PurplePanther Posted July 5, 2022 Report Share Posted July 5, 2022 Board has been stale so here is a little spice. I put all D2 schools in one pot: 1. LA - no question 2. McCallie - reloaded 3. CPA - still well coached 4. MBA - solid on both sides of the ball. Defense will be good 5. BA - massive young O-line 6. MUS - returns solid Defense 7. Baylor - decent returning team with a new college HC 8. Knox Catholic 9. Lausanne 10. Christian Brothers I couldn’t justify Pope Prep to myself to be in top 10. Loaded skill positions but lost there entire O-line I believe. I wanted DCA to make it because they have a great coach, but don’t see them beating any team listed. Now let’s here it!

BobbyB Posted July 5, 2022 Report Share Posted July 5, 2022 I like the list maybe change order in a few spots and Pope losing coach going forward bigger deal than most think. I'd have no problem putting DCA in at 10. BA new big QB going set the tone for the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theawesomebro Posted July 5, 2022 Report Share Posted July 5, 2022 looks right to me. LA plays CPA and knox catholic plus CPA plays BA, MBA and oakland so we should get some good head to head info. I would love to hear thoughts on an overall top 10 for the state. LA is ranked above oakland in at least one preseason national poll but I might give the nod to oakland then LA since they won last year. haven't seen any other TN teams mentioned nationally, so maryville, mccallie...

But they do have a new OC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ranked Riverdale because of the transfer and new OC. The QB can sling it. LA was scary last year with 3 QBs that all could have started elsewhere.

We get to see 3 of these top 7 in a month or so. This should be very interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO, I think LA is a pretty clear cut favorite as the top team in the state. Oakland will be solid on defense and up front, but hard to replace the kind of talent they lost to graduation. Given the schedule they have, 2-3 losses wouldn't surprise me. Don't even consider them the best team in 6A at this point Edited July 15, 2022 by MidTennFootball Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
