 2022 Preview 


       Scottsboro finished the 2021 season with a disappointing 3-7 record. Last year Scottsboro just missed making the playoffs with a fifth place finish in Class 6A region seven with a 2-4 region record.

       The offense struggled putting points on the score board as Scottsboro averaged scoring just 12.3 points a game.

       Since 2010, Scottsboro has gone a combined 56-72. Their 43.8% winning percentage ranks 27th in Class 5A over the past twelve seasons.

       Over the past 25 seasons, Scottsboro has managed to compile a record of 124-146. Their 46.0% winning percentage ranks 31st in Class 5A and 237th in the AHSAA.




       The Wildcats are led by head coach Cris Bell who is entering his second season at the helm. His team finished with a 3-7 record in his first season at Scottsboro. The Wildcats saw improvement from a 2-8 record the season before coach Bell arrived. The Wildcats have yet to reach the playoffs under his direction. They have not won a region crown with Coach Bell.

       Coach Bell's overall record as a head football coach in ten season stands at 50-56 (47.2%). Over the course of his career, Coach Bell's teams have qualified for the playoffs a total of four times .

       The Scottsboro Wildcats will play in Class 5A region seven during the 2022 season. The Wildcats may find the schedule slightly easier this season with the move down in classification from Class 6A to 5A. They will compete in region seven this year.

       With a little luck and some improvement, the Wildcats could find themselves challenging for one of the playoff spots for region seven this season. Scottsboro missed the playoffs the past couple of seasons but hope to return to the post season in 2022.

       The Wildcats open the 2022 season at home against non-region opponent Fort Payne on Friday, August 19 at Pat Trammell Stadium. Last year the Fort Payne Wildcats finished with an overall record of 6-5 and in third place in Class 6A region seven. The Wildcats lost in the first round of the Class 6A playoffs to Briarwood by a score of 35-12.

       Scottsboro and Fort Payne have met a total of 88 times on the football field. The Wildcats have a 32-53-3 record against the Wildcats. They last met in 2021 with Fort Payne winning by a score of 28-0.
