Alcoa would run all over either by as much as they felt like. They're a 6A talent school in 3A clothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Melvin 22 Report Share Posted November 25, 2021 7 hours ago, SXSW said: Well it's semifinal week and an unprecedented event will take place in Carter County. With 3 semifinal games all within 18 miles of each other! Kind of like the old days of Southwest Virginia. In 1A: South Pittsburg (9-2) visits Cloudland (12-1) Cloudland's only loss this year was to Hampton. The other side of the bracket is Trenton Peabody (12-1) @ 13-0 McKenzie. In 2A: Trousdale County (12-1) makes the 4.5 hour trip to Hampton (10-2) to take on the Bulldogs. Hampton had an incredible come from behind win over Oneida. The other semifinal 12-1 Westview travels to 12-1 Riverside. In 3A: 12-0 Giles County will be 12-1 Alcoa's next victim and 12-0 Dyersburg travels to 9-4 East Nashville in the other semifinal In 4A: The trifectas final game is 12-1 Upperman visiting the 12-1 Cyclones of Elizabethton. The other side of the bracket is a battle of unbeatens Haywood travels to Tullahoma. In 5A: Knox Powell (11-2) plays Knox West (11-2) and 12-1 Page hosts 8-5 Henry County In 6A: Oakland travel Maryville in a battle of 13-0 teams and Summit (13-0) travels to Hendersonville (10-3) The Division 2 Title games are already set. These games are set to be played on December 2 in Chattanooga. In 1A: Donaldson Christian(12-1) takes on Nashville Christian (11-2) In 2A: CPA (10-2) plays Lipscomb Academy (11-1) and 3A: McCallie (12-0) plays MBA (9-3) I am hoping for a Carter County sweep but Hampton and Cloudland have very tall tasks. Good Luck to all involved and Happy Thanksgiving To One and All! I can't handle the cold, so I think I'll stay in and stream undefeated Palm Beach Central v 10-1 Treasure Coast. It's amazing that there will be three state semifinal games within 18 miles of each other in Carter Co going on. Cloudland v South Pittsburgh - It's tough to play on Roan Mtn in brutally cold weather, but the Pirates are too athletic for them. SP by 3 TD. Hampton v Trousedale Co. - This one will be a little closer. Trousedale by 10 Betsy v Upperman - Betsy shooting for three straight titles, and I don't see Upperman getting in the way. Betsy by 20. Murville v Oakland - Murville got destroyed in this game last year and I don't think the gap has closed by much. Oakland by 21. Alcoa v Giles - There's just no way for the other 3A schools to prepare for Alcoa. I'll go with the Tornados by 28 West v Powell - Should be the best game of the night. I'll go with West by a TD.

Melvin 22 Report Share Posted November 30, 2021 No idea about the privates, but..... A - Should be a great battle between South Pitt and McKenzie. I'll go with McKenzie over the Fightn' Roy Dillards in a close one. AA - Love to see Hampton pull it off, and if they can grind the ball on the ground, they have a shot. I'll go with Westview by 10 though. AAA - Alcoa with a running clock to start the 2nd half. AAAA - Should be another great game. I'll go with Betsy in a tight one for a three peat. AAAAA - Powell by 10 AAAAAA - If Oakland can contain Destin Wade, they'll win comfortably. If not, this will go to the wire. Oakland by 10.

Lol I think the idea is for Alcoa is to play up, there has been talk about them going all the way up to 5A with the rest of the Knox County Schools, when the last round of reclassification occurred all the Knox County Schools went to 5A regardless of size for scheduling and travel purposes.

swva_havok_fan 1,261 Report Share Posted December 7, 2021 The Elizabethton game was an instant classic... for those who didn't watch the game here locally Saturday on the CW, and if you have NFHS, it would be well worth your time to go out of the way and watch it. I normally hate the low scoring affairs, but this one had me on the edge of my seat the whole second half/OT. One of the best games you'll ever see.

Tullahoma figured out Betsy's offensive game plan about half way thru the second quarter and both teams missed some opportunities but easily the game of the weekend. I watched 7 of the games and man there is some legit talent D1 talent in Tennessee now and it's getting deeper every year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the addition of nearly 11,000 jobs coming to the metro area, they will dominate the state in everything not just football. It is incredible how the economic development of Tennessee has taken off in the past 5 years, not even considering what is going on with Ford in the Memphis area. That whole area south and east of Nashville is just exploding in population. Word on the street is that if Tampa doesn't get the Rays a new stadium is that the city is going to try and lure the Rays to Nashville.

Tropicana Field has had all the charm of a Sam's Club from day 1, and the Rays would be better off in Nashville who has shown with the Titans and Preds that they will support pro franchises. The Tampa area has supported the Bucs and the Lightning just as well, but the relationship with the Rays has always been lukewarm, due (IMO) in no small part to the stadium location and lack of ambiance.
