This is a big game for both teams. If Crockett wants to have any chance of going to the playoffs they must win this game! Volunteer needs this win to snap a 17 game losing streak and what better game to do it on than a conference homecoming game.

Volunteer will build on last weeks offensive success and begin to throw the ball more and will also catch a few breaks with a couple of Pioneer redzone turnovers. Crockett will score some points but in the end Volunteer will hold off the Pioneers in the final minutes for an upset 29-27 win on homecoming. The goalposts could come down this Friday in Church Hill!

Crockett is the better of these two teams. But, if they do not show up to play they will get beat. I think this is going to be a close one. Volunteer may just break that streak. I remember a few years ago when Crockett beat Volunteer on a miracle play to break a long losing streak. Volunteer may return that favor.

way to go falcons! the boys played hard and deserved it. just to bad they were not coached hard. the coaches played the second half not to loose but they should coach to win! volunteer looked great the 1st half and have the numbers to show for it. then came the 2nd half along with the same old Rider and coaching. Best wishes and a speedy recovery to Devin, bad thing is it may have been prevented but when you open second half and run the same play 8 out of 10 plays you put the players in bad situations. main point is volunteer's boys showed up and played hard for 4 quarters, i just expect the coaching staff to do the same. GO FALCONS!

Just a quick question...

If you were Crocketts coach would you have gone for the long FG at the end of the game or maybe try something and perhaps win the game? Honestly, I think he made the right call by going for the long FG. Great game by both teams!

 

I really believe Crockette just had some bad luck, What I saw was sloppy play by a Volunteer Team who had some luck on their side. Volunteer could not take care of the blitz, one punt was almost blocked went ten yards and bounced off a crockette player for a turn over. I would have loved to be happy but I could not forget the terrible times, penalties, missed blocks, etc. I think Crockette has some good players, They have been a few mistakes away from a very good team the last several years in basketball and football. I wish them luck, they have had it rough like us.

I was really glad to see Volunteer get the win, but let's face it: they got very lucky.

 

The real thing that's killed them all year was their secondary not being able to cover receivers. They faced a Crockett team who couldn't throw the ball worth a crap: 0-6 with 3 INTs. That was about the only reason they won. Crockett still shredded them on the ground, but the turnovers and pure luck kept Volunteer on top.

 

I will say that Harris and the receivers have looked a lot better than I thought they ever would this season. I was really down on them after watching them through the first 2 games, and I still think they've got room for improvement, but they've been getting the job done the past couple of weeks. That's good to see.

    • 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.
    • An FYI: To see how an opponent has done against another opponent since 2001- go to the game by clicking on one of the teams. Click the G beside the game. For example, Milan: The info will show you the previous matchups and other info.
    • All these college signees went yo other schools for 3 years, were getting college offers then transferred to Bearden. It’s not like this staff did much to develop them.    The BBall coaches son and the Seymour transfer were some of the most talented QBs in the region, and you guys developed them into QBs who might complete one pass a game.
