If I was calling an upset I would say Lookout over Gordy… but that would be a major upset!!

If Whitwell’s quarterback was healthy I would say they have a good chance of making the quarters. 
 

 

I agree.  It was unfortunate Whitwell's qb broke his leg.

after the end of the season I will make my opinons on this topic:

* Only doing West TN teams..

 

1A - surprise - Dresden ( HUGE WIn over Westview)

      - Flop - West Carroll

 

2A - Surprise - Huntingdon ( Lots of people , myself included had Huntingdon at 5-6 wins this season)

        Flop        - Adamsville ( I thought they would win 7/8 this season. )

2A Flops- 

1. Forrest - majority of key players returned from a quarterfinal team and did not qualify for playoffs. Only 1 region win. Went from 1st to 5th in 6 team region. Worst record since 2004. Most points allowed in school history. 

2. Marion County - big lineman and fast backs and did not make the playoffs. 2 region wins. 

3. Watertown - missed the playoffs in spite of a 2-3 region record. Went from first to 5th in region. 

4. Trousdale- only 2 wins on the season but clinched a playoff spot to avoid the #1 spot on the list.

2A Surprise - 

1. Mt. Pleasant -  8-1 record and Region Champs. Went from worst to first in Region 5. Had only won 4 games in the previous 2 seasons. 

2. Richland - 8-2 record. Went from 5th to 2nd in region. Doubled 2021's win total. 

3. East Robertson - went from a 5-6 team to 9-1 region champs with a brand new coach.

When Marion lost the senior running back in the 2nd game everybody knew it was a coin toss the rest of the season

We lost a senior running back in the first quarter of game 1. Fastest kid on the team and best DB. It definitely didn't help us but in no way an excuse for our 3-7 finish. Forrest and Marion had two of the worst defenses in 2A this season. Both fanbases have legit gripes about the season.

    • 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.
