I don't know about that. I don't know about any scheduling issues. Southaven refused to play G-town, but yet, Houston and Whithaven are on this year's schedule. I can't speak on the other schools, but it seems like, to me anyway, that scheduling is just a major chore. I know some programs won't play others, but it's been my experience that it usually isn't for reasons that folk think. Sometimes, things just don't work out.

That being stated, this game is gigantic for Germantown They can I'll afford to HOST Oakland and get their doors blown off. The new HC and the staff will suffer if that happens. They can't afford to be disgraced at home in front of the world. That program will implode if that happens. 

My opinion.

FWIW, unapproved website has this game projected as 56-13 in Oakland favor. Sonny Moore power ratings projects about the same. Not sure losing 1 game, by whatever margin, is going to destroy a program, maybe for a season. If Oakland was some run of the mill team I might agree but this an Oakland team that still is pretty decent on defense with an offense that might be the best they've ever had

Not sure it’s a disaster situation if that happens....  Just probably means they were a one hit wonder coming from last season. Maybe getting back to the Germantown of old.

Not sure they can be called a one hit wonder. Last year was a good year. But they were 11-1 two years ago.

They'd be 3-0 right now if the old coaching staff was still there. No way with the talent left they lose those games. As far as the schedule, no one else would play them - i.e. Houston, Southhaven and Collierville ended the series after last year, Arlington and Bartlett all refused to play over last two years.  Had to schedule whoever would play them - kind of same boat Whitehaven stays in. But it did kind of work out that the schedule is pretty rough. Ironically, they could catch Houston in the first round of the playoffs.

I dont necessarily disagree with you on that. Cordova did everything they could to give that game away. Desoto Central has never really just wow'd me. As far as scheduling goes I know that its tough. Just seeing if that narrative was out there anywhere.(Smith loading the schedule up knowing he was leaving)

Not sure about Gtown.  They have had some good years here and there.  And at least one gold ball.    They seem a little down right now with the coaching change.   Oakland continues to improve and make plays.    This one could turn into a track meet.  Go Patriots 

I went back to look at the records on TSSAA yesterday and G-Town is actually one of our area's most successful programs in the modern era (80s to the present) HOWEVER they ended my senior season thus I LOVE to see them LOSE, just being 100 lol. In all seriousness I hope they they can lose a competitive game to Oakland for no other reason than to provide Whitehaven with some good film should Da Haven have to face Oakland down the road.

Bold , underlined

That's ALL I am saying is if G-Town gets killed the Seniors and the team in general may just pack it up this season.

    • 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.
