5 Teams in TN High School History That Defeat the 2022 Lipscomb Academy Gold Ball Team

[Kublah]

Just my two cents after watching the title games, but I’m not so sure Baylor and MBA wouldn’t have beaten LA this year. No dog in the hunt at all.

Im not upset. It pains me to speak well of BA, I just have never seen anything like it. I don't need to watch the video, I was there if it was the one in clarksville. After watching the games this weekend, I can easily say there were no better players than Will Bartholomew and Travis Stephens on any of those teams. If i recall, Bartholomew was not close to being the biggest guy on his team and he isn't small. Don't think i would ever call Travis Stephens or Tim Terry slow either. Generalizations are too vague. It wouldn't be accurate for me to assume every kid is soft now, just because the game itself is softer now. A lot of the kids i saw this weekend would get hurt playing some of these "small, slow" guys.

If I have my years right, that NE team that was so explosive had a 2 headed monster in the backfield. They had Travis Stephens who was great by himself but they also had Marcus Gildersleeve as well who went on to play at Va Tech. Those 2 together in the same backfield were virtually unstoppable for a high school defense, which shows how good the BA defense that year was.

The same one that beat BGA 35-7? lol.

They may beat them…was a great team no doubt but they wouldn’t smoke em.  LA finished #14 in the country in 2022.  That has to mean something. Football at the high school level in Tennessee is better now than 10 years ago.  That is a fact.

Couldn't you make the same case in the 49 other states and Washington DC?

Probably could…but I live in Tennessee and LA and Ensworth are in Tennessee.  What’s your point?
