West vs. Alcoa


Recommended Posts

I think mo west is for real this year. Knox west lost all their stars & coach, mo west returns basically the whole team. The Smoky Bears are 2-9 all time vs knox west but the timing could not be more perfect to pick up a win for the Bears.

Mo west is really good. They'll be tough this year and next year. I do think the somky bears beat know west this year, but this was just a spring scrimmage, that doesn't mean anything when we play the game

I agree West played a lot better this year than last year in terms of scrimmages. I thought West moved the ball pretty well on them and other than some tackling issues played them even. West even had a pick 6 on them.

 

Let's be honest we lost some major guys but they have some young rising sophs and juniors that are ready to make a name for them.

 

I predict a 7-3 record...Go Rebels!

Not a bad scrimmage for a Knox West team losing all the players they lost and with all that MoWest has returning! The 1s vs. 1s was even I thought. MoWest scored 1 time and then West had a pick 6 and also scored with #5 at RB on 4 run plays for the drive. MoWest scored 2 times the entire scrimmage. Overall a good scrimmage and both teams need some work and the depth at Knox West was impressive with the young guys.

I agree! 7 and 3 is pretty realistic.  I think those first 2 games, both on TV, will set the tone for the whole season.  Both Hardin Valley and Sevier County will be big tests.  If they can pull out wins against those 2 schools, I think they will have a great season.  Lots of time between now and then to work out the bugs.  Time will tell.  Also if Isaiah recovers fully from injury, that will help on the OL.  I think he can participate in July.

    • Deja vu all over again, 7 yrs apart. SMDH Does anybody talk to each other?
    • 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.
