Okay this is it, my favorite time of year, playoff football!

There will be no rounds off this year, it will be a tough road all the way to Chatt. for all of us over in the west.

We got Brighton coming to town next Friday, they are 6-4 and that is pretty much all I know about them. I have to believe Springfield will be well prepared for whatever they bring and be able to get to round 2. HC folks I know you are a little more familiar with them than we are, what can expect from the Cardinals next Friday and how you do think we matchup with them...

Brighton has two really good skill position players. That would be the QB and RB. Sharpe is there best player. He is extremely fast. He is D1 material from what I have seen. There defense is struggling and they give up a lot of rushing yards and points against average to above average teams. They have played a weak schedule. The region they are in has only two teams that are decent in Munford (Region Champs) and Memphis Central (2nd in region) both ranked in the top 10 in the state. Brighton lost big to both of them.

I see Springfield rolling pretty decent in this one. Brighton can put up points at times but they also give up a ton at times. That Springfield defense should be the difference maker in this one. If so, Springfield may win the game something like 42 - 21.

Toughest 1st rd game in a good while for the Jackets. It sure would be nice to hang 42 on the board.

    • 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.
