Croach,

 

Rivedale had some starters on the shelf against Siegel. I don't think we suffered any other significant injuries during the game. Hpefully, we will get some of the guys back for this weeks game. It is a rather big game and we want all hands on deck.

 

Riverdale does have depth so they have some pretty lively practices. That is also where most of our significant injuries seem to occur.

 

Oakland has had a strange season. They seem to either win big or lose big. They also win every other week. According to that pattern, they should lose this week. Let's hope the pattern continues for this week and after that I hope they win out.

man croach you should know better than to ask that question, shady is with us! you know those blackman folk, rooting for rankin to them is the equivalent of hierarchy. but to another matter, about oakland's season in general, and stating that we have either won big or lost big, look at who those losses are against, ba,lincoln co, and franklin, teams with a combines record of 16-2, that tells me that oakland is battle tested for this one and defensively i think we are, its the offense that i am worried about, although they did show up against blackman on and played rather impressively. btw, does anybody know if rahmel oliver is out for this game?

Regarding the back to back home field discussion. Oakland was the home team in 2000 and 2001. The 2000 game was at MTSU as always. Oakland chose to hold the 2001 game at MTSU, even though our field was ready, in order to accomodate the large crowds we were accostomed to, (20,000 in the playoff matchup).

 

The reason for the back to back scheduling is a little murky to me. It seems that the agreement is to alternate who gets home first in a two year deal. 2002 was the end of the previous 2 year deal and 2003 is the first year of the new 2 year deal. Oaklnad will be home in 2004, (the end of the current two year deal), and also home in 2005, (the beginning of a new 2 year deal).

 

Look for the first Riverdale and Oakland game to be held at Oakland in the second round of this year's playoffs when Oakland wins the region this year.

    • Yeah I am on board and plan on coming down from the Ridge for some home games, great Friday night atmosphere there.  I'm really hoping SC can get them back going and have some success for those fans and community.  
    • Yep I was field level on the scoreboard end throwing ball with Benny when we had that brief lead. Everybody got very excited but it was short lived as Murvil regrouped and went into machine mode. But yeah,  that hit sounded like the crack of a black powder rifle being fire.  I believe Dozier took one like that as a Soph up at Greeneville after on olay block.  
    • Ole Benny boy lol. I forgot about Harder. He was tough as crap. He graduated in ‘09. I went to the OR/Maryville game that year (great game, btw) and he collided with Jacob West (I think was his name) and you could hear it clearly at the top of the visitor bleachers. Man, it was a stick. He could lay some wood son. All those guys were tough, Elliott included.
    • They do have good community support for sure and did when I coached under Z for 4 years. (I was on that staff that turned them around a little from winning 1 game a year to actually being competitive).  Great Kids and Great Community over there.  They have done some good things with the facilities from when i coached too. 
    • I personally will not mind that one bit.  It seems like a really strange fit to me from the git go.
