I hope that Alcoa and Maryville have a good game...for everyones sake I hope it is a close game...Maybe Maryville will blow out Alcoa...but wheres the fun in that year after year. It is good to see a good smash mouth football and that game is not over until the clock hits 0:00.
Maryville wins year after year not because of stars but because of a great coach that knows how to teach TEAM work. Alcoa has been blessed with great talent over the years however has never had a coach to teach great team work, Meadows did to some extent, however, it is still a lot of stars taking the spot light. This year, Alcoa has a new coach that has a history of teaching team work...Maybe it could turn around Alcoa's program!
With Maryville losing some of their players, I believe that will hurt their offence when it comes to what will they do next...however, Maryville ALWAYS can pull out the passing game and blow away teams. Alcoa this year has a little less passing game, but a STRONG running game. With a QB that is an OKAY passer, however, he can run and is fast. Then they have a smash mouth full back, and another speedster running back.
I look forward to this game every year, and no matter who wins, I will always look forward to this game.
Good luck to both teams!
Alcoa: 21
