I expect Betsy to win this one. Not sure how the Yellar Jackets are this year but to beat a good Haywood team is big.

I will say Springfield may have the edge as far as coming in under the radar and as well as they have been there before even though they lost. 

 

We will show up and play our best.

Let’s get this started. Who you got and why?

Everyone and their mother will pick against the Yellow Jackets when we play the Carter Co all star team next week, and rightfully so. They are undefeated for a reason. Most people have picked against us in the last 3 rounds. That's alright. None of us on these boards will decide the outcome of any of the championship games. Good Luck Yellow Jackets!!!

This team probably isn’t as good as the 2017 team that lost to Greeneville, but the overall defense is better and it has as much if not more heart than that team did.  One thing that may not mean much, but it can’t hurt, is that Springfield has been here before.  Don’t know much about Elizabethton except what I read on here and Twitter. I know they are extremely talented and undefeated, and beating Greeneville twice in the same year says enough, even if Greeneville isn’t quite as good as the past few years they are still stout. I will guarantee one thing now, if Betsy does win it won’t be 56-7 like it was against Greeneville.

I think this game will be a defensive battle. Penalties and turnovers will be huge in this one. Cyclone “D” had two picks against the Knights and they are averaging a pick per game. Staying focused and playing physical defense will be the blueprint. Special teams play may very well swing this one.

I like how once we find success everybody starts throwing around this carter county all star team nonsense, the best programs always attract the best athletes. Do you actually think that per say Alcoa just by the luck of the draw gets championship caliber talent each year? Greeneville has been on a stellar run for years and deserves much respect but dont you think having those gold balls attracts athletes to a winning program?

    • While I appreciate being credited with multiple accounts, I have to say that is not true. Will you please report back to your people that I am not someone who provides sharp, witty banter, but rather someone who is putting the shoe on the other foot for some people that have been repeatedly bashing others here and in real life for the past few years? Everything that I have stated has been backed by factual evidence or public record, so no need to be sharp and witty. 
    • Yes this process is moving slower than I would have expected
    • also was told coady auston applied, he served as defensive coordinator for greenfield under don pitt several years ago before going to Obion county  
    • TSSAA restrictions for hiring non-faculty coaches have been removed for over a year at this point. In the past a non-faculty person had to be "grandfathered" by being an assistant coach for five years, being fingerprinted, and having a background check run per TSSAA rules... since those were rescinded, the board of directors for the school district are responsible for any/all restrictions on hiring non-faculty personnel. I guess what I'm saying to you is that if you really wanted what you posted, it's already possible as long as your local BOE will allow for it.
    • stop it, rlh. you’re gonna get me all misty eyed and sentimental.    i see seven fairly regularly. ….but slim shady, that’s like spotting bigfoot on main street. you just hope he doesn’t spot you.
