Smyrna vs. Oakland

It's going to be a great game and only one Region 4 team will remain after it. Personally after seeing Riverdale vs. Smyrna a couple of years ago it's to the Bulldogs advantage to lose in the regular season and then come back and win in the playoffs. And Smyrna has allowed all of 2 points so far in the playoffs and if they hadn't lost their mind on that one series and allowed a safety they would have back-to-back shutouts. So give the Bulldogs D so cred. Plus the ground game and the fact they have won 7 of 8 makes me pick the Dawgs. Don't discount Oakland though. Don't do it.

I think it goes without saying as to how great of a game this shall be. Hard to really tell as to which team is playing better, Oakland isnt dominating on the scoreboard as much, but has experienced a resurgence of sorts these last 2 weeks on offense. I think this game could come down to whoever makes the best adjustments from the 1st time around. With the resurgence of the passing game, a feel a little better about Oakland's chances than I would have felt a couple of weeks ago. Bring your grandaddy's out to this one, because this going to be smashmouth football at it's finest.

Wow, way to get it started early.....I like it.

 

I've been hoping this was the match up in the 1/4 finals. I'm not sure I will sleep well all week. I wish they could get after it tomorrow. After the battle in the regular season, I bet this thread will be very active.

 

It should be a VERY PHISICAL FOOTBALL GAME. The 1st game was one of the most physical HS football games I've seen in a long time and I expect this one to be as hard hitting as the last.

 

I like the Score in the first post and it may be very close to accurate.

 

OaklandPatriots, you wanted the Champs, You got'em

You know the funny thing Oaklandpatriot, Smyrna too is developing in the passing game.

 

They had some very nice pass plays the last few games.

 

Should be fun.

Indeed, none pleases me more than for my boys to have a chance to end the reign of the Bulldogs...............

 

Maybe Oakland can keep the Bulldog defense on their toes this time by making them respect the pass. I did see where WC's lil back had 126 yards on 17 carries. I will probably sleep well till about thursday night. Come friday morning, ill be ready to explode. For some reason, I think it is going to be around 14-13, 17-14, something like that. I think as much as the defenses grab the headlines, the offenses could have the biggest say of all as both of them have really improved since our first meeting. We could very well be seeing the beginning of a new rivalry in 4-5A, the Dawgs and the Pats.........

I know Wilson gets some flack, but I came away kinda impressed in how he operates. I think he and Christian will both be great qb's for their respective programs.

This will be a classic in 5A playoffs. The quarters all across the state will be huge games. Good luck to both teams. I have a personal interest in this game on both sides so I won't pick a winner but say good luck to both teams. Could be a 10-7 game or 7-3. Or it could be 28-24 but with both of these teams D's I would say a low scoring game should be the outcome.

You may be right about the score. Both offences have improved their offences and they should have a bit more success.

 

Yea, WC had a few big plays tonight. #20 broke contain a few times for big runs. He also had an 80 yard TD called back for a block in the back. It would have made the score 21-9 (maybe 10 if they went for 2) at the time.

I thought that play happened in the first half?

    • And can you tell me who those two quarterbacks were, and every kid that was put into college from Bearden is a Bearden kid? It’s kind of why they graduated from Bearden.   and I would definitely not consider ETSU “waste”…
    • Most of this is complete gibberish. But the one part I could decipher is putting kids in college. This coaching staff hasn’t put a single Bearden kid in college. They completed wasted one of the best WRs in East TN and have ruined two talented QBs. All because they’re in over their heads. 
    • Well, I’d hope the new coaching staff thinks they are all that because they can always walk around the school, anytime they want, thinking that, especially for what they’ve done for the student athletes and the players, putting more kids in college in his first season than the old coaching staff did in numerous years combined, but we will just sweep over that because I know you don’t like facts. But trust me, nobody wanted Mr. Big britches, made the star player switch to quarterback, which is ultimately the reason he ended up transferring to play the position. He loved, but unfortunately, had to be at another school because Mr. Big Britches doesn’t like when a teenager knows more than him, but can’t expect much coming from a guy who used all class throwing pencils up into the ceiling and making fun of football kids who were failing class right to their face, and in front of numerous students, even projecting on the board most of the time.
    • After that first paragraph, I can see why you’re a TA and not a teacher. Have you made the move from South Knoxville to Bearden yet?    Maybe he left because he is an actual teacher and coach, and didn’t want to be associated with a group of foul mouthed middle school coaches who like to pretend they’re big time. 
    • Yeah and the coach is gone. Whole bizarre situation here. We played them a couple of times at MTSU last few years. She was a player for sure.
