How many fans can fit in Beene Stadium. I've seen some massive crowds there as a player and fan but this one could knock it out.

Im not sure about banking on whitwell to have a big crowd.  Their stands looked only half full in their game against tc.  It is a shame for their kids.  I think sp wins by at least a couple scores because their offense isnt good enough i dont think.  If they can weather the early storm though, they might have a chance.  I heard some whitwell boys talking today and they seemed confident as they should be.

You still camping out or coming down?

Whitwell has a good team. They should be confident, but this particular Pirate team does play very well together. They aren't the most athletic SP team we've seen, but they seem to work well as a cohesive unit.

They may not be the most athletic but they CERTAINLY are not lacking in that department.

We will find out a lot about both teams in just a couple of days. I keep wondering how good Trousdale was. I’ve heard some people say this is an average year for them about like the warriors. Then I see where Seven said “I’ve tried to tell y’all for a while that we aren’t that good. Better than average talent, with no leaders or heart.” Did anybody watch the game with them and Whitwell?

I never thought I'd see the day that SP and WHS are both undefeated and ranked at the top of 1a.  I know alot of SP folk are on here crowing but we're not the one's playing the game and our young men had better come out and not take WHS for just another win. I remember back in my day when TN played Rutger's and a player that had no respect for them as well as most of the TN team asked what is a Rutger and they and all of us TN fan's found out right quick after we lost to them and so I'm compairing this with the SP team now. I just believe this SP team though is very focused with some great leader's, and I don't look for the foolish TN mistake to happen to this Pirate team but always remember you have to bring your A game every Friday night.

    • 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.
