I thought we looked decent. We made a lot of mistakes, if we are going to make a deep run we are going to have to work on our fundamentals. Can't get in a habitat of fumbling. I thought #27 Norwood looked the best in the backfield.

 

 

 

How many times did Norwood fumble the ball against Martin.

I agree on #15 should get more touches he was literally a step away from breaking it on every touch but one.  Huge catch that got us to mid field.  Not many high school kids would have hauled that one in.  we are young, we are talented and good times to come and swensen will get it all figured out good coach.

We do have a good coach! I'm not going to bad mouth any of them. I don't have any boys playing, so I don't have anything to gain or lose, except I enjoy watching them play and want them to win. They know these players better than me, and know how they practice. I do however see some of the players that seem to have a huge impact every time they see the field that are not playing as much. The boys that are playing every play are playing their hearts out. This will be a fun team to watch this year. The last 3 min. last night showed that we could open it up a little more.

Oh I'm in full agreement that we have the skill and speed this year that we have not had in the past few years and we should get out on the corner a bit more as well would be nice.  We had the warbrittons that ran on energy heart and 2nd and 3rd effort.  those boys were a blast to watch.  but we have some diff talents this year and years to come.  Swenson must have a big joker smile on his face each night when he thinks about his depth and talent coming up.

against Martin Westview Huntingdon put the ball on the Ground.  against UC  same players put the ball on the ground. --keep doing it and it is killing the team.   if that is the way it keeps going then look for a .500 season or 6-4........Camden and Milan and even Dresden come game 10.   Go to a slot offense and get the ball in the players hand with the speed.  upperclassman underclassman I dont care but the fumbles are killing the TEAM.   Pride by the coach needs to go. That offense does not work against the  better teams.  It reminds me of the movie TinCup when the golfer could win the US Open and refused to hit the ball and ended up losing by several strokes. Same thing in football.  Keep running the same plays and the D catches on.  Same double handoff same qb draw same old pass.  hardheaded.

Stangs can't keep going minus 3 turnover ratio and win games.  Would love to see what would happen if  #3 & #15 get hands on ball more, which are capable to make it through to the 2nd level of defense and things happen.  Gallant team effort, but have to protect ball.  Defense only stopped UC one time all night other than the fumble

WOW.. I ve been out of town on Business to come back and the Mustangs have only put up 13 points the last two weeks.  Plus the defense has givin up 61 points.  What happened to the offense?  And the defense?

 

Please dont tell me that they are still running the same plays.  Man it does not work.  13 point  Really

    • 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.
