One of the states oldest rivalries takes place Thursday night in White House. Both teams are coming off lopsided loses Friday night. The Bobcats are supposed to be as good this year as they’ve been in sometime while the Devils are replacing most of their offense from a year ago. Hopefully some Cats fans will give us their thoughts this week. I’m going WH 21-14.

As a former Bobcat, I can tell you the Defense is solid. Greenbrier’s Offense is what hurt them against Springfield. Of course, the Yellow Jackets are a really good team and have a stout D. But, the Bobcats turned the ball over inside the Red Zone twice in the 1st Half. Both times were Interceptions. I left at Halftime to head to Bowling Green for the Heritage game. 
 

The QB for Greenbrier, I think his last name is Arnold is better than what they have had. Arnold can really run for a White Boy. One of the issues is the Offensive Line. It has struggled in all the scrimmages and the 1 game I’ve seen them in. That’s very unusual for a Greenbrier team. We have always had solid Linemen. Since it’s a rivalry, it could be a low scoring game. I don’t know what WH has this season after losing Ranen and others.

This is a fun rivalry when at least one team is good. I like white house at home cautiously in this one.  Springfield seemed to beat the will out of GB last week and I don't see them rebounding. I heard from one that was in their locker room that several didnt even want to play in the second half last week..true or not i don't know. I do know they suffered some injuries.

QB for Greenbrier (#9) name is Nolan Carson. He literally had to run for his life all night when he dropped back to pass, plays safety on defense and then became their punter after a couple of series when their starting punter had a couple of shanks. This is all in addition to the cross country match he ran during the game from far hash to his sideline to get every play. That being said and with it being warm and early in the season, its no wonder the kid starting cramping towards the end of the game.

#9 may not have the size that others on his team have, but he is the best football player on that team. He's just a Jr and should get some looks from people that know more abt football than you and I.

That’s it! I don’t know why I said Arnold. Nolan has some wheels and I don’t know why they want him running to the sideline to get the play every time. Send a skills player (RB or WR) in with the play. That’s how we used to do it, lol.

#9 plays with a TON of heart

    • 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.
