Should be another great battle. Powell may have the edge on experience and talent. Halls has looked good agains inferior opponents but has not against playoff caliber teams.

 

Let's keep this thread open the entire week, okay.

 

We all know that the painting artists who like to show off their work are never players and are rarely even fans. They probably don't know what a football is.

Way Powell played tonight, Halls will beat them, I think it will be a close game somewhere around a fieldgoal which I got a bad fealing when it comes down to a FG with Oconner playing against powell.

do you think it will be raining, bc the last 2 games have been in the rain with the worse being 2 years ago when they had to play in Hurrican Ivan

As of right now it looks like next friday is going to be partially cloudy and a high of 79/ low of 55 but we will see.

 

I dont think the weather will matter all that much, Powell has got to learn to hold onto the ball, IM about to watch my recording of the game tonight I left a bit early cause of some buisness I had to take care of so I have to see the end B)

Agreed HaveitYourWay, I haven't ever seen anything like that 56 yarder. I think it even got the officials under the goalposts excited. I sure hope the Vols have a spot for that boy.

O'Conner's dad says UT may not make an offer to Logan since they already have a couple of kickers on scholarship. They do like him and they might invite him to walk-on but he might replace his brother at Marshall.

 

I would be amazed if he doesn't get some offers from SEC schools though.

I gotta say, with the exception of O'Conner, neither of these teams are playing well at all so far this season. Powell continues to have problems holding onto the football, I thought they may have found some offense last week against Farragut, but it was just a tease. Halls just lacks all-around athleticism this year, but they did make a horrible Clinton team look even worse. Nonetheless, both of these teams seem to be a lot more on-par than I would have predicted back in August. It should be a great game next week.

    • 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.
