I definitely think coalfield gets by Unaka and probably Cloudland in the East.

I agree with this.

South Pittsburg is probably a 2 TD underdog to them on a wet field. At home, at Gordonsville, or any other field. 
 

I’ve got someone in the west winning in Chattanooga by 3-4 scores. 

That's sort of what they said last year

Well Gordonsville lost to H20 and Clay close so they are solid on paper. Should be an interesting game and a test for S Pitt. I remember Gordy beating FC at home during the season when they won the State. But S Pitt beating them 31-0 at Gordy in the playoffs. So apparently anything is possible. An interesting matchup for sure. Should decide the east rep in Chattanooga. Nothing to worry about east of Knoxville this year. Cloudland is down but still alive. 

There were some kids on that Fayetteville team that missed the game vs Gordonsville that year as I remember.  Some were ejected from the Cornersville game? Also Fayetteville had some that became eligible around playoff time?

If it's a wet sloppy field & a power game is what's needed to prevail, then we are in trouble.   I believe we have to win a shoot-out.

Very true. They also said a team from the East had no shot at winning a gold ball and look how that turned out. Never know how November and the first weekend of December turns out until you line it up and play

You are correct. I totally forgot that. Yes that probably contributed to the loss. You have a very sharp memory. Mine not so much.

about 6 or 7 of the starters were out against Gordonsville. and yes, a couple seniors transferred to City, sat out the whole regular season, and started the first round of the playoffs.

This will be a one score game either way. Wet field or not, both teams will give it all they got. Gordonsville's line may have the edge in size but our boys will be ready. Neither team has relied heavily on the run game this year.

Agreed. I’m giving edge to SP due to home field. If game was at Gordy then I would give edge to them. Should be a classic.

Yep. . Thanks for refreshing my memory. They were certainly a different team in the playoffs than the one that lost to Gordonsville

SP by 3 plus scores!
