Gerry Bertier's 4A Weekly Playoff Update after Week 7

[FHSalumn12]

Perhaps, both Greeneville and Fulton need to take note of how Nick Saban handles routes....he puts several 2nd, 3rd, and 4th string players in so that we don't run up gaudy numbers. Occasionally the subs score, but not often, and when they do he is apologetic. Seems to me that y'all like to think y'all are like Baylor and Oregon...just remember, defense wins championships. Oh , and by the way, I'm not a bandwagon Bama fan. I lived there 35 years.

fulton scored 74 without a starter playing past one possession in the 2nd half. Its not their fault teams cant stop their 2nd and 3rd teams. Those players put in the same amount of hours as starters so you darn right when they get their chance to get in they are going to play hard as well. It's not running up the score. With your logic once we get up by 40 we should just punt it on first down and play defense the rest of the game huh? Wait our defense has a few tds this year too maybe we should just go to the lockeroom and call the game once it gets past 35.

Schedule better opponents.....if y'all are that good.

Man there's no pleasing you even bama eats cupcakes. With you being from Elizabethan I figured you would know mowest Jeff co and Boone are usually solid competition. Harlen co KY was ranked 10th in 5A when we played and signal mt is signal mt. Only cupcakes we have are our district games an we gotta play those. And before you go saying something stupid we tried to get out of our district but TSSAA wouldn't let us.

Kev did you make Bama mad because he is giving you a hard time.

[BigBama42]

I'm not mad.... I just got irritated when they hung 79 points on west Greene and then bad mouth them for not shaking their hands. Again, I don't blame them.

What would you have done different if you were Greeneville head coach? An as for not shaking hands after the game if that's the kinda guy you wanna be then that's fine, it just shows what kinda characture you have.

I like to think of it as making friends lol

Nothing personal Kev-o, really. But you say Bama eats cupcakes too. When was the last time they hung 79 points on an opponent? What if Bama hangs 70 on TN this weekend....how would the fans feel?

There's a difference between high school football and college football bama. Two different levels of athletes. Now quit dodging my question, what would you have done different?

[BigBama42]

So your asking me what I would have done. Well I really don't know much about West Greene, what was it 58-0 at half? Did y'all put in underclass men? Or your 2nd and 3rd string? Apparently you 2nd and 3rd string are way to good for the level of completion y'all have. Man I'm just giving you a hard time. I don't know what to say, run it up the middle I guess. Lol.

[Gerry Bertier]

Did Greeneville let the play clock wind to under 5 seconds before each play when they scored 79?

lol I see what your saying and I do agree no matter what the score is you should always shake hands or at least I would.Now if you left starters play most of the game that's different. Edited October 21, 2013 by lawnman
