Exactly. Anyone who thinks Bruceton nearly beat Huntingdon doesn't know anything about the game except the final score. Bruceton didn't get the ball past the 50 until the 4th quarter I believe. Huntingdon had several long drives that petered out due to either turnovers or penalties.

It was a very sloppy game. Probably Huntingdon's worst game of the year. But if you dive down into the stat sheet, it wasn't as close as what the score implies.

That being said, there's no doubt Cornersville can beat Huntingdon if they play like that again. But that version of the Mustangs seems to have disappeared at halftime vs Camden. Playing much better ball than they were early in the year.

Don’t think Cornersville can stop Huntingdon or score with them. Expect this one to be over by halftime.

Here's the deal--this isn't the first rodeo between these two teams. 2017 Huntingdon came to Cornersville in what turned out to be an epic, hard hitting, down to the wire ball game. 2018 in Huntingdon, same type of game. 2019, Cornersville had it handed to them. Both teams know what the other will bring. Sure there will be wrinkles and "eye candy", but in the general sense for both teams is they are going to line up and play their style of ball and it will be up to the other side to stop it. I honestly feel like this game will be closer than some think. No smack talking from me this year. I believe respect has been earned from both sides.

Man you won't get any out of me either. After this year when we move on back to 2A, the word Cornersville will still resonate in Huntingdon for years and years to come. Its been fun!

I feel like Huntingdon chances of getting to Cookeville are fairly good. I also think there's a chance they get beat in the first round. Mustangs have keep fumbles and penalties at a minimum to advance. I expect every game to be a dogfight. 

I was proud of what the dogs did Friday night. Took adversity and over came it. Too many missed opportunities against region opponents this season, which is why we are in the 4 spot. Bulldogs need to keep penalties and fumbles at a minimum as well to have a chance. Excited for another big matchup with the mustangs.

Opening kickoff - good return for huntingdon. First play from scrimmage turnover on a fumble. Cornersville takes over near midfield. First play for C'Ville fumbled exchange between QB and RB. Huntingdon gets the ball back. Puts together a nice drive for a TD

6-0 Huntingdon. 

Cornersville goes 3 and out

Huntingdon 2 plays for another TD. 

 

14-0 Mustangs

7:07 left in first

    • 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.
