It is though. Don't get me wrong it's good pizza, but what pizza place isn't good? It's always crowded and it's expensive as heck. The last time I went in there was before the Oak Ridge/Science Hill game was in 2012. I was by myself and got a small pizza and drink and spent over 15$. The other thing that stinks about big ed's is they don't have a diverse menu. If you go to any other pizza place in the country you can get salads,chicken wings, and bread sticks/cheesy bread but not at Big Ed's. They just have pizza on paper plates.

Ate there after a baseball tournament this summer. You're right, it's expensive. It was good. But I can get good pizza a lot cheaper.

I was going to the beach for vacation but decided to go to the lake instead. Its a lot cheaper. Besides, its just water.

HarHar. I still say pizza is pizza. And I say that as a guy that has worked in a pizza joint. Pizza is always good, unless we are talking about the junk that passes for pizza in school cafeterias. Don't get me wrong, I like big ed's. It is a cool little hole in the wall you want to go to when you are in OR. But it is nothing like people crack it up to be. It's just another pizza joint except it doesn't have chicken wings, salad, or cheese sticks on the menu. Edited by Governors91

Me and a friend of mine went to Big Ed's Pizza while in route to Gatlinburg a few years ago. I thought it was good. Was it the best ever, no. Was it worth the extra few dollars, in my opinion yes!! I love little hole in the wall local joints that do not have the national advertising. I would definitely go back if I could find it.

 

Side football note, I would like to play Oak Ridge again in a state title game. Gallatin/Oak Ridge would bring back a lot of memories.

Y'all played us in 91 and then turned around and played our next door neighbors Clinton the year after. I wonder how many times two teams from the same county (Anderson) (Oak Ridge & Clinton) have went to the state title game in consecutive years in the same class? I bet that hasn't happened much if ever!

    • 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.
