Anti recency bias is strong in you lol those teams weren’t that much better  than today lol I remember when you had go through depending on the year goodpasture, Friendship christian, Lipscomb and whatever solid public almost always Alcoa and maybe Milan, Huntington, etc to win 2A before 10 years ago these boys are fortunate and get a much more fair shake. If you won 2A with just a bunch of local public school guys 20 years ago you had to be special. 

See my response to General but in 09 Marion Counth had to play York, Smith, and Boyd Buchannon to get to Alcoa in the 4th round. 

In 2012 it was more watered down but had to face a very good Friendship Christian in the 2nd round

Yea thats a  gauntlet. Good example. That 12’ and the 11’ FC squad were very good. I watched FC in 12’ beat Adamsville by 40 in the championship game. Lol

Friendship beat a very good Dresden team in 11 and a in my opinion  Adamsville’s best team in 2012 besides their 2014 team. They did whatever they wanted to them in those games

That Adamsville team had won 12 straight going into that championship game too lol Probably best they have it all separated more appropriately now (I would have only 5 public classifications if I was boss) but its definitely much easier now while saying it doesnt take away from the kids accomplishments

I remember there was a stretch some of those privates were winning state in 1A till they started the “private league”  and during that time they would have their way with a smaller school in the playoffs that probably had their best team in a while

Yeah they had the QB that signed with Syracuse. Think he was getting looks from Tennessee at the time. As honk said, FC blew Adamsville out in the ship. I got that wrong, they beat Marion County in the 3rd round. 

 

Either way not trying to take away from these teams currently. I think it is better that they have the privates and publics separate now. 

 

Was shocked to see Oakland beaten so handedly. The first two games today were as good as advertised

I was too. Houston beat a well talented Germantown team in the 3rd round by a good amount, they schemed Oakland up

    • 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!
    • 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.
