How about the extra cost of playing additional games in the playoff. Maybe they should just flip a coin after regular season and crown a champion.

 

 

Good Grief....just let me know when and where the Rebels are playing and I will be there. If the White Station team can't make it, I'm sure the Warriors would love to suit up one more week.

It will be no big deal for MUS as they will probably just take their Leer Jets to Cookeville, but for Union City, Milan, and White Station I think the extra milage is not fair to them. The playoffs should be in the Center of the State just like the State Capitol is. Why not play these games at Vanderbilt?

 

When did the state capital move from Nashville to Murfreesboro, which is the center of the state.

 

If your going to complain that much, get your midol, grab your maxi pad and get over it. I have to travel an extra 50 miles but it will be worth it because it will be a better atmosphere.

 

Murfreesboro actually was the State Capital for about eight years during the early 1800's. Also MTSU's stadium is exactly one mile from the monument where the exact geographic center of the state is.

 

It really is not relevant as MOST will not be at the game where ever it is, but will be watching it on TV. Whether one places the TV in the exact center of the house or the east or west side of it is solely dependant on the viewer. :lol:

EXCELLENT post LostOldDad. I would follow my Tornadoes anywhere without complaint. Put this game in West Tennessee; it still won't add anything to the outcome of the game.

 

GO REBELS!! GO TORNADOES!!

This is so typical of some people . . . . you would not be happy if you were hung with a new rope. Be grateful your team won the opportunity to travel to Cookeville. Quit whining! This is not a time to be negative, it's a time to celebrate & get behind your team that has worked hard to earn a trip to the State Championship! Good luck to all teams.

I'll tell you what's not fair - Alcoa and Maryville don't play on the same day.

 

I wish the TSSAA would just put the 3A and 6A games on the same day so folks in Blount County don't have to make two trips or spend the night to see them play. Plus, they are basically charging us double to watch them play.

 

It's just not fair. :thumb:

What moron decided to move the Championship Games from the Center of the State? Really a disadvantage to the West Tennessee Teams by doing this.

 

I guess Independence was at a disadvantage when they traveled to west TN to play Arlington. On wait, Indy won that game.

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

Yeah they won. This still means nothing, as far as the distance/time traveled. It is a disadvantage, and this is a fact. I do however agree: 1) that if you make it be happy to be there, and make the most of the opportunity, and 2) if you don't want it somewhere do not attend, then they make less and might move it.

Hey mafia, congrat to you and wilco on a great season, but I can't say I'm sorry wilco got beat at home. Especially by a much more inferior WEST TN football team, from an area of inferior football. :thumb: Somethings are simply priceless. :thumb:

      Who vandalized Maryville's Football Field?

      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.
