bounder Posted November 17, 2018 Report Share Posted November 17, 2018 (edited) Well that kinda sucked, oh well let's move on and start again. Wildcat Whoop #### shirts went to some guys that worked hard all year long and deserved them. They went to #2, #6, #55 and # 58. These may be the last Wildcat Whoop #### shirts as I'm getting kinda old and the cold gets worse every year. haha WILDCAT PRIDE Edited November 17, 2018 by bounder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDarkSide Posted November 17, 2018 Report Share Posted November 17, 2018 That was one of the best high school football games I've seen. #8 for OR is the real deal. Glad my Irish boys have that "never die,never quit" attitude. Yes in the 2nd half our OL and DL took over the game. It was shame someone had to lose. Only negative about tonight was. The field was awful. Apparently there was a pipe busted under the field. Which made around the 30yrd line a mud pit. I heard OR is going turf next yr. Hopefully that happens.

I’m sure all this rain we’ve had this week didn’t help either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just think, during the whole summer the debate was when the new field was going in and while Nero Fiddled Rome Burned and they missed a good chance to get that thing installed. Don't know if that would have made a difference in the game but it looks bad on the procrastinators that drug their feet. When I heard the score when OR was up by 19 I wouldn't have thought Catholic would have made a comeback. I turned the game on when getting to my truck after the Maryville game with 6 minutes to go and couldn't believe it. I was really happy for all my friends in OR hoping they would get a chance to make it to the state until I turned the radio on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IrishBBall Posted November 17, 2018 Report Share Posted November 17, 2018 The score turned out to be about the marginI expected but WOW didn’t know we would get there the way we did. As I said earlier, the return of Jones and Jancek would be big...and boy was it. Our line play is a given that few could match so we needed some others to step up. Hard to believe after the first half we would hold OR to 3 first downs. Great adjustments by the coaches and players. Eventually the pounding the opposing line takes starts to show. Gutty effort by the Irish. Tip of the hat to the Wildcats. Mr. Booker and Mr. Graham you all were impressive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can only imagine how hard our kids are taking it right now. That's life for ya though. That's what makes athletics so great, and especially football. This will only make our kids stronger people in life. Sometimes you're just gonna fail in life, but what matters is how you bounce back up after those failures. These types of things make you more resilient and end up paying off in the long run! Catholic winning is one of the best things that could happen to high school football in Tennessee. I am glad they beat Fulton and West also. Now if they beat Central and who ever else on their way for the state Championship their mission will be complete. The residual effects of these victories l hope will be long lasting and not forgotten by OR, Fulton, West, and who ever else they beat on the way to possibly this championship, and their other championships they have won. Hopefully the sting, bad taste in their mouth, pain, agony of defeat etc of OR, Fulton, West, and who ever else Catholic beats will spurn those schools to never make a decision to let recruiting privates play for a championship in the public division ever again. Catholics pay back will come in future years when they have to play in the top private division. They will never win another state championship in football again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certainly glad those schools never have any players that were out of zone..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whytheattitude Posted November 17, 2018 Report Share Posted November 17, 2018 Maybe everyone can stop crying after this year. We are tired of hearing all the whinning also. Good luck in the future to all the schools that have packed their bags and went home. We also return 19 starters next year so maybe we will be ok for one year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not aware of any OOZ kids that we have. I am sure we have over the years, but 98% of our kids pretty much every year are OR kids. Can't speak for the other schools.

It was more intended for Bigtime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mean public schools that charge admission to students that live out of that schools zone for them to attend that school, or students that attend a public school, but don't live in that schools specific school zone boundry.

Maybe next year we talk about it again? Oh, and have fun running all over the state for games. Hope your little precious students don't miss much sleep.
