Coach Bosken said after the game his team couldn't tackle.

 

Legend has it Davy Crockett died with his hands clutching knives buried in the guts of two Mexican solders. 4 others dead enemy solders were near him as well. In other words Davy Crockett died with his boots on...fighting to the end. He didn't whine that he was overwhelmed and it wasn't fair. I think if you asked him [if you could], he would want his name back.

Let me guess, you're a Crockett fan?    1. I don't really care what the score at the half was. Would you rather SH have played their 2nd and 3rd string the entire game? Would that have made the Pion

You can't bring knives on the field and its hard to run with boots on.

In blowout games (like this one is going to be), it is very difficult to predict a final score.    SH will not play starters in the 2nd half, it might be better to just predict the halftime score, so here goes....    SH  48-0 at the half.       Final might be something like 60-13, but the halftime score is what really matters, that is the result of the 1's against the 1's.

SH-63 Crockett-27. Final.

 

Toppers were up 21-0 five minutes into the game, then I don't know what the heck happened. It seemed like they just lost focus. Crockett hung around for a good while. I'll give the Pioneers credit though. They are definitely a much better team than last year. TK Hill is legit. He slashed the Topper defense for some huge gains and ended up with 235 yards on 21 carries. The Crockett QB is also much-improved from last year.

 

SH is going to have to come out a lot more focused next week against MO West if they want to win.

Kind of surprising to hear that after watching them barely squeak by East a couple of weeks ago.  Hill did put up similar numbers against them though.

 

Science Hill will have a tough stretch for the next few weeks against Mo' West, Siegel, and BA.  They'll have to maintain their focus.  Siegel who may very well be 0-4 when they play Science Hill will have to be taken seriously, especially since they played Riverdale, Ooltewah, Oakland, and will play McCallie next week.

Siegel will be battle hardened for sure but they are only a shell of a team they were last year. Graduation hit them hard. I think Science Hill will outscore them by a couple td's.

I knew Crockett would be better than last year. They deserve some props because they really have improved. TK Hill is going to be a real good one for them. He's just a sophomore from what I was told and to be honest, he impressed me more than Ethan Thomas from Elizabethton.

 

SH is really going to have to find their focus this week. They keep getting these big leads early in the game and then letting up. It happened vs Elizabethton last week and Crockett last night. And they have got to learn you never overlook an opponent, which they did with the Pioneers. In talking to some of the players this week, they were acting like the game vs Crockett was nothing more than a joke. It will be interesting to see how they come out next week vs Siegel. I think Carter and company will have them prepared.

      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.
