Loretto @ Eagleville

Recommended Posts

The Sweat twins are GIANTS. 6'4" 240 and 6'6 300. I AM NOT exaggerating. I may be a little conservative. They are Sophs. We played Aville and they are Country LARGE. I can say that because I'm from the country down close to Aville! They all have to be related to Bufford Pusser to be that big!! He was 6'6"" and about 260 and was mean as a cottonmouth!!!

I know about ol' Bufford, that's pretty big. Younger team then but solid coaching no doubt.

I don't care if they would have went 10-0. They aren't going to beat Adamsville, Mitchell, Peabody, Trinity Christian, or Huntingdon. And it's a toss up on whether or not they win against Loretto this week. Weak schedules produce 9-1 teams, look at Columbia Academy for instance. They are 9-1 with their loss coming from a team that was 6-4. And they are probably going to lose to that same team again this week.

Truth be told the majority of the teams in 2A (west bracket) only have on average maybe 3 decent teams in each of their districts, (I know, I've looked at all the playoff teams schedules). Trinity Christian would be the exception being a private school they have played a pretty solid schedule. That being said you then have to look at things like points scored and points allowed and number of opponents that made the playoffs. Eagleville allowed an average of just over 8 points a game and averaged probably 30+ points a game. Not saying they'll be anywhere, I'm sure some of the other "better" teams in this thing have done similar. They all have to go out and play the game and anything can happen from turnovers to injuries etc, that can change the outcome. Eagleville is an up and coming program and has continued to improve yearly and they have one of the best coaching staffs out there. My opinion is that either Eagleville, Adamsville or Trinity Christian will come out of the west. No matter who does they will likely face a juggernaut in either Trousdale or Grace Christian. Just my opinion.

Dude, you are crazy!! Adamsville will win Quad 3 easily. If and a big IF you beat them you WILL not beat TCA or Huntington or Mitchell or Peabody! The only team in the East that would be the West is Grace. TCA, Adamsville and Huntington beats everyone else. Middle TN will not be represented in Cookeville. Take it to the Bank!!

Now hold on there, first you left out Trousdale County who's always in it and on the Middle Tennessee thing, Rutherford County in particular, technically speaking You have Oakland and Blackman in 6A and odds are one of those will be in Cookeville....I know, I know you were just talking about 2A...or maybe not, doesn't matter. One of those will be there.

No, you are clueless. I have seen Adamsville , TCA, Trenton and Teousdale play. Trousdale is not the dominant team as in the past. Trousdale would not beat any of those teams. I haven't seen Huntington or Mitchell yet but I highly doubt TC would beat them either. Have you seen all those teams play?!!! Whose the clueless one now ?4 of top 5 teams in the state are from West!! Grace is your only hope while I admit it's a good Hope.

You're funny, GURU is right on it, Trousdale is down a bit this year they only went 10-0. How would you know if they're down, have you seen them play, your opinion and/or judgement is clouded with loyalty, it's fine to pull for your region but Trousdale is a contender every year. They may very well beat GC.

Update?

Eagleville dominated the game from start to finish. Loretto did get a nice kick return for a touch down and scored an offensive touchdown late in the 4th. Final score Eagleville 31 Loretto 15.

 

Again want to say I loved the Loretto live cast, and those play by play guys were great. Defiantly "country boys" but heck so am I, so I loved it.

    • I think you’re referring to Corbin. That year Corbin went 14-2, losing the state championship to Boyle County. I believe Boyle County has been nationally ranked a few times so obviously they’re no trashy team. Corbin doesn’t sound like a bad football team to me, especially being how Boyle County is 12 time state champions and usually barely knocks Corbin out. That year tho I think Boyle beat them by a few but still a state appearance. I also think that Alcoa game went to OT but I’m not quite for sure. Alcoa is a legit program, just take a couple years ago for example, the 32nd best ranked team in New York came down to Alcoa (not quite sure what they were thinking) and got absolutely pummeled 44-6. Alcoa has beat good teams, they’re not playing nobodies. 
    • You haven seen much football if the Blackman vs Bowling Green game u speak of is the worst officiated game you have ever seen.  Everyone on here swears Blackman was cheated, but i just can not agree.  Rewatched it on youtube, and there are a couple Blackman fans near the camera that out to be ashamed of the crap that came out of there mouths.  I dont know much about Blackman, but i didnt get a very good impression of them having much class by there entrance to the field, and instead of running on to there sideline running to the other teams sideline to cut them off when they went to run to there sideline.  Then before much is even happened in the game fans near the camera swearing they are being cheated.  Seemed like a fairly good called game till Blackman started losing there composure.  Embarassing hearing the blacmn fans making fun of someone on the other team possibly getting hurt, and calling players on the other team a dumbass.  The reason they lost thatgame was because they gave that necarious fant kid a 5 yard cushion over, and over, and over, and everytime he would catch it and get another 7 after the catch.  3rd or 4th and 1 lets give the best player on the other team a 5 yard cusion, and let him catch it when we need a stop even though he has gotten 12 yards on that play repeatedly.  Then the last touchdown on 4th down was a completly different play, but great throw, and great route and catch by fant for the last td they did not defend it very well, and it would have been a blackman win if they make that 4th, and long stop, but they didnt cover the best player on the field very well, and he caught it with the closest player 3 yards away from him.  Just give Bowling Green credit for making the plays to win.  We look stupid constantly saying they got cheated.  They straight up got beat, but no shame,bowling Green had a heck of a team.  People just dont want to give any credit to the other team when they are beat especially when its out of state.  Ive talked alot of crap to fans of kentucky teams, but we get ridicilous too often on here.  I remember the Union City fans saying how they would run it down the other teams throat playing a kentucky team.  They claimed we will run it up the middle all night, and those early 3 yard gains will turn into 12 yard gains by the 4th quarter cause thats how we always wear other teams down, and always win.  They proceded to get there #### whooped 2 years in a row then dropped that team from there schedule, and i have to give those kentucky fans credit they called it before the first year they played.  They said we will beat Union City these 2 years, and they will not renew because Union City has done this in the past before.  Went to one of those games, and the other team ran defensive lineman in every few plays, and by the 4th quarter it was union city that was wore out, and there rushing game failed late.  Instead of giving the other team credit for stopping there run game late they cried that we was gassed after bragging that we always gas the other team out by the 4th they couldnt handle that another team smartly threw fresh bodies in most of the night, and kept there starters much fresher for late in the game.  They basically put backups in on half the plays, and settled with giving up alot of yards to keep the 1s fresh for the 4th.  Instead of giving them credit the excuses came well we where gassed if we would have played later in the season we would have won its hot, and early in the year, so thats why we lost its all just excuses.  It aint like there is a rule that says UC couldnt rotate some in on there oline, and rotate a couple running backs so there starters would b fresh for the end.  They got beat because the other team smartly used depth, plus they couldnt stop the other teams offense.  We cant give credit to the other team when we lose we must find an excuse mentality espececially if its an out of state team there is no way anyone from another state in paticular kentucky can be as good or better than us.  After just watching that Blackman game they just straight up got beat.
    • What’s sad Barney is the cards in the deck are stacked against them.  With the success the MAVS are having just down I-75, any talented players are heading that way. I always said what the Price twins did there was second to none, making the playoffs and winning a playoff game is the ceiling there. On a great year, maybe a q-final appearance but that is a big stretch.  Finding a coach there is very tough. I feel for the new coach, he’s in a very bad situation and I’m not sure he even realizes it. I understand he wants to be positive and have hope, but I don’t see them scratching a win. Maybe he will prove me wrong.  
    • I agree, 2A is the only class in thet state where the west side of the bracket is tougher, not taking anything away from Marion county at all but they should run that side for years to come
    • Should be a big week in Dayton coming up with the 100th anniversary of the Scopes Monkey Trial.
