I have only seen Bledsoe on film (against Sweetwater) and I don't have any other familiarity with them, BUT, I am very familiar with Alcoa. Not trying to be disrespectful of BC at all, but based on things I have read and the schedules of both teams, I just don't see this being a very close game. I think Alcoa will dominate. Prove me wrong Bledsoe.

Bledsoe Co. lead Meigs Co. by 6 in the 4th quarter. The same Meigs team that I saw Polk's JV hold to 0 first downs the week prior.

 

This one gets ugly quick. :popcorneater:

I don't much much stock in what teams did against another apponent. It's how the personel match up. And Meigs knew they weren't going to beat Polk before they played the game.

 

I don't think Bledsoe will beat Alcoa either, but I think it will be closer than one thinks. And by all rights they shouldn't beat teams like Alcoa. I think this little team has a lot of heart and has overcome a great deal this year. Good luck Warriors, you will need it.

I love this game..... Never in my life would I have EVER thought Alcoa would be coming to Pikeville to play especially in the playoffs.... I watched Alcoa play against Maryville and well they are very good..... I know Alcoa loss the game against Maryville but I said they would still be playing for the gold ball after that game.... I hope for a flawless game from Bledsoe Co. and not a blowout from Alcoa.....

Having watched both Alcoa and Bledsoe this season and both recently. I have to say I have to give the edge to alcoa. However, compared to the last several teams alcoa has had this alcoa team is down. Alcoa will have the speed and size advantage. Bledsoe on the other hand has had so many things happen this year, its truly remarkable. Bledsoe is playing inspired football and they dont give up. They can win the close games and they can blow teams out. With that being said there is no easy bus ride to pikeville whether it is coming over the mountian from dayton or over from crossville it will be a long drive in. If bledsoe wants to have a chance in this game. They have to stop the running game of alcoa (since alcoa dosnt have much of a passing game) and score every chance they get on offense. Its probably better for bledsoe it this more of a shootout type game than a grind it out physical football game.

I think we may need to make an airdrop according to mapquest, talk about over the river and through the woods! :thumb:

    • And yes, in 2010 Clary/Scott Monger got into it with a R’dale fan. Well, mostly Monger lol. I think the fan took a swing at him. It’s funny as all get out listening to it on the replay. Scott told the guy to sit his a** down. Lol. That wasn’t the only time SM got into it with an opposing team. Seems like he got into it with someone at William Blount one year. He was an OG lol
    • Nope, they knew lol. He was just one tough hombre. Played right up to near the end of the Powell game like that and we almost won. I think they beat us, 21-17. Was a valiant effort on his part though.
    • No, that was in 2010. We played them in the quarterfinals in ‘11 the year I’m talking about, but we got hammered 35-14. 2010 was a fun year though. Played Maryville in the semis and gave them a really tough game for the majority of that game, but their depth eventually wore OR down, 38-21. Bradley had a few awesome runs in that game. He was a stud. Nothing fancy, but like I said, a mini Tebow. Would keep that read option up the middle and pound that tater in there. He was hard to bring down. Probably went for 195 lbs, if that.
    • Gibson County will be good next year as well. The five girls that didn't start last year are all solid and we have Micah Hart's sister coming up this year. We  will be very competitive especially late in the year. May lose some this summer getting girls reps and trying to figure things out but we are going to be good. 
    • Dyersburg will be really good for a while. Their JV is loaded as well. South Gibson ought to be much better with four really good players coming up from an undefeated  Jr. High Team. Also will have 3 players back from knee injuries last year. They will be a handful especially late. Dyersburg District right there with the Upperman District with quality teams.
