WB is coming off a really bad showing and an off week. If I had to guess, the Govs will be hungry to put Elizabethton behind them and bounce back with a good performance. I am expecting a competitive game and I will be very disappointed if the Govs don't compete well this week.

Any good at stopping the run? Have enough speed catch Burke? Will the defense wear down easy after seeing 3-4-5 RB? Secondary good? Fill us in.

It's hard to answer your questions because WB has always been a Jekyll and Hyde team. Have we been good at stopping the run? Not really, honestly. But we have played Maryville, McMinn, and Elizabethton so far.  And a big part of that is poor tackling. We have been in position to make plays, but we don't execute consistently.

The most consistent thing for us is our offense. We have a senior qb, good receivers and we can score some points. Another pattern this year is slow starts. We don't seem to show up in the first quarter much.

If we get off to a good start, don't turn the ball over, and tackle well we will have a chance. If we don't do those things it will be another blowout. It's that simple. The Govs should be motivated to play hard after that stinker at Elizabethton and the off week. I'm expecting a competitive ballgame. Go Govs!

I went to the Oliver Springs game (wore orange) and they ran at will. OS just ran out of gas. 

If teams keep running at will, they need to get Will out of there and put somebody else in.

Bradley is a very good team. Their defensive front is tough. The NG is fun to watch.

Oliver Springs also ran a gimmicky offense and we didn't get to prepare for it because that game was scheduled at the last minute in the middle of the week. But yes, our defense needs to play better than that this week.

Bradley actually has probably more weapons this year than in the past. Defense may even be better than any defense we have had in the past and we are young for the most part on defense. Think we have 2 or 3 freshman starting with 3 sophomores. I'm pretty sure. DL is definitely the biggest we have had in quite some time.

We are young too. We have a lot of sophomores and juniors starting.

    • Yea I agree I will say tho I was a big “ v “ fan if an  opening ever did happen I think it would’ve been good to see him have a shot coming from a power house like Oakland. I’m sure he’s learned a lot from Kevin.  I bet he would bring a really good offense scheme IMO But after all this I just dunno anymore.  Whatever happens with the rumors an such if it did come to and opening I think this messes it all up.  The board members dreams are slowly slipping away now. I haven’t lived there for awhile I just hear what I hear, but my question is would there be any good potential candidates?? That’s why I don’t understand why people want b s out so bad who else could do any better ?? IMO there’s nothing attractive about it? As I stated earlier I went to the last game last year and taking a leak in a porta Potty is pretty sad and still nothing being done they say .. 
    • I have a sophomore that can do 177 (preferred) or 192. Sent you an email.
    • speaking of board members how can a man get arrested 12 days ago and still be head coaching a team in TC school system? looks like your right about the tc board members. I bet it would be different if they had a kid on the team
