3A Poll voters should be fired!

[Abijah]

They should be fired! no question...I cannot for the life of me believe that those so experts of high school sports would allow someone with one loss to be at the top of any list. How could they do such a thing. Without a doubt CAK should be at the top of the list, they havent lost a game, this is an outrage. Alcoa will lose to Greeneville, what you don't believe me just ask the Greeneville peeps...Ask Turtle A-E will take it too them. After a huge game with Maryville, Alcoa may get caught in the corndog trap this week. Kingston is undefeated and DESTROYING people right now... I just dont see the HYPE with Alcoa. I do think that they will handle Scott and Stone, but the rest are all up in the air...All this to say, calm down man everyone who has watched Alcoa play knows how good they are and that their record speaks for itself not some newspaper writer...They are at the top until someone dethrones them.

LOL guys and gals! I believe almost everything that was said. I know that polls mean nothing, but these guys get paid to do their job and if this is the knowledge they possess, where do you apply? Seriously, I and almost everyone else really dont care what these poll people or others think until after the Championship game. When I first read that, I thought, "That is funny"...then I started thinking about it, and thought, "seriously". About Milan, I am not trying to slam them or anyone else. I am sure they are and have been a good team over the past several years. However, in the past several years if them or Goodpasture played in the same district that Alcoa plays in, the best they would have finished was 4th. A lot of people are slamming on Loudon, but if you look at their losses over past seasons, they have come to Alcoa and CAK...and a few very close games with both schools! Anyway, good luck to everyone the rest of the year and I am just glad its football season!

First off, this is not a slander on any team. However, the newspapers, media, etc. should obviously relook at who they let vote on these things. I have a 2 yr old female boxer and a 1 yr old male german shephard whom could make more educated guesses than these jokers! The first poll of the year came out and had Alcoa as an unanimous 1st place team with nobody close...the newest poll comes out after Alcoa loses to Maryville and has Alcoa struggling to hold on to 1st place and only receiving 13 out of 21 first place votes????? Alcoa hasnt lost a game in years in any class and loses by 7 pts to the #1 team in 6A, which happens to be ranked in the top 50 in the nation, and now they are questionable to win 3A?????? Are you kidding me? Alcoa is easy 1 of the top 4 teams in the state regardless of class and the poll questions that? Who are these writers that vote? If I was a newspaper or media outlet and one of my people voted for anybody other than Alcoa as #1 in 3A, I assure you, that would tell me that he/she is not competent of handling the job. And who voted for Milan???? Again, no disrespect for Milan...but, if the 2 teams played right now, Alcoa would be a 35 pt favorite, or more. Maryville would put up over 50 on Milan! I agree that CAK is 2nd in state, but there should be a wide differential between top 2 and the rest! Alcoa, with their resume(especially in 3A) should be a unanimous decision for top spot until someone in 3A can prove different...it definately is not Milan or Goodpasture! The top 3 teams in 3A over past few years have been Alcoa, CAK, and Loudon! It is embarrasing to the media that this poll ever came out. Does anyone that voted for anyone other than Alcoa want to bet me all that they own verses what I own when I take Alcoa in every game in 3A this year????????? I doubt I will have any takers with the voters, however, they are willing to write/vote things they have no idea on! I challenge any voter who did not pick Alcoa #1 in 3A, to explain your decision to everyone...especially the person who voted for Milan.

 

You're implying polls mean something.

Since 2006, Alcoa has beaten:

- CAK - 10 times - average score: 36-12

- Loudon - 7 times - average score: 37-4

- Goodpasture - 3 times - average score: 41-7

- Milan - 2 times - avergae score: 25-7

Based on that, you cannot claim Loudon has been better than GP or Milan, or that "However, in the past several years if them or Goodpasture played in the same district that Alcoa plays in, the best they would have finished was 4th."

[Deion24]

Ok...lets just say the top 5 teams in 3A over past few years is Alcoa, CAK, Goodpasture, Milan, and Loudon, in no particular order.

[polkalumn01]

louden hardly fits ur rant man...alcoa will win it all...hands down...but dissin on milan and gp is useless...louden???really

 

Who is louden? Really?

Polls are worthless unless they determine the national champion (formerly in college football) or the participants in the national title game (current college football). As the last guy said, don't worry about it.

Even in college they're still worthless...
