I don’t disagree I just think Alcoa is too much at home. I hope it’s a barn burner. I’ve been goin to this game last 5 years and they have had some dandy’s 

I went last 2 years. Crazy crazy ending last year. Can't ask for a better Friday night game though

[Spike016]

You goin this year? 

[TSSAAfootball]

I can't this year cause of the week it falls. Too late this year.

I wouldn’t be concerned about SG. Hampton going to bulldoze them.   

Here’s how I see R1 playing out.

1 seed Hampton and advances 

Happy Valley has to travel to West Greene for their regular season last game. Happy Valley in my opinion is the better team, but with this being at WG and their playoff hopes on the line or potentially knowing it could be their last game? I think WG will play like they have nothing to lose and win. However, I don’t see WG getting in. Why?  Because I think Eagleton beats Cumberland Gap and Eagleton beat WG head to head.  Therefore, Eagleton will be the 4th seed.

2 seed SG goes into basketball 

3 seed HV possible sleeper 

4 seed EA goes into basketball 

Hampton VS York in the semi at Hampton. Hampton advances to state.

I agree with Pujo on EA. They’ll probably be a contender next year or at least the following. Nice establishment they have.  If you build it, they will come. We’ll, it’s built

GCA? The team that just scored 47 on Austin East? Yes they are better than Oneida.

Providence I have no idea. I will take your word for it. I really didn't look at their schedule, it was just a tongue in cheek comment. So 2nd worst team on their schedule. 

The same Austin East team that’s averaging allowing 36 PPG. They’re 1-7 with their sole win against a very down pigeon forge team. Throw out that game and AE has allowed 46 PPG average. 
 

GCA got by TKA by 7. You described TKA as the worst private school in the state. They also got beat by York by 27 so similar margin. I get score comparisons aren’t very accurate but it’s all we have unfortunately.

Wow!  At a pretty well known private school? Something has happened for numbers to have dropped that bad. It was just a few years ago they had a lineman who was at Tennessee then Tulsa and now at Bowling Green.  

IMG took him from TKA

[highschoolfbfan777]

TKA is a great school.Great education with $$$$ value.Their numbers keep remaining the same & they're not pulling in any significant numbers on the football team.They have lost players to Webb,West & IMG in the past few years which is killer.Matt Lowe did a great job over there but even he couldn't get a huge or decent increase in numbers there & they always seemed stuck in not getting past the 2nd round of the playoffs.Although it didn't hurt the football team they had big scandals with the softball team & girls basketball teams a few years back.They had a great softball & girls basketball head coaches & state championship or close to teams.In fact i'm willing to bet had the hoops scandal not hit sending the players to other schools TKA would have won it all in girls hoops.In fact 2 stars that helped Bearden win it all came from TKA

Can't see WG beating HV. As far as Hampton advancing to state, They are improving  but its a reach to say the least.

No the second week of September is usually a light time for me. Unfortunately I travel more and more as the school year goes on.

I honestly think you may be mentally challenged. AE has played Carter, Gatlinburg, Alcoa, South Doyle, William Blount, and Kingston. Probably one of the toughest schedules anyone in 3A has played outside of Alcoa. And their "sole win" vs a very down Pigeon Forge who just happened to beat Hampton by 10 this year. You do realize there are different classifications in football right? They exist for a reason. 

But you are taking a tongue and cheek comment and getting all butt hurt about it. It's honestly not that big of a deal so why are you arguing about such a trivial thing?
