Underdog teams.

Just wanted to tip a hat at the teams that were underdogs and somehow managed to pull out a victory. For me this is The Tellico Plains Bears. They beat Sequoyah yesterday in the first game of the season with both teams having a new head coach. Tellico had a decent offensive showing in the Jamboree as well against Loudon scoring on the first drive. It's been a long time since I've seen them look good. And I think it's been since 2009 since they beat Sequoyah. They may not ever see this but a congratulations are in order to the new coach and the team.

Warburg didn't pull the upset but played us hard and will surprise a few people.  The QB that didn't play last year due to a season ending injury really impressed me last night.  I had heard a lot about him and he impressed me.  

 

 

 

Who do you play this week.

Wartburg was more of a challenge for us last year then they normally were. We kinda started slow and pulled away late. They had a athletic qb last year, but I think hes graduated.

He was the back up to this kid and he did graduate but this kid is a true QB.  He picked us apart in the second half. My senior year we beat Wartburg only by 6 after being a heavy favorite and we went on to go undefeated.  Maybe this is a Good omen.

I look forward to their region play this year. They beat Cumberland Gap for the 4th spot to make playoffs last year. I wonder if they'll have any luck with the region this year.

I doubt it. I see them 4th again or maybe 3rd but I believe they were improved.  You guys should be the clear favorite then Oneida I do believe.   Warburg could give some teams problems who have weak secondaries.  Its hard to gage teams at this point of the year.  Thinking about coming to see Meigs play this week,  ain't ever had the pleasure.

    • Im asking everyone to keep roy whited and his family in your prayers. Coach whited won back to back state championships at white county in 98-99. He is very well liked and respected in this area. For those of you that dont know he went missing 3 days ago. No one knows where he is. His truck was found in a rural part of the county. Thanks again. We are all very concerned. 
    • West would be a good team to get behind if they can pull it off again like last year. That championship game last year was awesome. 
    • I say that because he stepped out of a MUCH better situation on his own than he would see at least his first 3 years at DCA and it would take at least that much to bring him back to coaching. There are other fish in the sea, but again money talks. Need to fix the girls hoops too. Now I'll try again. Who has Pierce locked in for his staff? Hearing a McGavock man but not the Iceman.
    • I’ve heard mostly good things from the gridiron. Lots of optimism. It sounds like the portal has mostly helped, though there are a few expected defections. Comeback year!
    • Rudesell 1 year at Crockett. Coach Tate 2 weeks a Bradford. South Gibson supposedly going with jcs middle school coach. Which isn’t who I thought would get it, I know the top 2 was between him and Obion girls head coach.
