How good is Friendship Christian this year compared to the Trousdale County team last year?

Well I will answer it. This is pretty much the same team that lost to TC last year 28-21 in round 3 of the playoffs. FC is pretty balanced with what they can do. The one thing about this team is they are quick and will get after you. Mr football candidate Mitchell is a beast and the defense has intercepted about 30 passes or so this season.

Lookin forward to seeing you folks in Possumtown.

As I guess we at FCS were the only team to play Trousdale County twice in 2005 I would say and have heard many other FCS fans and coaches say they were a very well coached and talented football team.

As for this year we feel at FCS feel that we are a very well coached and talented football team.

In comparison the only thing I can say for sure is that both teams at this point of the year have and had a record of 13-0.

As for how FC stacks up to Trousdale from last year, Trousdale beat them twice on the way to the title, and FC has basically their entire team back from last year. I still consider Trousdale from last season to be the best. I know Hampton couldn't stop Trousdale at all lastyear, they kept us off-balance all game long with the pass, run, and a running QB. I know Hampton has developed offensive diversity, as well, so they won't be one-dimensional as they were against Trousdale last year. If the game is close late, watch out FC, this is a very hungry bunch.

I'll tell you one thing, this Hampton team is better than last years team. We should be at full strenght next Friday. We'll give it every once we've got and if that ain't good enough, big deal,we gave it our best. I for one, don't have any doubt ,we can pull it off.

 

With your record and coming off a big win over a very good Coalfield team there is no doubt you have a talented football team.

All of us should and are proud of our kids, and all we can ask is for them to do their best.

Hopefully we can have an injury free game and whoever wins can finish this year with a win in Murfreesboro.

Pujo,

I believe we'll give these boys more of a game than they are going to give us credit for. The way I see it is that our defense is a good 14 points better this year than the last, our offense is a good 14 to 18 points better this year over last, since we're not a one dimensional team. That will get us close. Add in the excellent fan support, equal to or greater than we had last night and we're not out of reach of being in the game at the end.

 

I'll admit, it'll take a superb effort, not like last night's performance, much like the one we had against Harriman. That was as close to a perfect game as we've played concerning penalties, stupid mistakes and turnovers are concerned. I think we've got it in us to geterduuuuuuunnnnnnn.

    • 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.
