Of course you'll pass us eventually with most championships. We are a 5A team playing up. Why don't y'all play up to 4A Rat. 

TSSAA website has Maryville at 1684 students. That is a legit 6A school. Cut off is at around 1550 for 5A. Heritage has 1559 students. They should kick 9 kids out LOL!!   I agree Alcoa needs to move it on up .  On  a different note , I like seeing this spirited banter between the two schools like we used to see on here 10 years ago or so. And I am an old Alcoa guy but the F5 blew it (no pun intended). If you don't move on the 4th and inches in the 1st half when you had to kick a field goal and then you don't fumble on the 1 yard line in the 4th we are not discussing holding calls , real or imagined. You must take advantage of your opportunities. Unfortunately for the Naders the Rebels did.

Alcoa 38- 0 at the end of the 3rd. The F5 is beginning to sub as the mercy clock ticks away.

I'm hoping we move up to 4a. Sure winning during the season is good but it doesn't prep us for cak or alcoa. 4a regular season shpuld at least better prepare us for the offseason as playing stronger competition week in and week out can do nothing but help us if we make it to playoffs

No need to be concerned with CAK after this season. They are moving to DII.

Alcoa has a listed enrollment this year @ 656 students. That makes them officially a 3A school. According to Brian Bell , Director of Alcoa schools , the plan is to cap enrollment at 700 students which will assure them of remaining at the 3A level. ( I guess I should have put in a Nerd Alert!!)

LOL 

I don't see them moving up. Since they finished the new high school the plan is to add slowly and eventually top out just short of 1000 students. So , some time in the next 5-7 years they will end up in 4A.

Alcoa has 653 enrolled for this school year. That will put them middle of the pack in 3A.

Alcoa has 653 enrolled this school year. That will put them at about middle of the pack in 3A.

I agree completely that they can play with anyone.

Once again your wrong. Alcoa is a 2a school playing UP in 3a. I'm sure the tssaa isn't going to let you jump multiple classes to play even tho they are always one of the top teams in the state no matter what classifications. Haters are always going to hate

That was true not long ago but not anymore. There are 653 enrolled at the high school this year. That is right smack in the middle of 3A.

Nix did indeed interview for the job but turned it down. This info came via Coach Nix himself.

Gotta pick Hardin Valley in this one. I saw the Govs play a couple of times early in the season and have watched a couple of more times on the BCS replay. They just do not seem to have any consistency except that they consistently fall back into bad habits.(poor tackling and foolish penalties) I don't see them winning another game this season. I hope they prove me wrong.

How bout them Mountaineers !!! I believe this is program is slowly turning the corner. Got a long way to go but this is a step in the right direction.

Tyler Robinson, JaRon Toney, Daniel Robinson, Nathaniel Robinson, Ryan Stoutt, Joe Cooper, Georgio Coffin, Jon Burchfield, Dee Herbert, Darwin Kerr, Daniel Rockymore and surely more that I missed.

Don't forget quarterback and super safety Austin Tallent. He brought the thunder when he made a tackle.

If CPA beats Alcoa for the gold ball again this year, then you will see some of the Alcoa faithful whining about wanting to move down a class to 2A since that is their rightful class anyways. You can bet on that.

Alcoa has 611 students enrolled this year at the new high school. 2A status is long gone.

TD Blackman should be offered by UT Right now. I don't care if he isnt 6'2 or 6'3 235lbs. The kid can play. He makes things happen.  Isiah Cobb played well on defense. I heard Colton Murrels name a lot. Defense bent some but didn't break. Offense played really well. Both QB's played well. RB's ran well. Kelby Brock is another kid who is underated. A school like MTSU,TTU or ETSU should try to scoop this young man up. Tillery made a great catch.  Maryville beat a team in Fulton that will win a 4A Title again.

 

People saying Fulton is down are crazy. Xavier Malone is a future star. Kentell Williams and Zack Dobson are scary. Chaton Mobley and Deonte Tate are darn good backs. Fulton defense is very fast.

I say the same thing about TD Blackmon. Butch Jones should offer him today. If there is a better linebacker in the state of Tennessee I would hate to go up against him. Smart, fast , physical and fundamentally outstanding.

Guess we dont get to find out since Alcoa didnt want to take that chance .. guess 9-1 sounded a awhole lot better than 8-2. 

Yeah, After last years 30-7 nail biter I am sure that Rankin breathed a sigh of relief. Before that it was 28-8 , 49 - 0 , 27 - 7  21 - 24 (a Falcon win!!)  46 - 8. Not exactly the sort of competion one would shy away from. We heard the same thing when the two ended the series after 2006. I guess Rankin knew to avoid the birds for two seasons then he would have a 4 year window of opportunity to pick up some easy wins before he had to cancel the series again. He is a Genius ya know. 

They play tonight against West Greene. It is part of an annual double header that features them and Mo West.

I made the trip to Loudon last night and came away very impressed with WB. They were well coached , physical and fun to watch. The Otis kid is the real deal. The Redskins were quite a disappointment. Count me as one who expected a better showing. I have watched Alcoa play them the last 8 years and this may be the worst edition I have seen. But I am not taking anything from WB. They did exactly what they should have done. Leave no doubt early. I think Loudon may avoid scheduling teams from the BC in the future.

The district won't shake out too good as overall the teams lack size, speed, and are just not very talented.  A couple of teams may make it past the first rd of the playoffs but that is about it!!  LOL!!!

Don't forget poorly coached and lacking post season experience!!

Is this game played at the college in Maryville or is that the actual high school field?

That is the MHS field. Brand new turf grass and Jumbo-tron. 1st game.

Stars , I watched ole Ron Fuller whup up on the Mongolian Stomper at the old Armory.

I remember the last Everett vs Maryville football game in 1976. My brothers played for Maryville then. Maryville won 21-10. What I remember the most from that game is the fight. One of their players started a fight with Danny Spradlin. Spradlin was beating the crap out of that guy. Another Everett guy jumped Spradlin from behind. What is funny is the guy who jumped Spradlin from behind had a son who played for Maryville last year.

 

Everett was known more for basketball. Kenny Teffeteller was a gunner who played for the Vols in the late 70s.

I played for Everett in that game. I don't remember Spradlin being involved but I remember it started after Maryville scored their first touchdown to make it a 10-7 game. One of our linebackers , Robby Nease if my memory serves me correctly , did something not so nice to Ricky Loope in a pile during the play. Loope kicked Nease and as usual the retaliator got busted and was ejected from the game. We had taken a 10-0 lead on 1 yard touchdown by yours truly. It turned out to be the historical last touchdown for Everett in the series. I remember the game very well. We played it on a Saturday night at Buddy Williams Field because we had torrential rains on Thursday and Friday that week and the field was a swamp. But a cold front moved through and Saturday was perfect football weather. The talk around town was that the rescheduling caused Danny to have to cancel recruiting trips. Those were the days.....

I would take Maryville to win in a close one for 2011.

 

As for the past , here is some more history from 2005.
