This Bradley fan would not vote us #1 till we proved it. However, for whatever reason the AP voters go their eyes full of Div 1 prospects (and they are unproven until the perform there as well) and we

Oakland is still the best team. Beating them 1 out of the last 16 tries, and Oakland having a 69 game home streak is absolutely crazy. Beating Oakland once in the regular season, versus a team knocking them out of the playoffs is going to be a totally different story. Last 3 titles ran through Oakland. You’re going to have to take it from them.

Well, look what i just pulled to the top...I said this when everybody was certain that Bradley was #1 in the State. How we feel about that now, heading into this matchup guys?

I feel like if Oakland can beat a team 56-0 that they let beat them in season means they’re very very inconsistent… and this is going to be a monster match up. 
 

Oakland is an absolute monster no questions about it. It’s going to take a Perfect game by a very talented team to beat them. But don’t sleep on bradley.. anybody sleeping in bradley is completely ignorant. Yeah ok Oakland 56-0 that’s cool. They also lost 2 games… Bradley mercy ruled bearden.. a team that beat maryville. Bradley beat two top teams twice in a season… bradley is the team that’s the first team to beat maryville twice in a year since 1986…The first team to take maryvilles district championship from them in 25 years. The team with #9 player in nation.  The team with #1 Offense in state… has set several records this year for Tennessee so….. to think they don’t have a shot is insane. It’s a 50/50 shot between two monsters… maryville and bearden both played VERY well against bradley in the playoffs in 1st half but it took so much energy to hang with Bradley’s talent both teams died off quickly going into the second… bradley plays the entire game. Oakland again is a monstrous team. But this is not a one way ball game.. either team is capable of the win. But could be a blowout either way.. one perfect play and the other teams spirit could be crushed and then it turn into a blow out either way. Loss of momentum is a huge factor in this game.

I laugh at one thing. You pointed out your record vs Oakland's. They went out and played one of THE BEST teams in the United States. And they just avenged the other team they lost to, 56-0. (49-0 with 3 mins left 2nd quarter). 

Anyway, I guess we will see how this one goes. Don't go quiet if things don't go so well.

As an Oakland fan I would agree with this assessment.

If Bradley is rolling, they will be tough to beat at home. One point, Boo isn’t ranked the #9 player in the country. Still an absolute beast and the best player I’ve seen all year, by quite a margin.

      2024 Mustangs

      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!

      Way too early 1A favorites 2024

      By Baseball8 · Posted

      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.
