South Pittsburg vs McKenzie (stone man and little grider man against this comer man)

This Game will come down turnovers. If Spitt can NOT turn the ball over and stop Mckenzie for a couple drives we will be in it at the end. The Pirate offense will be fine. The Runningbacks speed may be the difference. 2 forced punts and no turnovers and it's a Game at the end. South Pitt 28 Mckenzie 27

Old Pirate says # 75 has not stepped up his effort or play! Certainly he is better than others for the Pirates, But a real D1 prospect abilities hasn’t been shown upon return. Maybe this title game will raise the intensity & level fer all the Pirates. Pirate -1+

57 is by far the best D lineman we have in my opinion. 75 has the size but 57 is a better player because he plays with heart and a gritty attitude.

I see sp as 14 point underdogs in this race. Turnovers are going to be key. The pirates are gonna have to play 100% mistake free in this game to have a chance. I never thought I would see this team in the ship but they have overcame a lot of obstacles. One thing different about this team vs others in recent years is they play well together and have tons of heart. McKenzie has an excellent ball team and will next year as well. I think it will be a disappointment is McKenzie loses like sp last year. One thing I would love to see is our line block very well and someone cover 28 1on1. I haven’t seen it happen all year including Oakland.

The fact McKenzie beat Peabody is telling to me and should be to most that have kept up all year. Don’t get me wrong South Pitt is more impressive on offense than they have been in the past but their defense hasn’t seen another offense beside Oakland that’s close to what McKenzie is gonna have. Taylor is the best running back in 1A & 2A. Now I think South Pitt can play with them and make a game of it if offense plays well but after South Pitt’s D Line allegedly got abused Friday by Cloudland I have my doubts as to how good South Pitts D is. I was impressed by Pirates passing against Gordonsville but I recall being disappointed in what I saw defensively from #75 Davis kid. Maybe he is still hurt but I thought he was kinda timid and played soft. Barely even recognized him from last State game. Looked much smaller from what I remembered too. South Pitt is gonna need his best game of his career to have a shot and likely some turnovers as well to keep it close. I’m just keeping it real

    • 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.
