Bearden and Maryville should be another war. Bearden has the athletic advantage. Lot of great athletes on that team. Maryville has the huge edge in guard play and shooting. Jordan Damron is a great guard. If he was 6'3 he would have every school in the country after him. His size will keep him from playing SEC level basketball.

 

Aaron Douglas is playing a little hurt right now. You can tell his foot injury is bothering him. If he steps up along with Jay Reynolds Maryville should win.

 

This will be another great game. Can't wait to see them play wednesday night.

This should be a great game. Hopefully, Blake Jenkins will be at 100 % for Bearden. It really looked like his wrist was bothering him after he got hurt against Farragut.

 

As for Maryville, they are playing well and they are definitely NOT a one man team. Any of their starters are capable of putting up big numbers on a given night. Also, sophomores Corum Sanford and Cameron Langley are playing pretty well of late off the bench.

 

I certainly hope the Rebels can get it done but it wouldn't shock me if Bearden takes this game.

I'll go with Bearden in this one.

 

Blevins is an excellent Coach so I think he will have a game plan that will limit Damron. Bearden is a very talented team with depth. I realize Maryvile has some good size but they will have match up problems with Beardens size and better basketball players in the post. It will be very difficult to beat a good team 3 times in a row.

 

Although this is not an elimination game the outcome is very important to future success in the post season. More than likely the loser will face Oak Ridge in the semis of the Region which will spell the end of the line for either Bearden or Maryville.

r&b63 it is very rare that i agree with you but you are right that it is hard to beat a good team 3 times in the same year. it is hard enough to beat them twice which might play into Maryvilles hand if they do loose this one and have to face OR in the semis. either way theese will be 2 good ball gameswhoever has to face oak ridge and then again maybe each other for the 4th time this year.

I dont get where that last statement comes from either of these teams can beat Oak Ridge. They lost to Powell at home, and the region is at Bearden so they have a huge advantage. Maryville, lost to Oak Ridge early without Douglas, Maryville lost the rebounging battle by 15(that wont happen with AD), shot like 20%(wont happen again) Turned it over 20 times, so RandB63 please explain yourself.

 

I believe Bearden will win one of the 5 matchups between Maryville this year, i just hope it isnt the last one. MHS has beat BHS i think 5 or 6 in a row.

I have to go with Bearden in this one. I just don't think it's possible to beat a team like Bearden three times in the same season. Damron is a pretty spectacular player, but he's going to need a lot of help if they want to come out on top again.

 

Just a foot note-Maryville needs to come up with something a little more original to celebrate wins. LC has had that chant for more than a decade, and long before anyone else in the area.

For what it's worth ... that chant isn't original with LC either. Maryville College was doing it before LC ever did. I'm not sure where MC might have gotten it from ...

I agree that it is hard to beat a good team three times in the same year. But Maryville does have one of the best coaches in the state. So i will give them the advantage.

 

 

Maryville certainly has a very good coaching staff. But as far as the best in the state that could be debated. Blevins is a very good coach in his own right so Maryvilles Coaches and players will be facing a tough challenge. I will predict that Maryville will have to get more production from someone other than Damron as Bearden will have a plan that will limit his scoring.

      Who vandalized Maryville's Football Field?

      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.
