Sir you are usually on point!I have picked MC every round and folks act like I am crazy,those boys live for the playoffs!Just like in the lil ole West my TIDE is always counted out!!I say we do the whole 2014 thing again and play for a Gold Ball Marion!Sound good!?

Hahaha....  sounds good to me. I remember a couple weeks ago people talking about Peabody may not even make the playoffs. When it's do or die that's when heart shows. Most teams over on this side scoreboard watch hoping they see us go down. You never know how dangerous we could be. These kids have played a tough schedule and been in some dogfights. Something clicked about a month ago and these boys look focused now. We will see how it plays out and hopefully advance to play another week. Best of luck to the Tide!

Marion broke open a tight game with tyner and led by 2 tds with about 7 minutes to go but tyner hit some big plays and we were caught trying to kill the clock.  Mc has also made some adjustments since then and i am sure tyner has as well.  Athlete wise, tyner is superior and mc will have to find a way to block big number 76 i think.  He was in the backfield before we could hand it off last time.  If Tyner plays a clean ballgame with few penalizes and no turnovers, they will win.  Luckily they dont normally do that. 

Good post I agree, Tyner has wasted more talent over the years than anybody in Tennessee.

This not the same team Tyner played earlier in the year. Kids have been moved around, kids playing with more confidence and the biggest difference is experience. These young men have been battle tested. 

Win, lose or draw not a lot of people thought MC would be where they are right now.

As a fan and a parent I can't say enough about the job the coaching staff has done, these kids could have folded when they were 3-5,but the coaches would not let that happen. 

Just like last week we will show up and see what happens. #WINTHEDAY #WFL

It's obvious to me what happened to Marion County. The confidence got shaken with the Sequatchie and SP losses. Then they give a game away vs Tyner. Confidence and momentum always play a big part. The Marion offense has always been very good. I'm still not sold on the defense against solid teams though. However, as we both found out last week. Getting 6 turnovers usually means you're going to win. LMBO. Back in the summer I said they whoever won the Trousdale and Marion game would probably go to Cookeville. Now granted I thought they would play in the quarterfinals, but I still believe that MC now has the inside track to get there.

Marion County will beat Tyner soundly this week. It will be 14 points or more. They are coached better and have regained their confidence. I remember when I was still ranking them in my top 10 poll every week when they had a losing record and I was basically crucified  LMBO

I also remember last week when you said TC would beat them by 2 scores!!!

    • 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.
