Oakland @ Cookeville

[MidTennFootball]

here is a cav fan. what ya'll wanna know?

 

I think my Oakland brethren want to the basics, although what they saw last year out of Cookeville is what you are going to see most season in terms of philosophies. Very much looking forward to this game.

Everybody wants to talk of Cookeville being down but they went 7-3. They lost by 14-13 to Lebanon and 28-26 to McMinn County, who is in the top 10 of 6-A. They are the only team to beat Giles County (25-24). So they have one bad loss, Riverdale 42-7.

The District they play in might not be one of the stronger ones but games against McMinn County, Cleveland, and Riverdale among others have helped prepare this team for the playoffs. Last year's team traveled to Memphis to play MUS, the defending Division II champs.

It will be an interesting game to watch. Oakland has to be the favored but Cookeville is capable of the upset and certainly deserves more respect than some want to give them.

Not to say that I disagree with you, but Giles Co. is in 6A and Lebanon just is not the same. No doubt they are good, but I do not think the talent level is there as opposed to recent years. I really like how they play and I think this game will come down to 4th quarter, just like last week for Oakland. Like Cookeville, Oakland's tough schedule has helped them get ready for the playoffs.

I am not going to underestimate anyone after last week. I said MJ's line wasnt all that great, and they ended up being pretty good. I would hope for a good game, but I dont know on this one.

Could be a very close game.

Good luck to Coach Matthan and the Cavs.

Why won't any Cookeville fans tell us about the team? Do they not participate? We gave you a quick synopsis of Oakland. How about it?

You all shouldn't have any problem with Cookeville if they couldn't even beat Lebanon. Mt Juliet beat Lebanon 52-13.

yeah should be a cake walk for oakland. . . i don't remember any team over the last 5-7 years coming into cookeville and blowing them out. Maybe a lincoln county team many years ago but all games have been respectful. i hope the same for tomorrow

Well it seems that we don't have to say anything about ourselves, MJpride appears to be an expert on Cookeville but I'll tell you what I think just in case you want a second opinion:

 

Like always, we will be undersized on the line but our boys are well coached, play hard aggressive footbal and have overcame the size difference the majority of the season. If we don't beat ourselves with mistakes we can play with anybody. At Riverdale 4 touchdowns were scored following turnovers. Oakland clearly has a strong team but if we protect the football and eliminate the mistakes it should be a great game and too close to call.

 

Good Luck and a safe injury free second round to all players.
