Powell after receiving home-field advantage will host Walker Valley in the first round. After doing a little bit of research on Walker Valley, I think Powell will come out on top. Powells defense is excellent at making the other teams offense make mistakes. And from what I've heard, thats what tends to happen to WV. Fumbles, INTs, And a slower but big line could hurt them, depending on how they play. #3 Kier Houston has really stepped is game up and is gonna need to even more this game. WVs defense tends to stay back and not blitz as much. So makin good choices is key to this victory. Im hopin for a big night out of Andrew Hansen, like he had against Clinton, Tyler Drummer, and Devin Collins. So if defense does their part and offense does theirs Powell will win especially with the home-field advantage.

I never thought that Powell would end up playing Walker Valley (since no one expected them to beat Cleveland), but they really played an excellent game on Friday night. As explosive as Cleveland is, Powell will present a lot of that same explosiveness against WV. Kier Houston continues to impress me. The way the defense has played in the 2nd half for the last 3 weeks has really impressed me. If that trend continues, Powell should win this game.

Walker Valley is a pretty good team. Athletes all over the field, big line, strong defense. Has a problem turning over the ball, but did a pretty good job of holding on to the ball Friday night. Best Player would have to be #15 Brice Sharp. Skill players are quick, not going to throw alot of deep balls, lots of short passes but recievers have to ability to make yards after catch. Nothing fancy on defense, going to be physical and hard hitting. Still learning how to win when they aren't playing their best. Not going to outscore anybody in a shootout, rely on defense to keep them in the game. GO MUSTANGS

I can assure you that NOBODY from Powell is taking Walker Valley lightly in any shape, form, or fashion. Any team that is able to defeat Cleveland has to have athletes and be able to execute. I expect a close, tough game on Friday night.

 

I agree, HTV. Powell should expect a battle from WV. No team from here on out can be taken lightly. I think this group knows that they have to fight hard for everything they achieve. GO PANTHERS!

This is a interesting game. Powell is a very strong team out of Region 3, that can score and score in bunches like they did against Clinton. Walker Valley not a overly powerful team but the can be dangerous. If the Walker Valley team that showed up and played Rhea shows up at Powell, then Powell will get the win pretty easily. However if the Walker Valley team that shows up and played Cleveland and Red Bank then it will be a good close game. Walker Valley does have trouble turning the ball over like they did against Rhea with 7 ints. If they don't turn the ball over they should give Powell a run for their money. I would like to see Walker Valley get the win, but Powell may just be to good for Walker Valley.

    • 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.
    • An FYI: To see how an opponent has done against another opponent since 2001- go to the game by clicking on one of the teams. Click the G beside the game. For example, Milan: The info will show you the previous matchups and other info.
    • All these college signees went yo other schools for 3 years, were getting college offers then transferred to Bearden. It’s not like this staff did much to develop them.    The BBall coaches son and the Seymour transfer were some of the most talented QBs in the region, and you guys developed them into QBs who might complete one pass a game.
