So your not at least a little impressed with my CYCLONES. Heck we almost beat you guys. Everyone was sayin you all might hang 70 pts on us. Well I'm very impresssed with our CYCLONES. vERY PROUD OF THEM BOYS TONIGHT!!!! GO CYCLONES

I was impressed with the way the Cyclones didn't fold when they got down 14-0. They never gave up and fought hard all night. I was certainly impressed with that "never say die" attitude. However, as I stated earlier, the overall play of both teams really didn't impress me. I don't know if it was first game jitters or what but both teams simply didn't look all that good. The passing game for both teams needs a lot of work. SH looked a little better passing the ball but not by much. I thought Elizabethton looked pretty much on par with the Toppers as far as the run game goes. Neither QB looked sharp. Bedard had 3-4 big plays in the air but he also had a ton of incompletions and what, 2-3 interceptions? Both teams need to improve in the red zone. SH had numerous opportunities (4 or 5) in the red zone and shot themselves in the foot with either a dumb penalty or a turnover. Elizabethton had either one or two missed opportunities in the red zone as well.

 

The way I saw it both the Toppers and Cyclones have a whole lot they need to improve on.

For BETSEY to play y'all to a 28-21 score it would seem they have a little less to work on than SH!!

Were you there? A LOT of improvement is needed for BOTH teams. Not one more than the other.

 

As far as the game goes, I give the edge to:

 

QB-SH

Passing game-SH

Run game-Tie

OL-Tie

DL-SH

Secondary-Elizabethton

Special Teams-Elizabethton

Overall I give SH a C- and the Cyclones a B+. 5 trips to the red zone and 0 points. Three missed FGs that would have picked up the red zone mistakes would have helped. We really missed Mr. automatic as our kicker (Alex).

 

The three picks were tough with two coming in red zone. One hits the receiver in the chest and bounces straight up and the other was under thrown but he should of just tucked it and ran and kept the clock moving. Those are things that will come with time under center. Still the QB had 98 yards rushing and threw for 248 yards and two TDs with a third called back by penalty.

 

Defense played well. Elizabethton basically didn't throw a pass in the 2nd or 3rd Qtr. One TD was caused by a bad snap and gave them ball first and goal on the three and one was a pick 6 on a LB tip when the receiver ran the wrong route. Otherwise the defense only gave up one long sustained drive. I think they played well.

 

SH special teams need to be better and the offense needs to keep doing what gets them to the red zone in the red zone. We only punted once all night and that was the snap issue. We moved the ball at will between the 20s just need to shore things up.

 

No one more disappointed than the kids at SH but there is much to like especially if they can get a couple things fixed.

 

Go Toppers!!

      Who vandalized Maryville's Football Field?

      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.
