Another season pretty much in the books, and it's tourney time you elephants <_<. Enough fooling around let's get to it. Who is gonna throw down this May? Personally... I think MUS can beat any team they want right now. The only obstacle in their path is a well coached, extremely talented McCallie team. Perhaps with home field the Nados can win in the Nooga. It's a sip. :lol: Anyone else smellin' me on this one?

I am going MUS and Lausanne/Cordova. West is bringing home the goods.

I really have to go with MUS on this but not just because I am biased. They have a large group of seniors that have played together for the entire time. Not only that is pretty much the same group that is out there(Gibby, Sawyer, Scales, Rainer, etc.) is the team that blew it in the finals. That puts on revenge factor and more determination to end their high school seasons the right way. thats just my two cents worth though

Personally I just dont think the brothers have what it takes to win it all. They might have the heart but the finals usually comes down to who has the most skill. They might be able to make a run but I would be really surprised if they beat McCallie in the semifinals

Yeah, I can see where youre coming from when you say that the Brothers "might have the heart but the finals usually comes down to who has the most skill." But you have to think...are they really that lacking in the skills department? Granted, they dont have a Dan Gibson who puts up a gaudy (what is it 4/5 goals a game?) but they do have players that can get out there and execute time after time. William Hackett's speed on the fast break is virtually unmatched in the state, leading to lots of opportunitys to score. Tyler Samuels has a CANNON of a shot, I mean this kid rips em' past every goalie he faces...its crazy. Sam Stringfellow, Phill Schafer, and Drew McCleland play suffocating D (thats not to mention all of the other poles the Brothers have waiting on the sidelines). Spencer Darhon (however you spell that) uses his speed and strenght to blow by any opposing D middis. Last but definatly not least is Chris Taylor. This kid, in my opinion, should be this year's 1st Team All-State Goalie. He is amazing. That right there is only a few of the Brothers common powers. William Franklin has been tearin' it up lately as well. And as for Mcallie?? Well let's not forget how close that last game was...Double OT my friends...the Brothers I think will be looking for some revenge. Cmon people, lets give credit where credit is due and count the Brothers in for a possible state championship win.

McCallie played a very, very sloppy game against CBHS. We were also down some of our best d-poles. I'd be VERY suprised to see CBHS win against us, especially at home. I'm going with McCallie-MUS in the finals.

    • Deja vu all over again, 7 yrs apart. SMDH Does anybody talk to each other?
    • OK, well, that’s because two quarterbacks can’t start. That’s football 101. The main quarterback won the starting job, so he was on varsity, and the Seymour transfer did not win the starting job. He played some varsity. He was mainly junior varsity, and he balled out when healthy, so for the starting quarterback who’s been starting varsity since his freshman year, if you have any form of proof that he’s gotten worse, somehow, whether that means stats or whatnot, please feel free to share.
    • They’ve both gotten worse. I’ve seen enough games to know that. 
    • The only two transfers that Bearden has gotten that went on to play college football were a defensive back from Karnes, who transferred here way before the new coaching staff got here, and a running back from Carter, who went on to play at Maryville College. Both players received those offers while at Bearden, and both players got a diploma from Bearden High School. Therefore, they are Bearden kids, and you can’t do anything about that.   The transfer from Seymour didn’t win the job, what do you expect two quarterbacks to start at the same time? He played great on JV when he could stay healthy, and when he came in on varsity, he did great. The quarterback position is definitely going to be in good hands when the current starting quarterback leaves, but until then, they’re just going to be battling it out like every good quarterback competition does. The current starting quarterback has his flaws, and that is in the pass game, but what he doesn’t have flaws is running and scrambling, and if you go back and watch any game, which I’m sure you didn’t watch any, we used him very often, and when we needed a deep ball, we brought in the transfer from Seymour. The starting quarterback last year will be a senior this year, and the Seymour transfer will be a junior, so the Seymour transfer is definitely going to get his spotlight. He may even win the job this year. Football isn’t about who the newspaper thinks is the best kid. The best kid in the position will win the starting job, and I trust the coaching staff more than a newspaper or article to pick my starting QB.
    • I mean, we’ve only gotten two transfers that went on to play college football, one who went to UT Martin came his second semester junior year before the new coaching staff was here, and the other one went on to play at Maryville College, in which I don’t believe he had any interest prior to transferring.
