All right, the two best AAA teams will be playing in Soddy tomorrow afternoon. By mere logic, that's the state championship but as usual, the state championship usually happens before the media recognized game... :D

 

i agree. same thing happened in basketball this past year in AA (Bolivar and Mitchell playing in the first round).

Yep, this happens all the time. There's always a region loaded with top teams in every sport. Games like the one tomorrow measure you no matter win or lose. It should be a great game.

With no dog in the hunt, I think about a year ago everyone was saying that it was between these two schools to win it all. But as I recall someone forgot to tell the rest of the schools. And lo and behold there came one that did not want to listen, or didn't care what others had to say. Beat both of you and won the state, I was suprised too. There are 7 other teams that might not be so quick to give up. Will there be another Red Bank this year? On the other side, that should be one great game to see.

Every year top teams in their sport match up prior to the championship game for one reason or other. No matter what the outcome in the state playoffs, there may be a time when the two best teams in the state matched up prior. Stats, power ratings and winning percentages are typical indicators. I'm not taking anything away from the recognized state playoff system. It's just a fact of life that things happen and the best two teams aren't usually matched up at state time.

No dog in this fight either.......JUSTMYTWOANDONEHALFCENTSWORTH.3pennies.jpg

well said my2cents. If Riverdale and soddy were all so almighty as they believe they are, then they wouldnt get beat like they did last year. Maybe they have the best players, but that doesnt necessarily mean they have the best team. you never know how anyone reacts when that collar gets a little bit tight.

call me crazy but didn't Liberty win AA....so the Bolivar vs. Mitchell matchup was not the title game just as Riverdale vs. Soddy Daisy is not the title game...people may think it is but just look at AA basketball for proof that it doesn't work out that way.

ERA...good luck to Riverdale..I just hope the TSSAA sends in an impartial group of umpires for that game, otherwise your team is up a creek without a paddle. Cpt. Kirk owns the Chattanooga umpires, and they never try to hide the fact that they are partial toward his teams

      When you have a school that right at 200 kids only half are going to be male and to get 25% of them to come out for football is a very hard task. Take away an 8th grade syatem and your you have another hill to climb up. If 5 kids are actually leaving your not going to have enough for practice. Your only chances for wins would be against the weakest of weak teams. At one time Greenback had kids coming across the wall like the Mexican Border and now their leaving town before sundown. A hugh mistake was made on not hiring Ryan back because of his ties to the community and his ability to bring in the right kids, not run them off. The last coach failed because he wasn't one of community so they go out and do it again. I'm sure Coach Clemmer is a good person because I do know people that do like him but he is caught in the middle of a fan base that will not support him no matter what and it could lead to a disaster if that many kids are leaving the program. The person that caused all of this mess has no business on the school board and needs to stick with hiding in the bushes giving out speeding tickets to out of towners coming through.

      My outsider looking in perspective is Oliver Springs, Coalfield, Rockwood, and Harriman: fill out the top 4 good teams that beat up on the bottom and will all be in a good place to win in the 1st round with one team maybe making it farther. Midway: funnily enough in the middle an alright team that can beat the teams below them but not the top 4 misses the playoffs but still has a decent record. Oakdale, Greenback, Sunbright: round out the bottom each team has its problems and with a rough region and challenging non-conference records may not be pretty. Oakdale graduated lots of talent and experience, Greenback is in all sorts of internal turmoil with their new coach, and Sunbright small roster tough region not tons of Fb played. (Teams could be rearranged with other teams in their groups but this is how I see them finishing)

      Kids quitting to focus on one sport could be a worry but multi-sport athletes transferring out would damage more than just football so I think the people who made this decision could find out they are going to get burned in multiple ways.
