Game had me a little worried having to play so many young kids. Missing 4 defensive backs against a team that likes to throw it.We had our struggles with it but they just simply couldn't do anything with our power running game. Hope the Oakdale kids that got hurt are alright, I wouldn't want to be on the bus for the long ride home.

I wonder when the last time all 5 Carter County teams won on the same night was?

I believe you guys will be tough by the time playoffs roll around, I wouldn't want to be the team coming up there.

We're similar to oneida or midway but not on Harriman, coalfied, or gb's level. I can't believe some thought we would lose tonight. We were 5tds better

I'll be honest, when I walked up the steps and onto Orr Field last night! I had a bad feeling about the game. I watched our team going through pre game warm ups and I seen 5 plus young men in slings, braces, casts n such and I got worried. I mean C Mon we are a Small 1a team up here as far as you can go in East TN. We just couldn't afford ANY injuries this year! Especially on starters and season ending ones at that. After the first Qtr I was still a Lil worried that their short passing was gonna beat us! Even tho our pass D with fresh young men startinh was better than I expected. At half time I still wandered if our boys could get their first W of the season! Then in the second half itbseemed that our line started plowing ways for those backs to run through, passes started to land in the right hands and I really believe we had a couple young, big men to realize that its ok to hit. I seen a Lil momentum and excitement in those Landers actions and that was huge. I seen our coaches running the sidelines and clapping and high fiving which was a great thing for us all! Players and fans. I seen a couple young running backs they will have impact in Future Cloudland Ball teams. That game is behind us now and was good for them boys to experience, but now its time to look towards Monday and get to work on what they need to do to beat The Vikes of AC! I know one thing they, AC don't like to do and that's hit. From what I've heard from Avery players when they played Hampton, they don't like getting hit. Good job last night Young Lander squad. Hang in there and work hard. It'll pay off even if you was to lose the rest of the games of the season. Its contagious from one player to another. Seniors step up and help these young fellers along day in and day out on and off the field. BTW, I hope the Oakdale players that got hurt last night are ok! If possible I'd like an update on these young men from you Eagle fans. Those fellers faught hard all night. Win or lose its all about the kids.
