Well, I will go ahead and point out the obvious here.

The biggest downfall of a "record setting" offense, is that CRB was too busy putting up big numbers to get some of the younger kids a lot of game experience in 2012.

It is glaring now.

I expect CAKe's best Friday, but it will not be enough.

Alcoa 48, CAKe 24.

 

Wow!!!!!

Wow.  That's a LOT of exclamation points!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  And a lot of players to lose in one year!!!!!!!!!!!!!  And ... a pretty big misinterpretation of what I said!!!!!!!!!  

 

I'm not whining about the fact that CAK has only 2 returning starters on offense and 3 on defense; it is what it is; we have to play with the guys we have and it's obviously a rebuilding year.  Sounds like you're complaining about how many players Alcoa lost.

 

My point was, and I thought it was pretty clear, CAK has a couple of guys on the OL who aren't slouches, and they will make #57 work for his W.  I just don't get how you could twist that into me, or anybody, whining about how many players CAK lost from last year's team.  Come on, man! ;)

sounds like u need a hug! lol yes, it is what it is, & I like what I see coming the next few years.& yes ur a whiner! :mrgreen:

I have been one of the most consistent worriers about the CAK defense this year, and I still worry about how they'll perform this week.  I think the CAK defense's performance will be he key to whether CAK can actually compete with Alcoa for the whole game or fade as Alcoa rides off to victory.

 

To their credit, CAK's defense had probably their best game of the season last week against Belfry, KY.  They held Catholic to no offensive scores but Catholic's offense is pretty bad.  Although Belfry's football tradition doesn't have nearly as many gold balls as Alcoa, they are apparently a perennial powerhouse in 3A up there with several state championships and 2nd place finishes in recent years.  And their offense was very potent and disciplined and big on the line and very fast in the backfield--very similar to what you usually see from an Alcoa team. 

 

I was pleasantly surprised when the CAK defense held Belfry to just 4 scores, with the final one coming with only 8 seconds left.  Hopefully the CAK D didn't empty its bucket completely with that great effort against Belfry.  They will need to have their best game of the season or close to it for CAK to have any chance to win this game.

good luck, hope its an injury free game,& cak always plays great against us!

    • I have no clue if Derek tried to talk some since into his dad or not about staying here. All he is going to accomplish is going from the oven to the frying pan. If I were the coach all Ale would freze over before I set back and watched one of my good players leave without a fight.
    • If this is true, South Gibson is taking a big chance. Passing on an experienced coach for a guy who has never coached at the high school level is a high risk move, especially in that district and region.
    • Dorian Eskridge was HVA's best back, 2011
    • Jo Byrns was a very solid team last year. Imo, I thought they presented the biggest challenge for us on our path to winning it all last year. I expect them to be in the conversation and one of the final few teams playing in Murfreesboro
    • I'm not sure you understand anything if you think DB's career and AD's career are comparable.  This is a terrible take.   Not to slight AD, He was a good player and he got better as he matured after high school.   But Desean had over 8,000 yards in HS and was a two-time Mr. Football.
