Gtowner, I second that. I don't think it matters how good the kicker is, unless he can put it in the endzone EVERY time. But, they will still likely have to punt a couple times. That could be interesting. With this being the first game of the season, there are alot of question marks so I'm not going to make a score prediction yet. However, if one were to go by what's on paper, they would have to say Gallatin wins this one something like 38-7. Lebanon will be hard pressed to score at all in this one. What a defense..... Go Green Wave.

Here are some meaningless facts

 

Gallatin leads the series since 1930 having played 66 times which is more than any other team in Gallatin's history.

 

Gallatin owns a 42-19-5 record against the Blue Devils

 

Carlos Gaines returns for Lebanon having rushed for 1165 yards last year

 

Daley Sallis returns to direct the offense with over 700 yards passing

 

On the line are returners Tyler Walker 6-2 310lbs, John Mathis 5-11 245lbs, Dustin Allen 5-11 240lbs, and Travis White 5-8 285lbs.

 

Lebanon has a huge line and some experienced backs so they should provide a tough game. Especially after going 2-8 last year I bet they have something to prove.

 

Gtowner, the kicker returns as well as the punter. How well they kick I don't remember. But if it ain't in the endzone then it is trouble.

 

Where are the Lebanon faithful at? They all at the fair or what?

Hmm... I say

 

Gallatin 28

Lebanon 13

 

The Blue Devils are a year or two away from being very good. I expect something like 3-7 or 4-6 for them in year two of rebuilding mode. Gallatin is always tough.

 

Good luck Lebanon.

There we go....I knew there was a Blue Devil lurking out there!

Looking forward to going to Lebanon this Friday and getting this thing started. Always enjoy playing Lebanon. They have good fan support and usually are a quality team. Gallatin will be the first team to play at Nokes/Lassiter field since the tornado gave it a facelift.

 

One sad note is the, and I forget his name, former radio announcer for the Blue Devils passed away earlier this year. I always enjoyed listening to him after WHIN 1010 went off of football talk on Friday nights. I hope that 98 will keep the scoreboard show up and running.

    • 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.
    • An FYI: To see how an opponent has done against another opponent since 2001- go to the game by clicking on one of the teams. Click the G beside the game. For example, Milan: The info will show you the previous matchups and other info.
    • All these college signees went yo other schools for 3 years, were getting college offers then transferred to Bearden. It’s not like this staff did much to develop them.    The BBall coaches son and the Seymour transfer were some of the most talented QBs in the region, and you guys developed them into QBs who might complete one pass a game.
