I knew we’d need to play near perfect and we didn’t our first two turnovers resulted in 14 for Alcoa and we couldn’t recover. Congrats to Alcoa your guys are super disciplined on defense and carry out their blocks on offense like no team we have played .

Alcoa has played some great teams the year and Covington is one of them at the top. Definitely the best 3A team Alcoa has played. Tell you son and his teammates the Alcoa community was very impressed with their performance  in the Championship game. One of better teams Alcoa has played in the championship game.

Congratulations Chargers!

Covington was the real deal! Great game! Yours should do well at the next level! :thumb:

Depth for Alcoa is gonna make it hard for any 3a team to ever beat them. We lost two senior defensive lineman in pre season that would have helped last night. We basically play about 24 kids not counting special teams. We have Qb and both running backs coming back but are losing 12 seniors that played almost every down since they were sophomores.

Congratulations to the Alcoa Tornadoes on their state-leading 16th State Championship.  There were times this year where people wondered could Alcoa win a state title.  Their Mr. Football Award Winner was dismissed from the team over the summer.  Another potential "playmaker" ended up playing in GA.  Many "experts" across the state felt that Pearl-Cohn was probably the best football team in 3A this year.  I even made the remark a few weeks ago that "if you're going to get Alcoa it had better be this year."  

 

Their coaches and fan base have to be extremely excited about the outlook of the 2018 team.  I was looking at their roster in the program yesterday.  They'll be the unanimous pick to win 3A next season.

The future is definitely bright. Most thought that because Alcoa was starting freshmen was a direct reflection of the loss of talent and depth on the team.However, those young men are just that good. I think it was evident yesterday. :thumb:

    • 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.
