These are two good West Tn teams. Humbolt in a close one...

Humboldt always seems to get a tough first round game! Talking to some Memphis fans Monday night about WW they were saying without a doubt that CU was the better team! I don't know about that have not seen them play! But i do know that i bet WW don't go 12 deep! I think if Humboldt plays like they been playing Humboldt comes away with the win! But i just hope Humboldt free throws get better! Good Luck to Humboldt and all West Tn!! :thumb:

P & G, what does Westwood bring to the table?

 

They are not very deep......They had three guys score in double figures against Union City....Holt had 15...Zachary Smith had 20 and David Pledge had 11....Pledge comes off the bench...They had one maybe two guys in the 6'3"-6'4" range but Union City out rebounded them...Union City turned them over 16 times...They had trouble when UC pressed them hard...UC couldn't press for very long periods of time because UC was in foul trouble...They are quick....Union City just didn't shoot the ball very well or they would be in this field of 8....

 

The Vikes should pound the ball inside with Dunbar and Bryson...Campbell will be the best athlete on the floor...

I don't usually make predictions but here goes, Humboldt,providing they don't implode,wins comfortably. I do think Westwood is better than City,narrowly, but Scotts Hill(yes I'm a homer, but also a realist) had a horrible game shooting the ball or would have beaten Westwood.They handled their pressure,got off plenty of open looks outside that have fallen all season that just didn't drop,and missed a lot of shots in the paint too.Westwood has some talented personel,no superstars,and not much of an organized offense.Don't get me wrong, overlook them and they're good enough to beat anyone in the tourney on a bad night,but put forth a typical Humboldt effort and It'd suprise me if the Vikings leave M'boro. early this year :lol::thumb:

I have a feelin this will turn out to be a close one but ill go with the vikes on the W.. Humboldt normally seems to let unfamiliar teams play at the same level with them year in year out and i dont think this year will be any different..but i think if we out rebound them, get on the run & get hot from the field we will take this one by 10 or so.. but who knows?

I know that Hbt scrimmaged Liberty earlier this week and got beat pretty badly...However, Liberty's awfully good and will help prepare us for the tourney...Also heard rumors of a possible scrimmage with Bolivar sometime this weekend..

 

I'll take Humboldt by 12...If Humboldt is hitting their outside shots (mainly Brooks), it'll be worse..

I think this is the potential championship game. I believe most Humboldt fans thought they would get this draw. As for the game I think WW actually has one guy listed at 6 5", a tall skinny kid who plays the post so The size advantage for Humboldt might not be as relevant, but, Humboldt will be the deepest most athletic team on the floor. For the umpteenth time in the last 6 years...... :thumb:

 

GO VIKINGS. BRING IT HOME!!!!!!!!!

    • 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.
