Oh, man. I loved Cas & the boys. Red Rector. Loved Looney Tunes, too. Would also loved to have seen this game. Got to see CAK & AHS this year. Both teams were very good. This second game must have been classic.

I feel drained and still somewhat emotional about it all right now so I'll not say too much until I watch the film, sleep on it, and post with a clearer head tomorrow.

 

1)Congratualtions to Alcoa. You did what you had to do to win. You put a great deal of pressure on our QB and held CAK to one of its lowest scores in the 10 years of our program. I believe Alcoa shut us out in 2006, but we have to go all the way back to 2002 to find another game where we were held to just 3 pts. We let some scoring opportunities slip through our fingers, we've just got to find a way to carpe diem (seize the moment).

 

2)Congratulations to CAK. Boy, you are my WARRIORS! Very proud of all you guys. Can't say enough, especially about how the defense buckled down tonight and stepped up big. You left every ounce out there on the field and thats all I or anyone should ever ask. Proud of you. You looked Alcoa right in the eye and played them toe to toe. Those Tornadoes know they were in a game tonight against a pretty darn good and scrappy team. With the exception of 3 games with Maryville ( which they only scored 13,14 & 14), Alcoa hasn't been held to just 14 points by another school since 2003.

 

 

3)The gap narrowed again tonight, just not enough for CAK to win, but certainly enough to earn more respect in the football community. Take notice: CAK is more than just a finesse team.

 

Hope Alcoa takes it all again this year. Go rep the region like you always do. :thumb:

Great Game! The old saying that "defense wins championships" is true. CAK played as good as game defensively against Alcoa than anyone in recent memory. Very good plan by the Warriors. Alcoa's defense played very will also. If CAK hauls in a couple of those bombs, might be a different story. Nix had his guys ready to go.

 

But in the end, it was the Alcoa running game to the rescue. The second half, Alcoa took over on the LOS. Long drives consuming huge amount of time kept the CAK offense off the field and limited their chances. No question they are the two best teams on this side of the bracket.

 

I agree that state needs to rethink the playoff system and consider some kind of cross-bracketing configuration. Back in the early 90's, there was cross braketing where teams from the same region would not see each other again until the semis.

 

I hope the kid who was injured late for CAK is OK. Somebody from CAK keep everyone updated.

    • And can you tell me who those two quarterbacks were, and every kid that was put into college from Bearden is a Bearden kid? It’s kind of why they graduated from Bearden.   and I would definitely not consider ETSU “waste”…
    • Most of this is complete gibberish. But the one part I could decipher is putting kids in college. This coaching staff hasn’t put a single Bearden kid in college. They completed wasted one of the best WRs in East TN and have ruined two talented QBs. All because they’re in over their heads. 
    • Well, I’d hope the new coaching staff thinks they are all that because they can always walk around the school, anytime they want, thinking that, especially for what they’ve done for the student athletes and the players, putting more kids in college in his first season than the old coaching staff did in numerous years combined, but we will just sweep over that because I know you don’t like facts. But trust me, nobody wanted Mr. Big britches, made the star player switch to quarterback, which is ultimately the reason he ended up transferring to play the position. He loved, but unfortunately, had to be at another school because Mr. Big Britches doesn’t like when a teenager knows more than him, but can’t expect much coming from a guy who used all class throwing pencils up into the ceiling and making fun of football kids who were failing class right to their face, and in front of numerous students, even projecting on the board most of the time.
    • After that first paragraph, I can see why you’re a TA and not a teacher. Have you made the move from South Knoxville to Bearden yet?    Maybe he left because he is an actual teacher and coach, and didn’t want to be associated with a group of foul mouthed middle school coaches who like to pretend they’re big time. 
    • Yeah and the coach is gone. Whole bizarre situation here. We played them a couple of times at MTSU last few years. She was a player for sure.
