Memphis Central will try and play spoiler in Round 2 against unbeaten Germantown. The . Red Devils were in a similar spot last season when they were defeated by White Station, a team they defeated with ease in the regular season. The Red Devils won 28-7 in the regular season vs. Central, their lowest output of the year. They will be on full alert and I expect their best effort in this one. Central has a strong defense, but its lack of a throwing game has hurt them in their losses, even though they have a LSU commit at WR. I'm going with a 35-14 victory for the Red Devils in this one.

I'm thinking this over/undr of 49 is pretty good for this game.

Not sure about the score in this one.  If Germantown doesn't come out focused, the game can get interesting. 

Arlington came out last week and had more focus and intensity than Germantown which resulted in a 

14-14 tie at the half. They did go on to put up 37 points in the 2nd half but Central isn't Arlington. 

No they aren't. Arlington has a passing offense. Their defense leaves something to be desired though. Central, on the other hand, has a D-1 WR who can go up and get it, if his QB can get it in his vicinity. However, that Central D is pretty stout. If Central's QB could hit a simple hitch route ... man. 

You think this could be a trap game for G-town? Get caught looking ahead to the Whitehaven/Houston winner?

No way it is a trap game.You have last year's second round upset to White Station to point to, plus the Germantown head coach has a lot of respect for Major Wright and Central's talent level. You can never be overconfident when you play at this level. Not saying they can't be upset at this stage, but it won't be because they are overlooking anyone. As a side note, I hate the way the 6A does its playoffs where you have to get by a real good team TWICE to get out of the city.

I think the team remembers that fast exit last year as well. I don't think they will overlook Central either. 

Well ... there are only 9 6A teams on this side of the state. You have to go all the way to the Nashville area to find another 6A school. The 6A teams in the Memphis/Shelby County area will probably have to beat a good team twise to make it to the semi-finals. In a lot of instances, they will have to beat two good teams ... twice. It is what it is. Better have your tumbs available.

      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.
