Couldn't agree more, Little Jerry. That was the game we were hoping for. Surprised Oak Ridge did not try to play fast earlier. They waited until the 4th and almost pulled it off. I'll tell you though, those Bearden Boys are tough. Well coached. Nobody can score on them. Is 0 a Senior? Boy can shoot that thing.

I sure would not consider Oak Ridge underdogs in that game. They will go up there and beat DB handily.

I think Oak Ridge will get them in a well fought close game. However, I see both in Murfreesboro no matter what happens.

Who will win Region 1? No way DB can beat Science Hill like that again right?

I think Maryville will keep it close. The Brown kid will need to have a good game. As for Bearden and Clinton I am taking Bearden. Too consistent and too good defensively. Clinton would have to play a perfect game. The game everyone is waiting for is Oak Ridge and Bearden

Clinton or Farragut? Ive got Clinton in a nail biter! Can Maryville give Oak Ridge a good game in the Semis?

Dang

Region 1 district tournaments have been wild!! I do not see any upsets happening in Region 2. Bearden and Oak Ridge will advance to the region championship. That will be a heck of a game.

I am taking Oak Ridge in a blow out and Bearden in a single possession game. Maybe even a buzzer beater.

Oak Ridge is loaded compared to the talent in this area. I think they got hit by a quarantine earlier this year but now they have their squad. Their difference maker is their big. Plus, on top of that, they have very solid guard play. I do not see them losing in their district because nobody can match their size. As most know, they are also very well coached. They will be tough to beat this year.

I didn’t even consider WEST as a player. Didn’t know they received transfers. I knew they got a new coach.

Are Bearden and Oak Ridge the favorites to represent AAA Region 2? What do you all think?

I heard from a reliable source that Bearden wanted back in but was not invited. Odd since they won it last year. Would probably compete a little better than teams like Wise or Hampton. Seems like they always have at least some talent.

Having a favorite ref intrigues me... How does a ref become one's favorite...

I agree with Maryville, they will be tough down the road. Really wasn't expecting that close of a game with Bearden with how Bearden's record looks. But with that being said, Bearden has played some very good teams this year unlike many other Knoxville teams. For example, Farragut started 7-0 but now have lost 3 straight. They haven't played anybody. I predict their 4th straight loss in a blowout against Bearden tomorrow. As mentioned earlier, Maryville should continue to improve. Totally disagree with Farragut being the team to beat. If they can't beat Heritage, how do they stand a chance against Maryville or Bearden? Hardin Valley may sneak up on some teams this year. Lenoir City is Lenoir City. William Blount stands a chance with their typical shooters. West is down which is odd to me. Still think Bearden finishes 2nd in the league. Will be really fun to see how it all pans out.

I think West will sneak up on people this year. If MAryville's football boys play, they will be very hard to handle. Bearden lost everyone who played any varsity last year. Will be an interesting year for sure. I think their coach will have them competing for the 2nd place spot. Not quite sure what Hardin Valley has. Look out for an experienced Farragut team.

Bearden may win a state title.

Who wins tonight? Bearden or Oak Ridge? Score prediction?

Those Maryville boys really like to talk on the floor. Seems like Joe is always trying to get into a scuffle with somebody. In any other situation I would say Glover's dunk was uncalled for but last night it wasn't. The Maryville players and fans bring that stuff on themselves and then like to cry about poor sportsmanship when they lose.

Well whoever voted for Stephney knew they were throwing a wrench. I would think Eldridge voted for Ques Glover.

As a neutral fan here, I thought the officiating was pretty one sided especially in the first half. 4 technical fouls in a half? I’m still confused bout what each one was about. If Maryville can win at Bearden, I will be shocked. And I doubt those refs will be apart of that game. When do they play again?
