Alcoa, Pearl Cohn, & Covington Maryville, Whitehaven, & Oakland I agree. but I think in 6A there is a bigger gap between ranked #2 team and #3 team than there is between #1 and #2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoardHater71 Posted July 18, 2018 Report Share Posted July 18, 2018 In 3A I believe the gap between 1-2 and/or 3 is significant. Some of it has to do with ability and a lot of it has to do with a mindset. Alcoa expects to win 3A and win each playoff game by a sizable margin. Pearl-Cohn, Covington, Milan, Etc. all hope to survive a gauntlet just to get to Cookeville. In 6A Whitehaven expects to get to Cookeville. Maryville and Oakland probably expect to play one another twice with the game on Thanksgiving deciding who goes to Cookeville. Whoever survives that eventual classic has to turn around the very next week and play a Whitehaven team filled with D-I talent. That's what makes 6A more competitive between 1-2-3 in my opinion. Cane Ridge was a great story last year and I hate to "slight" them but I think Whitehaven will be on a serious mission to get back to the finals this year.

With maryvilles coaching staff and the explosive athletes they have this year, I wouldn't bet against them in a close game. If it comes down to one play in the playoffs, I'm not betting against the rebs. I think Maryville will be great. Oakland will be awesome also. Maryville has brutal schedule. Catholic, Oakland, Alcoa and Fulton are non district games. In district Bradley County, Cleveland and Ooltewah will be tough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always welcome to head over and spy two upcoming opponents. I,m hearing that Bradley should be very good the season... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know about spying because no one listens to anything I say anyways but this will give me a chance to see Alcoa before the season opener. Trying to figure out how to see all four teams if that is possible before the season starts. Wanted to see Catholic but only interested in seeing a scrimmage not a square dance.

BCsportsfan Posted July 27, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2018 Alcoa looked very impressive against Knox. West. West has a very fast and talented defense with two D1 level defensive ends. Alcoa ran it right down their throat! Wow! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couple of things that stood out to me. #55 and #68 had big days imposing their will on the West D line and LBs. #28 is gonna surprise some folks. #12 is explosive on both sides of the ball. #98 is almost unstoppable. LBs are quick but still learning. #25 will break a couple of long ones this yr. #17 is vastly improved. #15 continues to be dangerous in the open field. #44 is strong at point of attack. #6 and #2 can hurt you in lots of different ways.

You missed the best part of that scrimmage. The 1's came back out at the end. Both Teams got a little chippy. Alcoa ran it right at the West Defense. Two straight TD's for the F5.West was done!
