Covington went to war in 6 inches of mud and rain for 4 qtrs vs Stratford.  If you havent seen Stratford dont comment.  Size and athletes playing a role of Cinderella with confidence and momentum.  The Chargers showed up.   They will show up Saturday.  It will be a great game.  Our game is based on quickness and speed.  Friday we played smashmouth.  Sat it will be nice to stand and run.

Not to mention the recovery of an onside kick would have somehow magically won the game. It takes a whole lot of effort to score on Alcoa and there is no guarantee they would have scored to even tie t

I loved it!! Smashmouth football at it's best. We played in the exact same conditions at home in a semi-final match in 2000 with Jackson Southside. I wonder if anyone remembers that. Of course, the next week, we didn't show up...ha! I'm sure this Charger team will!

I just watched last year's game again. Here's what I saw:

At the end of the 1st quarter 7-7.

In the second quarter Covington throws a pick straight to Warwick. Results in a short field TD for Alcoa. Covington offense stopped by Alcoa. Alcoa drives inside 10 yard line, held 3 downs by Covington, Alcoa kicks a field goal. 17-7 Alcoa at end of 2nd quarter.

Covington takes the 2nd half kickoff and drives for a TD. No more scoring on the quarter. 17-14 Alcoa at end of 3rd Quarter.

Alcoa drives inside 10 yard line early in 4th quarter. Covington D holds them 4 downs and takes over on downs. Covington tries a reverse on the goal line, fumbles into the end zone and Alcoa covers for a TD to go up 24-14. That basically decided the game.

That's why I think Covington can play with Alcoa this year if we avoid turnovers. Take away the first interception (throw the ball away) and the gift fumble in the end zone (even if we just punt it out of there the way our D was playing) and you have a different ball game.

      We could sure use some math teachers country wide. Ever go into a store or restaurant and the bill comes to $9.97 and you give them a ten dollar bill and 2 pennies because you wanted a nickle back and then the meltdown starts and the next thing two more people have to come and help figure it out and the place comes to a complete halt. I see this everyday and it's a sad representation of all these schools allowing these kids out the door to get shortchanged the rest of their life.

      Stars, I heard we were searching far and wide for some math teachers. Any chance their kids bench press or 40 times are getting checked? LOL I’ve heard good things from 825.

      I think it was expected. “Bad” luck I guess to get a couple difference maker QBs in the same class. I thought the decision was made a little early myself, but they were struggling offensively last year.  I assume the running quarterback alco had last year would be a senior this fall, and the transfer would start the following two years in addition to getting a ton of playing time this year. Maybe he waits two yrs, but I doubt it. The kid is good. So is the one who stayed.

      I'm from Cloudland and we've never played a sectional game.  We need to win tomorrow night to avoid that bus ride.  Us and north greene can play with you guys so I'm expecting good games whoever the matchup is.
