IF U R GOING 2 ARGUE THEN GO TO THE STAT BOOK. LEBANON ONLY RUSHED FOR 174 YARDS RUSHING ON 66 ATTEMPTS THE WHOLE GAME. THEY CONVERTED 7 OF 16 3RD DOWN WHICH WERE ALL LESS THAN 5 YARDS.(FOR THE MOST PART) ALL THIS ON 75 TOTAL PLAYS. RIVERDALE ALSO CAUSED 7 FUMBLES INCLUDING 2 RETURNED FOR TD'S.

 

OAKLAND ONLY HAD 131 YARDS PASSING AGAINST RIVERDALE. A BIG CHUNCK OF THAT CAME WHEN R'DALE TRYED TO SNEAK A FEW BACKUOS IN. BUT 6 OF 7 THAT IS PRETTY GOOD THOUGH.

I am proud of our sophs.................no matter what you say. They caught passes against bigger, stronger, and more experienced players.They WEREN'T intimidated. And you are wrong.....we caught plenty of them against starters.

 

And my point is.....that if you had DB and their arial prowness....you would be in for a long night. Also IF you played Franklin's LAST yr's team......Solima would rip yall's secondary to shreds. But of course Franklin doesn't have him anymore so you don't have to worry about that one.

hey region!!! long time no post, eh? its great to be back, and i dont think there's a better week to come back to riverdale football. Riverdale and i are coming back early from thanksgiving in mississippi to catch this game in person, and i can hardly contain myself. with respect to all oak ridge fans and players, i just don't see riverdale losing this one. i have never, personally, seen as much speed on one team in my life (they've got more team speed than the 2001 championship team that i was a part of and that boasted players like taron henry, marcus king, edrell smith, and oh yes, lets not forget, mr. ralph king). however, this year's group is also extremely strong up front on both sides of the ball, and thats because of experience.

 

bottom line to oak ridge when we have the ball: have fun trying to stop tb gaston miller. if, by chance, you do stop him, have fun stopping fb tamar butler. given that you stop them both, try stopping dave thomas, the THOMAShawk. if it turns out that he can't run on you, try and stop 6'3" wide receiver rahmel oliver and 6'4" 260 lb te chris perkins. see what i'm getting at? riverdale has too many ATHLETES for anyone to be able to account for. and, their line is dominant and experienced in playoff play. players like ricky lawrence, phillip thomas, justin jones, justin white, and skidmore have all shown they are capable of demolishing anyone in their path (gotta give my o-line boys some love--used to be one of 'em!). dig in oak ridge, its gonna be a long night for you guys on defense.

 

bottom line to oak ridge when they have the ball: riverdale has allowed ONE, count it ONE, touchdown in the previous 42 quarters of play. they are too fast to be beaten from east to west (sorry, guys, but no sweeps or bubble screens) and are way too physical and strong and nasty up front and in the linebackers to beaten north to south (no powers or dives, either). granted, they have shown some weakness in the secondary, BUT, they make up for it by never giving opposing quarterbacks time to throw the ball (qb's don't complete many passes from their backs!!) so dig in oak ridge, cause it's gonna be an even longer night for you guys on offense.

 

the warriors are blue cross bowl bound and level-headed. they control their destiny now. 15-0? i think so. :ph34r:

hasbeen............so happy to see you on. I have been asking about you. Your dad and I have had some great cat and mouse games on here. We have gotten a few threads locked...........ahhhhhh such fun.

 

I should have known you would be able to get back in for the game from Tgiving. I hope the weather will hold up. I won't be here, will be in GA. But will try to get to a computer to check the scores and see how bad yall tore the Cats apart. I am hoping yall get Frankin next week as we played them in week 2 and it will feel good knowing that 3 teams on our schedule got to the BIG SHOW. ( BA was our week 1) Plus we scored on BA and Franklin's first team....so you KNOW I will bring that up. :ph34r:

Info on the weak link:

 

For the season Riverdale's defense has allowed a 36.9% completion rate (80 out of 217). Along with that they have 21 interceptions. Three of those interceptions have been returned for touchdowns. Oppponents have connected on 6 touchdown passes this year. That is an average of 1 touchdown every 36 pass attempts. That is some reasonably good pass defense.

 

Of course, Riverdale has only given up 1 rushing TD this year so passing may be the best option.

 

OR's strength is their defensive front seven so I expect this to be a game very much like last year. It will be a defensive struggle start to finish.

Don't get too angry Chris, we have made it a point to ruin several teams' perfect seasons. BTW, good luck to the Falcons @ Smith County. All Gold Balls east of the Cumberlands this year!
