FLASHBACK: 8/22/19 Greeneville @ Powell

Recommended Posts

The GREENE went down for the first time in 30-something games to the Powell team.

But does that game really matter now?    Powell has to be considered a very serious contender in 5A this year.    Does that mean Greeneville is still as good as advertised?    Does Greeneville have any signature wins yet?    Their wins since the Powell game have come against mostly teams with losing records:   Boone (2-4), Union Co. (3-4), Science Hill (2-5), Austin East (4-3), Sullivan Central (1-5).     Is Greeneville the real deal this year, or have they just played weak opponents thus far?

Note to AC fans:   This is not a "let's bash Greeneville" type of thread.     I would just like to see some open discussion, X's and O's, coaching strategies, matchups, etc.    Will this week's game against South (4-2) be the real test?     Or does that not happen until the Elizabethton game?

Question Blazer..... who was Elizabethton’s signature win? Cherokee who beat no win Morristown East by 4 or William Blount who beat hapless Hertage. Maybe it was Science Hill who they traded TDs with throughout the game.

Your response might help with the Greeneville perspective. The loss to Powell probably says more about GHS than our wins at this point.

Elizabethton has beaten:  Science Hill (2-5), Sullivan East (0-6), Boone (2-4), Grainger (3-3), Cherokee (6-1), William Blount (2-5).     Not exactly a bunch of teams > .500 is it?

That is sort of my point.... Greeneville has only played one good team, same for Elizabethton.    So how good are both of these teams?     Is it just a case of lousy scheduling against weak opponents?     Oct 18 will be a barn-burner

Fair enough. Other than Cherokee is not a very good team. But they have a winning record. SH would dust them. Jokingly our records look like The Anderson County’s schedule that we tease them about. (Maybe not joking)

Some things are the same this year when it comes to who are the best 4A teams  in east Tennessee.The difference  from  last year is this.There was no question that the Devils were going to win state last year unless something went  wrong.It's not just getting past AC and Elizabethton this year.You have to wonder who else around the state will bring it to the table.Also,this is a very strong Devil team but there is not nearly as much room for mistakes and  they will have to play  well against Elizabethton,AC and whoever to make it three in a row.As for Friday night,it would surprise me if the devils don't take care of business quickly.

The Mavs have the 15th hardest schedule this years in comparison to Greeneville at maybe 40. This is a major difference for AC if Greeneville plays the Mavs.  The Mavs will be awesome next hear but they are not waiting around for next year they want the gold ball this year.  And they will take it this year and ask questions later.

There are a lot of factors  .Injuries like a couple of years ago for AC at Greeneville during the game can be major.How teams matchup is always a question.I remember in 2009,there was no way South was going to beat TH in the playoffs.Boone upset TH and South went on to the semi's .

How do you get that the Mav's have the 15th hardest schedule? (Please don't tell me from Coach T because it only factor's in Win/loss not actually who you have played).  Both teams loss was to their toughest competition in Powell.  Greeneville loss by 2 AC loss by 12 the following week.
