Last home game in the books - everything on the road from here to the end:

Oakland - can the Blaze put up some points? Can the D show up and slow Oakland down?

Rockvale - Could be a high scoring game, Blaze should come out on top if they can get a stop or two

Cookeville - Blaze should get a win up on the plateau

Siegel - They have a pulse, but Blackman is further along in recovery

If Rockvale and Siegel go as noted, that will earn them a trip to Lebanon most likely, and if that turned out good, it's probably back to Riverdale. Whole lot of ball still to be played, even without my prognostication.

Should be a heck of a match up. for all the reasons above. Blackman does not run the ball a ton, and will use the pass game a whole bunch. I see Ben Marshall being the focus for Rockvales defense whic

I appreciate it.... Blackmans defense has got to show up... You gotta at least slow the run for Rockvale down.... as bad as it has been I would love for these younger boys to get the experience.... it

It seems from just looking at the numbers that defense is the area that needs the most improvement.  I haven't seen them play as I'm an Oakland supporter.  Unless Oakland has a covid forfeit, Blackman's chances are not very good for Friday night we all realize that.   I'm sincerely hoping that all Rutherford Co teams will improve so we can get back to some really meaningful crosstown rivalries.  It seems Siegel may have the hardest road to travel.  Good luck to you guys making the playoffs.  It just gives that much more time to spend with the kids development for next season.

Yes we get whooped .... as does most any team that plays Oakland.  I am hopeful the program will continue to grow and develop. Defensively we have played well in spurts but not for extended periods. I would like to see us get in a spot to play a game or 2 in the playoffs, like you, I believe it will help develop the team and get some more playing  experience .   It would be nice to see the region return to the 2010-2015 form where Every region team was going to be a test .

What are our thoughts on Coach Tygard and staff after 6 games? Obviously gutted out a huge one v Brentwood to start the year and Antioch isn't a great measuring stick. 

I like Coach Tygard. He is creative and takes chances. It has not been the start we would have wanted, but it has fallen in line with the start we expected. I feel like if the support continues inside the building and he is able to keep the strength and conditioning program on track it will help tremendously. He has a good set of Coaches around him with proven records and experience. Blackman will need to find a way to get some of those prospects that are looking to move to Rutherford county to fall in their pack, The QB situation looks solid , if they can put a Teague, Davidson, I-train back in the back field it will help. On the defensive side of the ball they need get some  Dawgs. Blackman usually has one or two , where Oakland has 11... I think in time Blackman will make a turnaround  1-2 more seasons .... If Tygard keeps the buy in from players. parents and the school... it has the makings to do so. Time will tell

I think as long as he keeps the disco ball and strobe light going in the weight room, the kids will come.  The atmosphere is fun from what I hear and that's what makes kids come.  :motorbike:

I caught wind of a rumor from a friend of a guy who's wife I've known since she was little that the Blaze may warm up at a secret offsite facility near a government operation, but close to Oakland.

Actually we are taking 4 busses .. Odd numbers in one even in the other... two busses will warm up at separate places ... the other two busses will be band members disguised as players... they will drive around in circles  to keep anyone who follows them away from our top secret warm up drills.... Its bound to give us the edge.

That's gotta be pure Tygard trickery! Most likely get a flag for illegal use of a bus.

      National middle school Duals

      By DylansDad · Posted

      Can’t believe no one posted on this and gave this team the recognition they deserve!  AAU team Tennessee went to Iowa and done what no other team had ever done and took down Iowa and the strength by holds in AAU nationals!!! Yes McCallie had a solid group of 8th graders and they showed up but we had an AAU team that wrestled their butt off and we didn’t just place in the top 5 … we won the whole dang thing! Yes the NHSCa’s were happening and that may have hurt but never once had TN ever won the national folkstyle duals national championship!!  It was a team effort and some amazing young kids!!!    We are not a fly over state any more… on a side note : we have any even better team for cadet National's team duals in Utah and have a chance to sweep both duals which would be unprecedented!!! However the funds aren’t there and USA isn’t in th position to help these kids get to utah as was AAU that got us to Iowa! Stay tuned for some oppertunities to help make a statement for Tn!!!

      Right cause you know me, you may know my name, what I post on here, what I say on our shows, but you don’t know who I am. And if your class ring doesn’t say Trousdale County high school, quite frankly I don’t care what you say.

      Dont get your reference, but okay. You calling someone a hypocrite is ironic given your track record.

      Not gonna lie, it’s been hard watching my alma mater go through a tough stretch on the grid iron. But this thread is even worse. y’all sound like a bunch of jr high mean girls, popping off, while hiding behind screen names.
