Fret not sx, Dem fancy power rating are on your side

Well that’s a relief. With them power ratings and the 177 pts the pats is giving on stars’ line, murvil might be able to keep it close.

I’m sure I’ll be up at 825 on Friday night, but man I’d like to slip down 411 for that single A matchup. That outta be a goodun.

Feeling honest.  Are you feeling honest, or biased? The difference was stunning from my perspective in the stands. But hey, my memory could be flawed. I have no dog in this hunt.  Would actually rather the Rebels win.

Your statement is totally fair, your one that is looking at the picture and not in the picture as others are. I get accused of the same BS on here by the Oompa Loompa Club that can't stand bias observation.  If you don't believe me go back and read a lot of my post about all the mistakes we were making during the season. That being said the best four teams are in the finals and each one has an equal chance to win. Am I scared about Oakland, you better believe it, especially the way we got manhandled in the last game. I think Maryville can win this game if they make no mistakes and correct one part of their game which I won't mention to avoid backlash from the President and V.P. of the Oompa Loompa Club. I will tell you this, I thought Maryville would win against D-B before the game and would be a 28-14 type contest so in reality they over achieved on my scale. I personally think the difference you see in this team and the past are the mistakes but the strong point to me is that they are able to overcome them. My guess is that you don't think they can overcome those mistakes against Oakland. Am I right?

Stunning?.......lol. You do realize they played backups the full 4th quarter, though it didn’t last long since there was a running clock. 
much like last year....this team is built much different than teams of the past. The difference in this team is they may actually have the line to complete against this physical and dominant Oakland team. Maryville has been mostly void of deep lines for a few years.....but that is about to change. Scheming around team weaknesses will not be as critical after next season.

i think this Maryville team plays with Oakland on Friday night. It should be a competitive game.

I agree ML. 
While teams like Oakland are busy trying to put 80 points up against mostly inferior teams, Murvil usually calls off the dogs at 28 points and gets the “twos” a lot of valuable experience that pays off NOW. 
The more I see, the more I think that this Rebel team can not lose if they don’t turn the ball over. 
That is the only thing that kept Alcoa close this year.

Good lord Barn....this is a game played by teenagers. You are critical of everything then play the victim because others are critical of you? This is not that serious...

Edit....it's unbiased Barn. Only us Kool-Aid drinkers are biased.

Only people that  make a comment like this are the ones who just look at a headline. In most games the reserves got as much snaps as the starters did

    • A complete cultural change happened at Greeneville and the administration and community opened up their checkbooks.  What a lot of people don't know is Ballard was Zeller's OC for many years and stopped coaching for two years because Zeller and Ballard didn't see eye to eye on some things.  Zeller lead Greeneville to it's first ever Semi Final appearance in 2000 and lost 28-12 at Maryville and had them in the Quarter Finals in 2002 and 2003.  Z was a great coach but lost some control when it came to making workouts mandatory. (He learned from that Mistake and it was at LC when i coached with him.).  Z was let go going into my Senior Year and was replaced by Steve McCurry who was the one that turned the program around.  Steve had won a 4a state championship at AC Reynolds in Asheville and made the administration completely redo the weight room with new equipment, had a football period at the end of the school day to lift, started devil camp, and brought in coaches like Danny Bentley (Still the OL coach), Ballard as the OC, Cody Baugh (QB coach and still there), and even Spradlen who is Greeneville's head coach now as the DB's Coach.  McCurry only coached for two seasons at Greeneville and took a team that had a losing record the year before and finished my Senior Year making it to the Quarters and having a 10-3 record and then followed it up with a Semi Final appearance the next year with an 11-3 record and back to back conference championships.  Loved McCurry to death but the recession hit and the story i heard was he was still buying new equipment for the team that the Principal didn't authorize and his response was "I don't answer to you and only to Niswonger and Bewley" (Two huge donors).  That was it for him and they Promoted Ballard shortly after that.   Greeneville had always been relevant ever since the the late 70's under Coach Fred Sorrell's.  Since Sorrell's took over in 1977 Greeneville overall winning percentage is over 76%.  The biggest reason people might not have thought Greeneville was "Good" until Ballard was Greeneville always played up Classification wise and could never get over the hump. (When there were 3 classifications we played 3a, when it went to 5 we played 4a).  Greeneville is the largest its ever been with 953 students and where playing teams 2 or 3 times there size back in the day (I had a little over 800 kids in the school when i graduated in 2008).  Other teams always would know they would be sore after a game but depth took over and never won a Championship until Greeneville played in the classification the TSSAA actually assigned them. You had names like Dustin Moore (1993 Mr Football for 3a and who Phillip Fulmer said was one of the greatest athletes he ever recruited), James "Mud Turtle" Mayes, Brigham Lyons, Byron Gillespie, Frankie Debusk (National Champion Qb at Furman with GQ), Jasmine Lowery, Cody Baugh, The Greenway Brothers, Joe Watson (Furman), etc.  Now the cultural is from the Pee Wee league up and you grow up as a young kid wanting to wear the Greene and White.  Here is a really good link when it comes to anything Greeneville Football related. https://greenevillefootball.com/   I also don't coach anymore.  Z told me i was to smart with how the school systems are ran these days and ended up going into real estate in Knoxville which has been a great decision for my life.
    • Yes, they will. I'm wondering what kinds of strides Sale Creek will make heading into the second season under Coach Fitz.
    • No yellow stripes on the rug last night. Biggest crowd I’ve seen at 825 since the alco debacle. 
    • I know most Pirate starters were seniors last year. Im not sure how accurate it is but someone said we only have 3 seniors. That Prep team will probably make some noise this coming season too.
