Round 2 Cleveland @ Rhea County.

[BigGreenCountry]

Here we go! One of the best rivalries around. This is going to be a big one.

[BigDave1967]

I think the Blue Raiders take it 37-21

This one should be fun. Big time passing game against a big time running game!

This season wouldn't be complete without a Cleveland-Rhea game. We are clicking though, so I think we pull it out.

if tennessee had cleveland's qb and receivers they would be undefeated!

[Cope1822]

I'm actually really glad to see this game. Good rivalry and seeing it in the play offs makes it better. Cleveland is playing well and RC is too. Should make for a really fun game.

This should be a good one. Both are playing well right now and have a little to prove after being somewhat down. Throw in some of the history between the 2 might be the best one to watch in the state.

Rhea County will have a hard time with this team. If Cleveland plays as sound as they did tonight they win by at least two scores.

Rhea Co. Cleveland. One of the most unpredictable series. I have seen some great games and wild finishes between these two. With everything on the line both teams are going to be ready for a war. Being at Rhea is a big advantage for Rhea. Both are playing very well and should be another classic showdown

HOT TAMALE!

Talk about luck of the draw... The football gods certainly had a hand in the way this quad has shaken out.  East Ham/Ooltewah and Cleveland/Rhea in the second round!

 

It's no secret that Cleveland's season preparations and theme for the year were predicated on the season-ending loss to Rhea last year.  Raiders were better than their record last season, and they set out this season to "leave no doubt" by the time the playoffs rolled around.

 

Now we've come full-circle, with an opportunity to go across the river and return the favor to Rhea on their own carpet.  Lots of history between the teams.  Lots of story lines. Lots to prove on both sides.  This could be one for the ages, folks...

Cleveland/Rhea and East Ham/Ooltewah has to be dream match ups for TSSAA.
