If yall get the bump and end up in a game vs them then you've made it to the semis so theres that 88 & 89, but MidTenn might correct me on that. I was at both games. 7-3 slobberknocker in one of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We better make a move in 5A soon because next realignment we’re probably heading to the big boy league of 6A. Ain’t no joke up there. How many kids go to Oak Ridge and how fast is it growing?

Most likely the greatest comeback ever by an Oak Ridge football team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was in the low 1300s when Blade was @ OR to give you an idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MidTennFootball Posted February 13 Report Share Posted February 13 2 hours ago, SheriffofRedRock said: I would agree the top of 5A is strong but 6A is heavier top to bottom. Last year was probably the first season I would def agree with that. All the growth in Middle and East TN is starting to show when it comes to parity. 6A has never been stronger 2 hours ago, SheriffofRedRock said: Oakland is loaded it seems every year Oakland is blessed with a great coaching staff but is also blessed with a great feeder system. MS, Fresh and JV have lost very few games the last 5 years 2 hours ago, oridgecat said: Don't see that changing anytime soon, unfortunately for the rest of us. Is what it is. Nothing lasts forever. 6A is more balanced than ever and while Oakland may continue to win alot of games, it's my belief we are near the end of the Creasy era. 2 hours ago, SheriffofRedRock said: I know Oakland and OR used to be a tough game in the 70s and 80s 88 and 89 were the first meetings bewteen the 2 and there have only been 6 meetings total. If it wasn't for Oakland and Riverdale, Gaddis might have a few more titles to his name. I'd much rather have a home and home with a program steeped in tradition like OR than travel out of state Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like OR is 10ish students away from 6A if the cutoffs stay the same next cycle. Would they be in 6A Region 2? That would be interesting..

I was going to say this just to offer some hope to the Cat fans, but yeah, father time is undefeated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
