Who do y'all think will win and to post scores when known.

(Home team listed first)

 

Sullivan South vs. Knoxville Catholic

 

CAK vs. Sullivan North

 

Red Bank vs. Macon County

 

Signal Mtn. vs. Hixson

 

Harpeth vs. CPA

 

Page vs. Hume-Fogg

 

Dyersburg vs. Liberty

 

Covington vs. Jackson South Side

 

So who do y'all got? I personally think the two best games will be Sullivan South vs. Knox, and Page vs. Hume-Fogg, but that is just my opinion.

IMO, based on what I have heard from reliable sources and from what I have seen through tournaments and matches, the two teams I would choose to be in the final, at the moment, would be Signal and Harpeth(but inexperience could definitely come into play). I have seen CAK, Sullivan South, Hume-Fogg, Page, Knoxville Catholic, Harpeth, and Dyersburg. (Now I only saw CAK, Sullivan South, and knox catholic at tournaments throughout the year, so they could be playing better currently)

 

It wouldn't shock me if Sullivan South/Knox Catholic winner, Hume-Fogg/Page winner, or CAK met Signal in final instead of Harpeth, because I can see them all go either way. This is just an opinion, so I definitely could be wrong, but I don't think it is just a 2 or 3 team competition like last year. I think 4 or 5 different teams have a good chance to win it, just depends on who comes to play.

outside of the 6"6 girl, who else does CAK have, cause when I saw her last year and this year, I wasn't really impressed. Don't get me wrong she is good, but height isn't everything. Plus  CAK gets so much hype. They are one of the best AA teams in the state, but how is the rest of the team outside of the big girl?

Regional winners (home teams) win 80-90% of these matchups for good reasons.  So, without seeing any of these teams I can easily pick at least 7 out of 8 sectional winners.

 

Let's go with Jackson South Side as the only road team to win AA sectionals.  Sounds like Knox Catholic has a good shot, too, but can't pick against the defending AA state champs to exit this early.

    • Way late on this post, but I do believe that I want to at least weight in so to speak lol. I wrestled NAIA competed against some of the best wrestler over all a crossed the divisions and felt great about my college wrestling experience. I think people make the mistake in believe that wrestling some how gets easier as a sport at the smaller college divisions it doesn't the training is mostly the same. I have that on good authority from a coach who was a D1 all-American. it's more the commitment level of the competitors that is different. There is talented wrestlers that can go D1 at any level in the smaller division. sub in Sammy Shires for one he would have done fine on a DI team. He chose a work life ratio that suited him. It's not about talent it's commitment are you going to make training and studying the sport the center of your world cause that's what it takes: NO MATTER HOW TALATENTED BEFORE HAND YOU ARE.  If so then D1 is for you and striving for success at that level is for you like Mr. Palmer said it's what your willing to put in. Now coaches if you have a successful wrestler who fits that bill then by all means D1 is a great option they will see some success no matter how small, but if they are not that committed along with being talented and a killer and you know it then your doing them wrong.  You don't have to tell athletes that you don't think they are D1 tell them to keep their options open to take all their visits to consider all the divisions regardless of their goals. college recruiting visits have you most times wrestle against their current wrestlers coaches and athletes  will find out real quick it's not easy no matter where you go. That way when they make their decision it's a sound one that's based on well rounded experiences.     BobCorker, and oceansize42 I believe what you are thinking is correct but for different reasons. TN wrestler's have the talent... it's a commitment level change. TN wrestlers aren't used to having to put themselves through the level of commitment required and kills them on the D1 level.    WrestlingGod, I agree you should push kids to pursue their dreams, but not at the cost of common sense period... we have to much of that going around this country already. Dreams can turn to poison when these wrestler are not educated on what it truly takes. In TN  a kid who understands wrestling to a high level can be successful with small amounts of hard work. They think their definition of hard work is enough for D1 that is the mistake not the "talent/understanding".  Over-all though we do not celebrate NAIA,D2,D3, or Juco success in this state like other states do. GA/AL celebrates all it's college wrestlers success a crossed the  board no matter the division. Why? because it's hard... I have gone to all the divisions National championships let me tell you to be a all-American at any is impressive especially D2 or NAIA. those guys can scrap and not one of those AA's are an easy match. all of them were state placers or champs multiple times in their high school careers. does that at all sound easy to place at? TN does not give those guys enough credit or shout outs period. it's an over sight because of this D1 or it's less than meaningless   mentality on this site and in this state. GA/AL is better then us on the highest stage because they send guys to D2,NAIA,D3 ect. they come back understanding the sport better then their pervious coaches, and give back and that cycles to athletes readiness to go D1 with clearer understanding of what it takes to be competitive day 1 freshman year.             My post isn't to support one way or the other but to just consider that both sides have merit and that both work when the system in TN. by system I mean coaches are the better educated on preparing athletes for each level they want and should pursue.        
    • If you think McKenzie could've beat Riverside I have a bridge you might like to buy. 
    • Hate to hear Ricky is heading to the old folk's home!
    • By recruiting, I mean members of a coaching staff are talking to, meeting with, giving tours, to students, and their guardians, that are not zoned for their school.    there’s no way that many non Bearden kids just showed up all at once without being recruited. It can’t be a coincidence that all those kids also went through the middle school all star game your boss puts on every year. 
    • Not sure how I would put it as recruiting perhaps kids trying to better their career by going to a head coach and coaching staff with connections all over college football that gets them the opportunity to go play college football and be coached by a coach with a pretty good track record.
