GATNA Posted October 5, 2019 Report Share Posted October 5, 2019 I wasn't at the game and don't know the outcome of the Peabody onside kick or how aggressively Peabody's players pursued the ball. But I'm going to have to disagree with Mr Bigswo's and others evaluation of said onside kick. I am pretty sure most are misinterpreting the reasoning behind the kick. Coach Bowling's teams have onside kicked the ball many times over the years while being up BIG. None more than the 2014 team. We all know what kind of team that was. The reason, I believe, is to give the opposing team favorable field position. An act of Mercy, if you will. You can disagree with me or not, but that is my interpretation of that type of onside kick situation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah I really think he was trying to shorten the game by keeping the clock running under the mercy rule Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is the most respectful Christian man of a coach I have ever been around. He loves those kids and they love him. He has been a great role model for those boys and our community. When we got our buts whipped by you guys, we just took the whooping and went home. You have been a supporter of our team and we respect u and the UC program. Please try to understand the circumstances of those calls. Our guys were getting chopped blocked and head whipped all night. It was time to get out of there and go home. Good luck to UC the rest of the way. Was I sitting near the Gold doctor last night lol l. I’m trying to figure that out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We needed to score again to make it 35 point deficit. So it is relevant we wanted the ball back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are just a bit down on talent compared to years before but that is deceiving because they are in a good region. They are still better than a lot of teams in the state Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smaller schools definitely go through cycles. Right now we are a little down but still going to compete hard every Friday night. Our FB did go for 188 yards last night against the best D we’ve played all year. I think they’ve only had 14 points scored on them all year. Their O is unstoppable.

TennReb31 Posted October 5, 2019 Report Share Posted October 5, 2019 Congratulations to you Peabody guys. I knew yall were good and last night you proved it. I dont think anybody in 2A will touch you. As to the question upstairs of what has happened to us, we just are having a year or 2 of rebuilding time. We still have good players, but we don't have the dominating overpowering ones we have had. So, the methodical clock eating time grinding drives don't happen as consistently as they have in past. They still happen just not as consistently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigsw02 Posted October 5, 2019 Report Share Posted October 5, 2019 Okay, I was a little miffed last night. Not because we were getting beat by a superior team. I made my statement and I stand by it. I just want to say congratulations to Peabody and the fans and friends I have made on the T. I can't see any team beating you. I was offensive in my comments and I apologise. Good luck to the Tidemen the rest of the way. Just keep doing what you do and you will see another championship 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
