In general, Covington is known for having a good grass field. However, 3 consecutive home playoff games during the monsoon season have taken a toll. Stratford won't need to worry about field conditions, though. They will be better served to study film on our offense.

Thanks. I don't think Stratford's worried about the field. If I was to bet I'd say they want it as sloppy and slippery as possible. I was just satisfying my own curiosity more than anything.

Best of luck to both teams. :thumb:

This Stratford offense reminds of the one Maplewood had when they play Covington in the semi-finals back in 2011: One running back big and fast, another running back not as big but faster.

#2 is a beast. The other, #7 I believe, is slippery and will burn you around the edge when you load up to stop #2. Its a great tandem they got going.

Sounds like a good rushing attack. For those without a program, the guys to watch for Covington on offense are:

 #1 QB - Senior - Brock Lomax

# 3 RB - Senior - Ke'shun Gant

#7 RB -  Sophomore - Marcus Hayes (Mr. Football semi-finalist)

#25 RB- senior - Cordarries Page

These are the folks who make our offense go.

Ur correct in a way but our line has to block we’ll along with the backs who don’t have the ball . If they do their job we’re tough to slow down.

Couple questions. 

How big are Covington's linebackers? Is their field grass or turf? If grass, is it in good shape? 

If it's a hog pen like Fairviews field I'd do like CPA and hire helicopters to hover over it to dry it out. Lol. Weathers looking dry for the next week though. 

Covington LBs are not huge but I think they are big enough.  They will come up and stick you. Looking for some big hits and bruising runs come Friday night. The key for the Charger D for the big back will be to stop him before he get his momentum going.

Will Stratford's crowd travel well to Covington Friday night?

On the radio they said Covington will make the trip to Stratford 

The radio was wrong. Covington went to PC last year. This year it flips and the Middle TN school has to come to us. See the bracket on the TSSAA website to confirm Covington as the home team.

I knew it came to this side. I was just saying that when I heard it on the milan station that they were wrong.

    • 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. 
    • No my fight, but ... if they were already college-caliber prior to transferring to BHS, and they already had FBS interest, and they end up at an FBS school, how did Bearden do anything for them?
