep
-
Maryville players and fans are way classier than Oakland could ever be. It’s because Maryville is used to winning. Oakland is pretty much the UGA of Tennessee football. They’re having their run sure and they are acting like buffoons in the process
-
True lol but that’s bc wrestling requires you to be willing to lose many brain cells and the kids who don’t have any in the first place go to these schools
-
Still doesn’t take away from the fact that the talent in Cleveland area is often taken by private schools
-
Another note I’d like to make since ppl are on here talking about recruiting. You gotta remember Middle TN has public school talent largely due to lack of relevancy in their private schools other than Lipscomb Academy. McCallie and Baylor are too close to Cleveland public schools. You don’t much see huge linemen like Oakland has in public schools in Cleveland area. Cleveland area has the skill talent but the linemen are the difference. The best of the best (9/10 times) go to Oakland in ‘Boro area. The best of the best around here are going to McCallie or Baylor most of the time. (Carson gentle, Amari Jefferson, etc) Former Oakland RB Jordan James is just one of many players in Middle TN Public school history who get huge FBS/SEC Offers. You don’t really see it too often in Cleveland. Yeah sure Boo, Tito, Marcus, but those 3 guys are all diamonds in the rough. It’ll be a while before we see guys or even a guy reeling in a bunch of big SEC Schools from the Cleveland area. Talent gap is there at the line of scrimmage and that’s what determined this ball game.

I literally have nothing better to do I’m on thanksgiving break. Also are you posting and driving or is your wife driving you so you can post
-
Breaking news: plays get called back when someone holds!
-
I don’t have a problem cheering I just cringe with the parents chanting “hey hey hey goodbye” or “we can’t hear you” lol. Honestly at the end of the day I have no real stake in high school football. It’s just funny watching grown ups bring out the 16 year old in them
-
How old are you be honest
-
No it’s just cringe when parents are doing student section chants. Hence why they’re normally things 14-17 year olds do
-
Nobody is talking trash. You’re delusional and making up stuff. Also be honest how old are you? Also Oakland parents were chanting student section chants. Cringe
-
Oakland had 3 TD’s called back because Oakland held. What’s there to question about that
-
Oakland didn’t smash Bradley central. They won by 14. That’s not “smashed” and if you count the last TD congrats you scored on our full senior defense lineup with your starters
-
Definitely was not a thrashing and everyone knows that USATop100 poll is bulljive. Not even Bradley believed that.
-
Let me guess you’re a grown man living out your glory through Oakland football. Grow up chief!
-
You clearly are not at the game. There’s no way you aren’t on medication if you genuinely believe that.
-
“Humbled” as if it was their fault that people were hyping them up? You’re insane
-
Also didn’t think an elite program would be so trashy. This is insane lol. Grown adults
-
Yep. They also just kept their starters in when we made a bunch of subs and scored. Somebody must’ve bet the over
-
I do know that Oakland has an immature crowd. Imagine being 40+ years old and doing student section chants lol
-
One thing I know is #9 for Oakland is bush league. Chirping every chance he gets. Kid needs to grow up
-
Very
