I do agree unless you are an easy win its hard to get someone to play you! In the Cards case something like Humboldt. Having to drive 3 hours to get your schedule filled. Maybe down the road Humboldt and Adamsville can get togather in regular season. That just might draw a big crowd!

I think that would be a good deal, cause we definately cant find anyone. We have even went down into Mississippi and they dont wont the risk of getting beat.

I was a little shocked that Riverside got a buy, but their SOS was crazy. The combined record of 5 of the teams we lost to, was 46-4! There was the "bad" loss to Waverly, but I dare say a lot of the teams with 6 or 7 wins would have a different record if they played Riverside's schedule.

I agree! Y'all play hard and we can have us a little rematch! Of course we gotta get by the other teams first!

6 teams in 1a have a 4-6 record and 1 team 5-5 out of the 24 teams that made the playoffs.

 

3 teams in 2a have a 4-6 record and 3 have 5-5 out of the 24 teams that made the playoffs

 

6 5-5 teams in 3a made it out of 32 teams.

 

7 5-5 teams in 4a made it out of 32 teams.

 

10 5-5 teams in 5a made it out of 32 teams.

 

2 5-5 teams in 6a made it out of 32 teams.

 

Therefore, it seams that 9 4-6 teams made it and all are either 1a or 2a. I said in other threads that as small as 1a and 2a are, it would make more sense to have 16 playoff teams in 1a and 2a. As it stands the regular season doesn't even eliminate half the field for the playoffs.

More games = more money for TSSAA! Besides some of those 4-6 teams are better than some 6-4 or 7-3 teams!

Like I said some!

 

*High-Five* Agreed. Some of those 6-4 and 7-3 teams will end up being 6-5 and 7-4 and some of the 4-6 teams will end up being 5-7 and 6-7 after the play-offs start. Although only 2 teams since 2000 have made it AND WON the Championship with 4 losses. But 7 teams were Runner-Up to the State Champion with 3 losses entering the play-offs, also 2 teams had 4 losses.(NOTE: Division I play-offs)

None of the 9 4-6 teams this year will make it very far except in cases where they are playing a bigger muffin than them. That will end long before Cookeville though.

i hate the bye week. It is good if you are beat up and need the rest but other than that it makes it hard to keep the focus. Especially, if you get a bad draw and end up with a week 10 bye week as well. Adamsville played Mckenzie on the 21st and will not play again until the 11th. Talk about hurting ol mo.

 

Riverside was the beneficiary of no other 2a teams in their quad winning or placing second in their district, not their fault. The system is better than rewarding some teams in the past with only one win, but it has a lot of tweaking that needs to happen.

Then their quad should have NO play off team...second season is a reward for playing well and winning, or at least it should be.

    • We have 2 PG's that will be added to the lineup and another guard and all are athletic and can handle ball pressure. Gibson County beat Westview 4 times in 2024. Westview brought in a Miss Basketball Candidate from South Fulton last year and you want to say Gibson County has a mental hump against Westview. I tell you what you put her on Gibson County's squad and Westview would have had a mental hump. Here is a fact. They wouldn't have won it without her last year. Last I looked Gibson County has played with who we got on our campus. Let's see how Westview does this year with who they got on their campus. I do think they will be pretty good but I don't like shots being taken at my school especially from Westview. 
    • Smith County fans are delusional is they are wanting to get rid of Dyer. If they think they are supposed to be some powerhouse of a football program that wins 10+ games every year they need a reality check. Never have been that good of a football program and probably never will. It’s too hard for a small rural place to be consistently good every single year 
    • If you’re talking about when they lost to Corbin HS out of Kentucky(4A school in KY) in 2017, they lost by 1 point and Corbin went 14-2 that year in Kentucky so to say they got “taken behind the woodshed by a mediocre out of state team” is a bit of a stretch. You act like Alcoa never loses at all. They lose games every year, granted mostly to Maryville but other teams have beaten them in the regular season. Alcoa just turns into another animal in the playoffs. Winning is a learned skill and it’s an advantage that Alcoa has over everyone when the postseason rolls around  
    • Carthage is returning QB will be his 3rd years starting and a Jr.He should be coming around.A soph tailback that got a lot of exp as a freshman.Biggest problem is the line.They have a couple of good athletes that will make plays but the rest still remain to be seen.Size is not a problem.New OC will be interesting.He is known to be a trickster but a genius in some peoples mind.Coach Dyer better get the ball rolling.I'm hearing a lot of eyes will be on him this year.GO OWLS
    • If Alcoa keeps winning titles after moving to 4a it makes the whole state look weak.  Havent they won 10 in a row or something.  My god how can a team win 10 in a row, and the 1 time they went and played a kentucky 3a team they got there ace's beat.  Some redbone coonhound team handled business on them, but they can constantly win 3a in tennessee.  I remember at the time looking up that redbone coonhound team that beat them, and found out that team is made fun of across the state of kentucky cause they havent won a title in like close to 50 years.  Think i seen they are now in 4a in kentucky, and they never won a title in the last 40-50 years no matter if they are 2a, 3a, or 4a but somehow was able to take alcoa behind the woodshed in the midst of there title run about 5-8 ,years ago dont remember the year.  Point is it looks bad when a team gets there hind end whooped like a 3 legged rented mule to a mediocre out of state team the 1 time they play them, but can dominate the whole state in 3a for over a decade.  Someone has to start beating them.
