Hopefully the Lady Cyclones can bring the same intensity and execution on Saturday as they did last night. Betsy got the better of Alcoa early in the season at Elizabethton. That was a long time ago and I'm sure both teams are better now. We'll find out which packs the biggest punch on Saturday, a Cyclone or a Tornado...

 

Both are big winds! Sorry etownsparky....I just had to. Couldn't pass that opportunity up. Good luck to all tomorrow night!

If the cyclones play and shoot the ball like they did against Grainger they should win the game.I know we beat them in November by 21 but these teams are different now and I believe it will be a good game because we all know when you make it this far all the teams are good.Go Cyclones

Home cooking has always helped Eliz. How many state games they won away from home?

Things must be pretty slow over in Unicoi Co. This idea that Elizabethton somehow gets preference from the refs is ridiculous. Everyone knows the refs for Regionals and beyond come from out-of-region parts of the state. As for the number of state games won away from home, I would have to say "probably more than your team." BTW, when's the last time your team has been to state?

Sparky I dont think Buki is a Blue Devil fan. Our fans know that Regional and Sectional refs come from outside Regions (3 or 4), and are "supposed" to be the better refs from their area.

As you know, I dont care for your coach, but I will be pulling for your team tonight. If Eliz does not come in too overconfident, they should take care of business against Alcoa. Alcoa is capable of keeping it close though.

Sparky has to blame everything on Unicoi County.I've lived around Eliz. all my life and I know how they operate. They have always been so jealous of Unicoi County in basketball and softball they had to resort to recruiting to beat them. You know that is why they have boundries is to stop the teams from recruiting. If Eliz. is going to play off of all of Carter County then they should move up in classification. But they can't because they know they can't compete with the larger schools. So they just play their one middle school and stress to the kids how much better off they will be if they keep their team together through high school. I know I've been through it with them and I've heard every excuse in the world not to break up their middle school and aau teams.So there sparky deny that.

    • Never in my life have I seen a team in a scrimmage against their own defense look so lost and confused. The defense didn’t look much better, the coaching staff can’t keep their anger together, not only with the players but also with their other coaches. I feel awful for those players. None of them look like they wanted or should’ve been out there, but for the grown men on the sidelines acting like fools, it's just embarrassing to the Farragut name and reputation. I now see why they chose not to live stream this on their YouTube channel.
    • We could sure use some math teachers country wide. Ever go into a store or restaurant and the bill comes to $9.97 and you give them a ten dollar bill and 2 pennies because you wanted a nickle back and then the meltdown starts and the next thing two more people have to come and help figure it out and the place comes to a complete halt. I see this everyday and it's a sad representation of all these schools allowing these kids out the door to get shortchanged the rest of their life. 
    • I like the Pirates chances. I’ll be there as soon as work allows.
    • Stars, I heard we were searching far and wide for some math teachers. Any chance their kids bench press or 40 times are getting checked? LOL I’ve heard good things from 825.  
    • I think it was expected. “Bad” luck I guess to get a couple difference maker QBs in the same class. I thought the decision was made a little early myself, but they were struggling offensively last year.  I assume the running quarterback alco had last year would be a senior this fall, and the transfer would start the following two years in addition to getting a ton of playing time this year. Maybe he waits two yrs, but I doubt it. The kid is good. So is the one who stayed.
