WB needs a break from Maryville. Neither team gets anything out of that game right now and the fans don't get excited. There's no mystery and everyone knows what's going to happen. After we drop

The Govs wrapped up another 4-6 season with a 35-6 win over Lenoir City tonight. It was an ugly win. Our offense was dreadful and we scored 35 points. What does that say about Lenoir City? They really struggled... That is the nicest way to say it.

I think that shows that we are way better than we were when we played Heritage because Heritage beat Lenoir City by a point and we were really fortunate to beat Heritage the night we played them.

I feel pretty good about where the football program is. We just closed out back-to-back 4-win seasons, our best two-year stretch in over a decade. The best part is we had a young team this year.

Now here are some negative things that need to be corrected if we want to improve next year:

#1- Our o-line has to get better, period. We couldn't get a push and Clemmer had defensive players in his face a lot this year. If we can get o-line play like we had in 2019 again we could have a really good offense because we have good receivers who can make plays.

 

#2-  This goes along with #1. We need to get better at running the ball. Rushing for 30-something yards in a game isn't a winning recipe in 6A football, especially on nights like tonight where wet balls make it hard to be effective in the pass game.

 

#3-  We don't know whether we will be going north or south in the new region, but we know we will have to make a few long road trips either way. We have to find a way to play well on those long road trips because we have laid some major eggs on the road. We played our worst games of the season at Elizabethton and Cleveland. At some point we are going to have win on the road to get into the playoffs or advance in the playoffs. Playing on the road and riding a bus for two hours is a big disadvantage, but teams still find a way to win those games anyway. 

Now let's go play basketball! I think the boys' team can be pretty good this year. 

Football seniors, I appreciate your efforts and have enjoyed watching you guys play and improve over the last several years.

And congratulations to Trey Clemmer for becoming the Govs' leading passer in school history with over 6,000 yards.  We certainly hate to lose Clemmer, but fortunately his younger brother Matthew looks good too. I think we are in good hands at the quarterback position. Go Govs!

Clemmers Daddy was a baller!!!  Great Man, hoping they make up the boys basketball game with McMinn Central so we can see his boys play.
