HC has hit its stride at the right time. 56 is the magic number again this week. Beat Portland 56-0 two weeks ago and Mumford seems to be about the same caliber. I'll give Mumford a score since they're at home though. 56-7.

Yes, HC is back and back stronger than ever! I stated 2 to 3 weeks ago that these young men are focused and ready to make a run and will be seeing Springfield in a rematch in the 3rd round, providing they beat Memphis Central this Friday. At this point, we are all 1-0 and making a run to be 4-0 the weekend after Thanksgiving to have a trip to Cookeville the first weekend in December. At this point and time, it's 1 week at a time and they will take care of business and beat Munford this Friday night, 42-14! Roll Red Roll!

I’m not sure anyone is looking for a trip to Cookeville in December. :roflol:

Munford is very different than in years past as they have an athletic QB that has good size. They do throw the ball some but are most certainly a running team. The RB is small but has good speed. They compliment each other very well. The defense has been decent against the run most of the year but struggles in pass defense at times when they can't pressure the opposing QB.

Against Portland in the first half the Munford QB danced around a lot waiting for blocking to clear lanes before running. In the 2nd half he was way more decisive running the ball leading to them taking a 21-7 lead late in the 3Q. Portland did a good job staying ahead of the chains more of the game getting 3 to 4 yards per run leading to 3rd and 3 or less a lot during the game. But, Portland fought back to take the lead late in the game 27-21 with again solid running attack and converting some key 3rd down passes. They just left too much time on the clock and Munford put a drive together with less than 3 minutes left and was able to take the win with a solid drive. I have not seen Henry County play this year but looking at there opponents from the year and comparing scores I would give the edge to HC in this one. I predict a 10 to 14 point win for HC. I hope Munford wins but that is the way I see it shaking out.

Excuse me for stating where it's been in past years, but East TN in Chattanooga the first weekend in December. I'm not saying HC will get there, but the end goal for everyone is to be playing that weekend. HC will be in the 3rd round looking for some Yellow Jackets to destroy.

I hope we don't disappoint you.  We have Memphis Central this week to worry about.  They will be a challenge for us

    • 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.
