I was watching a scoreboard show last night and one of the host mentioned that only 2 or 3 of the Offence players from Catholic were from Knox Co. Can a Catholic fan or poster verify or disclaim this statement?

I've heard that too. I want to beat them but we shouldn't have to play them

May be wrong but I believe Oak Ridge had the 5th hardest schedule this year. I know it wasn't the easiest around. We had some local teams that weren't power houses but you have to play them. I don't think Kingsport DB,  Hardin Valley, Campbell County  Knox West twice, and Fulton are the "Cupcakes" folks talk about.

Catholic rolls with their star studded team ...

Hahahaha....

A Ridger complaining about school zones... where we’re you in 1982?

If your referring to me I was asking a question....... not complaining. I was not in OR in 1982. What happened?

I think it will be interesting to see if Catholic receivers can beat the tough man up defense OR will play with the corners. I'm also wondering g what Oak ridges line looks like especially on defense the Fluker Brown rb combo going against what I expect to be a bigger line than the Irish have seen this post season. That said I think playing Eagles landing and Brentwood will help prepare the team. Not going to predict the game cause I have no idea what the Wildcats  look like.

You have no idea what you're talking about. The rumors were always out there that you refer to because VERY FEW TEAMS COULD BEAT US!  Our guys live in OR and they aren't "PAID TO PLAY"...and our best player didn't "move in" and get a scholarship. All that said, we still may beat Catholic anyway!

Nonsense. I graduated in 1982 and the athletes in all sports were Oak Ridge kids. Name who you think was not an Oak Ridger.

It is going to be a long week listening to how Catholic will beat Oak Ridge. I really can't argue with them because Catholic will certainly be the favorites. However, OR is playing great team ball with a lot of desire and togetherness.
