I guess you are referring to all the Bledsoe county kids migrating sw to whitwell. If Bledsoe would hire an offensive minded head coach to go with those freshman from last yr and keep those young kids from going toplay on whitwell’s pee wee teams then they could duplicate what whitwell just accomplished.

Agree 100%.

That is my point. Instead of them playing east ridge, play each other. Sequatchie is 3a in football but really should be 2a and should be good games between each other and bring in money for the schools. Instead of bringing in a few east ridge fans, pack the visitors stands with these two rivals

Never said they won’t win. But why doesn’t those games get scheduled. They play against each all the way up through middle school so why not in high school anymore. Like the other guy said it would have taken sequatchie best game but since it wasn’t scheduled we will never know. I’m not taking anything away from whitwells kids. They won the game in spite of horrible play calling in the first half and first part of 3rd. Going for it on your 12 yard line in the second qt was insane.

If boldin is getting stronger schedules then why didn’t he schedule sequatchie and jasper the next two years instead of a 1 win east ridge team and another cupcake. They talk about owning the valley but won’t schedule all the valley teams. You can’t say since sp beat both teams that whitwell would have also beaten them. Not to say they won’t have on the field but you can’t automatically assume. Besides like guy said in an earlier post, it will be the whitwell/ Bledsoe tigers before long

Agree 100%. Like I said the whitwell play calling was head scratching. The coaches basically said we don’t have a clue so just go wildcat and see what happens. And the clock management at the end by c’ville was just as bad as the play calling by whitwell.

The play calling on the offensive side of the ball by whitwell in the first half was pathetic. Putting 31 in shotgun and letting him make plays in 2nd half was their only shot. C’ville didn’t put them away in the first half when they had a chance much like SP and greenback. My hats off to the whitwell kids for not giving up and making the plays at the end when it counted.

C’ville- 27 Whitwell- 14 last td for c’ville will be a pick 6 late in the 4th qt

If c’ville front 7 is able to contain whitwells rb and and not have to have safety help to stop the run c’ville wins. If safety’s have to come up to help then petty on halfback pass for big play or #15 will find #20 on 50/50 pass opportunities and he has been winning those consistently in the playoffs. Then whitwell wins

Been reading messages boards for a while and never committed till now. If the coach in whitwell is invested in community then why is he pulling kids from Bledsoe and etc to play on his pee wee football teams and baseball teams. That shows no investment in the future other than trophy chasing. The real problem is the young kids in that town not getting to improve and be on a winning team bc the other one is stacked with players from other towns or they are in the sidelines bc there are 3 or 4 kids from Bledsoe in the field.
