I’m not impressed with Marion no disrespect to them but Huntingdon and Riverside could hang with them any day of the week. Lewis County could also. 

You very well could be right but it’s just hard for me to get a grip on Lewis and riverside alike ! Both have Awesome coaches that seem to fold to athletic teams that can do more than run the ball ,  and believe me that’s no slight on Riverside , I love Coach Frost !!! It just seems the last few years neither team has had the althletic ability to match up with teams that can toss it around !

I think Meigs as earned that #1 spot until they get beat. I think Westview has a very very good chance of that this year.

Very good point also.Ive seen Meigs they are a very good team and yes they have done nothing to lose the top spot as of now.I just dont know if them or Marion have enough??

IMHO, Marion will beat you with their speed.  If you stop that, it will be a long night for the Warriors.  They’ve got a good freshman group so even if they don’t make state, they aren’t dropping off any time soon.  Just never know though

Marion isn't very good at the moment.  Good enough to win what had been in front of them, but they will have to have success throwing it a little if they get where they want to be.  Throwing 1 time per game isn't going to cut it deeper in the season.

I can't speak for other aforementioned 2a teams but I can speak on Westview. 

They are very good. In every phase of the game. Spectacular on offense even. Also well disciplined with a special teams kicking field goals as fast as Simpson throws TDs. They pile up points QUICKLY. It's going to be a tall order to defeat them IMO. Not saying it's impossible though. A very powerful running game and a great defense could pose them problems. Does anyone in 2a got that?

To be honest no one at Marion has been impressed so far either. I've only watched highlights of the 3 teams you mentioned. Riverside and Huntingdon should be able to hang with them because they're top 10 teams as well. I'm not sold on Lewis Co. but of course seeing something on video is a lot different than in person.

    • 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.
