Greeneville Vs Morristown East

East really let one get away last week against Cherokee. Rather than sitting at 4-1 in the region and a strong possibility of a playoff berth, they are now in a 3-way tie at 3-2.

 

Even though this game is in Morristown, the 'Canes, unfortunately, have not fared well at Burke-Toney stadium posting a 2-3 record (although two losses came against top-ten teams). At home, East is averaging 21 points a game; allowing 22.5, and have dropped their last 3 games in M'town. Greeneville, on the road, is 2-2, averaging 20 points a game, allowing just under 21 a game, and have won their last two. Looking at their common opponents (Cherokee, Cocke Co., West, and Volunteer), both offenses and defenses are very similar in terms of total points scored and allowed.

 

This should be a close game with a 4 point spread (24-20) and will depend entirely upon which 'Cane team shows up. If the one that played its heart out against West and Jeff shows up, East wins. Otherwise, it's wait until next year for Hurricane fans.

Predictions?

 

Unfortunately for East, Greeneville has something to prove this week after the loss to West last week. I always hope the Morristown teams win (unless they are playing each other, then it is always West), but i think Greeneville is going to come in on fire and will end up pulling this one out.

 

It is unfortunate for East that they have to face Greeneville after the loss to West. Greeneville will want to prove that they can beat a Morristown team and East is that team. If East plays as hard as a team as Ramsey plays as an individual they have a chance. However, after the disappointing loss to Cherokee, I do not think they will be up for Greeneville.

 

Again, Greeneville has something to prove and they will try to prove it against East.

we played a great game last night on both sides of the football ."D" played prob there best game they have all year. they played solid all 4 quarters the only td came off a blown coverage so they shouldnt have even scored on our defense.our special team played a great game also john allen kept them deep in there on territory and the recieving tema done a great job.on offense terral dockery tore it up. in my opinion he could be one of the top back in our confrence and he still has to more year. if he keeps up the progress he could be one of the best backs to come through east. passing game wasnt really there last night they had a great secondary, but with dockery running the ball like he is then i guees the passing game doesnt reallly have to be there al the time.

    • 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.
