Has a 3A team ever beaten a defending 6A state champ before last night?

When I went to see Alcoa scrimmage Bradley and the way their defensive line totally destroyed the Bears offensive line I sat there and wondered , did Bradley suffer that bad from graduation or has Alcoa went to another level. Well Friday Night answered that question for all of us. If I'm going to lose to Alcoa I want it to be against a team I feel there are very very few teams that could beat them. In my opinion there is only one team in the state that can match up with them on the line of scrimmage either side and that is Oakland but I would give Alcoa the edge on the defense line.. Alcoa has something this year they have never had before and that is depth. From what I see that will be their strength for the near future for the next few years anyway. In the past Maryville just had to many fresh weapons in the end but that changed this past week. Anyone with a thread of knowledge of football from Maryville realizes that. In the last quarter most Maryville fans had no doubt we could pull the ballgame out. I wasn't even worried with four minutes to go but Maryville beat Maryville in the end on this one. Now we will have to move on and not look back in the mirror about what could of been and learn from the mistakes. I have no doubt in my mind at all that Alcoa and Maryville are truly one of the best five teams in the entire state along with Oakland and we have got to see three of them this year.

then U should watch BA sumtime.......Luzianne may b the other

2 great teams played each other Friday night. The accomplishments of both make a victory by either much more significant . For a 3A team to beat a defending 6A state is a huge accomplishment. When that 6A team has Maryville's resume,  its an even bigger accomplishment.  I hope I didnt sound disrespectful to the Maryville players or coaches. Love my Maryville kids. Many of us may have let our emotions get the best of us  a little Friday night, but we really are Blessed to get to enjoy what these teams are doing. 

I gave you a pat on back when you walked bye.

Lausanne isn’t 3a but I would argue their win over Whitehaven last season is just as impressive, if not more so

I wouldn't.

Thank you sir. I was kind of caught up in the moment like a lot of folks were. I have said it before and but I would like to emphasize that I appreciate the Maryville coaches and administration letting the kids enjoy the moment and celebrate. Although I've heard that a few kids and parents from both sides might have stepped over the line. The coaches, players and admin from Maryville were class acts Friday night.

You could very well be right Booger. The thing that set this all in play was that before the season even started it was labeled " We already know who the number 1 team will be but who will be the number 2 team". Oakland with so many starters coming back would be to strong for any team but Maryville knocked them off and Alcoa done the same to us. We'll just never know I guess but I feel safe to say it's nice to see Alcoa ranked number one but with that comes a boat load of haters which their going to find out like we have the last twenty years.

The haters love you when you have done the impossible in their eyes but you keep doing it then they'll hate you. Wonder what ever happened to the guy from out towards Crossville area that hated on you all for so long.

Again, nothing new. Started during our 7 year run. Yawn....He/she is still around. Just ran out of stuff to say...

He/she might be posting under bigsissy50 on one of the other threads.....

If we meet Upperman in the playoffs, which is possible, he'll chime in...before the game at least.

I wish the DB game was this Friday and PF next week. I'd like to see that one.

Whats your thoughts/ insight about the DB/ Alcoa game?

[Red Rebels]

I've not seen them play. I know people are going to compare scores of the Greeneville @ D-B game with the D-B @ Alcoa games.
