i used to have respect for OR, but when you beat people by 35 or more points and you still have you 1st team in during the 4th qtr, then thats when i throw it out the window. should have put 11 in the box over the center bet they would have come out then, i would have.... someone has got something to prove!!!!you know what is so great about wb football? no matter how good they play or how many games they win, their are still those rediculous people out there that never give them a chance. well this must be WB of old. lost 2 in a row by 1 point and one was questionable on a field goal that still gets replayed on the news. dont worry about it govs, your still my team. and i still think your the best team in the region you just havent got some breaks. but what do i know? i am just the guy up in the stands that has no clue about football and gets on here to pass the time away. one must look around and realize the region they are in(along with everyone else in the region) and say man thats the hardest region in east tn and maybe the state. well govs no one is giving you a chance again. imagine that.it was the same way when i played. i think its great. and i hope that you wouldnt want it any other way. OR is a good team no doubt, they always are... stop the running game and its in the bag. tackle like you can on defense and punish the ball carrier every play. they will lay down.....i promise.... good luck WB

Wow, hard to reply to this, but here goes... More than a few people are predicting a WB victory. So just not true that "nobody is giving you a chance." However, most Oak Ridge fans have been pretty quiet this year. It's still a wait and see thing with this team. They have a lot of upside, but if they come out unfocused it gets pretty ugly. That happened in the Clinton game and the Anderson County scrimmage. However, if they come out focused they can be very good. Outside of our favorite OR fan from FL, everyone thinks this will be a very tough game. One other thing: this team does not lay down or quit. We keep finding ways to win, scoring late in the game when we have to make a play. I do not know if we will win or not, but these Cats are a 4 quarter team. Go Cats!

    • 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.
