Oak Ridge vs. Maryville scrimmage

[Wildmanfan]

I wanted to start this thread in the spirit of good sportsmanship. How much is there to prove in a scrimmage game. Are there bragging rights involved? Last year was a 10 on offense 10 plays on D. I personally would like to see a more game like structure. Anyway I am looking foward to it and looking foward to seeing the great fans of Maryville and Oak Ridge together. Good Luck

I agree I would also like for more of a game like situation, but it is nothing more than a two squad practice, called a scrimmage. I think the coaches go 10-15 plays on D then the same # on O simply to get a look at kids and some play development. It is us fans who want wins, bragging rights and the such.

 

My greatest concern is the injury factor. I kid could have his career ended over nothing. It concerns me. Good luck to your Catz, I hope my Reb's can be a good test for them.

I`m not a big fan of 10 play scrimmages, the game like scrimmages are much better. It just eats at me to see teams run out of plays inside the 10. I have to keep telling myself that scrimmage are more about evaluating players, than winning or losing.

Don't forget, guys, it's just the first week in pads. We're all excited for the real thing but reality dictates the 10 play scrimmage early in camp. Many teams like to have a game situation scrimmage a week before their first game. It would be great to see Coaches Quarles and Stevens work that out!
