That Shadowens man (William Blount) vs. That Floyd man (Bradley Central)

Even if WB wins tonight, it will be an uphill battle to make the playoffs.

IF WB beats Bradley, it is likely that there will be a three way tie for third place in the region (assuming that Cleveland beats MC and loses to Ooltewah, and Maryville beats BC). 

Bradley will win that three way tie by virtue of having more overall wins than Cleveland or WB, making the Bears the #3 seed. The tiebreaker will then reset, and Cleveland will get the #4 seed by virtue of their head-to-head victory over WB.

The only chance for the Govs to make the playoffs is for Cleveland to either win out or lose out, avoiding the three way tie. However, it looks very likely that Cleveland will split, leaving WB out in the cold.

C'mon man,

Don't rain on our parade. A .500 record would be huuuuge for this football program. Besides... I'd say that McMinn could definitely knock off Cleveland. The most unlikely thing is us beating Bradley tonight. But hey, it is senior night and the Govs offense is looking good right now. Anything is possible. Go Govs!

Final: 38-7

The Govs' defense had a pretty good game, but the scoreboard doesn't really show it. They only gave up 4 touchdowns even though Bradley Central lived on WB's side of the field all night. The Govs have got to get better on the o-line. Clemmer was running for his life the whole game. There are some big boys who are freshmen and sophomores. It will be interesting to see if they can finally compete with the Bradleys and Ooltewahs of the world in the coming years.

Raining on a parade is the last thing I ever want to do...tough one tonight but we can finish strong with a win next week, which I expect. Go Govs

Not surprised with the outcome last night. I went to see Bradley and Alcoa scrimmage and I remember leaving wondering is Alcoa that good or Bradley that bad. I don't have to tell you anymore to that story but Bradley has done a good job of reloading considering all the seniors on last years team. WB can still have a good season compared to the past this week if they can hang tough on the road at Stone Mountain. When you play on the road a 100 miles away and hoping for a good fair game is like trusting a fart after you have eaten at the Taco Bell and hour earlier.

    • So much talk about an investigation about student record manipulation and then everything has went silent. Has anyone heard how the investigation is going?
    • Basically what you're saying is schools can basically bully students around and get away with it because they are protected. I agree to a certain extent but when schools decisions to keep knuckleheads on staff starts costing kids careers and a college education there is a problem. Our school system last week had a teacher supposedly push a kid and the parents went to the law and the teacher is suspended. So I wouldn't say that they can just do what they want without liability. This case don't pass the smell test because the coach had already been fired before and she got fired after a year on the job. Sounds like the student was right in this case on the outside looking in because the coach gets fired after one year. How many coaches get fired after one year?? Not many. 
    • Problem with DB football goes beyond coaching. Like Waco said. Thr band is the main focus of their community and school. They have the resources to be a championship level team. Guarantee Ballard or Witten could have them nationally relevant at some point but everyone down to peewee would have to buy in and at DB we all know that would never happen. 
    • I know the RB from OR he’s fast and has good hands. Is good on special teams also. Didn’t want to play defense over to the Ridge.
    • Lieutenant Flip flops is on a roll. #1 recruiter in Anderson Co, fo-sho.
