Heck of a game. We'll see ya'll again boys. But I hope ya'll win it all now!!!

Whatever happens, we've had a good game on both sides. Bolivar needs some good hard games like this to build on. Only a few if those you see tonight are Srs. I said earlier to be honest we're about a year away. But we played hard enough that the "mercy rule" wasn't needed! Coach Lowe has a plan and it's worked so far.

Guys, I'm a Bolivar fan, but I also grew up in NW TN so I know Milan well. And many of your predictions are very likely right since our new coach came in to a program that the previous coach had not only run aground, but had purposely wrecked on his way out the door. Who knows if we'll ever pay again or not since the TSSAA changes things every 5 min, but I'll tell you a couple of things about the program. Coach Lowe is developing a great program, but we're not there yet. Most of our best players are 10th grade..with a few others here and there. We are about a year away, but the team goals were met this season. The SS game was a mess. I'm not being a homer when I say the refs had it in for us that night. I'm sure ya'll have had same...just one of those nights. Bolivar stayed with them in a tight match until 3rd Qtr, but SS did get the win. No complaining here about that, but it was closer than the score indicated. Covington? They were the better team Period. Our lack of experience was glaring that night. Milan has always had a good program all my life. But I've got to defend my boys a little here, b/c they are coming on. No doubt about it. Maybe they'll catch some "sleeping dogs"? But if you do win, I hope you take it all the way!!!

It will be one heck of a game. Always is! This is a true RIVALRY game! But I'm pulling for those Bolivar Tigers!!!

Amen about the Refs! Let 'em play!

Well oldkodger, EL didn't send Bolivar back west(as you predicted) and Howard(and congrats to Howard) but they won by 2 instead of your predicted 20+! Great teams in both brackets...but I'm still pulling for my Bolivar Tigers!

Congrats Middleton! Now let's just hope Bolivar can win and we can have a chance of sweeping this thing!!!!

Looks like the Middleton Tigers brought it from Hardeman Co. once again!!!

Most folks on here know I'm a Bolivar fan. But I've gotta give this matchup to our archrival Liberty. No offense to Fulton, but I expect Liberty to bring it.

At this point, I'm not going to be all smart talk because it could be anyone's game. But if I have to just guess...I'd say the only thing Stone will say IF they hand Bolivar the ball is "good luck in the next round, we'll be listening from home". Beat down and tired out? Bolivar? Please.

When Bolivar and Liberty play...it could be anyone's game. But Bolivar has beaten Liberty this season, so to act like it's impossible isn't exactly right. I'm sure both teams will show up to battle. They usually do. Bolivar's ball handling was sloppy last night at times. No doubt. But regardless who did, or didn't, play-they still won. And the first half they weren't just winning, they were dominating with a 20 pt lead. Either way...it's Liberty and Bolivar...so we all know it's anyone's game. This game will now be bigger than anyone knows...just wait and see. It's a must win!!!

Bolivar will be at the Tourney...and if they can get hot right now...they could win it again. It's all about when you turn it on. Lord knows...I hope they really turn up the heat now!!! But I do beleive they'll be back at MTSU. Especially after they won last night.

This one is super special for BCHS. As someone said on a previous post- this Bolivar team didn't have any big-time standouts. Very good players...yes. But I guess my point is that as BIGWEBB said: Rudesill can flat out COACH. The boys put out all the effort and sure got it done, but Rick brought them together and has developed this team all year. When you beat the type of competition we did, you're not being "given" anything. 32-4. Not bad. One other thing. Fulton, Marshall County and for sure Liberty were great competition! Those teams can flat get it...and I know that is NO surprise to any of their fans! GO TIGERS!!!

You said it btownbasketball! This team really did play with a great deal of heart (beating some great teams along the way). All championships are good of course...but this one is especially great because this team really did refuse to lose. TIger players and coaches...we are all really proud of you!

Bolivar wins! 72-62. Wow. This team did find a way to win. Congrats to our coaches, players and our competition.
