Whitehaven at Houston - Round 2

Really surprised no one from Whitehaven has started this topic yet. I know both teams would really look forward to a rematch with Germantown in Round 3 if they make it. Houston has not lost since losing to the Red Devils in week 2 and Whitehaven's three losses have been to teams with a combined 32-0 mark in the regular season. I look for a high scoring game if both teams have their A running games on Friday. Does Whitehaven still have an intimidation factor on its side against Houston? My prediction is Whitehaven 41-34.

I've looked on the Germantown Municipal School District website, the Houston High School website, and I can't find any mention of who Houston High School is named for. When they handed the school over to GMSD from Shelby County, did anyone get the school history. Just wondering. A Google search has turned up nothing.

I think it’s named after the street that it intersects with; Houston Levee which is a main road that runs through the Germantown/Cordova area. Still no clue about the history of it tho.

We come out focused and minimize self inflicted wounds we should win convincingly. We play how we played two weeks ago and it’s gonna be a long disappointing night. Houston is one dimensional as far as I know and that will play into our favor. Our oline will have to play much better from here on out.

You are more than likely correct. 

We all know that many schools in Memphis City and Shelby County School were named after the streets they were on or the neighborhoods they were in.

I don't think Houston is one dimensional, but they do have a pretty dynamic RB. I think they have a QB and some WR that are prett good. This is going to be a good game.

This game is going to be pretty good. I picked Houston to win ONLY because I've seen the way Whitehaven can play when the calls aren't going their way.  This game is going to be at Houston where i'm sure they'll get the benefit of the doubt on some calls.  Whitehaven will self implode. 

MY prediction

In the playoffs you get out of area officials. Do you still think this will be a factor? I've noticed in the playoffs, on our end of the state, sometimes you get officials who aren't used to calling 6A schools in a big time environment. We've had crews, who you can tel,l aren't used to the speed of the 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.
