It was BVD. Some guy from Greeneville (BigVolDaddy) likes to talk smack to Fulton on YouTube. He did this last year and they had a sign for him then as well. Go to YouTube and type in BigVolDaddy and see for yourself. I'm sure all the Greeneville fans really love him doing this.

Not sure how you can say it wasn't that close? Take away Greeneville's turnovers and it would have been a good game. They had no answer for Hawkins - he's a stud. Greeneville moved the ball well, but couldn't finish.

Agree with you on the bullcrap they pulled at mid-field. That was stupid. Don't wake a sleeping giant!

I agree they did move the ball but the fumbles didn't come at like the 5yd line after a long drive. They fumbled on their side of the field. Fulton's defense had a lot to do with that. Even when Greeneville scored Fulton went down and answered. Plus they did it without Rollins-Davis. Plus penalties hurt Fulton all night.

Lol, well maybe if Fulton didn't score all those points it would have been closer....smh. Turnovers are part of the game and should be credited to Fulton. They stripped the ball, they were physical, they had two fabulous ints that the refs robbed them of. The refs were from the Tri-Cities and you could tell. They were clearly pulling for Greeneville.

I still think Greeneville is possibly a top ten team in the state....in any division. Move Fulton out of the way and they probably win the title. Last nights game wasn't about Greeneville coming up short, imo it was just another example of how good Fulton is. 2k runner out injured....plug someone else in and lets roll....literally.

Knoxville area teams are looking pretty good right now. Maryville, West, Fulton, Catholic, Alcoa, Grace all won last night. Good luck and bring it home!

Lol, not. And let's not forget two ints they robbed Fulton of. This game could have gotten ugly.

Personal foul penalty earlier. And #1 was assualted by Fulton which should have been pass interfered. My point is folks that say it wasn't close are obviously biased. If Fulton is honest with themselves Greeneville tested the Falcons defense for sure. Fulton probably won't see that type of battle the rest of the way. Fulton is incredible and appears all time top 20 state of Tennessee good. So yes I went to see 2 great teams and was not disappointed. For those people who can't give Greeneville credit too then..... I hope you never get jury duty in court because you can't see fair and balanced with view of Lady Justice!

No one said that Greeneville wasn't a good team. Yes they moved the ball and yes they scored. Fulton answered everytime. You said that Greeneville had more penalties and that just wasn't true. I think Sullivan South was a better test than Greeneville and played Fulton a lot better. What you have to understand is that Fulton controlled that game from the start. Call it biased if you want but it's the truth. And I hope I don't get jury duty again cause it sucked. But the next time you post something make sure your right.

Ok maybe the amount of penalties but when they were penalized I still say was more costly. I also will say Greenevilles punt strategy was maybe video game esque. Would you agree with that? It was bizarre. Field position was so important and Greeneville kept making way to many gambles.

I agree with the punt thing. It was almost funny. Fulton did win the field position battle mostly due to turnovers. Fulton only averaged 25 yards a punt so I would say that was a wash. The way these teams have played on offense this year can sum up the punting game. Both teams don't do a lot of punting. Fulton had a couple of penalties that hurt a couple drives. I know they had the ball at the Greeneville 20 and then all of a sudden it was 3rd and a mile from like the 45. Bottom line is Fulton got their wake up call last week from Sullivan South and Greeneville had not been challenged all year. Greeneville got behind and seemed like they didn't seem to know how to handle it. Plus Fulton had to change the offense up a bit because of the loss of Rollins Davis. Add him to the game and this could have been a 35 point win. Once Fulton went up 28-7 in the first half that game was over. Too many points to make up.

Hidden in last nights Fulton/Greeneville game was Fulton breaking the states all time scoring record held by... 2010 Greeneville. They still have a couple more games to go to add on to the record. This record is for all classifications.

Smart @$$.
Usually a comment like it wasn't as close as the score indicated is reserved for garbage points at the end of the game. My point was Greeneville competed with them all night, but the turnovers killed them. Had they not turned the ball over, it would have been a closer game. I'm not taking anything away from Fulton - they played great and yes one of the INTs was taken away, the other was too close to tell.

How do you know Greeneville would have scored if they didn't turn the ball over? One of their turnovers was on a fake punt. That's like saying if Fulton didn't have 13 penalties for 122 yards that they would have won by 35.

Okay, I give. Unbelievable, all I was attempting to say was you made it sound like they were never in the game. How many teams have held Fulton to 3 and out multiple times in a game? How many teams moved the ball that well against them?

I was only saying that if they hadn't turned over the ball like they did, it would have been a good game. Simple as that.

They gave Fulton the best game of the year, but had some key turnovers that took them completely out of the game. I think it is delusional to say that their turnovers had no impact on the outcome of the game.

I'm not trying to take anything away from Fulton. I never said that if they hadn't turned the ball over they had a chance to win. I said it would have been a GOOD game and it would have been. With the turnovers they had zero chance.

I'll go away now so you and Rich won't get all worked anymore and think I'm saying they only lost because they turned over the ball. :salute:

Holding FHS to multiple three and outs isn't exactly a good measure of success, since Fulton's best running back couldn't be used to offset those situations, and GHS wasn't really in the game, basically it was over at halftime.

No what you said was that if they didn't turn the ball over it would have been a closer game not a good game. Go back and read it. And all I said was was how do you know they would have scored. And as I said before Sullivan South played Fulton a lot better than Greeneville did.

If I'm a smart ass you're clearly a dumbass. If Tennessee had a bunch of 5*s they might win the SEC. If the Titans had a coach.....well never mind. You can't discredit Fulton for those turnovers. Fulton caused those turnovers, which in turn helped them win the game. I don't hear you saying "what if they granted Fulton those two ints"....which were CLEARLY picks. Why is that? Because if the TRI-CITY REFS didn't rip Fulton off of the two picks, the game would have been over by halftime.

I could also say WHAT IF you didn't start arguments EVERYTIME someone's opinion didn't jive with yours?

Way to change your tune in regard to the penalties once the facts were laid out by orangepants. Lol, you basically call me a liar when you...well your statements were thoroughly disproved. And if you can read you will see in multiple threads that I've said I think Greenville is top 10 in the state. Not in their classification, I think they're one of the 10 best teams in the state. They have speed, size, coaching. If it weren't for Fulton Greenville IMO would win the state. I said that before they played, I said it after they played, I say it now. I'm not a "Fulton guy". Being a Morristown West Trojan I can ASSURE you I have the utmost respect for Greeneville as a program. Not just this year, historically. So while your little rant was designed to make me out as a liar, your little rant was 100% false. In turn, making you look like a.....well you can figure out the rest.

You read way more into my comment than was there. I never said Greeneville would have won if they didn't turn the ball over. I never said it would have been a 3 point game, I just said it would have been a good game. Where exactly did I discredit Fulton. Please point it out to me. You are WAY off base here. Go back and read my post because you are arguing a point that is moot.

It was competitive game in the beginning and was an enjoyable game to watch until they started turning over the ball.
