Livingston gets thumped by Pickett Co . Upperman big favorite in district . Nobody else on their level . Great chance to go to the state .

Is this based on the thumping/trip to the woodshed that Pickett put on LA? Pickett handled JC pretty well that beat UHS also. Baylor beat UHS then turned around & lost to LA. I agree the bees are favored but to say no one else is on the same level is ridiculous. PC would also thump Upperman. I will say if this LA team has pride in tradition like teams from LA'S past, they will bounce back after an embarrassing beating on their own home crt. My bet is they do!

I've seen both teams play this season and Livingston is a good team, but Upperman is a very good team. Upperman can go to state. Livingston can put together a good run in the region. Upperman has the perimeter shooting much like Livingston, but Levy puts them on that next level. She's a natural playmaker and when she isn't having a good night, she still draws enough attention from the defense to free up her teammates.

I'm not a fan of either team, I'm saying what I saw.

No she's not. It's not even close at this point and if you watched the game without blinders on then there is no way you could make this statement. She couldn't guard Flynn she struggled all night long against Jackson County. Flynn has won a state championship as a point guard on one of the best programs in the state. This young lady from Upperman has talent and her upside might be more only time will tell but she is not better than Flynn. Only a parent or relative would make a statement like this after watching the game between these two players. You can type in anything you want, Flynn proved it on the floor when it counted. End of discussion. As for the game itself how can you say it was an upset? Jim Brown has owned Upperman his entire career and laid out the blueprint on how to beat them this year. You think it will be any different when Upperman travels to Gainesboro?

Uh...evidently yes...lol

    • 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.
