Some people try to find things in this game that don't exist, like Alcoa losing in the Semifinals.

Alcoa has really only had one kinda close game in the semis, and they were never really in any serious danger of losing that game.

Alcoa in recent Semifinal games:

 

 

AHS 55 Elizabethton 20

 

AHS 34 Elizabethton 7

 

AHS 30 Marion County 14

 

AHS 38 DCA 0

 

AHS 42 Smith County 14

 

AHS 31 Tyner Academy 14

 

AHS 35 David Lipscomb 14

 

I really don't see the *cough* Choke factor coming into play..

It's not gonna happen.

I expect this to be a fantastic game. Alcoa is 100% the favorite. Upperman deserves to be respected though. Connor York is a great kid and an athlete that is a privilege to watch. Upperman also has very good linemen and the Butler kid is a solid back. I would be shocked if Upperman won, but anyone who doesn't think it is possible hasn't seen these boys play. Alcoa is Alcoa though so they should win. Good luck to both teams and congratulations on 2 fantastic seasons.

Which further solidifies my prior post.  I'm not going to say its going to be close or its not i'm just saying if its close in the second half it "could" happen. :popcorneater:

I agree with the goon about the vols sadly. I am a vol even when we lose. The same thing goes for UHS. Players on the field matter more than anything. Coaches 2nd. Ours will do fine and if we execute like we have 13 times this year we feel we can win. I agree with termite as well. We have had 13 big games in a row. If it wasnt a rivalry game it was to stay undefeated. You guys have in my opinion the best QB&TB we have ever played. We are excited for this challenge. Physical is expected and lets just hope all these boys are just real sore saturday as usual lol.

The "Silver Point" flash !!!!! You're just about in Smith County.

    • 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.
