WillieTheWildcat Posted September 8, 2002 Report Share Posted September 8, 2002 Friday night's victory was win # 500 for the Oak Ridge football program This is the Wildcats 60th season of football. The all time record is now 500 - 135 - 11. Yesterday, "simocleo" posted a message asking for some details on last Friday's Bradley Central vs Oak Ridge game... Oak Ridge junior Daley Thompson (6-0, 165) recorded 2 interceptions and almost picked off a third. Oak Ridge had another INT nullified by a questionable pass interference call Bradley rushed for 134 yards and recorded 102 receiving yards on 8 - 29 attempts. Junior Corey Booker rushed for 182 yards on 14 carries with 2 TDs and now has almost 350 yards and 5 TDs after two games for Oak Ridge Booker's 70 yard scoring dash with 3 minutes left to play in the game sealed the win. Freshman Spencer Gulmire ran 42 yards for a score early in the fourth quarter. It was his only carry in the game. Gulmire, starts at linebacker, which is the only reason I can think of for him not getting more playing time on offense. Also running well for Oak Ridge was Daryl Davidson (85 yards on 11 carries). Davidson ran the ball hard and his effort seemed to fire up the team at various points in the contest On the downside for Oak Ridge, penalties played a major role during Bradley's only scoring drive. Oak Ridge is now 1 - 1 on the season and 1 - 0 in Region 2-AAAAA. Region 2-5A appears to be very balanced this season with McMinn County (2-0, 2-0 in 2-5A) possibly playing the best football at this point.

deialways Posted September 8, 2002 Report Share Posted September 8, 2002 Oak Ridge's FANS are no where to be found now. If Oak Ridge loses, the detractors are quick to get on here and bash the coaches. Since they won the threads are not even popular. Perhaps the detractors were not real fans anyway. Thanks Willie for posting something positive about Oak Ridge, even if everyone won't read it, let alone post on the subject. GO WILDCATS!

ohreally Posted September 8, 2002 Report Share Posted September 8, 2002 deialways, Why are you looking for Oak Ridge FANS? Weren't they (the FANS) at the game Friday night? Do you think the detractors are going to get on here and bash the coaches if they win? What would that accomplish? Leave well enough alone. However, if you persist in picking the scab, I'm sure some "detractor" will see your post and all the bashing will start up again... then you can blame yourself for stirring it all up - again!

ohreally Posted September 8, 2002 Report Share Posted September 8, 2002 SirPettus, I am so proud of your post! It appears you actually put some thought into it. You deserve excellent marks for your spelling and punctuation! I am also proud of the Oak Ridge players. They fought hard and pulled out a victory. SirPettus, Do you still want to change quarterbacks? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deialways Posted September 9, 2002 Report Share Posted September 9, 2002 ohreally, I am not trying to stir anything up. I was only making the observation that if the detractors were only doing what they have done "for the kids", why aren't they here now rejoicing in the kid's victory?
