Donuts? We going to be eating all right. But it won't be donuts..We fixin' to figure out how to cook up a tornado and serve in the concession stand. And wash it down with oh so sweet and salty Alcoa tears. Dunlap has left the scene and I'm fresh out of tears. So hydrate up fellars we are a thirsty group. 

& you'll be dehydrated when we leave!!!

Here we go..Man up about what? I'm not going to come over and bow down to you. What are you the King of Alcoa? Get out of here. Don't know you now. Don't want to know you on Friday. Don't know what kind of weird customs y'all going on but I'm not down with it. Talk like y'all are some kind of mafia and we need to come over and kiss the ring or something lol. Crazy stuff. Are you serious right now? Guarantee I won't be hating after the game. One of 2 things are going to happen..We are going to win and going to start a new post about beating Stratford your welcome to join with your sour grapes if you would like. Or we lose and we say good game and move on to basketball. We always got a team to root for around here. Two time defending state champs in Bball for the girls and I would imagine the boys are going to be contenders for the foreseeable future. I'm not to emotionally invested in football.  This is just fun for me. Now a couple of you on the other hand. I'm pretty sure this could quite possibly be the most important thing in your life. 

Girls Basketball. hahaha

Y’all might have caught a break. We probably won’t have our football players who play basketball back by then. :lol:

Doubt it. I checked their schedule looks like they will be free to play after Friday. Heard they are playing the often over looked and generally disrespected but still #1 contenders in 3a football the Mighty Upperman Bees. At least that's what the tennessean  says..

If I read the schedule correctly ,Alcoa plays at Upperman in Basketball at Baxter Dec. 14.

  Yes they do and should be an interesting game. Upperman has a pretty  good chance on a W that night. If this game was a few weeks later, I would like our chances. 

 Now the football game is a little different. This is one of our better teams top to bottom. If we are aggressive on offense and defense not sure anyone can beat us. Should be a good game for a half but don’t think the bees will have enough, in the end. I guess we find out Friday night.

Word is Coach Rankin got into it with a Catholic 8th grade coach this weekend at the Battle on Rocky Top youth football tournament. Anyone know anything about this? What's Rankin so worried about with a 8th grade coach? He'll keep padding his stats in 3A and go down as one of the greats. Even though he refuses to play anyone outside of Maryville. Which he is forced to play.

Would you elaborate on “he is forced to play” I can’t wait to hear your answer...

    • 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.
