Wait a minute!!! Didn't Kirby just play Southwind at Kirby on that "turf" and BARELY beat a 7-5 team. It took a SAFETY!?!?!?!?! A safety?????? A SAFETY??? WHAAAAATTTTTTT!?!?!?!?!?!?

Yep. A safety. A 7-5 team. It's playoff football. Win by any means necessary. I think HC wins. I do think the venue helps Kirby though.

One thing that I will say, which has been said many MANY times before - Defense wins championships! Personally, I am a bit worried about #15 on special teams. I think our Defense is good enough to hold them in check. They will score, but not all the time. But on special teams, we have to be on point! HAVE to!!!

 

Go Big RED!!!

Well I know one TD that Germantown got was from a super short field after an INT. Don't let the score from the G-Town game fool you. It was tied 14-14 at halftime. G-Town scored 10 in the 3rd and it was tied 7-7 in the 4th. We played them close 3 out of 4 quarters. 

 

Yeah, and the last TD scored by HC was due to a short field.  Germantown muffed a punt.....

Turf? That's the difference in the ball game? Dont make me laugh bro! Its a little different but it in no way will be deciding any ball game Friday night in Memphis. And honestly Kirby will face the toughest defense they have played all year hands down!! Thats the facts! I don't see Kirby scoring over 21. Thats only because its in Memphis. If it was in Paris Kirby only scores 14. What's y'alls answer if that RB of y'alls gets shut down?? Our pass coverage is on point right now. 

#15 won't get shut down. He's crazy fast

I was shocked that it was that close. Hopefully the boys look at that as a real deal wake up call

Good morning Senator. You didn't respond to my earlier request so I assumed you missed it. What can you tell me about the Kirby area? Parking? Tailgate areas? Eating recs?Safety?Look us up pregame- would love to visit with you again.

    GO BIG RED

Kinda true we had to go around 40 yards. G-Town only had like 15 yards to go 

My point was that the score was kinda deceiving.  H C didn't move the ball at all the second half. 

The 7 points came off a turnover (muffed punt, which means that was another stop) in their own territory a few plays later, well in the 4th qtr.

They didn't cross the 50 for the most part in the second half.  

The first half was back and forth.  The second half pretty much all Gtown.

Gtown Scrimmaged Olive Branch at Olive Branch in the Spring which resulted in a tie game 21-21.

Kirby lost to Olive Branch by 21.... H C lost to Gtown by 10

However, coach Flowers has been to this level of the playoffs. In fact, he's coached in a championship game when he was the HC at Melrose when they lost to Maryville. He isn't as new to this as it would appear. I had forgotten about that.

I think that's the year Melrose had that incredible O Line and they gave it to Graig Cooper (the best running back in the state that year) like 4 or 5 times the whole 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.
