Powell @ Halls

I look for this to go down to the wire, just like it normally does. History says that this game is close, low scoring and the home field is huge.

 

This really is one of those games that you can throw out the record books and ignore the "spread", because it just doesn't matter.

I agree 100% with you HTV. Throw out the records and all the past this is always a chess match. Everyone enjoys these rivalries.

My main concern this year about Halls football is the offense. With Dowdy missing like Rico said we are finding our legs and we will get better. But it's the running game that concerns me most. We had that breakout run for 50+ last week but that was it. Not discounting that the Smokey Bears kept us contained but to keep us under a 100yard night at our house thats mighty unnerving.

Haven't heard of any players out as of yet, but several kids have been out at school in general.

 

 

Yep, and not just at Halls or Powell, either. The flu has hit every school hard over the last week or so.

 

There have been some rumors of the Halls/Powell game being rescheduled because of it. I was told a few minutes ago by someone who would know that there is no basis to the rumor. Besides, when would you reschedule it to? There isn't a common open date to reschedule it to and with college football starting this weekend, Saturday isn't a good option, either, unless you play it very early on Saturday morning, and that would only delay the game a few hours.

 

Unfortunately, you just have to line up and play with who can play. With this illness being as widely spread as it is both teams would likely be equally affected.

I don't think we could score 28 in a intrasquad. Just tough luck with the qb situation, thank God he survived the wreck. It will take some time for the new qb. I think he can do the job, it's just gonna take some time. But I don't think we will get 28 in any game, maybe South Doyle.

 

Rico don't be so hard on yourself or the boys. I've seen many Halls teams stumble early and really get it going by mid season. New young QB has to find his feet and his receivers have to help him which they will. Once the running game starts clicking this should open up the passing lanes again and vice versa. Remember these last two teams are always tough opponents and we played them close in each game. Clinton is now listed 4th or 5th in the state. So they were our Maryville game this year.

Some body please get the little feller a ladder so he can see what is going on out of the field. Backtoback delay calls - priceless. Let anybody else call the plays, just not the little un. In my years of watching football I aint never seen backtoback delay calls. Bet no one else has either.

Bring back the Beatles with there song, "HELP I NEED SOMEBODY (TO CALL THE PLAYS)". :DB)

    • And can you tell me who those two quarterbacks were, and every kid that was put into college from Bearden is a Bearden kid? It’s kind of why they graduated from Bearden.   and I would definitely not consider ETSU “waste”…
    • Most of this is complete gibberish. But the one part I could decipher is putting kids in college. This coaching staff hasn’t put a single Bearden kid in college. They completed wasted one of the best WRs in East TN and have ruined two talented QBs. All because they’re in over their heads. 
    • Well, I’d hope the new coaching staff thinks they are all that because they can always walk around the school, anytime they want, thinking that, especially for what they’ve done for the student athletes and the players, putting more kids in college in his first season than the old coaching staff did in numerous years combined, but we will just sweep over that because I know you don’t like facts. But trust me, nobody wanted Mr. Big britches, made the star player switch to quarterback, which is ultimately the reason he ended up transferring to play the position. He loved, but unfortunately, had to be at another school because Mr. Big Britches doesn’t like when a teenager knows more than him, but can’t expect much coming from a guy who used all class throwing pencils up into the ceiling and making fun of football kids who were failing class right to their face, and in front of numerous students, even projecting on the board most of the time.
    • After that first paragraph, I can see why you’re a TA and not a teacher. Have you made the move from South Knoxville to Bearden yet?    Maybe he left because he is an actual teacher and coach, and didn’t want to be associated with a group of foul mouthed middle school coaches who like to pretend they’re big time. 
    • Yeah and the coach is gone. Whole bizarre situation here. We played them a couple of times at MTSU last few years. She was a player for sure.
