MidTennFootball Posted October 6, 2020 Report Share Posted October 6, 2020 Year over year, HC is going to be at a natural disadvantage because there just aren't that many West TN voters. Whitehaven faces the same problem in 6A Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whitehaven faces the same problem in 6A that and the've only won 2 state championships ever. And they lost to beech that lost to powell. Hardly feel like they're being slighted...

KnoxVil Posted October 6, 2020 Report Share Posted October 6, 2020 I’m just curious, at 5-2 where do you put HC? I know they are always a tough out but what team(s) in front them do you pencil HC in front of? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, using a state titles for justification on how you rank a team is pretty silly, especially given that every team in only has a couple, if any at all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NOt saying it's right, but it happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I'm saying I love where our team is football wise. Come playoffs we are gonna make some noise. Bank on that! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Mx Prps has it closer to correct. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're going to keep doing what we are doing and prove ourselves in the playoffs. I definitely agree with you. I just haven’t seen any of the East ten teams to know who is a pretender and who is a contender. I have an idea.

I just haven’t seen any posters of the East ten teams to know who is a pretender and who is a contender. I have an idea. My contenders/pretenders: Powell and West - Contenders. They look like the best in the east. Should be a fun game Thursday night! Central - Contender. They've taken a step back offensively, but they are still really good on defense and special teams. They look like a quarterfinalist right now. South Doyle - Contender. They've improved a ton offensively since the beginning of the season. Coupled with their defense, they should be able to make a quarterfinal run. Carter - Pretender. Overrated and likely a product of their schedule. I think Central will handle them on Friday night. Rhea County - Pretender. Also a product of their schedule. They're a good team, but not #6 in the state. Red Bank should beat them on Friday night. Even if they beat RB and go 10-0, I don't see them getting past Powell or West in the 2nd round of the playoffs. Region 1 - Pretenders. Oak Ridge - Sleeper, potential contender. They've got a LOT of pieces. If these guys can put it all together, they could really create some havoc in the post-season.
