Lake co definately gets respect playing haywood, uc, even obion this year.  If lake is injury free i believe those games will help them in the playoffs.  I wouldn't recommend any 1a team scheduling haywood.  Brutal size and talent.  Haven't kept up with Lake co injuries.... anything serious ?  Depth always hurts small schools

I'm hoping the ankle injuries to the qb and receiver is minor and LC opted to not have them dress in 2nd half.Day Day injured his shoulder against West Carroll after scoring about 3 tds and didn't play second half or against Haywood.Think 68 said he was ok so I'm sure he was just held out against Haywood.Just saw MyMy didn't have a concussion.

With Riversides remaining schedule is there even a chance they make it back in the ranking BPM?

That one's easy...don't lose and you'll end the season at #1 on everybody's poll.

What trader said is definitely true but to answer your question I say it is highly likely as long as you win out.  A win over Adamsville this week wouldn’t be a bad win as they are currently a .500 team. And a win over Lewis in the regular season finale would be a good win on the resume. South Gibson will probably take a 3rd loss this week to Haywood and the Stanks have to play Union City to close out the season so one of those teams will take a another loss. Those are just the games I can think of off the top of my head that will have an impact. There could be others.

I don't think USJ is a top 10 squad. They lost to Union City. Biggest win is over an overrated Hardin Co team. What your reasoning for their ranking?

Several reasons. First they brought back a ton off of last years team which was pretty good. I have heard you mention scrimmages several times so I will follow suit. Two they beat a good Peabody team in a pre season scrimmage. Three would be quality wins. Yes they lost to Union City but it was tooth and nail the whole way. They have two quality wins in Hardin Co. and JCS. I know you think Hardin Co. is over rated but they are still 5-2 in class 4A and JCS has 1 loss. Everyone else has been a blowout as it should. This is my reasoning.

Don't forget we also have Peabody next week. We could finish the season with 4 losses. I said several weeks ago with our stretch of Milan, Westview, Trenton, and UC, I would feel pretty good about going 2-2 in those games. We got Milan, but neither Trenton or UC will lay down for us. We got our work cut out.

Yes. The game next week will be huge.

    • 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.
