Who ya got? I know cookeville lost a lot from last year but there defense looks to be excellent. Giving up only 75 yards total in 2 games. Offensively they are scoring in bunches. Looks like a lot of stupid penalties have really hurt them and kept them from looking more dominant. Is it a product of who they have played or, does the Stache have a better club than initially though?

 

On the flip. WC looked like a different club against the blue devils than against the Tigers. Was that a result of a really bad Lebanon squad or a WC bunch who is beginning to find themselves? They can run the ball well and their offensive line is massive and very athletic. The big back they have is a punisher that runs hard and is hard to tackle. There wideouts look very fast and athletic and the Qb is a clone of Joshua Dobbs at Tennessee. Not a great thrower of the ball but makes things happen with his feet.

 

Defensively they look much improved up front their linebackers are really good and number 35 is a hit machine. Slower than most teams there but maybe smarter. Their secondary looks the most improved to me.

 

This should be a good game and as bad as I want to predict a WC win I just don't think they are experienced enough to know how to win this type of game.

 

I have this one at 40-35 cookeville.

 

What about you?

Warren looked decent against a bad Lebanon team. A win is a win though. Pioneers first win against 6A competition in few years I believe. This week however, it's back to reality. Cookeville 45 Warren 14. Pioneers next realistic shot at s victory is senior night against Coffee County

Yea, I suppose you could be right. I do choose to believe you and others don't give that large offensive line and that huge running back enough credit.

Warrens o line did do well against Lebanon, and the big back runs hard. If the Pioneers can run well and control the clock they have a shot at keeping it relatively close. If Moore starts going to the passing game though I believe it gets out of hand quick. The QB is not real accurate and does better with his legs. I wish them well, I just don't think they have enough speed and athleticism to compete against the rest of their schedule accept for Sequatchie and Coffee.

I think Cookeville wins.

 

Would say blow out but What worries me is the penalties! Last two games I would guess over 100yrds in penalties, this is what scares me. Cookeville looks to have a real good team they should handle WC, but if cookevilles keeps being their own worst enemy any thing could happen!

Cookevilles team shows flashes of greatness(region champs), but keeps putting out their own fire with yellow hankies. Let's hope jimmy gets it fixed and fast.

Yeah Cavs killing themselves with penalties thus far but hopefully we get that cleaned up. Defense does look great so far but offense still has work to do. Especially the passing game. That's understandable with a first time starter who hasn't played QB in a few years. He will get better. CAVS will have to continue to get better every week as we play a better team every week. We will see. Good win for the Pioneers last week over a 6A team. I don't care who the team is, if you beat a 6A team like you did last week it's a good sign.

      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.
