Oakland vs Blackman

Some of the more vocal Blaze defenders seem eerily quiet.  Seems odd. 

Will this be the week the Blaze turn in that "complete" game that some of the Blackman faithful have been waiting for?  Nah.  Games are never perfect for any team.  Balls bounce in directions you don't want, refs miss calls, players get beat, coaches screw up. A million things can and will go wrong.  The most fundamentally sound team will most likely win.  The Blaze gave up two touchdowns to Antioch in the first half last week.  If my calculations are correct, that's like 8 Oakland td's.  Kinda like a dog years type thing.

What do the Blaze  think it will take to get a win?  Offense is obviously good but how is the defense going to step it up?  They haven't shown thusfar to be very stingy.

Antioch scored more against Blackman than they had all season. They have no chance in this game lol

Yes they are still looking for the "complete game", but at this point I would take 4Q of football.  The 3rd quarter nap turned into the 1Q - "oh we have a game this week" against Antioch. With that said, I expect an exciting, heart stopping, nail biting game - with the Blaze winning by 2, on some bizarre never before seen play, beamed in from the new starlink satellite that CCT and Musk collaborated on to have placed above the Inferno to support all the tech. 

I hope this poast met your expectations. But I hope even more that my prognosis is accurate.

Sure it met my expectations.   Thanks!  Really just looking for some opposition to banter back and forth with.   All in fun.  

I think both the Oakland and Blackman fans have been looking forward to this matchup all season. It will be a good barometer for Blackman to see where they really are among the elite of TN football.   At the same time Blackman can certainly win the game unlike most everyone else Oakland plays.  Don't think they will but this one can go either way.

    • 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.
