I am going with Meigs 24-21. I agree with you WarChant. Those Meigs boys want it bad after what happened last year. No one has been able to shut down Swafford and Smith in two years when healthy. Thats the big question. Is Smith fully ready to go. He has been out a while. I think it will be difficult to stop Swafford, Smith and the platoon of receivers Meigs has available. Its not just one wideout you got to stop. Swafford has thrown touchdowns to at least seven players I can recall. I seen some posts also talking about speed and fastest player on the field being the QB from TC. Watch out for number 33 from Meigs. If he gets loose on a kickoff, punt return, or catching the ball I don't believe anyone can keep up with or chase him down.

Brother I don’t doubt Meigs has some fast kids, but Baines(#8, TC QB) held tyners track star WR(Mr. Football finalist) to 2 catches for 15 yards, he can flat out fly.

It should be fun to watch then. I was able to watch a couple TC games and I feel that Meigs has too many options though and want it more.

It could come down to turnovers and ball control. I don't see TC consistently stopping Meigs offense. Rockwood came out with a good game plan the second time around. They had one drive of just three and four yard runs with a couple of 4th down conversions that lasted nearly ten minutes in the second quarter.

The problem was they left Meigs around 50 seconds on the clock before halftime and of course Meigs went on one of its famous long three play 50 plus yard drives for a score to end the half.

Meigs has pretty much scored at will against everyone they have played the last couple of years. We will just have to wait and see if the mighty TC can do something no one else has been able to do.

They didn’t score at will against Polk. That tells me enough.

    • 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.
