FBGuru Posted August 3, 2005 Report Share Posted August 3, 2005 That will be a great scrimmage. Alcoa needs a good program to go up against Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TnVols23 Posted August 3, 2005 Report Share Posted August 3, 2005 (edited) This has been confirmed at Alcoa also. Alcoa will be looking to see how they measure up against Oak Ridge, to see how much improvement will be needed before they are absolutely ready to head up to Trigg County, and face Maryville, Fulton, etc....

p9morbid Posted August 4, 2005 Report Share Posted August 4, 2005 this would be a fun scrim to watch. I practically grew up in Oak Ridge, but i'm an Alcoa fan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBALLTN Posted August 5, 2005 Report Share Posted August 5, 2005 Well now according to that Tank guy on T.V. Alcoa wont have much of a chance with that outstanding defense of Oak Ridge. I predict an Alcoa W but I really hope OR pulls it out, though its just a scrimmage. But you all know that Tank guy really knows his football being on T.V. and everything...

TankTalk Posted August 5, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2005 (edited) Now we know people who are on that little ol TV show don't know much about sports. Haven't you appeared a few times? And if I ever said an outstanding team like Alcoa never had a chance ... you should throw me off. They have an awful special group of athletes over there right now and with Oak Ridge not winning the passing league, the Tornados are probably favored to win by at least 8 touchdowns.

p9morbid Posted August 5, 2005 Report Share Posted August 5, 2005 unless someone has a successful background playing or coaching sports I really don't give many local sportscasters much credibility. That being said, I know nothing of what you're talking about in regards to "tank" or whoever that is. In other words, my opinion is most of the local sportscasters are just glorified fans.

In particular, high school football. Tank and his associates at The Oak Ridger and High School Confidential are helping enhance the excitement surrounding Oak Ridge football. I especially like the "where are they now" stories. Great job! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BBALLTN Posted August 5, 2005 Report Share Posted August 5, 2005 Why that Tank and Goose are so smart it makes wonder how they got all that knowledge. And just because that Tank thinks Alcoa not is not very good is his buisness. I still support you Tank and what more could you ask for? p9morbid I cant believe you dont think Tank is very smart...
