Mustangs have had great consistency, great community support and way too many wins to leave out of top 5. The consistency over the years is the most noble and most impressive. I agree. They have been very consistent. Just seem to come up short when they have been overwhelming favorites and are behind the others in the trophy case. But I agree they have been more consistent than some of the ones I put above them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stacmot Posted July 5, 2022 Report Share Posted July 5, 2022 (edited) Just looking at all-time wins: Top ten rural West Tennessee teams with the most all time wins.

Played in 4 title games and never was mercy ruled in any of them. And never played in the weakest classification in the west.

Lake Co has usually played bigger schools in the past.And the powerhouse private schools.Lost with about 20 seconds to play to a private school that went on and won the state.And could possibly had about 3 or 4 more more state titles if not for a team named Alcoa in state championship and losing players to Dyer Co and Dyersburg.Had Abdre Flowers stayed home and not went to Dyer Co and broke most of Dyer Co rushing records,can say they'd had a couple more titles.
