The pass D is the weak spot of the team...... but they are improving with 3 interceptions tonight. I hope they can keep that going.

 

I agree! For some reason, I think this year is Milan's best chance to win it. I'm not sure if it's because Arkel is such a beast out there or if it's because the end of the world is near,lol, but I think you guys have a great chance at knocking off CAK!

First, congrats to Milan. Much respect for your program. I picked CPA in the Big One's Contest but I knew the Dawgs had a reasonable shot. I watched the live feed over a wifi while watching CAK and Betsy. Arkel Coleman will be favored in Vegas to rush for +200 yards this year against us, happy to say that didn't happen last year, but this year it may be a reasonable assumption. Thats the good news for Milan and bad news for CAK. But now, on the other side of that, CAK is just as potent through the air as they were last time. We're basically the same team you saw last year on offense. Its true, we are a bit banged up, but I believe they can muster up enough courage to play through it for one more game. Should be a great matchup.

Definitely don't think you guys are short on courage!! Question football dad. I have noticed that you have some of your offensive players play D when it is necessary. Do you thinki that will happen in this game?? Does being "banged up" effect that any in your opinion???

If we want to win it HAS to happen. But being banged up will continue to mean playing "rope a dope" with you guys like we have much of the season. Substituting in offensive players just enough to try to get a couple of stops along the way, but not trying to shut you down. I've described it as a tennis match all season, we are just trying to break your serve a couple of times and hold serve on our side. No style points, just more points than the opponent in the end. We are just as potent as last year offensively but we've been juggling our defense around all season long. Just not enough depth on a 50 something man roster (including freshmen) to overcome injuries, graduation, and trying to platoon. I will be shocked if we see the same scoring discrepancy this year as we did last year. I do believe this will be a high scoring game from both teams.

I have read a lot of posts about East Tn teams and have always wondered why do they call Elizabethton "Betsy"?

CAK survived at Elizabethton tonight.....barely. They are banged up pretty good and the Cyclones pounded them pretty good on the ground, but their air attack is crazy good. In my opinion, the championship game was in Elizabethton tonight and CAK won.

Wow and all I have read the past week is that the Championship Game was last week when CAK played Alcoa.

I have heard multiple reasons from cows to guns. But I would about say this is the real reason.

 

“Betsy†the nickname for Elizabeth Maclin Carter for whom Elizabethton was named in 1796

    • Sorry Barn. I wasn’t specific enough. It seems I’m always protecting the principal at 825. My interactions with her have been extremely positive, but very limited. With all the other stories being told, I’m confident there are other sides I am not aware of. Regardless, there are lots of decent people earning good checks up there. Maybe too good, which explains why no one is willing to speak up. My beef is with the poor communication among the athletic programs and with the administration. Seven years ago the poor communication led to my son missing graduation due to a sporting event that was planned months before. I chalked it up to the system being totally shocked that the baseball team made it out of their district, and our then AD was a football coach. Maybe they were surprised and did not plan appropriately. That was more palatable than they just didn’t give a crap. Déjà vu, seven years later, same thing. Different administration, but same result.  Maybe in seven more years, it will actually be “about the kids”. They should do better. 
    • That's a fair line. But if it's not over, that's a big problem.
    • RR, you think that changes this year, or at least improves? I know they had a couple of talented young receivers last year that made some plays later in the year. Defensive back was a struggle against any team that was above average at throwing the ball.
    • You would think they got a bunch of interest
    • You would think with football just three months away more would be talking. There's only so much a person can say about someone allowing the field to get painted without asking their boss who would have said ((((((((  ALE NO ))))))))) or all the other BULLS#!T they've done as they lead Maryville High into the new age of WOKE in a conversative town. I'm ready for some football news without hearing something coming out of 825 that Power Munger has done to cap off the week.
