Wow,

 

A whole lot of talking going on in this one. Any reasonable thinking fan knows this will be a dogfight to the end. Good luck both teams and hold on to the ball!!!

OR comes out in a very close game, 26-20. The kicking game was a disappointment again for OR. We really need to get that sorted out. I thought that Soddy Daisy exploited their height advantage at wideout very well against our short secondary. At least two of their touchdowns were just jumpballs that Paul Bingham had no chance at defending against someone 6+ inches taller than him. But Spencer Gulmire had the perfect response with the kickoff return. The whole team played a great game, but it seemed like Gulmire especially turned in a man's performance. Credit to Scott McMahon and Lenard Blair, as well as Daniel Johnson for crucial drives in the second half. Credit also to Soddy Daisy, who brought quite a few fans with them. Their team gave OR a heck of a fight, and good luck to them in the playoffs.

Oak ridge, Soddy, Owls, I think ya'll have great programs and you all play pretty darn good D. It's becoming increasingly more clear to me with every game though that you have nothing for DB and Riverdale.

 

YOU GUYS NEED TO STEP IT UP A NOTCH!!

Glad that ones over. Soddy's tough. Don't want to see them again.

 

Had a local business man bring his helicopter in and tried for about an hour to dry the field. How's that for a fan and a good sport?

 

Bring it on Tyrone Lets get it on. Who's next?

The road to Region 2-5A still goes through Oak Ridge, but them players from the Chattanooga area tried hard to build a detour. Great Game Soddy and good luck in the playoffs! thumb

Great game to those wildcats! ya'll are a solid football team. we were plagued with turnovers early and that was our downfall yet again. also our special teams let us down again. we had some momentum but that gulmire is awesome!! i don't understand why we kicked it to him?!? oh well ya'll played a good game and beat us on the field. congrats and hopefully we can see each other again!

 

 

BTW, just want some wildcat opinions on the refs.....what was the deal at the beginning of the 2nd quarter? that was an obvious miscommunication.

Thanks HotSauce! Soddy is an excellent football team that deserves 2nd place in the region. How you all lost to Ooltewah is a mystery to me. You all brought a big group of fans and they were very loud; it made for a great football atmosphere. This is a much better coached team than last year and it showed. I thought both teams made a lot of mistakes early, but you get that in the big games. Usually the winner is the one that plays through them.

 

As far as the Refs, I thought they had a tough time the whole game. There were lots of miscommunication and I thought it really interupted the flow of the game.

Good luck in the playoffs and have fun hosting a 1st round game.

Congrats to Soddy Daisy! Great team, we may see each other again.
