When you are 24-6, get 4th place and lose to a 13-16 team. Either a major injury or Coach McWilliams TANKED!!!! To AVOID White Co. UNPOPULAR OPINION! But a Genius Move. And I Am The Person With Cojonas To Say It. Happens a bunch. TSSAA needs to go to 8 Regions and have accurate seeds. No one will ever do it like Riverdale did it but I have been watching ball my whole life and teams just happen to play their worse games of the year when it benefits them the most. Missed layups, careless Turnovers, missed FT's...just a convenient lack of focus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scoring 35 a game doesn’t help. It’s hard to win when you can’t score. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tennesseeannouncer Posted February 20 Report Share Posted February 20 You have to be good AND lucky at this point in the season. And unfortunately, some teams manipulate their own path. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tennesseeannouncer Posted February 20 Report Share Posted February 20 I don't have a dog in this race but is it fair to say Upperman tanked? They swept Stone in the regular season but won those games 45-42 and 41-35. Losing 47-39 after those scores doesn't sound unbelievable. The unfortunate part of consolation night is that if you lose folks just assume you were tanking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Crockett Northview Academy Heritage White Co South Side Sycamore Dyersburg Crockett Co I agree that 13AAA gets two teams to state but just not sure if it will be Crockett or South Gibson. Both schools are on the bottom half of the 7AAA bracket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not surprised they lost this game but for sure they aren’t losing any sleep over this L. Gives them a shot at making tourney. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heritage plays in the weakest region in the state this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
