William Blount vs. Oak Ridge


Recommended Posts

WB can get into and out of trouble in a hurry. It depends on which team gets on the bus in Blount Co.

 

If it's the one that dbeat Ooltewah, I like WB's chances. Their ground game is tough and they can pas when they need to. Wall can run his way out of most trouble.

 

If it's the one that showed up jacked up out of their minds and playing nervous vs. Maryville, Oak Ridge wil pound the Govs. Thr Govs have to stay even keeled, even if the breaks don't go their way early.

 

The rain does favor WB.

Final OR 27

WB 6

 

Gotta hand it to the WB guys, they never gave up. That #40 for the Gov's is one fast player. If you give him an inch he will take a mile. I was a little shocked at the starting QB coming back into the game late after being injured. He was gimped up and couldn't run. Obviously in pain and OR's defense wasn't letting up. He couldn't run effectively and barely could get out of the pocket. Not a smart move on somebody's part letting him back into the game.

    • 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.
