Blytheville vs Forest City

[Chief-Chickasaw]

Does Blytheville have a chance at beating Forest City?
I say the Chicks play a good game. They have played well with their backs against the wall. Losing the linemen really hurts Blytheville. Hope we can move the ball the offense has been a little stagnant. On D if we can stop the runs up the middle we will be in good shape. We have been gashed up the middle by QBs all year. Hope we have a change at LB this week. Our LBs have been playing on roller skates the last few games.

Forrest City is a very talented team....#4 is a player and has great hands...the QB is fast and runs a lot!

[hogwild_82]

I'm not sure but I don't think FC even has a #4 playing. You must be talking about last year, that number 4 was the man, but he graduated.

[hogwild_82]

Two days away from a playoff play-in game both teams are getting ready for battle. Forrest City has been disappointed a few times this year by less than a touchdown on 3 different occasions. They played Batesville and Wynne well til the 4th quarter. The injury bug has set in as well. These boys are competitive kids though, I think they will be fired up to get in the playoffs after last year of being 7-3 and not making the playoffs.

Blytheville we all know has gone through a whirlwind of emotions the last couple of days. They will be playing for their friends that aren't playing this week b/c they were seniors and will miss their last game. The Chicks will bring a tough athletic group that is ready to ruin Senior Night for the Mustangs.

With the playoffs on the line - Mustangs         41
                                         Chickasaws      20

The above quote is so dumb. Blytheville didn't even start the fight last week. Paragould was the 1st to throw punches and the 1st to rush the field. Blytheville got caught in bad situation.  Let's move on already.

No problem. We just take more crap then we deserve over here from surrounding schools. We get a lot of the thug comments when the mass majority of our kids our really polite and we'll behaved. You're cool I was being sensitive.

[Intelligentsia]

On an unrelated note; I was very impressed with the, friendliness of staff,  cleanliness of the restrooms at both the Blytheville football and volleyball venues, and well as the pride taken in the yard upkeep.  Though the buildings are old and the district struggling with economy, keeping things clean impressed me; unlike some of the other schools we visit. 

[Chief-Chickasaw]

Thanks we do the best we can with what we have. We usually have a lot of officers at game because we understand our reputation and we want anyone who visits to feel comfortable.  As far as the building and fields we've been fighting an uphill battle there. No one wants to build anything new because they would have to tare something old down and god forbid be tare down the old gym because that is where granddaddy used to play lol.

[Wildhog14]

Chicks win this one by 30+.. Forrest City always folds at end of season and is hearing the sounds of round balls on hard floors!!

[walkingguy72396]

The suprise of the night.  Guess the posters are shell shocked.

[Qhcaoc]

Congrats to coach Ben Fisher and the chickasaws on making the playoffs in his first year as head coach. I was glad to see they were able to overcome the adversity of last week and get a win at Forrest city. I can't tell you the last time blytheville has won at Forrest city but it has been at least 6 years. Congrats again.

[notsofast]

Unbelievable! Forrest City should be filing an appeal right now.  No way Blytheville should have even been allowed to play this game.  They had everyone ejected for a brawl against Paragould.  This is a travesty.

[Wildhog14]

NotsoFastEnough good luck with that

Great example the AAA has set.  Get into a brawl that causes the game to be stopped and all player ejected due to leaving the bench.... no problem... you still get to play for your playoff spot.  It would be awesome to see PA hang a "hundred" on them...

Nope.  It just isn't fair that the AAA doesn't follow their own rules.  Forrest City was screwed over by the AAA and misses out on the playoffs.  Blytheville gets into a brawl and is rewarded with a playoff berth?  And, the players who started the brawl will be able to play in the playoffs?  Forrest City should be appealing.  And, I take it back, I hope PA hangs 150 on them.

[warpath55]

Forrest City missed out on the playoffs because they lost. Not because of the AAA hombre. Honestly, I imagine the AAA looked at the schedule and said..."let em play, they'll lose anyway."

Hmmmm. Where was this status before the game start. Oh i forgot, the Chicks wasnt suppose to win...lol.. Way to go Bville..

The AAA is spineless. FC should still be playing.  Blytheville doesn't deserve to still be playing.  PA +100 or more...

[warpath55]

Well they easily could be playing...had they won. Get off your soapbox and let it go.

Maybe so but FC  couldnt do it cause the Chicks kept them from going..

[Wildhog14]

Someone is in their feelings bad today.

[Rampage72501]

So you think the AAA is at fault because Forrest City - a clearly superior team playing at home - loses to Blytheville?  Here's a thought - take care of your business so you don't have to worry about what someone else is doing.

Have fun bouncing the basketballs...

[notsofast]

The AAA kept them from going.  Let's see, bench clearing brawl where players have to apologize in the newspaper, but the team is still allowed to play?  First, the AAA should have done their job and upheld the ejections for leaving the bench during a fight. Next, if the Blytheville administration had any integrity, they would have shut down the season even without the AAA forcing them to.  Great example set by AAA and Blythevill administration.

Keep trying to justify it any way other than Forrest City didn't get it done when they had to.  The better team, playing at home, lost and now their season is over.  Everything else is irrelevant. 

Enjoy some cheese with your whine.

The game should never have been played.  The AAA didn't do the right thing.  The Blytheville administration didn't do the right thing.  Now, the brawling players know that there are no consequences to their actions. PA +100 or more.

Classless bunch there in Blytheville.  Happy for a team of brawlers getting a playoff berth that they don't deserve.

Rampage 72501, I believe he's a player that had a bad game and is upset they lost. He probably walk the halls during school bragging on how they would beat Bville down...I can tell by the number of posts he has made.. Lol

[notsofast]

No class at all.  Maybe Blytheville should look into starting a mixed martial arts or boxing program.  They are pretty good a that.

[ISU7]

Bville team wont have class Monday but FC surely will. Lol No class for Bville....We are in the playoffs cause we went to FC and BEAT them..

How about putting on your big girl panties and moving on?  You don't get it.  It doesn't matter that the AAA didn't do the right thing.  I'm not disagreeing with you, although I know nothing about the information provided to the AAA other than what's been reported on here.  It doesn't matter that the Blytheville administration didn't set a good example by allowing their kids to play after their misbehavior the previous week.  What matters is that a good football team, playing at home, didn't win a game that EVERYONE thinks they should have won.

The consequences for not getting it done on the field means it's basketball season.  Besides, think of the time and money you'll save by not having to drive to Little Rock this Friday for a beat down...

And yet you want the remedy to be Forrest City to get into the playoffs for a berth they DO NOT deserve?  You didn't get it done on the field when you had the chance.  Everything else is irrelevant.

[Missco]

Blytheville admin. handled the situation very well. More to this story than meets the eye..FC. just didn't handle business.

Again, there was no "brawl" at Blytheville.  The "bench clearing brawl" lasted all of......30 seconds.  The AAA made the right decision in allowing both teams to play.

Remember, children: controversy sells newspapers & TV time.  "Don't let the FACTS get in the way of a good story."

So, HOW did Blytheville beat Forrest City?  Was FC having trouble with its passing game?  Did the loss of linemen cause Bly to develop new tactics?

[warpath55]

You got beat by 2nd, 3rd, and 4th string kids who left every ounce of energy out there on the field. I would say that it was B'ville's most complete "team" effort all year. Again, this is coming from what I heard on the radio.

[warpath55]

Apparently by their thorough knowledge of jiu-jitsu and karate.

[Rampage72501]

They had better learn takewondo, mixed-martial arts, and the belly-to-belly suplex for this Friday night...

[warpath55]

It's hard to believe that at Blytheville...they would play the top 3 teams in the state in the same year. That's brutal.

There was a brawl at Blytheville.  It was confirmed by multiple people and news outlets.  Bottom line is there is a rule that players that leave the sideline in a fight are ejected.  If you are ejected, you are suspended for the next game.  The game against Paragould was stopped because all players were ejected.  Blytheville shouldn't have even been able to play.  Classless move by AAA and Blytheville administration.

[Chief-Chickasaw]

Don't forget one of the Top 3A teams in Osceola Top 4A teams in Helena/W.Helena a really good team in Mississippi.
It was a great effort last night by Blytheville.  The kids involved in the "fight" did not play. I believe the coaches even held out some extra players the we're not officially suspended and some of the players suspensions may carry over to the playoffs.
Anyone not happy about the AAAs punishment do you really think it would be right to take away a game from boys who basically went on to the field to grabbed their buddies for what was slightly greater then a glorified shoving match.
Also if the AAA cancelled the game Forest City would not have got to have that lovely Senior Night.

What's even more classless is constant whining about YOUR inability to win a football game against a team you should have beat.

Bottom line, Forrest City doesn't deserve to be in the playoffs, no matter what happened in Blytheville in week 9.

All of that is irrelevant.  There are rules.  It is a known fact that the benches cleared.  If a player leaves the bench during a fight, they are automatically ejected.  If they are ejected, they don't play the next game.  It is a total farce that Blytheville is still playing.

Blytheville doesn't deserve to be in the playoffs.  They took part in a bench clearing brawl and received virtually no punishment.  Please PA, hang a hundred on them.

[Rampage72501]

But Blytheville will be in the playoffs, whether you feel they deserve it or not...because they beat you on your field, with 3 of their best players not playing.
