Recommended Posts

ECS is the top ranked team in Division 2 A and the 4th ranked team overall in Division 2. TCA is the 3rd ranked team in Division One 2A. Both teams run the spread offense and are very talented at the skill positions. So far only one common opponent, USJ. TCA beat USJ, 35-0. ECS beat USJ 35-10. Should be game of the year for both teams. Game does not have any bearing on their district seedings but will be great test for both teams. Good luck to both teams and may it be an injury free game!

ECS may run their offense out of spread formation, but they run the ball most of the time.  They are physical similar to Adamsville except maybe more so.  This will definitely be a great game!!!

I agree they do tend to run more than pass out of spread. Both teams are very disciplined and skilled. I think TCA is more skilled on Offense but ECS is more skilled on Defense. TCA's Coach Butler is a former assistant for ECS. This will be a fun game to watch. I expect a lot of points to be scored!

TCAIntense you also forgot another common opponent.

 

Trinity beat St. George 41-38 in OT.

 

ECS beat St. George 34-14.

You are correct! I did forget. It appears we handled USJ a whole lot easier than ECS did( we could have won 50-0) and ECS handled St. George's a whole lot easier than we did so I would project this is even going into the game.

There will be alot of big games this coming weekend in West Tennessee.  However, TCA at ECS will be THE GAME.  Two common opponants for both teams in this game and you can make arguments for either side based on previous games outcomes.  Skill players galore on both teams.

 

I do wish that the TSSAA would assign officials not associated with either the Memphis or Jackson associations.  Unfortunately, that won't happen. 

 

Radio coverage of this game will be provided by WDVW 105.3fm and you can also listen in online at http://www.gracebroadcasting.com .

 

This game is going to be fun.

 

My prediction............You don't ask the Lions to come to your homecoming dance.

Why not??? Seems like it wouldn't be that difficult to get officials from the Northwest Region.

The TSSAA won't assign officials from outside the Memphis association because that would be saying their officials are not that good, which they aren't.  I am definately not a fan of officials from the Northwest association either.  Would like to see some Nashville officails assigned.  But like I said,that is not going to happen.

    • I've caught a few games this year. We have a decent team.   I'm hoping this group can qualify for state.  
    • Pirates baseball team is region 3 champs.  Host sectional Wednesday.   Go Pirates!!
    • I am interested in seeing how much they progress in year two under Fitz myself. I do believe they will improve but how much will be the question.
    • Pirates can make a run at the dance for sure.
    • I've always been a football fan first and then if you have a band that's awesome.No question that DB has one of the best bands in the country and the whole region should attend at least one DB game just to see their band. I don't know if Nick Saban could come to Kingsport and build a football program that could match the Dobyns Bennett band's success.That said,as mentioned before, a couple of things would have to change in order for the Tribe to just win a state championship on the field.Besides a program that starts from the peewee teams and goes all the way to J Fred with all coaches and weight training { in time }on the same page. Sometimes it also takes a little luck like the 1998 Vols .There are a lot of great athletes at a lot of big schools around the state and just because you want something doesn't mean your going to build a program like Alcoa has. Yes,start at the bottom and have guys that are quality coaches teaching at every level is 100% the first step. Parents can make it a lot easier by getting their young athletes into an early start with conditioning and weights as well when they are old enough to lift.If your son is a man in the weight room before he gets to DB , then it won't take a "Dobbs" coach to make him competitive against other schools athletes when it comes to strength.
