Cumberland Gap @ Alcoa

Memo to CG: when you get down by 28 in the first quarter DO NOT KEEP THROWING THE BALL!! this is how you get the ridiculous scores that have been posted in the first round the last few years. If it gets to the point that you will not win, pull the starters and run the ball. I am positive Alcoa will do the same. Much love, see you in round 2!

well alcoa with another 67-0 Victory...Great job guys...William Blount and Maryville win also...Looks like Blount County football is dominating...STILL......No more GP to put up 91 points on...I told everyone Region 1 cant beat Region 2.....stinks Tyner lost...I was at least hoping to be scored on before state championship game

I am glad we preserved the shutout, I left after hearing how close the Brainard MAryville game was to see a real finish, instead of watching us full back dive on 3rd and long to spare CG from getting the GP treatment.

with teams like CAK, Loudon, Sweetwater, and Boyds Buchannon left..Whats the odds that Alcoas Starting D doesnt get scored on...IF the team gets scored on at all...If it happens i think BB MIGHT have the talent to do it

Was it the starting Full Back?

 

Good win and good luck the rest of the way, but I don't see a road block between Alcoa and the borro.

 

If Maryville don't play better you'll have to go down there alone this year!

 

Congratz and Blount County is the Home of Champions

No, all backups.

Alcoa had second string QB in on SECOND SERIES! threw a couple of good balls too! 4 defensive scores tonight as well. Should see CAK, Loudon and Smith Co. unless Boyd Buchanan has anything to say about it.

If 67-0 was the final, what was the halftime score of this game?

[DEION]

54-0....like said earlier, Alcoa had 2nd string players in on 3rd series(not 2nd) or it could have gotten real bad. Rankin did a good job of not making it as ugly as it could have been with a lot of starters in sweats and without pads on in 2nd half! Its hard just to keep running and running to try and not run up score after qtr and a half when qb and recievers need to stay sharp in game situations too.

Were you there the 2nd half??? You're right, the starters didn't play the 2nd half, but I didn't see any of them in sweats and out of pads. Lanxter, Sommer, Cobb, Dunkin, Brewer, Marsh, Keller, Standridge were all in their uniforms at the end of the game. Maybe your talking about somebody else, but I would think if those starters were in uniform, everybody else would've been.

Congratz to C-G for making the playoffs. We were a little disappointed that it looked like C-G had given up before half-time. I'm sure it's very difficult to continue playing hard when you realize there's just no hope. I'm not trying to sound cocky, just realistic. They did come out and show a little bit of a 2nd wind during the 2nd half with our 2nd & 3rd string, though.

Good luck next year.

I did not see anyone mention it but the 2nd half was also shortened to 8 minute quarters.
