"Nerds" 3A picks

[alltime]

You might be right, but I saw the same thing two years ago when CPA had their first really good team in several years. For some reason, people tend to require programs to build on each other from year to year. LC may not be getting the press that you deserve, but I guarantee that an undefeated team does not get overlooked by the opposing coaches.

Yea, your probably right!

Hey ath, are you a East Hickman fan? If so I would like to tell you I very impressed with ya'll this yr! By the way did you go to Vandy to watch the CPA and Milan game?

Go Eagles! Still trying to build this program. Our O-line really came together and played well 2nd have of season. Still got a lot of work to do to get to Lewis Co. and Fairview level but we have good talent coming up so trying to stay positive. I did not see the CPA-Milan game this year.

East is heading in the right direction! Will you coming to Lewis Co to watch us in the Playoffs?

Going to Overton to watch them take on Independence this week but if no upsets I'll be either at your game next week or possibly Fairview-CPA

That should be a good game to watch!

[ath]

Yeah. So many good games but just have to pick one and go. Goodluck tomorrow! I'll be pulling for our district all the way.

Finals

Alcoa over CPA (Head over heart. Can't pick against a team that's been there so much)

13-3 first round

7-1 second round but lost a 3rd round pick already with Tyner loss to UHS.

Not bad. UHS proved me wrong. It is hard to predict how good someone is when they play a weak schedule and take care of business. They obviously are the real deal (on offense anyway). The UHS and ND game should be interesting.

[sportsnerd]

You mean you picked Alcoa to beat Oprah's Orphanage last night??  That took some guts.

Hey, give me some props. 20-4 ain't bad. I rode the Tyner train too hard.

[sportsnerd]

So the UHS QB, York, who accounted for 9 TD last night....do you know how much of the game he played?

He played the whole game I think. With UHS's defense, they can't take him out - no lead is too big.

[sportsnerd]

That's wild.  There are a lot of players across the state who could be setting records if they played every minute of every game.  Not to take anything away from the kid, but comparing his stats to others isn't apples to apples.

Agreed. I'm sure he is a heckuva player, but I think he pretty much plays the whole game. Amazing you can give up 49 points and win. 20 total TD's in that game - 12 min quarters, that's 1 TD every 2 1/2 minutes.

If I heard correctly the U's average time of possession in the tyner game was only a quarter - only 12 minutes. Edited November 17, 2013 by JohnnyRay
