So if we beat Marion by 28+ then y'all just didnt show up right?

 

This warrior doesn't make excuses, and y'all should win by 28+. One thing is for sure, this team won't be as talented as your but they will show up for sure. Likely this game will be decided on if mc can force several turnovers, because our pass defense has been horrible all year. These fairweather fans that only come out when we make the quarterfinals may make bold predictions and make excuses, but I will not.

Correct TTP. If Marion can mount some type effective pass rush and, gulp, finally tighten up on their downfield pass defense, it's game on. The way these boys have been hitting lately, turn overs will almost certainly come. Our defensive backs need to realize a ball in the air is theirs as much as it is the opponents. Just have never demonstrated they're willing to break on a pass play looking to intercept. Not the time to criticize though. Defense has shown improvement lately. A little more and they're legitimate contenders. FCS is in for a competitive ballgame Friday night. I don't have Babic's confidence yet but I'm getting there.

I don't know if 28+ is how much we should win by, but I do know that we will score a lot if y'all can't cover a pass. I think whoever wins the turnover battle will have a huge advantage and usually turnovers happen because a good defense causes them, not that the other teams offense didnt "show up." I thinks Marion's best chance to win this game is to go into the fourth quarter with either the lead or only down by 1 score. Our starters have only played 2 full games this entire year and conditioning could become a factor if its a close game. I don't think Marion can let us score quickly and get a 3+ TD lead, if that happens it will be a very long game for y'all cause I don't see our starters coming out of the game. They need to play for 4 quarters even if it is a blow out

Mc will have to mount some kind of effective pass rush or it will be a long game. Ccs threw for over 300 yard and they are terrible. The defense was much improved last week. Hopefully we can get some of those onside kicks recovered. I have no doubt our offense will score some points, but we have to be able to get 2 or 3 turnovers as well. I said a few weeks ago this will be a mercy rule type game but I may be backing off of that a little. What base offense does friendship use? They go out of the spread?

Old Pirate says the Warriors need to take a few notes from the Pirates with these privates. FCS came to the Speedway and their super star cared more about running out of bounds than running north & south after the Pirates earholed him a few times.

Who was that super star? Lee Maasen always played pretty well against y'all. If you're talking about Rickaway, everyone knew he didn't like getting hit. It's more about the player then it is the team the "super star" plays for

    • 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.
