Both have played Meigs. Both games were blowouts, GB winning and RW losing. Both games ended 42-7. My question is what happened to RW in the Meigs game? Based on those two games, I think you have to go with GB at home.

I WOULD LOVE TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENED IT THAT GAME!I was completely blindsided by that one.BUT i said after last yr if Meigs got some coaching they have the talent.Well they got the coach maybe he has them believing they CAN win.Heck they gave a good McMinn Central team a great game,only lost by two.GCA lost to tbe same Central team by one.So who knows they are 15-18 yr old kids,never know whats going on in their heads!

Dakota Ricker. Ricker is a senior "athlete" type player who was recovering from shoulder surgery and did not play in the first three games. He played against RW....Scored 4 touchdowns. Was the Times Free Press Player of the week. Against Central....he had a great one handed catch for a TD and an interception. The sad news is that he severely injured his knee in the game against Central.

Rocker is a great ath. but the kid can't carry the load both ways. Four years have proved that playing football.don't believe his knee is blow out.

 

One night against Rockwood proved otherwise. Was released on a very limited basis against Greenback. Touched the ball 3, maybe 4 times, scored once. Was on track for another big game against Central. Maybe the new coach has him playing up to his potential.

Meigs' defense is playing much better. Not saying that if they played Greenback again that they'd hold them to 7 points and less than a hundred yards, but I think it would be a lot less lopsided.

Scary game for both teams.  I have seen them but up close and personal this year.  Two very talented teams.  Both very physical.  Both well coached.  Home field goes a long way, but remember Rockwood did go to Oneida and win.  Oneida went to Greenback and won.  Maybe home field means little?  

 

But after evaluating both, I would have to lean to the Greenback side in a 14-7, 20-14 kind of score.

I'm beginning to wonder about the home field thing this year myself. Every season seems to have its unusual twist & this seems to be the theme for us. We're 1-1 at home & 3-0 on the road with 2 of those wins at Hampton & Greenback, neither are known to be very easy to get outta town with a win.

I'm gonna tell you who is going to win this game.......later this week.  Although I feel confident who it is going to be, I just gotta let the Ju-Ju Cloud clear up a little bit.  One thing I feel strongly about though......GB has better overall presonnel.  Rockwood has their work cut out for them because GB is gonna know which kid they have to keep an eye on.....!  For that matter, Rockwood probably does too...!

    • 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.
