footballfan38 Posted September 27, 2007 Report Share Posted September 27, 2007 that 98 game ricky ran for like 300 and 5tds. second best personal performance i saw. second to his 400 yard 6td performance that same yr vs WB. Upton ran for 356 yards that game but Cocke County had over 400 rushing for a team total and had three backs over 100 yards. CC won in the last minute on a 96 yard drive. It was a great game. Lot of offense that night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warlock Posted September 27, 2007 Report Share Posted September 27, 2007 I don't know about the yardage Ricky Upton got against any Newport team, but in 1998 he had 409 yards against William Blount. Which I believe is the second most yardage gained in a single game in Tennessee history, at that time!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JC4life Posted September 27, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 27, 2007 Sounds like there wasn`t much defense being played on either side Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Needless to say, he ran all over us. I was thinking that he had closer to 350 yards. We had 2 really good running backs in our backfield too: Bubba White and Dan Hammonds. I think our QB Jason Grimes was the 3rd guy with 100+ yards rushing. Ahhh, the good ole days.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That game may have had the most combined talent that this rivalry has ever seen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most Rushing Yards in a Game - Individual 477 Jack Keisling Livingston Academy vs. Gordonsville 1948 439 Demetrius Bracey Union City vs. West Carroll October 27, 2006 427 Chad Jordan Bruceton Central vs. South Fulton September 15, 2006 402 Ryan Helton Claiborne vs. Pigeon Forge October 26, 2006 401 John Harlin Battle Ground Academy vs. Pope John Paul II October 3, 2003 382 Terrence Holt Maplewood vs. Tullahoma September 15, 2005 362 Andre Flowers Dyer County vs. Obion County September 15, 2006 359 Blake Foster Ooltewah vs. Chattanooga Central September 13, 2002 357 Antone Cunningham Gibson County vs. Obion County September 9, 2005 354 Aaron Cothran Fairview vs. Harpeth October 18, 2002 Bolded for emphasis, because an over achieving JCHS defense shut him down in the 2002.

Glory Days. ole coach kisabeth must have not reported the stats to the tssaa that game. i was there, he hit for over 400 and had 6tds. i remember riding back with my parents and girlfriend and listening to the radio announcers go crazy over it. in playing i knew he had a lot of yards, but had no idea it was 400 until i heard that on the drive home. i'm sure my mom has the Banner clipping tucked away somewhere; i'll track it down. any one have some evidence from the internet?? reese??

The game had worse weather I`ve ever seen, rain just coming down in buckets, I swear whatever storm system it was must have just stopped over Ooltewah. Shutting down Blake is a bit of an overstatement, we slowed him down compared to what he had been doing but I believe he still finished with around 200yds of total offense, big ol Jakeem and "give em he!!" Dale Wofle just kept hitting him till he didn`t want it anymore. It would have been scary to see him on a good field, of course the same can be said of our offense that year.
