CAK 3

Alcoa 0

 

This was a very scrappy game with not much possesion either. To tell you the truth, CAK looked very beatable. Alcoa had a few shots none of any consequence. None of CAK's goals were brillant, but they were scraps that left the player with a wide open goal. CAK did not show me much in this game. They did utilize the flanks much better than Alcoa and other than a few good saves by Blaze Alcoa showed very little. Their offense had no continuity, but they had a few individuals that showed grit.

Interesting comments.

 

I do agree that Blaze played an amazing game again this year. My hats off to Alcoa... Coach Gorman and Fowler have done such a fantastic job there at Alcoa.

One final comment after reading the News Sentinel... there was a misquote in the paper. I was talking about Coach Gorman playing a very difficult schedule in the regular season against great teams, so I knew that they would NOT be intimidated by us. Paper said the opposite. Alcoa was not intimidated at all, and really brought it to us especially in the first 10 minutes.

Dang, and I had just finished cutting that out to keep for motivation next year. Just playing, G, I knew what you meant. Congrats on the win, you all certainly deserved it with how well you all played, especially defensively, you kept us out of sync all night and we could never build much in the attacking 3rd. Good luck on thursday and through out. here's to #5!!!!!!

I am from Chattanooga and a Baylor fan. I have always read with alot of interest BigG's comments. Seems like a great coach and probably alot of fun to play for. Hopefully anyone that read that article will know it was a misprint...hopefully the Knoxville paper will reprint it correctly.

Misprints and misquotes happen quite frequently. Sometimes, I think the guys writing for the paper do it purpose to see what kind of drama they could stir up. But knowing the history with BigG/Akula, I am confident that neither one of these coaches would ever say anything negative about the other.

Yeah, i agree with what everyone else is saying in that what you were quoted as saying was clearly not what you meant to say. HOWEVER, I get a little bit of a chuckle when i read it because it made me think, what if Coach G were one of those coaches that showed no mercy and he really did mean "I knew they'd be intimidated by us". I know youre not like that, but for a brief moment in time it looked like you coach high school soccer the same way I coach the kindergarten soccer campers.

Remind me again how that went for you this summer? /laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":lol:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> And don't be thinking of getting some ringers when we head to Brazil this summer... I'm checking your bags! Kindergarten three peat here we come! (and don't start that junk about the director's wife changing the teams!) It is destiny when Little "G" takes the field. No one can pick clovers in front of the goal like my boy! If you were smart, you would actually get him on your team this year!

 

But knowing the history with BigG/Akula, I am confident that neither one of these coaches would ever say anything negative about the other.

 

 

That is what made this game bitter/sweet... I hold both coaches on such high esteem. They are good friends of mine. Top notch class act the whole way through.

Wow I thought CAK played with alot of possesion and Tarr's goal was not a scrap it was nice moves and a finish. I agree that Blaze had some amazing saves and played with alot of heart and was willing ot put it on the line

    • We could sure use some math teachers country wide. Ever go into a store or restaurant and the bill comes to $9.97 and you give them a ten dollar bill and 2 pennies because you wanted a nickle back and then the meltdown starts and the next thing two more people have to come and help figure it out and the place comes to a complete halt. I see this everyday and it's a sad representation of all these schools allowing these kids out the door to get shortchanged the rest of their life. 
    • I like the Pirates chances. I’ll be there as soon as work allows.
    • Stars, I heard we were searching far and wide for some math teachers. Any chance their kids bench press or 40 times are getting checked? LOL I’ve heard good things from 825.  
    • I think it was expected. “Bad” luck I guess to get a couple difference maker QBs in the same class. I thought the decision was made a little early myself, but they were struggling offensively last year.  I assume the running quarterback alco had last year would be a senior this fall, and the transfer would start the following two years in addition to getting a ton of playing time this year. Maybe he waits two yrs, but I doubt it. The kid is good. So is the one who stayed.
    • I'm from Cloudland and we've never played a sectional game.  We need to win tomorrow night to avoid that bus ride.  Us and north greene can play with you guys so I'm expecting good games whoever the matchup is.
