I come on here expecting to see a huge thread on Bearden's 93-43 Region Champ. win over Oak Ridge...yes a 50 point win in the championship yet all I see are threads about teams that are jokes compared to Bearden. I saw them play Maryville 3 times this year and watched several other games including the Oak Hill game and game tonight and without a doubt this is the best team to come through East TN in a LOOOOOOONG time. This team is so athletic and plays above the rim and pressures team constantly.

They are impressive. I just hope the Bearden coach doesn't wear the players out by subbing them in and out every 2 minutes - pretty bizarre. It will be interesting to see how they play the Memphis teams, but I really expect them to win the state this year. They have been tested and blown out several very good teams this year (AE, Farragut, Oak Ridge).

That team must've been pretty sick, but I doubt they had the supporting cast BHS does. BHS runs 10 guys in and out and just runs teams out of the gym. If you try to run with them, you're screwed. This team has every starter over 6'4 except for the PG and they all play above the rim. I've never seen more of an athletic team...they only lost to the #2 team in the country by 8 points guys. If they win state then they have an argument for the best team out of East TN in a LOOOOOOOng time.

Raleigh has the best chance to beat Bearden out of memphis IMHO. They got leadership and great coaching. Anthony Jones, Gentry Hines, and Tank Brown will do some damage. Melrose and White Station easily have enough talent to compete/beat Bearden though.

 

I agree about Raleigh Egypt, but.... after watching White Station UPSET Melrose -- I would not be surprised at all to see White Station defeat Bearden, and every other non-Mps team, during the State Tournament!

 

Talent & size-wise, Melrose likely matches up better....

 

Despite their shocking loss to W.S, I still believe that Melrose has the best team in Mphs (horrific FT shooting DOOMED Melrose vs W.S). The problem for Melrose, however, is this: they will NOT defeat Raleigh Egypt in Raleigh Egypt's gym!

 

By the way, Liberty will NOT defeat White Station AT White Station.

----------------------------------------------------------

 

Raleigh Egypt and White Station will be the West TN (Mphs) representatives. One of them will, in all probability, will meet up with Bearden during the State tournament. I will NOT bet against either of these two Mphs teams, especially White Station!

SportsFan07,

 

I can appreciate your enthusiasm for Bearden, but-- you might want to slow your roll!!!!

----------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Bearden might have a great team but, I guarantee you-- Bearden will not blow out our Mphs representative(s), and steam-roll to the State Title! As a matter of fact, do not be shocked should Bearden LOSE to the Mphs team.

 

It that happens...Trust me, it would NOT be an upset!!!

    • RR, you might remember. Didn’t someone hide the kicking shoe that game? It seems I remember we had missed a kick the week before, and we needed all the points we could get. We thought we had a better chance going for two, so $?&@$ hid the shoe after the first miss that game. No one on our sideline looked for it very hard.
    • I will never forget the 1983 Heritage vs Maryville game. I remember driving home and listening to WGAP. Can't remember the announcers name. He asked Coach Story why he kept going for 2? Story told him " Why didn't you ask Renfro that last year"
    • TSSAA will let them all go to Mase.
    • Well nothing new, the Mustangs are really talented again this coming season!  They very well could go undefeated in regular season.  We shall see what happens in postseason.  I think the path to state title game is a little clearer than years past.  I think the Stangs are going to be really good and I think the traditional teams around in 2A are not going to be as strong.  It should be a fun season!
