The 2024 season would be the 100th year of Alcoa football… 

Similar to how Tennessee celebrated 100 years of Neyland the 2021 season because Neyland was built in 1921. 
 

but hey if it makes sense for y’all then keep making stuff up on the fly

you have a point and you are technically right but so is that graphic.  my birthday analogy was wrong.  you celebrate your b-day or anniversary at the end of the year.  so a 100th anniversary of alcoa football would be at the end of the 100th season (you turn 1 at the end of your first year) but you are in your first year before you are 1.  so their 100th season is the season before their 100th anniversary.  

so maybe we are all stupid.

No just BCsportsguy & swipes. They are still counting each others fingers and toes to figure it out.

No we just know that you count 1924 as year 1 and not year 0 and this is the 100th year of playing football at Alcoa.  No where in BCsportsfan post or Alcoa's Football Twitter (where the image came from) did it say 100th Anniversary, try again loser :thumb:

This is the 100th year Alcoa football has been played. My questionis where did they play their home games before the field they're playing on now was built. To my best memories they started playing at Goddard field in 1940. I've seen old articles where they played some games at Pole Climbers which a new building is under construction. Also heard they played some games somewhere around the little league ballpark and also out near where Hickory Construction is located. I've seen the picture with the team and Dalton Street Houses in the background at the old high school at Springbrook Park. That may be a David Duggan question possibly.

    • Well nothing new, the Mustangs are really talented again this coming season!  They very well could go undefeated in regular season.  We shall see what happens in postseason.  I think the path to state title game is a little clearer than years past.  I think the Stangs are going to be really good and I think the traditional teams around in 2A are not going to be as strong.  It should be a fun season!
    • I would not put too much stock into the UH over Eagleville. From what I understand they were pretty banged up in that tourney. Catcher was out, they were throwing pretty deep in their bullpen and a few key players were beat up in their infield. Sounds like they are pretty healthy heading into the district tournament. Look at their schedule, they played some really good teams.
