Mitchell will win TSSAA 5A Championship

[workinprogress]

How can you say that any game is meaningless. Did the coaches coach, the players play, did fans show up, was there a winner and a loser......maybe it was meaningless because your team lost but if you had won I am sure your argument would be different.

In the regular season your team lost every game that meant something. Now just because you beat Melrose, who beat you earlier, your team is going to win state. Your toughest competition is yet to come. If, and I mean if, you get by Beech this week you still have Sullivan South or Columbia. You might take it as not being cocky and you are right youre not cocky, just jumping the gun way to soon. You have no reason to be cocky, your team still hasnt done anything that they werent supposed to. I say your team that is scoring fifty points a game might not break 20 this week.

You know what fieldwalker, the average person may disagree with you but I agree with you because what you state is simply your opinion except where you stated " In the regular season your team lost every game that meant something ", and I respect that unlike others have respected mind. I am in no way cocky because the game of football is sacred and it has to be played out on the field and not the messageboard. The White Station game was meaningless because Mitchell had already beat East and lost to Melrose, in which Melrose had the #1 seed in 5A and Mitchell earned the #2 by beating East. Now that is what I meant that the White Station Game was meaningless. Kirby, Hamilton, East, and Central were games that meant something. If you go looking at regular season records then you only fool yourself because the post season is a bran new season !!!

Cocky... kinda like passing when you have the lead in the waning minutes of a state championship game.....

I agree the post season is a brand new season. And like I said your toughest competition is yet to come.

Then how did Mitchell lose 3 times this year? How did White Station thump you 30-7? what's your excuse for that?

 

 

The White Station game was the last game of the season and it was meaningless. Why risk getting key players hurt when the playoff format was already set ? You better do some homework first and worry about your team making it to The State !!! The losses that Mitchell had were to 6a White Station and Whitehaven and Melrose, which all are powerhouse teams !!!

 

That's bogus! At least we got a good answer to the question - the other team made adjustments, Mitchell didn't... well what happens if its raining on Friday and you can't pass very well? Beech will run it all night long - and if you bring 8 or 9 in the box they have a couple of guys who can go get it with anybody... it should be a great game... but u better be able to make adjustments in this round or u could find urself sitting at home next week

The past two weeks the Mithcell coaching staff has made GREAT adjustments holding Melrose and Lawrence CO scoreless in the 2nd half. I don't think thats a concern.

Understanding that you feel you are the 2009 5A State champ...who out of the other 3 teams in the final 4 do you consider your stiffest competition?

I hear that Columbia is very talented. Mitchell is battle tested ( Whitehaven, Melrose (2), and White Station)are premier teams in Memphis, so to play those teams week in and week out, yeah I would say that Mitchell is more than ready !!!

Really now? A few on here making my comments cocky and arrogant. I stated facts about the postseason, in which I said that Mitchell is averaging 50 points a game in the playoffs, which is true. (54 + 54 + 42) 3 = 150. This team has speed at every position on the field. I never said that Mitchell is going to crush Beech or anything , simply stated what they have done this far. Now I did say that if a team can't score 40 pts then it may not be useful to show up, and up to this point that is true as well.

I'll say this, whoever wins the Beech-Mitchell game will win the championship... that's my story and I'm stickin' to it!

You know highschoolking, some people MIGHT say that being a premier football team in Memphis is the equivalent to being the smartest kid in summer school or the skinniest person at a fat farm. Not me mind you, just some others in Middle and East Tennessee.
