South vs Dobyns-Bennett

[Cap1]

Thanks for the encouragement 91. Kudos to Coach Clark for evaluating a special freshman class 2 years ago and installing this offense. It looks like the perfect match to utilize all that speed running laterally waiting for the lanes to open up. South's linebackers couldn't catch up leaving only a corner and safety to contend with. Whichever coach works with the WRs on holding blocks does a great job. Malik and Devon are special talents and Barger is close to them. O-line and D-lines looked pretty dominant to me. QB play is solid, but probably needs improvement to get you where you want to go. This team could take what it has and work really hard to polish what is already very good special teams and win the big play off games everyone wants with the return game.. I think the speed of the backs was impressive, but I was more impressed with the overall speed of the backers and D-line and overall physical play of the entire unit.

 

63-21 may prejudice my judgement, but I think this D-B team may be able to get over the hump and push the Red Rebels for the trip to Cookeville, especially if the offense keeps evolving with a little more balance. Good luck the rest of the way. I'm sure the Tribe will rep Kingsport well as there are a lot of good young men on that team. Always a pleasure to play at the Fred over any other venue regardless of the outcome.

Come on Crawdad... I know you got a BiiiiGGGG slice of the humble pie tonight but don't you thing the Red Rebel part was a little overboard.

I guess that would depend on your interpretation of "push" Cap. Don't read more into it than you need .

Great game guys.Cap,I'll agree that there is a lot of work before thinking about standing with the big red machine.Depth up front is a concern.We already have one playing both ways a lot.After that one drive by South,we may have to beef up the front some more with our big man when playing really big teams like Maryville.They have a great quarterback and just as much speed,and that brings me to my pet peeve.I don't think all of our cover defensive backs are good enough to be half way jogging onto the field while our opponent is up to the line running a play.We surely have kids on the bench that want to play and have enough fire to run onto the field when their number is called.Number two pet peeve,if these kids don't think a stupid 15 yard penalty will get you beat,just ask the coaches about Mcminn county a few years ago.We can't be in 25 yard downs and just throw it up for a prayer.The holding call was bs however that our two guys got on that one play.

This was a pretty good win tonight over the rednecks but sill my favorite was the game in 2006 where we won by the score of 44-0.

So you don't like the 61-0 score in 2000?!?

If it hadn't been for the Halftime show I would have asked for my money back. The band is as advertised... very good and very entertaining! It was a decent game for a quarter being that the score was only 21 to 14 (I think) and DB scored off a South turnover in the red zone, a 80+ yard kickoff return, and a houdini in the end-zone that should have been an interception. South perfectly executed a beautiful hook and ladder and then proceeded to drive the ball down DB's throat for another score. Then DB opened the can... end of story.

 

By the way... South's hoodlum... I mean student section has to be the most disrespectful group of kids I have ever seen and they seem to be that way almost every year; and it's getting worse. I can't help but think that they are a direct reflection of their school and their parents. These hoodlums booed the DB band as they were lining up to perform, and then threw empty Gatorade bottles at the players as the came back on the field after halftime. The parents and administration from South obviously didn't see anything wrong with their actions although there were several officers that did. Coach Clark is a better man than I... because after their actions I would have kept the throttle down and put 100 points on the Rebels. But Coach Clark put 2nd and 3rd sting in after the first possession of the second half. I have a feeling that this years karma will be enough to change their tune next season... mark my words.

 

Cap1 you haven't seen the half of it concerning the hoodlum's. Trust me. And it is a direct reflection of their parents. Not all but way to many in that area. Its been going on for years and looks like its just gets worse. The flag waving part don't bother me but when it comes with the remarks you here and the Kentucy Fried Chicken boxes on their heads like they did at Science Hill game you know where their coming from. My own daughter was called names by a bunch of hoodlums and had stuff throwed at her at a South-DB game a few years ago and had to be escorted to her car by the police after that game. The school officials never do anything about it so I guess you have to say their just as bad. If I was a head coach and I knew my players had come to the DB game during our off week and stood at the fence and talked trash, yelling at the DB players during warm ups I would bench their sorry butts. I don't know maybe he sent them over there. Not all the people at South or that community is that way but to many are. That karma thing has been going on for 20 years now and they have never caught on. They never will.

That display by the South student section was one of the worst displays of unsportsman like conduct i've seen ever. Booing our band when we walked on the field and then throwing water bottles at our players when they came out to warm up after halftime. After the police officer came over they started heckling the officer and shaking those stupid milk jugs with gravel. At that point the officer should have called for backup and had the entire student section escorted to the door. That was rediculous and those students should have been made example of. Come on parents, it's time to do something about this. Don't allow your kids to disrespect as it's a direct replection on you and your community. If you don't, there's going to be someone get hurt or worse in the future. And nobody wants that. Show a little respect and maturity and just flat out GROW UP!!!!!! Roll Tribe!!!!!
