If you guys are okay with an outsider offering a comment...   Both Alcoa and Maryville have set the bar so high over the years that anything less than perfection in every game has the potential to be

That maybe true but I was basing that on record / history. I do find it odd that In recent history they never play each other past week 4.  Why is that? 

Not really sure. It used to be played in October. I’d rather move it to cooler weather. However, if you have numbers, I’d say Murvul is fine with playing it in 90-95 degree temps. It is what it is….

Also I did recognize that alcoa took a play from the Whitehaven program and rushed the  Maryville side after the game ended. That is really classless imo. But I guess you just have to consider the source. 

They rush to our side when they win. I remember several years ago, they came over with a stuffed raccoon on a plaque. I guess if you can dish it, you should be able to take it…

Agreed. However, Oakland is another story. I hope it comes down to that. However, at Oakland will be another level. Hope I’m wrong. Hope we get to see! :thumb:

Yes Oakland has seemed to be rutherford counties answer to the Evil Empire. I guess when you can have players play for a team but attend a different school and even openly recruit players form other surrounding  schools with no punitive actions from the TSSAA just to put together a team to beat maryville.

Just about every team who’s relevant in the state of TN has followed suit….

An extremely long one.  12-2 absolute best they will get 

I see what you’re saying. However, if they get improved play out of the qb and can keep Vaughn healthy, I don’t think making the semi at Oakland (if Oakland makes it?) is out of reach. Murvul is Murvul. This game will make them better. Just have some work to do. Their schedule allows for that imho. We shall see…

You're like a little Child , no one from Maryville is Cocky or arrogant like you were a couple years ago when you talked smack all year long only to disappear for a full year because you looked so foolish . Maryville has up and down years just like every team , but the difference is with Maryville even on a down year they are dangerous . 

Unlike a few of my fellow Maryville fans I'm not ready to jump off a Bridge anytime soon . To be honest I had a few very positive thoughts about the Game last night . Our Defense played much better than they did against Farragut . We buckled down and stopped Alcoa several times and we definitely had a chance to win the Game at the end , a TD and extra point would of had us at 21-20 . Noah Vaughn proved once again that he is one of the best Running Backs to ever play at Maryville high School ... he was the best player on that field last night ... We definitely Blew up at the end of the Game and it wasn't just one player , it was a total team fiasco including the Coaches . Our Coaches have a great record of usually pulling the right strings in situations like this and definitely deserve the benefit of the Doubt and I think we will learn from our mistakes . Being positive about your Football team , especially when it's Maryville high School , doesn't mean you have your head in the sand or don't understand our team might have some weaknesses ... It just means as a Maryville fan we have seen some remarkable comebacks during the last 20 plus years ... to be honest , I haven't thought Maryville was going to lose a game beforehand for over 20 years . 

In 2010 Alcoa beat us and Maryville went on to win the 6A State Championship that year . Losing to Alcoa is something that nearly every other team in our State would also do ... nothing to be ashamed of . Being a winner isn't just how you react after a win ... being a real Champion is how you react to a loss . A hater like Mjgoldiebear will never understand that as a Maryville fan some of my proudest moments were when we actually lost a game . I've always mentioned how proud it's made me watching our boys run out on the field as a team and proudly hold that second place trophy up in a State Championship game . I've seen other teams react horribly , throwing helmets , not even going to get that trophy . 

To the Alcoa fans , Congratulations on your great Victory and thanks again for creating another Awesome Chapter in the Maryville Alcoa Rivalry . It truly was a great game and I must say for anyone who wasn't there , the atmosphere before the Game was completely off the Charts ! Standing room only and packed 10 deep in some places , and the Army Golden Knights show was one of the most spectacular scenes I've ever witnessed on that Football field , the members carrying the Alcoa and Maryville flags and then the Game ball was Amazing !!

I thought we were frands :(

      Cummings named Coach at LC.

      By Swipes · Posted

      A complete cultural change happened at Greeneville and the administration and community opened up their checkbooks.  What a lot of people don't know is Ballard was Zeller's OC for many years and stopped coaching for two years because Zeller and Ballard didn't see eye to eye on some things.  Zeller lead Greeneville to it's first ever Semi Final appearance in 2000 and lost 28-12 at Maryville and had them in the Quarter Finals in 2002 and 2003.  Z was a great coach but lost some control when it came to making workouts mandatory. (He learned from that Mistake and it was at LC when i coached with him.).  Z was let go going into my Senior Year and was replaced by Steve McCurry who was the one that turned the program around.  Steve had won a 4a state championship at AC Reynolds in Asheville and made the administration completely redo the weight room with new equipment, had a football period at the end of the school day to lift, started devil camp, and brought in coaches like Danny Bentley (Still the OL coach), Ballard as the OC, Cody Baugh (QB coach and still there), and even Spradlen who is Greeneville's head coach now as the DB's Coach.  McCurry only coached for two seasons at Greeneville and took a team that had a losing record the year before and finished my Senior Year making it to the Quarters and having a 10-3 record and then followed it up with a Semi Final appearance the next year with an 11-3 record and back to back conference championships.  Loved McCurry to death but the recession hit and the story i heard was he was still buying new equipment for the team that the Principal didn't authorize and his response was "I don't answer to you and only to Niswonger and Bewley" (Two huge donors).  That was it for him and they Promoted Ballard shortly after that.   Greeneville had always been relevant ever since the the late 70's under Coach Fred Sorrell's.  Since Sorrell's took over in 1977 Greeneville overall winning percentage is over 76%.  The biggest reason people might not have thought Greeneville was "Good" until Ballard was Greeneville always played up Classification wise and could never get over the hump. (When there were 3 classifications we played 3a, when it went to 5 we played 4a).  Greeneville is the largest its ever been with 953 students and where playing teams 2 or 3 times there size back in the day (I had a little over 800 kids in the school when i graduated in 2008).  Other teams always would know they would be sore after a game but depth took over and never won a Championship until Greeneville played in the classification the TSSAA actually assigned them. You had names like Dustin Moore (1993 Mr Football for 3a and who Phillip Fulmer said was one of the greatest athletes he ever recruited), James "Mud Turtle" Mayes, Brigham Lyons, Byron Gillespie, Frankie Debusk (National Champion Qb at Furman with GQ), Jasmine Lowery, Cody Baugh, The Greenway Brothers, Joe Watson (Furman), etc.  Now the cultural is from the Pee Wee league up and you grow up as a young kid wanting to wear the Greene and White.  Here is a really good link when it comes to anything Greeneville Football related. https://greenevillefootball.com/   I also don't coach anymore.  Z told me i was to smart with how the school systems are ran these days and ended up going into real estate in Knoxville which has been a great decision for my life.

      Yes, they will. I'm wondering what kinds of strides Sale Creek will make heading into the second season under Coach Fitz.

      Who vandalized Maryville's Football Field?

      No yellow stripes on the rug last night. Biggest crowd I’ve seen at 825 since the alco debacle.

      I know most Pirate starters were seniors last year. Im not sure how accurate it is but someone said we only have 3 seniors. That Prep team will probably make some noise this coming season too.
