Fulton @ Powell

Powell hasn't seen the speed in their first two opponents that they will see Friday night. Fulton and Central's defenses played lights out for 3 quarters and just ran out of gas. Fulton radio after the game had Fulton w/ 215 yds. of offense, Central w/ 204. Matt has Powell moving back up, but they will be hard pressed to match a Fulton team with 24 seniors.

Fulton should win this one, but it will be closer than some think. Powell hasn't given up a point yet, although it helps that they played Halls and Cumberland County to kick the season off. This Fulton team has a ton of overall speed, but it doesn't look like they are built to dominate up front. In the end, these Panthers just aren't deep enough, or disciplined enough, to win this one.

I heard Powell best DT got kicked out of game for a personal foul ... you have to sit out 1 game right?? On ejections ???

Powell had a kid on offense get ejected on Friday, but it was late in the game when all of the starters were pulled. Never heard officially who it was, but he won't be playing this week.

Matches is back with a prediction. I think Rob Black is going to make Matt Lowe eat some of that humble pie this week. I like Fulton in this battle. Powell hasn't seen the speed of Fulton and the last two teams they have played (Halls/Cumberland) didn't even bring a defense to the game and Knox County football is all about that D-FENCE. Fulton has some underrated downhill thumpers. That's all I have on this one. I'll hang up and listen.

IF Powell can get to the QB and hit him it will be a tight game.

    • 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.
