EHS @ Gatlinburg-Pittman

[ColumbiaBlueNScarlet]

AE beat GP 14-7 and Elizabethton played AE very close. The coaching and discipline was a big factor in Elizabethton win. Elizabethton will not have that advantage against GP. Their coach has been there for about 100 years. AE was able to run on one side of the Elizabethton Defense all night, and Elizabethton needs to fix that problem and run more outside, AE had big players in the middle and stuffed us all night. I have faith Coach Witten will take care of that. Elizabethton will get to see Alcoa in a few weeks.

Coaching was a big factor in Elizabethton beating Austin-East??

It was good to see Elizabethton's passing game come around tonight, we dropped a couple of balls and did not get a lot of yards after catch but there were some good timing paterns and Berry was on the money except when he was scrambling and tried to force it in and was picked off a couple of times. He needs to tuck and run those or throw it away. They have to get the outside running game going. Thank God the night was injury free.

 

The passing game came around, but the offense only scored one touchdown... it must not have been that good.

I'll take the question! That would be D-B, who got beat by Bearden, who gOt beat by Maryville who got....ah....you get the point!

 

4A football is sad since the reclassifications!

 

Thanks BC! That is kinda where I was going with the question. I just wanted to hear it from Betsy lips!

Elizabethton wins again and returns to the TSSAA State Semifinals. I am just glad that they beat Austin-East once again. This is 2 years in a row that the Road Runners were supposed to win state but haven't gotten past Betsy. How is this?

Can't wait for the game. I'm expecting a slugfest. Hope to see a good crowd from Betsy. I know of few better places in East Tennessee to watch a game than the Mountain Thicket, but I am a little biased.

 

For a great experience, I would suggest getting to Gatlinburg early to eat at Best Italian in Elks Plaza on the upper end of the strip or at Parton's Deli on 321 coming into town across from the Rocky Waters Inn (bring cash, Henry doesn't take plastic lol!).

 

Safe travels for all coming our way. Hopefully classes will allow me to to do a little research and provide a more in depth analysis later this week.

Don't be sending people to Best Italian! Thats where I'm going for pre-game (if the wife gets off work in time, don't want to be late for the game) Good luck to G-P! I'm not a huge fan being a Smoky Bear alum, but I would rather see the East Hades Red Devils win than any Carter Co. team other than Cloudland. No offense to the Cyclones, just not a huge fan of a certain school(s) up there. Any way, I'm gonna say Highlanders in a close one, lets say 24-17.

Who ever said DB was the best team in this area? I would have to say Greeneville who got beat by ....ah.....no one!!! and would beat Maryville or the F5's this year.

In your opinion, CP, who is the toughest team Greeneville has beat this year. Please, please don't say Betsy!!!! 4A is weak this year!!

I'm not CP, but being from Greeneville I will say Fulton. As for the season, probably Sullivan South, eventhough I think Tennessee High is a better team, Greeneville just pounded the Vikings in a statement game.

[rcombs]

If Alcoa is so good why don't they man up and move to a higher division? Are they afraid of teams like greenville? Or do they just enjoy beating up on teams that don't recruit from all over Tennessee?

 

Gawd, I can smell the jealousy all the way over here in West KY.
