Opinions may vary lol. I'm an old school 14-10 kinda guy myself. Those days are pretty much gone though. 

I very much dislike those type games. Up tempo offense, no huddle all day long for me. Our last game 8-3 going into the 4th killed me lol would have much rather it had been 35-30 going into the 4th.

I understand, I'm the minority now. That's why you see all the rule changes favoring offenses. Big scores bring in more fans, people love a circus lol. Problem is in my opinion the rule changes are very detrimental to the game as a whole. It hasn't affected high school as much as other levels but is has affected it and it will continue to I'm afraid.

Just more to be seen in a high scoring game. Otherwise all game your watching line play mostly. Fun and all but the object is to score and stop a score etc.

Heard earlier today we had 500 yards rushing this last game? Is this true or some wishful thinking? Was also told Swafford had 300 yards rushing.  Anyone confirm or give actual stats I'd appreciate it.

Paper had "official" stats, just looked at them. Said Swafford was 19 for 295. Team was 465 rushing and 47 passing, 512 total. We had 4 lost fumbles and a blocked punt. Can't beat very many teams turning it over like we have at times this year. Oh penalties were Oneida had 1 for 1 yard, meigs was 10 for 90. Having our own officiating crew paid off again at least in that stat. Still not enough :roflolk:

We played extremely well, but yeah y'all had some mistakes that really hurt as far as turnovers go.

    • I've caught a few games this year. We have a decent team.   I'm hoping this group can qualify for state.  
    • Pirates baseball team is region 3 champs.  Host sectional Wednesday.   Go Pirates!!
    • I am interested in seeing how much they progress in year two under Fitz myself. I do believe they will improve but how much will be the question.
    • Pirates can make a run at the dance for sure.
    • I've always been a football fan first and then if you have a band that's awesome.No question that DB has one of the best bands in the country and the whole region should attend at least one DB game just to see their band. I don't know if Nick Saban could come to Kingsport and build a football program that could match the Dobyns Bennett band's success.That said,as mentioned before, a couple of things would have to change in order for the Tribe to just win a state championship on the field.Besides a program that starts from the peewee teams and goes all the way to J Fred with all coaches and weight training { in time }on the same page. Sometimes it also takes a little luck like the 1998 Vols .There are a lot of great athletes at a lot of big schools around the state and just because you want something doesn't mean your going to build a program like Alcoa has. Yes,start at the bottom and have guys that are quality coaches teaching at every level is 100% the first step. Parents can make it a lot easier by getting their young athletes into an early start with conditioning and weights as well when they are old enough to lift.If your son is a man in the weight room before he gets to DB , then it won't take a "Dobbs" coach to make him competitive against other schools athletes when it comes to strength.
