TinCanBetsyFan Posted August 23, 2021 Report Share Posted August 23, 2021 How will Elizabethton fare after a historic win to open the 21’ season? Betsy takes on Rhea @ home this week. Score predictions? Game insight? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BetsyCyclones16 Posted August 23, 2021 Report Share Posted August 23, 2021 I know we played well Friday night. Defense was excellent and Rollins was on point throwing dimes as expected. Here’s the thing, we don’t need to be overlooking this Rhea County team as some warmup for GreenEville. They might have been whipped ugly by Alcoa but typically year in year out Rhea is a team that will line up and play anybody and they are tough. I’m sure the guys will prepare accordingly and I’d expect this train to keep rolling. Here’s to safe travels for Rhea County and an injury free game from both teams!

BigDaddyDave Posted August 24, 2021 Report Share Posted August 24, 2021 Of course, most that play Alcoa will not fare well. And the only thing you can do is see how Alcoa was able to defend and attack them. That game is not going to be a good representation of how Rhea County plays. As usual, we need to strike early, sustain drives, pressure their run game and make them one dimensional. And it always starts on the line. Win the trenches. Btw, how did everyone like playing at ETSU? Is it something we would ever consider doing on an annual basis? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing better would have been sitting on the home side in the shade! I’d sit in any weather to watch us beat down Johnson city though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lawnman Posted August 24, 2021 Report Share Posted August 24, 2021 I liked watching the game at ETSU and yes the water prices were ridiculous but as was stated I will go anywhere to watch Betsy beat SH.I was pleased with the way our secondary played because we have some young players out there and SH can throw the ball. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhea Co. Posted August 24, 2021 Report Share Posted August 24, 2021 I know Bryson Rollins is an outstanding athlete from the last couple seasons, but who else do we need to watch for Friday? The four to watch for Rhea is a pair of Sophomores and Seniors. Sophomores Kaleb Martin QB/S and Ethan Davis RB. Senior Preseason All State selections Drew Fisher LB/TE and Jadden Pankey CB/WR/RB I know I said it over on the other post but we are very young, talented but very young.

Jake Roberts at WR who was the MVP in the state championship and our whole defensive line is back from last years team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BetsyCyclones16 Posted August 24, 2021 Report Share Posted August 24, 2021 Looks like game is going to be rescheduled due to COVID with the Rhea team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
