From my perch at West high,
I’ll take Kingsport in this matchup. Bearden’s pass game looked nonexistent against Farragut. QB hasn’t gotten much better since last year, hard to improve arm strength or lack there of. Everyone knows they can’t run the ball. Stupid routes. Kingsport is good up front and offensive skill positions and is always well coached.

Waco, it says here Kingsport is always well coached.  Whaddya think?

edward just thought he was posting on the Basketball thread. That happens sometimes this time of the year.

In the past 10 years Bearden has been bounced in the first round every time except 2019.      DB in the same period has only been bounced 3 times in round 1.         Have not seen either team play this season but based on history I'm going with the Indians 24-21

DB will win this if they don't self destruct.  If DB doesn't help them with busts and penalties etc.  They can win this game.  They don't have to be perfect,  Just play mostly clean football.

Agreed. DB will shutdown their offense and get some big running plays to seal the deal.

Oridge the self destruct thing seems to be following DB like a flea on dog. Whether it’s the conservative coaching or the undisciplined play but man I wanna pick DB in this because the way they played Greeneville. My prediction is DB will be out coached Friday night and the penalty bug continues as the Indians are beat at home by Bearden.   
Bearden-35    DB-28

My bad. Just now seen the other thread

 I saw Bearden many weeks ago and DB recently as an OR fan.  I agree with the view that DB wins if they don't lose the TO battle. Close and fairly low scoring game, IMO.

I'm sticking with the Indians with this one! Good luck to the Tribe and fans!

I like D-B in a close one in this game.  D-B wins 28-21.
