Recommended Posts

CoachT has chosen 23 Week 0 games, using last year's season records, to use for our initial 2013 Big Ones Contest. Each week or so throughout the summer I will add another 3 games to the list in order to give us plenty of time to discuss each round of games. A few other games may be added later.

 

Each week you can check out last year's schedules and results for the teams listed by going to their 2012 schedules.

After following the discussion on our message boards and making your decision you can make your picks in our Big Ones Contest

This game will be an excellent way for both teams to open the season. The Eagles took a three-touchdown lead over MUS early in the state semifinals, only to see that advantage evaporate after an Owl onslaught. MUS won on a late field goal and dashed the Eagles' championship hopes. While both teams have lost their quarterbacks, they return talented rosters full of guys who will be amped up for this one.

 

It's far too early to make a prediction, but I will forecast an intense, close game.

Agree 100%. This is definitely the game of the week in the midstate for Week Zero (with CBHS at MBA a close second). MUS showed up at Ensworth for Week Zero last year loaded for bear; they were in excellent game shape and ready to roll. Good luck to both teams - it should be a doozy!!!

I've watched lots of film of each of these teams in the past few weeks. MUS has a brilliant spread attack that, at times, reminds one of Oregon. If the Owls' new quarterback can get acclimated to being at the helm, they'll be very dangerous. What stood out most to me about MUS was the quickness and ferocity of the linebackers. It's a smart group that knows how to get after it.

 

BA will be strong this year. As always, the skill positions are stocked. There are several talented returning starters, but the key will be the Eagles' ability to integrate the first-year starters into their scheme. Staver, Ramsey and Wade would be tough for any team to replace.

 

I look forward to seeing these teams battle under the Vanderbilt Stadium lights. The winner will gain lots of momentum and the loser lots of wisdom.

I am in Memphis on business and ran around the track yesterday during mus football practice ... Advantage BA...

??? Care to elaborate a bit?

 

I am astonished that you, an "out-of-town businessman," were allowed to run around the MUS track during their practice.  Did BA afford you the same opportunity to watch them?  If so, you must be some football celebrity.

Tell them you're a sportswriter...just don't tell them all you write for is CoachT.

    • 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.
