SMC final standings 2019
- Thread starter bigoakbuddy
- Start date
First I will need to see who is on Murphy's roster come August. There are a few different kids that will make a big difference for this year's team if they decide to play or come. But it wouldn't be very smart to factor them into the equation unless/until I see them on the practice field this summer.

I was waiting on another Robbinsville fan to post a schedule because I have no idea who we play.
I'll play by along for Hayesville. (6-5) and first round loss would make them 6-6 to Andrews
Towns County GA, if they even play. Towns only has 4 returning kids and pulling every kid up to make a team. Might have 14 kids by August. Win
Copper Basin, TN Rumor on Tennessee boards is that Basin is supposed to have a good team this year. So for that purpose and the ultimate unknown about Hayesville. I'm giving Basin the win. Loss
@Tellico Plains,TN Tellico has a new Coach, so equal advantage. But with the excitement that McClure has brought to the program. Going to lean towards Hayesville for the win.
@Lookout Valley, TN I don't know anything about Lookout except they are a 1A inside Chattanooga. I would say close game but Lookout Valley for the win
North Georgia, Hayesville should win this game but we'll see
@Robbinsville, Hayesville always plays Robbinsville hard with less talent. But this year I think they match talent but lack experience. Robbinsville by 14
@Murphy LOL no contest
Andrews- Young Andrews team could be a tough game. At this time I would hope Hayesville could beat this team. Win
Cherokee- Don't know what Cherokee returns but even in Cherokees down years these two teams have had unbelievable games. Win
@Rosman. Hayesville now with a two game win streak and Rosman with there interim coach I believe Hayesville wins this one.
Swain- the steak ends on senior night and Swain wins this on in a close one.

That’s perfect smctalk. Someone from Robbinsville please post our schedule. If I’m going to start this thing I better get on the boards.
Looking at our schedule I would say the only two teams that will give us a real fight would be Murphy (Home) and Robbinsville (Away). Not to mention Smoky Mountain and Hayesville will be close ball games but I feel we can win those. We have a legit shot at 9-2 or 10-1.
Man just look it up.. Not sure if this is allowed but heres a link.

They have a stud running back...not sure Robbinsville has a chance against them either.
Just confirmed they have a lot returning at Smoky Mountain. I thought they had lost a bunch of linemen and defensive players and QB. Most of the team returns and they have a few transfers that are big and athletic. Overall a very athletic team. I’m being told they are picked to be first in their conference in many years. Smoky is going to be tough. RB is a better wrestler than running back. Not that great of a running back would be third or fourth ranked in the SM Conference. Runs hard.
Hard to make a statement like that when we don't even know who's on our own rosters.
One or two players can make a difference for 1a teams. Sad when I hear a player does not have it in him to compete for a position or to help the team win games. It takes a team to win a championship.
Unless plans change I won’t be able to attend any games this year... Now with that being said here are my predictions for the conference anyways...
1. Murphy 9-2 (6-0)
I don’t have any idea of what the Bulldogs bring back at QB but until someone comes along and knocks them off, I have to assume they do enough to snag the conference title.
2. Swain County 7-3 (5-1)
I think the Maroon Devils could possibly be in the position to win their first conference title out right since 2013...
I say as of now though they are still a year away.
3. Robbinsville 7-3 (4-2)
Well with Anderson a senior, this year could be the last shot we have for some time to come to compete for a conference and state title. Like last year I don’t think the team will have the horses around him to help get it done. Either way this year is do or die for the Black Knights.
4. Hayesvillve 8-3 (3-3)
My sleeper pick based on what I’ve been hearing about some of the upcoming talent for this years team. I think with an easy non conf schedule they should be able to run the gauntlet and pick up 5 wins. Loses to the big three.
5. Andrews 6-5 (2-4)
Like Swain I think the Wildcats are still a year away...
6. Rosman 2-9 (1-5)
I think the Tigers new coach does enough to keep them out of the basement...
7. Cherokee 1-7 for now (0-6)
Lost too many players. I would be surprised if they pick up a win in conference play this year.

Bk does that every year. He is glass half empty person. In 2 weeks he'll come on and say never mind everything is right as rain. Lol.
Until Swain changes upfront Murphy and Robbinsville both are a lot better.
I might be a little high on Hayesville... but all in all I think the conference is going to be the Big Three running through it per usual...
I agree with your top 3 and I think it could go in any order. I can see Hayesville surprising people but I don't see Cherokee getting out of the basement. They lost a ton of kids and got a new HC. Rosman's HC has been there before and he's a proven winner at both Rosman and Brevard. Andrews should beat the bottom three and might challenge any or all of the top three. As usual it will depend on if they can stay healthy because their numbers are always low. I have Swain down at three because they have a brand new OC. If that's not an issue I can see them potentially winning conference. Hayesville has a new coach but I think he will do good and from what I hear they will have several athletes. Usually their problem is their line.
Swain should be better than they were last year with Sain and Lossiah having some big game experience under their belts. I expect some close games between them Murphy and Robbinsville.
Agreed. My only issue is the switch at OC. If that's not an issue or they got an upgrade, then I can definitely see them winning conference.
The o-line is the issue. They have very good backs but couldn't get out of the backfield last year. Murphy's on-line should be better, I don't see Swain winning.
The game of football is won in the trenches, but if there's an offense that can produce without a dominate line it's veer.
