Maryville vs Alcoa '06

I have Alcoa going 8-2 with the losses being to McCallie & Maryville. With Shiverdecker at RB the Tornadoes don't lose much at all and they have a great receiving core led of course by Kyrus Lanxter and Brian Sommer. Bart Hicks is about as good of an LB you'll find and if eligable Sykes may be the most dominant down lineman in the entire state. I just don't see Alcoa losing to Fulton :(

 

Yes Alcoa could be 8-2 or even 9-1, but I still think Alcoa loses 3 but get’s back to the state game. Personally, I think Shiverdecker will be better than Lindsey was, but he is not as big or strong as Lindsey was IMO. I could be wrong. Shiverdecker has played vs. tougher defenses than Lindsey did in his younger years. I have heard there might be an issue with Sykes but he won't be close to the most dominating in the state! He wasn’t close last year nothing makes me think he will improve that much, but should a great deal under Rankin. He will be a great player but not a game changer and he is very block able as evidence on tape. I think Alcoa might be still enjoying some of last years hype but faced with adversity they will fold. Next year I would expect with Rankin at the helm that will never a factor, but I think it will take an even a great coach two years or better to change mindsets.

I will be interested to see how Alcoa reacts to adversity this season after losing the great class of 2006. The past years all the kids had looked to the class of 2006 for its leadership and game changing plays, hopefully a few kids will be able to step up and fill these roles. THIS WILL BE THE DIFFERENCE IN ANOTHER STATE CHAMPIONSHIP OR NOT. Mark my word.

, I don't think we'll ever beat Maryville. Hopefully the hiring of Rankin will maybe keep it respectable, and I think it might. Heck, I've heard Maryville Maryville down a little.

 

Maryville 35

Alcoa 19

Didn't Alcoa beat Maryville in 2000? Then Maryville went on to win State in 4A?

Tom142- U got to how faith! :thumb:

I will be there pulling for the underdog!

    • The sandbagging begins… y’all made sure LV won’t be a problem by snagging 2 of their better players. 
    • Partin left? I’ll be.
    • And yes, in 2010 Clary/Scott Monger got into it with a R’dale fan. Well, mostly Monger lol. I think the fan took a swing at him. It’s funny as all get out listening to it on the replay. Scott told the guy to sit his a** down. Lol. That wasn’t the only time SM got into it with an opposing team. Seems like he got into it with someone at William Blount one year. He was an OG lol
    • Nope, they knew lol. He was just one tough hombre. Played right up to near the end of the Powell game like that and we almost won. I think they beat us, 21-17. Was a valiant effort on his part though.
    • No, that was in 2010. We played them in the quarterfinals in ‘11 the year I’m talking about, but we got hammered 35-14. 2010 was a fun year though. Played Maryville in the semis and gave them a really tough game for the majority of that game, but their depth eventually wore OR down, 38-21. Bradley had a few awesome runs in that game. He was a stud. Nothing fancy, but like I said, a mini Tebow. Would keep that read option up the middle and pound that tater in there. He was hard to bring down. Probably went for 195 lbs, if that.
