Volball Posted May 28, 2003 Report Share Posted May 28, 2003 This spring saw both Scott County teams play York Institute, which got me to wondering, why don't the two teams play in the regular season? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spanky51jhs Posted May 28, 2003 Report Share Posted May 28, 2003 It may be because of divisions or other obvious reasons. There is a school not far from Jellico called Campbell County and we never play them unless we scrimmage, as far as i know they are 5-a and we are 1-a.

TnMan48 Posted May 28, 2003 Report Share Posted May 28, 2003 I would love to see them play each other. Oneida is a 1A school while Scott high is 3A. I would like from them to play a game once a year and the proceeds going to the schools football programs. It would help each one out and be standing room only.

REBELRON Posted May 28, 2003 Report Share Posted May 28, 2003 I used to work with a bunch of Scott County residents. They told me that Oneida and Scott County hate each other with a passion. I think it would be a great game. I say play it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mynameis Posted May 28, 2003 Report Share Posted May 28, 2003 Any time cross county teams (excluding Nashville, Knoxville, Chattanooga, and Memphis) good games usually happen. There is usually a certain amount of hatred, and it usually means huge gates which are good for the schools. If it can be done it should happen.

pennyplay6254 Posted May 29, 2003 Report Share Posted May 29, 2003 well, i reside from the scott county area. not a good idea i can say. the game would be full of personal fouls and other penalties on purpose. i wouldnt be surprised if there were quite a few fights if these teams did play, but speaking in money terms, it would gain a lot. of course wherever it would be the total profit would not be much, because the opposing team would end up terrorizing the home teams facilities. i don't ever see this happening. but i remember awhile ago, when scotty brummet played for the highlanders these two teams scrimmaged i think in the spring. tons of people showed up for that, just think of a real game...

pig Posted May 31, 2003 Report Share Posted May 31, 2003 the real reason oneida and scott game will never take place is becase onedia will never play scott. they know scott would kill them. scott is much more physical than onedia. scott high is ready any time anywhere onedia wants some Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QueenBee Posted May 31, 2003 Report Share Posted May 31, 2003 Smith County High School and Gordansville are in-county rivals...and to be perfectly honest...very seldom are there any problems involving this game... sometimes words are exchanged...but usually in a friendly, mocking manner... I've never seen any trouble on the field...the kids play hard...both teams want to win...but they keep their heads in the game....While I believe that the gate receipts could be just as big for some other teams, the SCHS-Gordansville game always has a good gate...and it usually is standing room only.... REAL MEN WEAR BLACK, THE REST OF THE BOYS WEAR BLUE!!!!....GO SCHS!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pig Posted June 1, 2003 Report Share Posted June 1, 2003 I for one would love to see this game take place it would be an unbelivable game. The whole county would come to see this game. Onedia won't play scott for some reason and if anyone knows why will some please tell me. SHS(wardaddys) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pennyplay6254 Posted June 1, 2003 Report Share Posted June 1, 2003 pig i do not beleive that oneida will not play scott county. they just have no room for them on their schedule. and there are obvious reasons these teams don't play. one of them is because scott high is 3 or 4 times the size of oneida. you can't expect a team that small to play that size of a team and win. i believe it would be a good game and i don't think the oneida boys would back down to scott high. i believe the total oppostie of you also. i think oneida would win in a close game. just dont get your hopes up for it to happen...
