I just have to say one thing. I thought it was tasteless with 30 seconds left in the first half and leading 28-6 for Huntland to be calling timeout to design a play at the 10 yard line to score again. Why? You clearly have the game in hand and it was abundantly clear Summertown could not stop the run. Why not just sit on it and run out the clock? Not a good look IMO. It looks as if you are trying to run up the score.

Tasteless. You must be new to football. Huntland would have looked bad for not trysing to score when Summertown came out an scored quick to start the second half  Huntland showed a lot of class playing young kids most of the second half. Learn the game before you call somebody out. Good look to Summertown the rest of the year.

For what it's worth, most all the coaches I have seen through the years will not call it quits for their varsity squad until at least 35 points or better is on the board by them. (Unless the opposing team is right on their heals score wise of course.)

 

But even if a goose egg is on the board for their opponents coaches will still play their offenses hard til around 35-42 points scored.

Wow, it appears the Summertown fans have a lot to learn.

I am a Summertown fan. Yes, Huntland was better than the Eagles on Friday night. Summertown will lose some and we will win some. We will only get better. You are right it is not the offense that has to stop themselves but it is the defense's job to do that. For those who say they are "disappointed" in Summertown fans, this little town will support their kids and you can tell this by the sea of blue there the last 3 games. This team is small in size but they play with heart and will sneak up on some this year.

Huntland should try to score as many as possible in the first half. Sorry but you will not win a game this year.

    • Looks like South Pittsburg added some more talent!  
    • So much talk about an investigation about student record manipulation and then everything has went silent. Has anyone heard how the investigation is going?
    • Basically what you're saying is schools can basically bully students around and get away with it because they are protected. I agree to a certain extent but when schools decisions to keep knuckleheads on staff starts costing kids careers and a college education there is a problem. Our school system last week had a teacher supposedly push a kid and the parents went to the law and the teacher is suspended. So I wouldn't say that they can just do what they want without liability. This case don't pass the smell test because the coach had already been fired before and she got fired after a year on the job. Sounds like the student was right in this case on the outside looking in because the coach gets fired after one year. How many coaches get fired after one year?? Not many. 
    • Problem with DB football goes beyond coaching. Like Waco said. Thr band is the main focus of their community and school. They have the resources to be a championship level team. Guarantee Ballard or Witten could have them nationally relevant at some point but everyone down to peewee would have to buy in and at DB we all know that would never happen.
