With no disrespect to the 4 1-4 teams left on our schedule this just seems like a better topic. So here we can discuss the remainder of the Smoky Bear season in 1 location.

 

Let me start by saying if the Bears lose 1 of the next 4 they should not make the playoffs. Jeff County would seem to be the most likely upset as they always give the Bears trouble. Seymour would be next since they are a true rivalry game but its at SC and it should not be close. Finally and up next will be on the road at Cherrokee and Cocke County if the Bears play anything near what they are capable of these teams are just over matched.

 

On to South Doyle. The Bears may have a slightly tougher schedule overall but SD has 2 better games in the 2 weeks leading up to the game this probably favors SD. SD also has the best player on the field in Bruce and the best lineman. SD has to have the edge in coaching also with all the changes at SC so all of the sudden the Bears are the underdog in an IMAC game. 1st time in probably all 5 or 6 seasons of this league in its current configuration. This game sets up to be a classic if the Bears win they will have won the league title every year that it existed thats not a bad record even though it was a "cupcake league". All a team can do is beat the teams on their schedule.

 

The game will be at home and the Bears have 4 weeks to get better. Right now if I had to pick a score the Bears would be on the short end but with time on our side Ill leave my score prediction till the time comes. Hopefully both teams stay healthy and it turns out to be the classic it has the potential to be.

 

Till then I will be trolling. :popcorneater: 

 

GoBears!

Agreed. Bears better learn to cover the middle of the field or we'll have more losses before we play SD

 

 

If we were playing competent teams I would agree with you. However we are not. Outside of SD the rest are just plain bad and should pose no real threat. If we lose to any of them then the Lingenfelter/co-rookie coordinators experiment can officially be deemed a failure.

Jeff county always plays us close. I'm nervous about that game. Still don't know about Seymour's coach. If he's as good as advertised he will exploit our weaknesses. I'm sure their players will be fired up to play us. If Seymour keeps it close at the half we'll be in real trouble. Looks like cherokee and Newport should b easy wins tho. Some of the mistakes and play calling I've seen makes me wonder if it will be a success. I'm sure a new head coach and new coordinators need time to find their groove

    • 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.
