Same here.     Boone always exits early but it's still fun to get a post-season game and sometimes 2.      It's weird man, something about going 10-0 for the first time just makes me not care that much about the playoffs like I usually do.   It's like even if we lose the first game it has still been a fantastic season for Boone.

Stay on the Boone thread!!!!!

Certainly true for the players, but in reality there is no chance Rebs lose this game.  No offense intended to DCHS, but in my opinion, this will be  running clock # 7 Fri. night.  This game will be the classic example of a too many classifications 1 vs 4 first round  match up.  Sad thing is DCHS will lose a whole bunch of money making the trip down here to get walloped.  And West will be lucky to break even because DC won't bring many fans that distance, and T$$AA takes half the gate.  Oh well, that's the current system.  Go Rebs!

I hope the West fans turn out because that atmosphere against Maryville was electric...not saying this game is of that magnitude, but it was great to see the stands filled up on both sides and even in the endzone with overflow on the track. It should make the players even more fired up. Honestly this is the best student support Ive seen all year, even for the road games.

The Boone thread is dead, there are no Halls fans here I guess, plus it's just so much fun to hijack another team's thread haha.       Okay seriously Crockett has a very unenviable task this Friday but you guys just have to show up and give them your best game.    Can't hold anything back..... trick plays, go for 2, onside kicks, whatever it takes.   Even at that it will take West becoming unglued but anything is possible.    Wishing Crockett the best

I was afraid that West had speed to burn.      So there is pretty much no way to contain that speed, a little like the Heisenberg uncertainty principle....

It’s over before the charter bus turns onto State Route 34.

Ha good one.  Actually I think it's over before the bus ever gets off of the frontage road.

I love Crockett but too much going on down there right now.

By everyone's rendering Knox West is invincible, the team to beat in 5A.    The only close game they had was a 29-26 squeaker against Alcoa.      So what was it that Alcoa brought to the table that pushed West to the limit??    Oh wait, never mind..... it's just Alcoa being Alcoa....

Maryville vs West was close. It was 24-18 with a few minutes to go till West scored to make the Final Score 31-18.

What were some of the things Maryville did to keep it so close?

Forced some turnovers and ran the ball well. Maryville had no answer for Latham

I just looked the stats up for this game. What in the world was going on for Maryville on special teams?  Three 6 point touchdowns and no additional points?

West will roll through this round and probably all the way to the semifinals, when it may see Pal again. West 42-14
