105 yards in penalties, 4 turnovers, yet still found a way to win. I’ve been saying this every week it seems like, but we have got to clean up the penalties. There’s just no excuse for it at this point in the season. With that said, proud of our guys for getting the dub.

Please tell me you got to see Willie doing the Griddy?

 Yea, the penalties at this point are ridiculous, happens over and over and over. IF ( and they have not done this all season) they could play a game with 0 TOs and say 4 penalties max, I honestly think we can beat Powell.

 

 OR can run the ball now and we probably have the best TB tandem in the state. We play good team D, but, we self destruct worse than any team I have ever seen in HS, college or the NFL.

 

 Still fun night for the win. I'm proud of the team for overcoming all the flaws.

I didn't think either team wanted to win there for a while . Then the zebras got involved, they were flag-happy all game long. Seemed like Oak Ridge got most of them but I'm sure they tried to be fair and equal them out. haha

Once again we had too many penalties, guess we like to start at 1st and 15. Oh Well we won. Gotta watch the replay to see who got the block on the final field goal.  Guess he needs a WWA shirt!  Oh and my Great GrandSon got to start tonite, on the opening kickoff!

Anybody see the fumble OR had on the 1 yard line? Could’ve sworn OR recovered then lost it in a wrestling match. Really exciting ending for a non OR/McMinn fan.

Oak Ridge QB had it and the McMinn Co player tied it up like a jump ball in front of ref and somehow gave it to McMinn.Should of never happened because Jai scored play before with half his body in endzone and ref somehow spots him short.Plus 2 plays after fumble calls huge P.foul late hit on Rogers for holding the runner up from running into fence.Wasnt close.And then a huge facemask call that wasnt close to being a facemask.Refs tried their best to take McMinn down the field.And the huge drive by Oak Ridge to get to the 1 they had to overcome at least 3 holding calls.It was bad and after refs ripped off Oak Ridge last yr when they called back the game winning TD in final seconds on an awful call.That was bad but these refs dont need to not be back doing any playoff games

I would say moog and Noe from ac and Latham and Cole from West are better but that's just my opinion

Heard the zebras were from Knoxville, if so that explains the bad calls, those guys from the Knoxville league are known to be awful. These are supposed to be the best , sure missed the mark inAthens last night.

On a better thought Brandin Hayward #13 blocked the last field goal with his head. Actually the ball hit him in the helmet.

    • 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.
