CPA defeats Georgia 6A powerhouse Peachtree

CPA just defeated perennial 6A powerhouse Peachtree down in Georgia.

 

To jog everyone's memory, it was only a short 9 months ago that CPA caused the meltdown of Gary Rankin and his Tornadont's.

 

I'm starting to think this whole split deal is nonsense ; CPA is going to roll up on anyone regardless...

I would love to see a CPA vs Maryville matchup.  I know CPA is playing Ensworth this season but guessing by the reports from their Maryville scrimmage and their beatdown against Trinity they may be a little down compared to recent years teams.  Knoxville Catholic won convincingly today and that's who the Lions play next week.  It should be interesting.

Hey, I have the utmost respect for CPA, and I even pull for them. But let's be real. They beat Alcoa 7-0. Congrats! That's a huge accomplishment, but let's not be too hasty to turn them into a dynasty just yet. That 7 point game could have gone either way, and it went their way that night. They are a serious contender this year. Nothing more, nothing less. They first have to GET to the game, and then they have to compete with whomever they are playing for the championship. "Roll up anyone regardless" may be a bit of an optimistic outlook at this point...

Watched the game online. No way, based on numbers and talent, CPA should have won this game.

Peachtree is a school of 3,200 (CPA less than 500), has 5-6 D1 signees and the #1 rated junior in Ga.. The difference was discipline, fundamentals, and coaching. Peachtree just kept making mistakes and bad decisions. CPA held them scoreless in the first half, then responded to every Peachtree score with one of their own.
I really believe Peachtree looked across to the other sideline and did not see a team that they thought could beat them. It took them getting down 28-7 before they realized this little school from Tennessee was for real.

CPA's defense was really impressive.

Agree. Not real sure who Armor is, but may be a student or poser from another school trying to stir things up. I think 3A has 4-5 serious contenders this year.

Click on the 2 links below to see the talent for 2016 and 2017 on Peachtree Ridge. CPA went down and beat a team with more d1 players than any two teams together in Tn. Many people had them top 4-5 in Georgia with the talent to compete for a state championship in Ga's largest division . This was a huge win for CPA and shows that this year they are among the elite teams in TN as well as the southeast.

Watched the webcast. CPA controlled the game from whistle to whistle. They were better coached, better prepared, in better shape, tougher, smarter and hustled more than Peachtree Ridge. The only areas CPA didn't have an advantage were individual talent and depth. Peachtree Ridge was already tired after the first drive and by the end of the first half, they didn't want to be hit anymore. Outside of the first drive of the 3rd quarter, the defense was stout. Some of the best one on one and open field tackling I've seen in a high school game, especially on special teams. CPA needs to improve the FG kicking, but that was one of the few areas of weakness last night. Great effort by the Lions.

    • If he wanted to play QB he should have either went to Heritage or William Blount and had a real good chance there. In stead he'll be exactly what he was going to be at Maryville. They already know who their QB is going to be in 2025 and it ain't going to be him.
    • Easier said than done. The man who ran for 250+ yards and 3TDs is gonna be back….and a lot bigger.
    • plus it removes the pressure around winning.
    • You are correct.   The teacher's pay scale is virtually the same in Knox County, now, as it is at Oak Ridge.   The coaching supplements are still higher at Oak Ridge, from what I was told, but not a huge difference.   Plus, Rusty is going from a position coach to an OC position, which is what he was at South Doyle and where his comfort zone is.  And from a special education teaching slot to a PE teaching slot.  There is a lot of positivity in that move without even considering the coaching aspect.   Anybody who sees something negative here is just looking for negativity to begin with.  But some live in that world.   Really good hire for Brent.  He now has two experienced and quality coordinators and can concentrate on being a head football coach.  
    • He was pretty darn good for a freshman, but he will have a hard time seeing the field at Oakland for a good while, I’m afraid.
