BigDave1967 Posted August 25, 2016 Report Share Posted August 25, 2016 Mr Twister, Just now catching up on this thread but ... would you happen to have a copy of Alcoa vs Friendsville from that '78 season? I was on that Friendsville team. We were both undefeated coming in, the Tornadoes prevailed 31-0 that night. I would love to be able to relive trying to block Sam Love all night. I wish someone could find the film of the 1999 Maryville-William Blount game. I've never even seen a photo of that game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigDave1967 Posted August 25, 2016 Report Share Posted August 25, 2016 I wonder why Rivalry Thursday didn't include the Maryville-Alcoa game? That would be a top notch game for them to show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrTwister Posted August 26, 2016 Report Share Posted August 26, 2016 I never thought Alcoa had uniforms like that in the 1970s i thought they wore red helmets They may have worn Maroon helmets in earlier years but from 1977 till now they've worn the silver helmets. Kind of like today you'll hear people say that Alcoa's colors are Maroon & Silver. Back then our School colors was Maroon & Gray. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No i do not have any of those films. Only have Playoff films and one Alcoa vs Maryville from '78 or '79 can't remember the year. This is the only one I have transferred over to DVD so far.

BarneySox2007 Posted August 26, 2016 Report Share Posted August 26, 2016 I never thought Alcoa had uniforms like that in the 1970s i thought they wore red helmets Alcoa wore Maroon Helmets with a white stripe on them in 66 when Albert Davis was there and I seem to remember them having a large A on them after that but I know for 100% they wore silver helmets in 1970 with three maroon pin stripes in the middle and a large maroon A on the side. I also remember in 75 they had Alcoa spelled across the side in maroon but I can tell you they have had silver helmets since 1970 for sure in one design or another.

JohnnyLawrence Posted August 26, 2016 Report Share Posted August 26, 2016 (edited) You guys are forgetting the Suitcase Scott years when they wore those awful Michigan style buckets. I think Ironside brought them on board if I am not mistaken....and I usually am not mistaken. I thought I was wrong once, but as it turned out, I was correct.

The horn helmet was 1998-1999 under Ironside. Meadows first team in 2000 was back to the traditional helmet.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
