This will be the Friday Night Main Event on the Duck next Week! Huge district eight implications here. The Falcons are the only remaining team that controls it's own destiny being the lone remaining unbeaten in district team. Should Shelbyville win this game and run the district table, they would need help from Lincoln County, Lawrence County, or Coffee County. A Shelbyville win would still leave them with one loss and in a three way tie with Lincoln County and Tullahoma.

 

Now, it the case of a three way tie, obviously each of these teams would of beaten one of the other two so the next tie breaker would be total wins. Lincoln County, having loss three non district games already would drop them out of the tie breaker. You would then revert back to the previous tie-breaker which is head to head. This would give the district title to Tullahoma. Obviously Shelbyville needs Tullahoma to pick up that second district loss in order for them to have a shot at a district eight title, regardless of what they do the remainder of the season.

 

This is all speculative upon Shelbyville running the table. Should be a great game as Shelbyville picked up a huge win last night over a Franklin County team that has played well of late. We're very excited about broadcasting this one and hope to see you folks there at 4:00 pm for our Tailgate Broadcast at 4:00 pm on 93.9 FM!

I've been going back and forth on it.  Really tough game to call.  Shelbyville started out really well, then lost that game to Tullahoma that most of the Eagle fans felt they should of won.   Franklin was definitely better than both these teams, but the Shelbyville loss to a smaller Giles County team by such a large margin is cause for concern.   Lincoln County would be a slight favorite on a neutral field in my opinion.  They say home field gives you three points (guess that's only if you have a kicking game and Shelbyville struggled in that department when I last saw them).   It's totally a toss up for me.

Nobody seems to have any predictions on this game.  I expect a hard fought game.  Whoever jumps on the other one first should be able to control the game.  And we all know the Falcons have struggled with getting started all year.  Hopefully that changes tomorrow night.  Go Falcons!!!

    • Deja vu all over again, 7 yrs apart. SMDH Does anybody talk to each other?
    • OK, well, that’s because two quarterbacks can’t start. That’s football 101. The main quarterback won the starting job, so he was on varsity, and the Seymour transfer did not win the starting job. He played some varsity. He was mainly junior varsity, and he balled out when healthy, so for the starting quarterback who’s been starting varsity since his freshman year, if you have any form of proof that he’s gotten worse, somehow, whether that means stats or whatnot, please feel free to share.
    • 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.
