Image
  Jason Peevyhouse Editor, JP Productions Sports Just one night after the two schools in the Dyer County system met on the volleyball court, Northview hosted Three Oaks in football action on Thursday night as the orange and white from Newbern defeated the Choctaws from Upper Finley Road 22-14 to celebrate Homecoming 2026. Northview got on the board in the first quarter on an AJ Young touchdown run. The two-point conversion put the Choctaws from Newbern on top 8-0 during the opening frame. Three Oaks looked poised to score as the orange and white drove down the field deep into Northview territory. The NMS defense stepped up and stopped TOMS in the red zone to end the Three Oaks scoring threat. But, on the first play of the ensuing Northview drive, a bad snap over the NMS quarterback’s head resulted in a safety and two points for Three Oaks with 2:04 left in the first half.

Big Orange Report September 17, 2026

Image
  299 On Tennessee's first snap from scrimmage, DeSean Bishop burst through the line of scrimmage and played bumper cars with the Georgia Tech defense for a 33-yard gain. That play set the tone for the Big Orange offense for a dominating performance by the infantry. UT finished with 299 yards on the ground led by Bishop. The senior rambled for 150 yards on 20 carries. Sophomore Daune Morris was also impressive, running for 96 yards on just 10 carries in the game. Perhaps one of the most impressive spectacles in the victory was the performance of defensive coordinator Jim Knowles pass rush. Knowles was sending safeties, corners and linebackers on blitzes and the Yellowjackets blockers seemed confused and bewildered for much of the game. For a brief time, Knowles took his foot off the gas in the third quarter but fired things back up when Tech scored twice. Frankly, it was a defensive scheme not seen from a Vol defense in many moons or perhaps, never. Arion Carter returned to tie for...
