So I wanted to hear what you thought about the fines, the floating video of the "fight"? So the UC fans are claiming the player that was running for his dear life had did a swim move but the AE fans are saying it was an closed fist to the side of the helmet. Then we have the UC coaches saying, "We fear for the safety of our players so we left the field with 5:21 left in the contest". I have so many questions here so let's make it make sense for me please!! 1. Why would a team winning by 30 points start a fight? 2. Why would a team that's playing at its home field fear for its safety ? 3. Why only 1 player from UC was suspended and 7 from AE was? 4. What FOOTBALL coaches teach their players to run to the sidelines instead of defending themselves? (Yes, that's been said too).

The kid from IMG is a beast! We're not going to talk about how he ended up in Blount County but just know , when it's 3rd and long that's who they're throwing at and you better wrap up or else he'll spin right out of it and go score.

We shall see.....

Maryville is still yall "Daddy". yall have to go through Maryville in order to win the ship. I don't think yall ended their dynasty because that game goes either way every year. Trust me, people are tired of seeing Alcoa win every year. That's just like people were tired of seeing Alabama win every year. It times for new Champions. The ship goes through Blount County though so if teams stop being scared to line up with them, then they'll be able to compete with them. Alcoa's 8th grade team isn't all that so unless they get some recruits in there, I see them going downward soon. AE's 8th grade team swept them this season. SO we will see if they're really good coaches or really good recruiters out there within the next few years.

No one hates Alcoa and we all RESPECT them! We just like having fun in our region. Im sure once the Alcoa folks get on here they'll start making fun of me with their pictures they've been posting for years. ITs all fun and games. I, like many others, are tired of seeing them win every year that's why I always pull for the underdogs. Shoot just like when yall play Maryville, I pull for yall because Maryville is YALL DADDY haha

See what I'm saying, many teams in our region think like this. Got to have a different mindset when our region teams play Alcoa.

Well that's a good point however, many would disagree with you.

We all are in an agreement with the 3A schools and ALcoa but there is a chance. I think Kingston's defense is one of the best in the state this year. Its all about them going into the game thinking they can win. Most teams when they see Alcoa on the schedule freeze up and think there's no chance they can win. When you play Alcoa you got to go into the game THINKING YOU CAN WIN. Yes, beating ALcoa is a tall task but I really think it can be done this year. They don't get up for 3A games especially the regional teams. They take us all lightly. Shoot they got to AE at 6:45 and the game started at 7PM. Yea, AE done but I found that disrespectful arriving at 6:45 knowing the game starts at 7PM . Soon and very soon AE will be able to compete with Alcoa again but we're talking Kingston and ALcoa.

Honestly, I say it'll be a good game. I think you have a good chance this year if you can 1. Stop the run 2. get pressure on the QB 3. Put a spy on their top WR . IN my opinion, this is the year to beat Alcoa so tell your players not to be scared and go into the game thinking they can win and they will. Good Luck!!

Shane Cherry of Austin East (3A), should be in these talks. This kid is special not only in basketball but football as well.

Easy, you have coaches coming in our backyard and promising our zoned players things to get them to their school. Then once they get to the school they ride the bench instead of going to AE to make a difference. Its all good though, the football team will be making a turn around soon, so yall better get them while they're down because soon and very soon, its going to be the AE of the 80's and early 2000's.

Yea, I thought it was 30 too.

Pretty much played like we played at WB, the only other team with grass fields that we've played all season. Nothing to say but the best of luck the rest of the season. Hopefully, we take care of business our last 2 games so we can secured the final playoff spot

Isn't that when the running clock starts? I don't think that's odd I think that's just the rules

Not a long ways but a few players away from getting back to the old days. Stay Tuned!

Yea, he's been seen on the football track dribbling up and down the track with his basketball and parachute on .

Well actually they didn't win by 50 and Alcoa isn't all that this year. Yes, they will beat us local teams but I honestly, think they still have a lot of work to put in before they repeat as State Champions (Not hating nor knocking Alcoa). I just wasn't impressed with how they only scored 7 points against an 0-4 AE team in the first quarter. I mean, yes, they turned it on after the first quarter but usually the 1st impression means a lot, right? hahahaha. His dad is what posted the picture, if I knew how to post it on here, I would post it. However, it's a Kingston player holding "Baby Shane" acting as though he's rocking him back and forth (intimating a baby) with a baby bottle in his mouth. I must say it was quite funny but that lite a little fire behind him and a few players butt. Just know them HEAD HUNTERS coming to Roane County tonight..

I know you got a little happy when you read he's not playing football anymore hahaha I'm just going to leave it at this, see you all Friday and I can guarantee the picture that's going around social media from the Kingston barstool pretty much got "Baby Shane" ready to run wild on you (in my Hulkamania voice)

You better be glad he didn't play against you all that's all I'm saying.

22 seniors? Wow, I feel for you all next year hahaha but back to the game on Friday. So it's Homecoming and you all scheduled AE? Thats another slap in the face, I think AE comes in this game ready to play some hard nosed football like they're known for playing. Many teams have took AE lightly these last few years and I think these players are tired of being a "cupcake" on everybody schedule. Be aware of the 3 headed monster ready to score when willing! Let's GO AE!!! Our defense will have to STOP the run game, I think that's what's been killing us all season is stopping the opponents running attack . If AE can stop kingston run game, I believe we're in for a much need ballgame and a win for the Roadrunners. We're looking at finishing 3rd in the region so these next few regions games are a must win.

Stop recruiting Knoxville players/our players and I'll quit complaining hahaha. But come out during basketball season, then talk because even in our down years in basketball we still beat Alcoa

Hahahahaha, West Alumni here.... Not butt hurt about AE losing to yall 42-0, and I'm just speaking facts that you all are truly saying is not true. I'm speaking of years 2012-2014. The years Fulton was beating everybody 70-7 or 70-0... And honestly, I like roughing yall feathers yall didn't make a post this year to talk about the Alcoa at AE game so I jumped on this one hahah

No sir! Jody had nothing to do with that decision , you all ran from them . They tried yearly. However, once that group left you all finally had an opening on the schedule ….. let’s make a post about this since I’m wrong …

As the Roadrunners look to finish out the year competing in region play, how do you all see the Roadrunners doing against the Yellow Jackets? The last time these 2 teams played, Kingston dominated the run game and won by 3 TD's. Thoughts on the game?

Alcoa have no room talking about running from teams because when Fulton was dominating they called Alcoa every year to play but you all made up every excuse not to play. Then once that group left, you all finally signed on the dotted line . hahahaha.
