What about Oliver Springs? They don't show a game this week? Not sure if TSSAA will allow 11 games in regular season since that appears to be their only bye week.

Wouldn't be allowed.  One can only 'play' 10 regular season games.  I believe if one of their prior games had been a forfeiture then they'd be allowed to schedule another (10th) game.

Looking at the Section AL schedule seems they have 10 games and Sept 25 is their scheduled open date.  It wouldn't hurt to call as the first game listed on their schedule (8/21) could have been a scrimmage?  Did Alabama high schools have any scrimmages before the season?

Makes sense.

I thought y’all had an opening at one point and was willing to come play us

We were the cause of an opening - we had a COVID case diagnosed the night of the Howard game. We could not agree with DCA on a reschedule date - took it as a COVID loss, and they were able to schedule Summertown.

Appears DCA has another COVID cancel from a Davidson County school for October 2, looks like they have scheduled the Memphis Nighthawks for a home game.

I have mentioned to our coaches about the possibility of checking with SP to replace one of our 4A games (just finished home & home on both) for the next two years. Trying to sell the easy drive, good fan bases, good facilities

Another option for SP would be to see if our game against Meigs could be moved up to Oct 2.  That would open up Oct 9 for us and would also give Meigs County 2 weeks to prepare for their all important region showdown against Oneida.

Interesting.

What sucks is it appears Copper Pan is going to be sitting in Copper Hill this weekend.

Guess I'll be watching Seq and Bledsoe on The CW this week.  Of coarse I have spectrum cable.

That has been discussed. They aren’t able to move their game.

The next game we have will be against Oneida after you guys. It's our last home game of the year. Will be senior night.

Thanks.

I'm sure everything is being looked at.  As for me, I'm just in here thinking out loud.
