Macon County will be looking for revenge in this game after "Rain-gate" from last year where they felt that TC got lucky that it rained or else the game would have been much different than 28-0.

Also Macon County fans are thinking that they have the ship back on course after winning big the last 3 weeks after starting 0-2 against Smith County and Westmoreland.

They beat Mt. Juliet Christian 55-7. Mt. Juliet Christian is likely gonna finish 2-8 on the year. I also heard that MJC had a bunch of injuries going into that game.

They beat Glencliff 70-8. Its Glencliff I'm not even gonna.... yeah I will Glencliff has been outscored 322-28 in the first 5 games. So do the math there and that score is pretty much par for the year for Glencliff who most likely will finish 0-10.

They beat Cumberland County 48-12. Cumberland County is 0-5 and looking possibly to finish 0-10 as well. Cumberland County lost to Clay County 29-0 and also lost to White County.

Macon County may be better than the start of the season but I don't think they are too much better (if at all) than Westmoreland. And we seen how that went down on Friday night.

Trousdale County has won 13 of the last 16 meetings between these teams and 11 of those wins have been by +21 points.

Trousdale County 35

Macon County 7

Since the game is at Macon and they have always been a thorn in TC side for the last few years. They always come out with a good game plan they have very good coaching staff they will try to play keep-away with the ball and have long drives to shorten the game. But TC defense is starting to click on the secondary Macon will have a hard time getting the first downs they need to sustain the long drives. I say TC 28-0 bec of Macon shorting the game and limiting TC offensive possessions.

By The Numbers: Week 6 Trousdale Co. travels to Macon Co. for a Border Battle

Match-Up History:   Looking through the years at schedules of past, you won’t find too many out there where these 2 schools haven't played. The 2 communities share a lot of similarities in that the main industry for which they were both established was Tobacco and farming in general, and their love for Football! I honestly think you would find it very hard to find more than 10 people within Macon Co. who doesn't bleed Orange and White on Saturday's. But anyways back to this games history. Macon County based on my records is Trousdale County's most familiar foe. I do expect that the real number is much higher but I show the 2 squads having squared off at least 47 times on the gridiron. In those contest, the Yellow Jackets holds a slight advantage with a 38-9 record. Since 2001 the 2 have seen each other 16 times. Trousdale Co. bested Macon Co. in 12 of those games. Macon Co. won games in 2003, 2006, 2014, & 2017. Games were not scheduled in 2015 & 2016 but the Tigers would have had a good chance of having a 4 game streak if they had been played.  Last year on the Creekbank, if I’m not mistaken in a downpour, the Jackets got back to their winning ways in the series and tossed a 28-0 shutout.

    • 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.
