Like a good old southern gentleman, I'm just going to go lean over by the goal post and sigh. It has been a season that ends just a little too soon for the natives I suppose. I like these kids, the frustration of trying to get it right, and truthfully a somewhat depleated roster that kept trying to overcome some losses in personnal. Oh I'm not blaming the loss on those things, the kids that remained gave a pretty valant effort, and Rockwood made the plays to win it. Houston Hood left it all on the field......from where I sat his effort should be noted. He threw an interception and ran 30 yards to nail the guy that he threw it to. That says PLAYER, in my book! That tank Rockwood has at fullback (#25) was a load to bring down. Hampton or TP will get a handful of him if the OC at Rockwood is as smart as I think he is. Lambert's Defense managed to keep Oneida in the game and even gave us a chance with the amount of turnovers it created. Lets see 3 interceptions and a fumble recovery should have given us enough chances to close this one out. I'm interested to see what everyone else thought of this one.....so I'll just read them as they come. Congrats to the Rockwood Tigers.....a tremendous victory for your team. Hope your coach doesn't get sore on the long walk home. Hate it when Jesse Smithey calls one right.

Kaz I think these 2 teams will meet may more times in the playoffs! turnovers has been a problem for the Tigers all year they seem to loose the ball on 2nd and 3rd efforts I can't fault them for that. Wish I could have been there tonight to meet you guys but had to work. OHS and RHS=PCC. Coach Webb is tuff with a captial T he will make it

Slimp...U was a NO SHOW!!!!

 

Congrats to the Tigers and Good luck the rest of the way out!

Champ.....Slimp showed up.....he was the one dancing the Jitterbug up in the stands after the game! If they win again next week they may put him on Dancing With The Stars! Good show, Old Boy and congratulations on your teams win.

One thing I'd like to ask #30......did that ball you had actually get trapped or was it clean? Now don't get your gander up, but I believe an instant replay would have overturned that "catch". I'm sure this comment doesn't sound very sporting of me, but the point of that ball did touch the ground. You boys finished that drive in fine fashion, and you should be commended for your win. It was ruled a catch, so boo on me. I would have wondered what would have transpired with 4th and 12. Probably OT, but we'll never know. Just a thought.

The wait is almost over. Another day closer. Taking off work early to make the trek up HWY 27 to Oneida. Like to watch both teams warm up and take in some cool mountain air. Also got to stop and grab a bite to eat. Think I'm going with the steakhouse, I might save the mexican place for a post game celebratory snack!!!

 

GOOOOOOOO TIGERS!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Rockwood 21

Oneida 20

 

 

Well boys......I was pretty close on the score for 2 weeks in a row.

 

For Oneida--too many lost opportunities in the first half.....inside the tigers 10 yd line 3 times, and only 7 points......Could have easily been 21-0 at halftime......IMO--looked like one of the negative effects of an off-week in HS football....little flat

 

For Rockwood--able to survive the 1st half mistakes that were made and still in the ballgame.....came out in second half and played much better.

 

Go Tigers........gotta long, long, drive next week.

 

P.S.--Nachos were awesome for that post celebratory snack!!!!!
