Rebel Nation Posted November 27, 2004 Report Share Posted November 27, 2004 Ok, another try. No one mentions chicken wings!! So who takes the gold ball home guys and gals? History and 7 previous golden eggs point towards the red rebels. We like open discussion and smack talk MelrosE....BRING IT!! thumb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Somedude Posted November 27, 2004 Report Share Posted November 27, 2004 No doubt Maryville wins the State title. I believe (and hopefully) Melrose will give us a better game than we saw tonight vs. THS. I dont know much about Melrose, other than the fact at how many D1 players they had last year, but after seeing the game tonight and talking with the guys it is obvious Maryville just wants it more. Maryville will be on top, but it will be a close game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nisstek Posted November 27, 2004 Report Share Posted November 27, 2004 I'm so jacked up about the beatin' we took tonight I cant go to sleep. It's a good thing next weeks game is at 3:30. That way the Melrose peeps will have time to calm down after their beating and they can get to bed at a decent hour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebel Nation Posted November 27, 2004 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2004 hey somedude, I got to talk with Matty V and Rhett at Hooties tonite. They both were pretty ubnderwhelmed by the lack of competition. I hate that. THS's fans thought they had a chance. Isn't incredible the talnet difference. THS had some great players though. Whitten was great, as advertised. If there was one person I wouldn't play both ways, it would be him. He NEEDS to concentrate on offense OR defense.

Rebel Nation Posted November 27, 2004 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2004 I'd sure like to hear more about the Melrose team....the news we get about them is spotty at best. Any Mel fans out there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He NEEDS to concentrate on offense OR defense. 825454364[/snapback] I was just as underwhelmed myself. Whitten was a very good ball player and so was Zach Morton. I think the level of competition in their region did not prepare them at all for us. I read an article about the Whitehouse vs. Melrose game and of what I read I think we have a better chance at winning the state title. It seemed Melrose had a few playmakers but no great team effort. Marville is good at shutting down the players that can hurt us and if we do that then we should be ok. I've always heard talk that Melrose never has a decent kicker and they miss a lot of PATs and FGs, and the article I read they missed a PAT they left the score 20-7, so that looks like that could be a weakness for Melrose. You'll be in Murfreesboro won't you?? I know you wont miss it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebel Nation Posted November 27, 2004 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2004 BRO!!! I own box seats You think I'd miss the Murf in December?!! We need to try to get everyone together for "chicken parts" down there before the game. Myabe after the game to watch the SEC Championship!! We at maryville see a lot of teams with "atheletes" and "individuals" and "speedsters". There's a reason they stand out. First, their team rarely has any other talented players and second (I can't stress this enuff), they obviously do not have a great feeder system. I grew up in Maryville's feeder, from midget ball on up. Very few teams get to appreciate the kind of development and team unity we have because their kids do not get the same football 101 as ours do and they usually do not play all their lives together. I guarantee our kids could finish each others sentences... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Somedude Posted November 28, 2004 Report Share Posted November 28, 2004 I'd still like to hear some more info. on Melrose. I know they have 2 Mr. Football Finalists, so obviously they got guys that can play. What kind of offense do you guys run? Hey moyers, I dont know how much of a game the SEC championship will be after seeing today. But thats a whole different topic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrideofDixie Posted November 28, 2004 Report Share Posted November 28, 2004 moyers...... you're exactly right......the biggest football dynasy in maryville is probably the Southerners/ REbs...well now the Lil Rebs too ..... imean no place in TN , probably in america, has such a good football program for children as maryville does..... this rebel team has played with eachother since they were 9 years old...... almost ten years of being together every season....... most of them in the same position they were in during PEEWEE's..... i believe due to this TEAM spirit maryville will pull together and shine in murf and bring us anohter ball.... hey i wanna sit in some box seats...... one of ur posts moyers said u wouldnt be there but now u are saying u are so u need to make ur mind up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebel Nation Posted November 28, 2004 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2004 Never said I wouldn't be there bro. You have me confused with someone else...as is often the case. We think we have good football here. In Texas, football is a religion. The high school stadiums look like small college stadiums. They play from roughly age 5 on....I can't believe Texas doesn't have more Nat Champion teams.... That, of course takes nothing away from what we have...just a reality check. Our program in Maryville mimicks most Texas programs well. Go see Friday nite Lights. It'll remind you of Maryville a lot thumb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebelyell!! Posted November 29, 2004 Report Share Posted November 29, 2004 This is gonna be a great game!! The program and TEAM against the individuals!! Should be a classic and a lesson in football 101. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
