Dont really know much about Olive Branch other than they are big, fast, strong, and athletic. I think I have heard this song recently. Bulldogs are going to have to get some help from some of the #2s. Need some reserves to step up and make a bigger contribution. Too many starters are playing both ways. Injury bug is starting to creep up on us. Special teams have given up three blocked punts in the last two weeks. Can't continue to give good teams great field position and expect the defense to go out and clean it up everytime. Need to focus this week on the small things. Stop thinking about the outcome, score, standing, or playoffs. The focus needs to be broken down to the smallest element within the game. Focus on the play. Dominate the play. Concentrate on things like running perfect routes, stepping out with the correct foot, assignments, watching the ball into your hands, wrapping up on tackles. Basics. But more impotantly is the mental aspect. Most of all believe in yourselves. We as fans do! Work hard this week in practice. Challenge yourselves to get better every rep. Go Dawgs!!!

Smyrna really started the season with a meat grinder of a schedule. Olive Branch is ranked #4 in MS...they will be a very good team that is loaded with athletes. I thought Smyrna needed to come out at least 2-2 from these first four games so they should be playing with a lot of intensity.

 

If Smyrna can get healthy I think they'll win it. If they aren't healthy and are playing a lot of guys both ways OB will pull away in the 2d half.

Looks like Olive Branch just took a major blow. News station in Memphis just reported that Olive Branch's football program has been put on probation for playing 4 ineligible players who had transferred from Melrose HS in Memphis over the summer. Going to be interesting to see how this affects them.

The video i have seen they are stacked. Four players is not a set back of much magnitude. Still going to be a very talented team. My Bulldogs are banged up a little and they had the week off. That doesnt make things better. Still I think it will be an all out battle. Go Dawgs!!!

    • 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.
