Brentwood Academy vs. Ensworth

Doesn't MBA have twice as many boys than Ensworth? That might tighten that merit scholarship ratio up some.

 

 

The number of boys is irrelevant as girls can be National Merit Scholars too. To set the record straight the MBA class of 2008 had 14 National Merit Scholars, with a large number of them ( I'm not sure exactly how many) being Finalists and receiving scholarships.

Your post is completely irrelevant. This is about the BA-EHS game. Back on topic.

 

After watching both of these teams play, it goes without saying this will be no blowout either way. Both teams are solid. Both teams are well coached and have some incredible athletes. To me, it what it boils down to is what happens in the trenches. Both have good lines, and Ensworth's may be a little underrated even. They are well coached by Ed Caudill, and he should have solutions for any problems the EHS line may encounter throughout the game. Brentwood Academy on the other hand, is simply put "big and good". They have the obvious advantage in my opinion, but I also thought that MBA would have that advantage at the line of scrimmage when they faced EHS. Ensworth manhandled MBA, and they should do the same in this game. Center Teddy Reeve got the best of Bubis for MBA, who is supposedly an ox, and one of the better noseguards in the area. He and his fellow lineman will have no problem handling the BA line in the end.

 

 

and as K Woodroof pointed out, this will definitely be worth the price of admission.

I posted the same article a couple of weeks ago and got hammered for posting it. I thought it was insightful as to the MBA-EHS rivalry.

 

 

If I remember correctly, you "got hammered for posting it" by myself and others because the thread had nothing to do with MBA at all, and it seems like every EHS thread ends up talking about MBA... kind of like this one for that matter.

 

Back to the game...

 

I expect this to be a physical battle on both sides of the ball. Expect Orleans and Tavarres to get their yards on the ground. However, I think BA will do a good job limiting EHS' big play ability, keeping this one close. I think Jefferson will make a big play through the air late in the game, and EHS will win a close one to move on to the State Championship Game.

 

EHS 28, BA 24

I know that girls can be National Merit Scholars, but girls don't play much football at Ensworth!

ensworth will DOMINATE ba, of course, because ba is a worthless team, and ensworth is amazing. watch ensworths line TAKE OUT ba.

 

 

lovehawaiisurf, I see that you are not grounded anymore and I see that your mother gave back your Ensworth issued laptop....try channeling some of that overpriced Ensworth education into making intelligent and mature posts.

    • 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.
