Maryville lost in 2012 because they could not stop Whitehaven running back. No body could. Whitehaven was the better team that night.

Understand your general theory here.  A ballgame is more than just one play ... and there are other opportunities throughout the course of the game to determine who wins and who loses.  And yes, that rb for Whitehaven was really, really good.  But there are occasions where you can point to one specific mistake by officials that directly determines the outcome of a game.  In the case of Maryville vs Whitehaven I believe one could say this.  The referees were caught off guard by the play Maryville executed perfectly and they threw a flag that should not have been thrown.  Had they not ... Maryville would have won the game.  I would contend this was the case this past weekend in the Ohio State vs Michigan game.  After watching the replay over and over, it appeared as if the ref's made a  mistake on the spotting of the ball on OSU's 4th down play in ot.  IF the ref's get this right, Michigan wins the game.  Yes, Michigan had other opportunities to win the game, but you can't completely ignore the fact that "one mistake by an official (s)" is capable of changing the final outcome of a game.  And by the way, don't throw all the Maryville fans to the wolves for my post ... I'm a William Blount fan. :)

Gov, I understand what you are saying and agree. Teams cant let it get to a point where the officials have a chance to decide it. Michigan had 3 series in the second had where they went three and out and only gained 5 yards when they had the lead. If they take care of business; it never gets to OT; and I don't like OSU. Maryville had a great team that year. If Maryville could have stopped Dodson from scoring one less time; they would have won. I am a Mt Juliet fan and we lost at Whitehaven by 6 in the semis that year.

 

My hat is off to GQ and his staff and team for the job they do every year. A great program. I would be willing to bet they will be back playing Oakland next year for the right to play for the championship.

I think Jack Quarles could call the plays against Billy B and we'd do just fine.

 

That was funny. Even funnier is what Big John told my nephew when my nephew coached at William Blount in 2003 and 04. My nephew was telling us that William Blount will shock the world. Big John told my nephew this. " All of Maryville's football players could die in a bus crash" "Quarles could take 11 out of the student body and kick William Blounts a$$"

    • 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.
