Lawrence Co at Tullahoma

The Lawrence Co Wildcats travel to Tullahoma Friday nite to play in the Wildcats homecoming game. The winner advances on to the playoffs and the loser is finished for the season. It seems thats the case for both teams on a regular basis when they play each other. Lawrence Co beat Whites Creek last Friday nite and the Cobras beat Tullahoma earlier in the season. Tullahoma is trying to end a 2 game losing streak while Lawrence Co ended a 4 game losing streak last Friday nite. This could be the last game ever played at old Wilkins stadium. These two old rivals have played each other every year as far as I can remember. This should be an exciting game with so much on the line for both teams. I'm hoping Tullahoma can stay focused against Lawrence Co with all the distractions of homecoming week.

This exact same scenario played out last year in the season finale, with Tullahoma pulling out a 28-24 win on a Chris Bishop touchdown run with 41 secons remaining.

 

Both teams are better this year. Lawrence Co. has a legitimate running game this year where last year it relied almost exclusively on its fine QB Garrick Barnett. Barnett is gone now but the balance of the offense is better.

 

Tullahoma has lost two straight to the Region 5-4A two-headed monster, but nobody on this team is ready to call it a season. With this being the final Region 5-4A in history for both schools, and with this being the final game in the history of Wilkins Stadium, and with the this being Homecoming 2008 at THS, well it stands to reason this should be a great atmosphere.

 

We invite all you folks from Lawrenceburg to make the trip up 64 and cheer your Wildcats on as they attempt to clinch their only playoff berth in the 12-year history of our region. We will treat you well and serve you some great food and an outstanding band.

 

Tullahoma folks this is a night to fill up those stands and cheer your team to victory. Yes its going to be cold but you have all winter, spring, and summer to warm up. The time is now to come to the aid of your youth!!!

    • 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.
