Clinton @ Anderson County

Who cares? I mean seriously.... Coach Keith certainly doesn’t. He doesn’t need it for playoffs, and it doesn’t hurt his wallet. I really like him, it’s not the most important game in the world to him, it’s just game 1, whatever the score ends up, he’ll prep his men for the next week. He’s not from here, so this game means nothing. He loves what they do at AC, thinks a lot of how the kids and parents follow the program. He’s doing his best to restablish that feel at CHS. But come on, let’s be real, it’s not AC’s biggest game and it’s not Clinton’s.

Let's get ready to Rumble for That magnificent Bridge! Both Teams want it but only one Great team will be able to walk away with it. The question is who wants it the Most! :hungry:

I don't think they are playing for the bridge anymore. It was not at last year's game.

Clinton will lose. However, Keith will make a difference for the Dragons in the long haul. The truth is, AC is the better program and the school system’s favorite. CHS is the red headed step child. All the money is on the North end of the county. #GoDragons

I will agree honestly. But Clinton has always had natural talent. Programs are not built overnight. The new coach sounds like he will mix it up and that's what they need. I think he will in the future make the Mavs earn it. You can not expect him to win the first game but he sounds like he is in it for the long run. I may be wrong but I think he is best bet yet for Clinton.

I wouldn't be surprised to see this one closer than people think.  I don't really have a score prediction at the moment because I haven't seen either team on the practice field this year. 

Clinton may have a small advantage coming in with a new offense that no one has seen on film just yet. It may take AC's defense by surprise not really knowing what is coming at you at first. 

We will see. Should be interesting.

Yeah this could get interesting. The unknown could give the Mavs a handful. No one counting on a win for Clinton so they have nothing to lose. I am really worried that this new coach can present problems for the Mavs if not now maybe later. I am counting on an established program at AC to pull it off but I have seen this before where the unknown and the new pulls the upset. I am hoping for Clinton to show some promise and grow each game. It's always good to have a neighborhood rivalry especially since we no longer play Oak Ridge or CC.

    • 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.
