Dins, our game was very exciting. We had a PK stopped early, but we scored on a great free kick and a pull out in the first half. Diego ran through our defense to score in the last 5 or so in the first half for a 2-1 lead at half. In the second half their keeper played a long ball that bounced into our box and we miscommunicated and they got through to make it 2-2. With about 15 left we broke through and chipped the keeper to go up 3-2. Then in the last five, OR had a PK that our keeper made a HUGE save on to preserve the win. I have a few more grey hairs today. OR maintained possession very well but had trouble finishing with a few post balls. Also, we played way too defensive in the second half trying not to concede the goal. Hope the boys learned you can't sit on a lead or it will eventually go away. Good luck to the Soccercats against West on thursday.

Farragut/Maryville game was actually a very good game. The score is not at all indicative of how the game was played. It was a 0-0 up until about 12-13 minutes to go in the game. Farragut got a through ball past the defense and buried it. At that point Maryville started pushing everyone up for more pressure because a tie would have done Maryville no good in the district standings. So, after a few near misses, Farragut got 2 with about a minute to go and then a 3rd sometime in injury time.

 

Maryville had their chances early and they kept getting chances late by spreading the ball and with quick 1-2 touch passes. But in the end, Maryville can not finish. If they do figure out how to score, they could compete in this district, but until then it will be hard.

So...are you saying that Farragut was lucky to escape with a "W" (like the WEST game)?

Is Farragut the best in the district? Best in the STATE??????????

    • 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.
