Oakland invite Blackman over for a lumber party

Recommended Posts

Oakland has had its way with most everyone they faced this season except Maryville. Blackman has played well against good competition and shown they can't be taken too lightly. This game will have plenty of folks "laying the wood "on either side of the ball.  While Oakland has been so talented and well coached, they come into this game with several starters hurt or out, Blackman on the other hand is healthy with just  a few bruises and scratches.  That being said what  are your thoughts on how this game shakes out? Will the injuries on Oakland side give Blackman any help? Is it enough to matter? I personally think the Blaze are playing better ball every week and should make a game of it. Especially if all the offensive weapons are working.

Who all are the patriots missing?

I wish Blackman would come out and shock the state, but I don't see that happening Friday night. It won't be as bad as the Riverdale game for sure, but I still think Oakland wins by at least 14

It will be a good measuring stick for Blackman.

I would say that they are at least 3-4 touchdowns better than Riverdale.

But I also think that a Oakland 14-point win sounds about right.

I am not sure who all is hurt, but the coach mentioned on a coaches show that they had several hurt and were running 2 and 3 deep i n some positions. 

So I went back and watched the game and what I saw was Justin Jefferson go out, Joseph Anderson go back out ,  Mookie Wilson, Xavier Meyers, Tim Panell were out and banged up. Possibly questionable for this game. And the kicker is playing with an injured hip... may not change the outcome. But I think the Blaze will give them all they want .

So i was updated on injury list and Wilson is questionable and Meyers will likely play. However I did forget that aside from Justin Jefferson being out, Aaron Moore is also out. In Kreager's picks, he mentioned that Oakland was battle tested while Blackman was not. I might be off, but who Other than Maryville has Oakland been tested with? Independence (flip the coin) ranked 27th in the state and not very consistent. Republic (enough said) and Riverdale who is young and struggling to put together a team  all three have losing records . On the other hand Blackman has faced Hendersonville 4-1 ranked 10th Smyrna  former top 10 still top 20 Florence Alabama #17 in 7A Alabama  and Coffee county(no benefit) Siegel  I think they may be sleeping on Blackman a little. No doubt we will have to have a great game and execute well, but I think little to no credibility is being given to the offensive options and the fact that the defense limited one of the states top backs in Watkins to under 100 yds and allowed 148 yards total offense I think the defense may be slightly under rated. Of course I am picking my Blaze I always do... but I believe they have the tools to get the job done

    • This whole situation is bonkers. You don’t just kick your star player off the team just because you heard them say the F word; the coach definitely had something against the player, or somebody definitely did. Also, nobody has brought up the idea that the school blackmailed the college to get the college to withdraw the scholarship offer, not to mention that the coach who kicked her off is no longer even with the program; they were fired. I think this is a pretty easy lawsuit. I don’t know if she should deserve that much money, but I think she should get enough money for a full-ride scholarship if she cannot get one after this situation.
    • Oh yeah, I’m sure you are different people just always on the same thread for some reason, always agreeing with each other, perhaps just a bunch of dorks who would like to ###### and moan about high school football coaches do a lot of other students, so you make a football team and get a yell at them. When they do something wrong, but I’m sure you don’t like that, do you?   and I’m sure I’m aware of where you get information. A teacher who was on the coaching staff but was fired after the new coaching and staff came in and realized he actually had to start taking his assistant job a little bit more seriously than just wanting to make a little extra cash on the side, hardly even showing up to most practices, should’ve left with his buddy to go to Farragut. I’m sure he could get him a defensive coaching job, but I doubt he will be there in three years. Looking at the way Farragut is currently going.
    • It may be hard to believe but there’s more people than me that think you guys are a bunch of losers.    I’m sure the coaching staff, yourself included, cursed at a bunch of high school students. Nobody could name more than 3 coaches on staff due to the constant turnover. 
    • That's complete BS.  Nobody at ACHS has access to CHS student records unless a transfer is made from CHS to ACHS.  
    • Trez's last scandal has died down, so I guess this is there opportunity to be the best 4A team playing in 2A a la Sissy MTN.  At least they won't be in a Z-district with 1a teams in the regular season.
