You've had Huntingdon ranked ahead of Cornersville all year.  That means you think Huntingdon will win this year.  

Huntingdon is the favorite this year in the West and has been all season. They are also the prohibitive favorite out of the West for next year and have been all season.

You're talking in circles again. :)

You have been reading what I’ve been saying about them all season. Yes, I think they are the favorite. Them and Cornersville winner decides Cookeville this season.

We're all playing for 2nd place behind Greenback

On paper, yes we all should be.  When you win a state title in a blowout and return almost your entire team you should repeat. Now they have added a Mr. Football caliber athlete to the mix. They should be a 3 TD favorite in the semifinals and finals. That doesn’t mean it happens, but they are a very old and talented team.

With the regular season ending & playoffs right around the corner I'd like to see what everyone grades their own respective teams:

Huntingdon Mustangs: (9-0)

Offense:  A+ total points scored 463 averaging 52 points per game. 

Defense: B- Given up 145 total points, opponents averaging 17 points per game. This can be little misleading with starters not playing. 

Special Teams: A- 46 yrd field goal (total points unknown). Team struggled on kickoff coverage   

Overall: A- Couple quality wins over some higher classification teams. Milan/Waverly/Camden

Or new player is a good football player but not a Mr football caliber player.he fills a large gap that we had at the running back spot No Doubt.He is still getting used to our system.

Not bad for a defense full of juniors with 2 seniors starting

If Huntingdon can beat Cornersville this season with a junior loaded team then I will go ahead and say it. They will represent the west the next two seasons. 

Well all I can say is what about last year with the junior loaded team from cornersville  just wondering same players a heck of alot bigger faster and stronger  we lost 2 people  but also have a junior class of 13 or more coming up that's played  as freshman  not the whole class but 3 to 4 of them have so I don't understand  your  Logic

Cornersville will take a step back in 2019. They have a shot this year, but I don’t see them being a top team to beat next season.

True  but should be competitive they have a big junior  class and alot of underclassmen that's played alot this year and a junior high  team that was undefeated all year  against all the fayetteville teams and a few more others cornersville will be around for  awhile  I just hope they keep it up In youth league  that we started with these seniors

    • 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.
