The predicted teams are here. It's what UC especially wanted. Been two of the best teams in the state all year this season, even tops for years past too, especially Union City. Dresden took advantage of lotsa Tornado mishaps in regular season, and everyone knows, including Dresden that this game won't look anything like first one. UC is back in storm mode, that attitude & playing that's won them lotsa Gold, plus they'll have a huge revenge factor after the embarassing loss Dresden gave them (very unlike UC). And Lions are in beast mode like hardly has ever been seen before, all our many weapons are firing wide open and shooting true. We have best defense in state, and probably best offense too. Will be a clash of two champion-hearted teams this upcoming cold, wintery Friday the 18th at Rotary Field in Dresden. Gates open around 5:45, kickoff at 7pm. Talk about a packed stadium! Gonna be epic! Don't think it'll be a blowout, and UC may have an emotional edge because of revenge factor, and they been here before more than Lions and know how to win, so they'll be the more veteran team in playoff situations. Even so, methinks in spite of this, what's happening with Dresden is special and they'll not be beat. Not by UC this week. Lions have unfinished business this year, and they are not yet done. Still hungry. Still playing with a chip on shoulder & purpose in heart. Got a gut ache that can't be settled unless they win it all. This one should be a game for the ages, with Lions winning imo. Others say what?

Winn had 350+ yards this game. Running. Passing. Scrambling. Honestly he is in best form of season. A running clock against a good Golden Tide team should tell you something. Not many defensive scores tonight either, so it was almost all offensive scoring. Winn was a great field general with many, many weapons at his disposal. Used lots of them tonight, and spread around the love. Did great at punting too. Yep, injury was a non-event as it were. Tonight was his birthday too, so what a great present, eh?

Reading the small print in playoff rules, at this stage of playoffs, in even numbered years the team on bottom of bracket hosts, odd years its top of bracket. (I think I got that right). I glad we host so we don't run risk of our guys suffering motion sickness or "bus lag". Haha

    • 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.
