Ooltewah, State Champs?

[WaCoJaCo]

Ooltewah is ranked #3 in the State and don't look like their going to slow down. Can they be stopped? Can they go all the way?

I believe it will be between them and Riverdale out of the east bracket. Home field will play a big advantage. Where would the semi final game be if they both make it that far?

That will be a disadvantage for the Owls if that game happens, but I'm not counting them out. Its good to have a great football team 5 min from my house, finally.

The playoffs move west for the late rounds this year...so this side would have to travel to riverdale...if they win that long

I highly doubt it. I don't really see Ooltewah getting past Dobyns-Bennett in the Qtrs. this year, but even if you do, I don't see anyone from the east getting past Riverdale in the semis. Ooltewah is just not strong enough to get past Riverdale in Murfreesboro, but the Owls have still had a great year and they are a really good football team.

I think Ooltewah could compete with Riverdale. Riverdale runs the ball 95% of the time and Ooltewah has pretty darn good run defense. I think it would be a great game.

Help me out ImaOwl.

I know this year isn't over with but how many returning starters next year?

[Owlbino]

Wow, if Riverdale really runs that much Ooltewah should win.

 

Mcminn/Sevier then DB then Riverdale then Gallatin. That's sooooooo much easier than what other people have to go through.

The Owls have had a great year, undefeated regular season most likely, region 25A champs. By any standard a great year. They may win their first two playoff games but even that is not automatic. Bearden and a Sevtier County team that doesn't have to go to Blankinship field in round one might have the talent to end the owls season. There is no reason to mention Riverdale or anyone else in regions 3 & 4 cause the Owls will not make it past DB. The Owls will be at home watching the bluecross bowl. 25A was as weak this year as they were strong last year. Good Luck to all as this season winds down and the playoffs begin. As much as I would like to see a region 2 team in the championship game personally I think it is gonna be a region 1 team.

DB is overdue and this may just be the year for a classy program with great players, coaches and fans.

Region 2 is stonger than Region 1, this year Region 2 has a 4-1 record vs teams in Region 1..

 

WB (4) beat Sevier (2) 24-12

OR (5) beat Jeff Co (6) 48-7

Heritage (8) beat Campbell Co (7) 29-14

Farragut (2) beat Bearden (3) 27-14

OR (5) lost to DB (1) 10-33

Yep everyone just needs to write Ooltewah off. No one has given them any respect all year. Everyone is down this year because Oak Ridge is getting beat. Being undefeated in region 2 5a is nothing this year. DB should show up and they will beat the weak little Owls. Kinda like last year. Besides that we don't have a classy program with great players and coaches and you know how our fans are We just got lucky all year long. Has anyone stopped to think that Oak Ridge is down but a few of the other teams are really playing well? Because everyone except maybe a couple of teams has some tallent. I know that I am gonna get killed for this one.. but do ya think maybe total domination by Oak Ridge is a thing of the past? Just cause you have always dominated doesn't mean you always will. Go ahead and say it. "take your shots this year" Well we have taken our SHOTS two years in a row and Guess what? We will both have basically the same teams next year. Ooltewah is as young as Oak Ridge. Sorry Just something to think about?
