Smyrna/Oakland Is This The Game We Thought It Was Going To Be?


Recommended Posts

RC Kickoff Football Game Of The Week

 

Oakland continues to roll with another big win over Cookeviile and Smyrna is coming off a heart breaking loss to Riverdale. At the beginning of the year everything pointed to this game on the calendar to be the game that could decide the region champion. With the injuries Smyrna has suffered and the emotional losses, is this still the game that surprises some people or just an exclamation point to an already outstanding season for Oakland?

We will need a perfect effort. And some help from Oakland. It's been a disappointing season. Lost some games we should have won. Shoulda, coulda, woulda as the saying goes. But none of that matters. Oakland is a beast on both sides of the ball. Can not commit turnovers. Oakland will have the ball enough without our help. And can't get caught up in the emotions and commit those stupid penalties. It's gonna be physical for sure.

Oakland's one weakness is the short pass over the middle and the deep ball down the middle. If Smyrna can concentrate on this they may be able to put up some points. Swing out passes or sideline passes could be Smyrna's doom. Oakland has taken the sideline away from every opponent they have played so far. Field position will play a big roll in this game. Smyrna cant afford to play on their side of the field all night. If Oakland gets up early you'll see the seconds getting a lot of playing time saving the starters for the playoff run. Good luck to both. Either way it would be nice to see the all the Rutherford County teams go deep into the playoffs.
