I wish I could go watch this game, good luck Ooltewah, you're going to need it.

all of yall are talkin about OR wanting a rematch with Ooltewah, dont forget DB. We have just as big of a yearning to replay Oak ridge to get justice for our defeat earlier this season

Amen brother they will, cause J. Fred can be very intimidating when its packed with 7 thousand screaming Indian Fans, plus the ones on the hill behind the Eastern Endzone.

Soddy Daisy and DB are different.... i've seen both. If the crowd doesnt bother the owls it'll be a first.. at last weeks Science Hills game their QB had trouble calling audibles and plays at the line because of the noise, kinda reminds one of Neyland stadium.

Dang, I hope it doesn't remind you of one at Neyland Stadium lately. There will be no scoring at all if that's the case. It's a good thing we have HS football cause The Vols no offense is pathetic.

Ole Dad

noise wise its like neyland stadium but we are different in that we have an offense and we have actually beat over 50% of our opponents.

I just heard they found a white powder on the UT practice field. The FBI checked it out and said UT didn't have to worry about it. Because it was the goal line and they weren't going to get close to it. Looks like they were right.

Forget Oak Ridge and Ooltewah!!! Both teams have to win TWO games before they could even have a shot at each other!!

 

If I'm anyone in Region 2, I wouldn't want to have to play anybody else in Region 2 again! So let's quit talking about that and talk about DB/Ooltewah!

 

I think this is the best first round game in the state. The Owls have to be the best 4th seed team in the state, and DB's history and program speaks for itself! I know the Owls players that came up just short last year have been wanting to see these guys again, so this is a great opportunity. At this stage in the game, both teams have the skill to win. It's just going to come down to who can execute and not make stupid mistakes (penalties, etc.).

 

I haven't seen DB play this year, so like someone said above, I think the best people to comment are the Oak Ridge fans.

 

Go Owls!

Congrats DB Indians on your 6th straight outright Big East Title. This one is espescially sa-weet because of the youth of this team. DB lost so much talent not only last year, but the season before, that this season was really looked upon as rebuilding only. Nobody expected much from this Indian Team, loaded with upcoming but inexpeirenced Juniors, this Indians Team has just kept the Tradition going. The '05 Indians Defense is the Best Defense Graham Clark has ever had, and almost everyone is coming back for '06. But let's play out '05 first.

 

DB is @ Home in Round 1 vs a very good Ooltewah team. DB is 9-1, Ooltewah is 8-2. DB has a 4-1 record at home this season, loosing to Oak Ridge in Week 2 @ home 20-3... since then Dobyns-Bennett has won 6 straight games, 3 at home and 3 on the road.

Ooltewah is without a doubt the best #4 Seed in the State, in any Classification.

The Owls are 3-2 on the Road this Season, loosing to William Blount and Farragut.

It's hard to believe that an 8-2 team, that came back from a 30-7 deficit to Oak Ridge to win, is the #4 Seed, but here we are. These 2 Teams, both ranked in the 5A Top 10 playing in Round 1 of the Playoffs. Not sure, but I bet that is not going to happen any other game in Round 1, any Classification.

 

There is not much History between these 2 Schools, last season DB defeated the Owls in Round 1 (21-14)... that is the only these 2 Teams have played against each other. DB was playing without star WR Lamon Williams due to being ejected in the Final Regular Season Game against Science Hill.

 

Graham Clark's Overall Home Playoff Record is 16-5, going 9-1 since the 2000 Season. The only Home Playoff loss in that time period was to Oak Ridge in 2003.

 

I for one am not ready for the Season to end and I know the DB Coaches and Players are ready for the Playoffs. Region 2 5A thinks Round 1 is a piece of cake.... I expect the Region 1 5A Teams have a little more Pride than that.

Roll Tribe Roll

Giddy Up!!

 

Great post Art and you are correct, this team has "kept the Tradition going"! I expect this to continue and this group of Mighty Indians will keep the Tradition of D-B making an early playoff exit going! As Yogi Berra once said........."this is deja vu all over again!!!

[WaCoJaCo]

And Volmanscott keeps his tradition going with another stupid post. As Rush Linbaugh once said......."Your Stuck On STUPID"!!!!

[GradfromtheNest]

What was DB's Quarterback situation during the DB/OR game early in the season? I thought OR's pass defense was suspect...did you guys not pass? WaCo, you're one of the only ones that I can believe on here - so what do you think?
