Red Bank @ Cleveland

[fooseball95]

A lot of history going back to the 1970s. It’s homecoming for the Blueraiders and redbank come in as their only loss to Rhea county. Both teams are talented. Kobe Smith is a stud on the wrestling mat and on the field who could make a huge impact. Cleveland comes in after 2 huge wins the last couple weeks: this one could be Interesting.

You do know that Cleveland is modeled after Red Bank? As well as the colors? When Cleveland was in the design phase this is what they wanted it to look like. Colors and all. Administrators went and visited several of the Chattanooga schools and Red Bank stood out. So that's how the plans for Cleveland came about. So yeah, a lot of history between these two schools. Football and wrestling wise. Haha. Coach Al Miller came from Red Bank. EK Slaughter was an assistant on the football team while I was an assistant on the wrestling team. Brian Thompson was from Red Bank as well. And records need to be corrected as well? '92 They (Sportswriters and such) have us losing to Red Bank in the second round of the playoffs. Not true. We beat them like a drum that year. They had Nakia Walker and we shut him down. That playoff game is what ultimately landed us in the Knoxville Region the following year.  Wanna talk about still a thorn in our side? We lost the State Championship my Sr year to those guys in wrestling. We were runners-up. Not saying if i placed higher we would've beat them. But it would've helped. We went and somewhat practiced with them over Christmas break in '94 and Coach Miller had to open up their own practice room. They were late. Haha...Never lost to Ed Chubb (State Champ) that year. 2-0 career wise against him. Sorry for the wrestling post. But yes, there is a lot of history there. 

 

I think if Cleveland can keep carrying that momentum then i see them beating Red Bank? But you can never count out a Gatewood team. 42-21 Cleveland?

Cleveland by as much as they want. 4th seed in their region at worst. They could sneak up on any other one. They are loaded with athletes.

Booger just sayin

Interested to see how this turns out. Everything tells me that Cleveland will win this game easily, but Red Bank is always a game that every team circles on their schedule. I view this as a trap game going into it for Cleveland, especially after coming off of a huge win against region opponent Farragut. I still think Cleveland wins by 2-3 scores. Would not be surprised if this game comes down to the end though.

Farragut was 2 weeks ago, I’m sure they have moved past it.

Raiders by 17. I think Red Bank gives them a fight, but they don't have the horses to keep it up this year,
