Haha calm down a bit. Not my victory, I was just an impartial viewer of the game. I did hate to see the young man go down as he's an outstanding player. And no need to play the small school card, quantity helps but quality wins you games as last year's game showed between the two schools. In my opinion South is hands down the best 5A school in the Big 8 this year.

Boy are you in for a surprise.

The fact is Boone will be out matched in every sense of the word. But I also thought that was the case last year and we saw how that turned out. So you never know with these two teams... but I'm going to have to go with the facts and The Hill although my heart is saying "UPSET". :popcorneater:

Go back and read his post FUB . You got so riled up you ran right over his word thought. He didn't say they were.

 

This is not your mama's Science Hill. You can live in your world of wishful thinking all you want, but they won't be soft and they will hit plenty. I saw plenty of evidence Friday night. You better hope #27 doesn't knock out your star RB. You guys would really be hurting without his 20 carries. Instead of hoping you can outhit them, hope your pass defense can come alive. You may have a chance if you can contain # 1. I'm sure Coach Jenkins will have some good schemes for going after Snyder.

 

Good luck and good health to both teams. Should be a great atmosphere at Gray.

I'm assuming you mean Tn Hi > South, and if so, I agree Cap. I thought that when we won the game. Fairly even , but I would give the nod to the Vikings right now. It remains to be seen what we will become with our starting QB returning to full time duty.

If the Blazers can put together 2 halves, I think this could be the best game of the week to see...also there should be plenty of room on the visitors side to sit and enjoy Boone's awesome concession stand. :hungry: I may have to roll over there.

 

Nope, not even close. Science Hill will burn the blazers badly. Boone blitzed by Betsy. Rebs beat Betsy. Toppers rolled the Rebs. Toppers how many ever they want.

I think the Vikings are a much better team than Boone or South... they (or more specifically our QB) can't get away from bringing out the rope and hanging themselves with crucial turnovers each and every game. I had to listen to the South game on the radio but I still came away with the belief that THS controlled their own destiny but gave it away with the turnover by the QB inside the redzone (when they seemed to be going in for the knockout score) at the end of the game and were instead outplayed the last 3 minutes of the game by the Rebels. The Vikings beat Boone all over the field and this was without several starters all night including #10 who is our admitted go to man. Like I said... in my book the facts tell me that this game will be a blowout. But like I also said... you never can tell with Boone and The Hill. The Toppers seem to play their worst game of the season against Boone. It's like they get stunned right out the box with Boone's hard nose style of play at the beginning of the games. Boone's biggest problem in my book is that they don't have a quick score threat on the team that I could see. They also have difficulty making up for their lack of speed in the secondary contrary to several Boone fans alluding to them being an athletic team. If they pull the linebackers to help with pass protection (as they did against the Vikings) they will get severely burned by the Topper back... and you can count on that.

Solid :thumb: , but don't be too hard on the QB. He is asked to do a lot is that system. He made perfect throws on the 1st two TDs in our game. The one to Lavergne was a beauty.

Thanks for the reminder Crawdad. I'm a Cowboy fan so I should be use to this. Take away the turnovers and he is statistically the best QB in the conference. Speaking of... what is the call on your #10?

I believe he is ok. He was held out at SH as precautionary and the way he was limping he could have been very vulnerable to worse injury. I would think he will dress but probably not play unless circumstances dictate an "emergency". Thanks for asking. He is a good kid.

I love it how in your opinion Tennessee High is always the better team no matter if they win or lose. Should we call that optimism or ignorance, either was i envy it.

    • I've always been a football fan first and then if you have a band that's awesome.No question that DB has one of the best bands in the country and the whole region should attend at least one DB game just to see their band. I don't know if Nick Saban could come to Kingsport and build a football program that could match the Dobyns Bennett band's success.That said,as mentioned before, a couple of things would have to change in order for the Tribe to just win a state championship on the field.Besides a program that starts from the peewee teams and goes all the way to J Fred with all coaches and weight training { in time }on the same page. Sometimes it also takes a little luck like the 1998 Vols .There are a lot of great athletes at a lot of big schools around the state and just because you want something doesn't mean your going to build a program like Alcoa has. Yes,start at the bottom and have guys that are quality coaches teaching at every level is 100% the first step. Parents can make it a lot easier by getting their young athletes into an early start with conditioning and weights as well when they are old enough to lift.If your son is a man in the weight room before he gets to DB , then it won't take a "Dobbs" coach to make him competitive against other schools athletes when it comes to strength.
    • Dyersburg scrimmaged South Gibson last week
    • A complete cultural change happened at Greeneville and the administration and community opened up their checkbooks.  What a lot of people don't know is Ballard was Zeller's OC for many years and stopped coaching for two years because Zeller and Ballard didn't see eye to eye on some things.  Zeller lead Greeneville to it's first ever Semi Final appearance in 2000 and lost 28-12 at Maryville and had them in the Quarter Finals in 2002 and 2003.  Z was a great coach but lost some control when it came to making workouts mandatory. (He learned from that Mistake and it was at LC when i coached with him.).  Z was let go going into my Senior Year and was replaced by Steve McCurry who was the one that turned the program around.  Steve had won a 4a state championship at AC Reynolds in Asheville and made the administration completely redo the weight room with new equipment, had a football period at the end of the school day to lift, started devil camp, and brought in coaches like Danny Bentley (Still the OL coach), Ballard as the OC, Cody Baugh (QB coach and still there), and even Spradlen who is Greeneville's head coach now as the DB's Coach.  McCurry only coached for two seasons at Greeneville and took a team that had a losing record the year before and finished my Senior Year making it to the Quarters and having a 10-3 record and then followed it up with a Semi Final appearance the next year with an 11-3 record and back to back conference championships.  Loved McCurry to death but the recession hit and the story i heard was he was still buying new equipment for the team that the Principal didn't authorize and his response was "I don't answer to you and only to Niswonger and Bewley" (Two huge donors).  That was it for him and they Promoted Ballard shortly after that.   Greeneville had always been relevant ever since the the late 70's under Coach Fred Sorrell's.  Since Sorrell's took over in 1977 Greeneville overall winning percentage is over 76%.  The biggest reason people might not have thought Greeneville was "Good" until Ballard was Greeneville always played up Classification wise and could never get over the hump. (When there were 3 classifications we played 3a, when it went to 5 we played 4a).  Greeneville is the largest its ever been with 953 students and where playing teams 2 or 3 times there size back in the day (I had a little over 800 kids in the school when i graduated in 2008).  Other teams always would know they would be sore after a game but depth took over and never won a Championship until Greeneville played in the classification the TSSAA actually assigned them. You had names like Dustin Moore (1993 Mr Football for 3a and who Phillip Fulmer said was one of the greatest athletes he ever recruited), James "Mud Turtle" Mayes, Brigham Lyons, Byron Gillespie, Frankie Debusk (National Champion Qb at Furman with GQ), Jasmine Lowery, Cody Baugh, The Greenway Brothers, Joe Watson (Furman), etc.  Now the cultural is from the Pee Wee league up and you grow up as a young kid wanting to wear the Greene and White.  Here is a really good link when it comes to anything Greeneville Football related. https://greenevillefootball.com/   I also don't coach anymore.  Z told me i was to smart with how the school systems are ran these days and ended up going into real estate in Knoxville which has been a great decision for my life.
    • Yes, they will. I'm wondering what kinds of strides Sale Creek will make heading into the second season under Coach Fitz.
    • No yellow stripes on the rug last night. Biggest crowd I’ve seen at 825 since the alco debacle.
