I don't know if anyone can, or can't beat them. Truth is Oakland lost a whole lot of their offense and some big shoes on the defensive side oft the ball. Oakland will be Oakland, but I don't know if they will be the same Oakland we have seen the last 3 years. As far as Maryville they may well be the top team coming out of the east, but before I go betting the house I might wanna see a game or two. You never know what this season might bring . I'd rather sit than set, but you never answered the question. Oakland and Maryville lose a lot every year, but still seem to outclass the rest of the east every year. Who will have a reasonable chance to unseat either based on what their team has, and not who Oakland and Murvl graduated?

I guess we have a whole season to figure that out, unless you think the rest of 6A in East might as well "SIT" and let them play the Championship game now. Heck... Lets just have 1 game a season from now on....All the other schools can divert their time money and attention to underwater basket weaving.

GWAVE1 Posted July 16, 2022 Report Share Posted July 16, 2022 I do not agree with quite a bit in this “preview”. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mondo44 Posted July 16, 2022 Report Share Posted July 16, 2022 Doesn’t look like a lot of research was done on the non RUCO and WILCO regions. Just like last year a team from region 5 will play a WILCO team in the state semis. Beech, Gallatin, or Hendersonville will be that team. The thing that helps the 3 Sumner Co. teams is that they all play tough schedules unlike some of the other regions. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could argue that not alot of research was done on RuCo either; I'd be surprised if Oakland goes 10-0 given their schedule Edited July 16, 2022 by MidTennFootball Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think some regional games will be closer than last year as well... may not lose them but will be tighter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I appreciate the effort he put in, I just don't think Oakland is the best team in 6A ( at this point) and not going to go 10-0 with the schedule they have. Bradley Central at 4 I have disagreements with. Would probably flip Ravenwood and Oakland Honestly Ravenwood has lost a lot from last year. They lost all of their receivers, a coupe of really good offensive linemen, and a lot on defense. They do return their QB and both RB's. I think Independence will be the best team in WILCO this year. 6a overall is probably more wide open this year than normal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would need to see how Indy looks in actual pads under a new coach before making a prediction Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MRA was pretty young but Oakland was able to control the line of scrimmage and alot of those same OL return. Don't play Lipscomb, it's CPA, which will always be a tough team to deal with. Blackman, Riverdale and CPA in consecutive weeks will be a challenge. Going into the season, Lebanon is the team that Im most worried about as far as the playoffs go. I'd love to see a matchup with them and Blackman, there would be no shortage of points Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
