Look at the image and see where most of their wins have been against, those pitiful upper East TN teams, it seems you’re the delusional one…. You do know that Tennessee at the top was the top program in the country, Oak Ridge was and is a powerhouse. You also discount current records against teams like Montgomery Bell. I travel around and watch sports all over the state, I don't see a difference in the top teams in upper East versus every other area. I'm sorry to say it but the Chattanooga area has no say in football. Maybe wrestling but nothing is different there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BatmanDevil Posted August 28, 2023 Report Share Posted August 28, 2023 Nobody likes the way this one ended but I also understand the factors for the decision.I'm an old school guy but someone who played way back in the fifties told me the best lightning story when it came to the Devils. Back then,men were men as they say and the Devils were practicing with a very tough coach leading them as it poured rain and lightning all around.The old timer said the coach wasn't fazed until a lightning bolt actually hit the field .The coach still spinning his whistle said nothing and just pointed towards the dressing area off the field and the players all ran for their lives,ha. I imagine the coach slowly walked behind them ....Had he been in charge last week, we would have probably seen the end of the game,one way or the other .

It's very possible but I 100% can't say it was,Been a long time since I heard it. I seen a lot when he was an old man to know anything wasn't out of the question.Nobody messed with him even when he was in his 60's and older Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McCallie, Baylor and Boyd Buchanan are good in private league Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
