White Co. will get their due respect from Nolensville.  2 years ago the Knights with a fairly average talent but well-coached defense faced #2 ranked and undefeated Tullahoma on the road.  Tullahoma was led by star running back Jakobe Walker who now plays at MTSU.  Final 15-14 Knights and they went to the state semis.  Walker had a few big plays but no real back breakers. Different time and different players but same system and head coach in place for Nolensville.  And they seem to have better talent on D this year.  The offense is definitely more dynamic.  Nolensville D has not allowed more than 21 this year and some of those points were caused by offensive turnovers.  Dowell won't be shut down but he'll probably have tougher sledding on Friday.  Nolensville should pull this one out  but WC certainly has momentum and belief going.  It worked for NHS in 2020 and maybe it will pull WC through.  Who ever knows?

Jakobe Thomas. I’m actually in Crossville. Watched my Cyclones go down in a hard fought loss to Anderson County. But, while we were already two hours into the 5hr drive to the Borough, thought we’d trek on down to watch Jacobe and our Cyclone Parker Hughes tomorrow. Knights won on a safety when Tullahoma’s center snapped the ball over the punters head. Then in the semifinal, my Cyclones put the mercy rule on the Knights. Elizabethton had 8 offensive possessions, scored 8 TDs. Nolensville is a young school. Only been playing football for about 6-7 seasons. Thought the move to 5A would hurt them. They just keep improving. Their campus and stadium were very nice.

It was a VERY close game. It was 42-36 with under 5 minutes to play. I never said it was a historic season. Nolensville gave up about 600 yards rushing. Pee wee defense. Lol.

Holy smokes, I just looked up some historical records on White County Football and this year actually was a historic season for you guys...now I feel bad for trolling. That's pretty sad.

Wasn't that historical to us. We did have the best offense Nolensville played all year though. Sad some won't admit it.

Nolensville walks with this one. I think they rest starters in the second half and the score ends up closer than the game. Still not sold on WC. 

Wrong. The starters didn't get to rest at all. Lol.

Actually the final score wasn't indicative of how tight this game was. Now you're sold on WC even though you won't admit it.

They had a good season by White County standards. Winning a first round playoff game was astronomical… for them. Good programs expect to win a playoff game or two and don’t brag about doing so. WC finished 9-3 and really didn’t beat anyone. But I get it. This is their best record and first time this century they won a playoff game. Now go hide away and realize that doesn’t make you world beaters in the eyes of programs that expect more.

Just admit you were wrong about us. You keep mentioning the past. THIS TEAM was better than you gave credit. Unfortunately we made 2 big mistakes that cost us the win.

I mention the past for one reason… 9-3 is a really good year by WC standards. 9-3 is an average year and perhaps underperforming for others. I’m not wrong, we just have different expectations and perceptions of what good is.

    • 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.
    • An FYI: To see how an opponent has done against another opponent since 2001- go to the game by clicking on one of the teams. Click the G beside the game. For example, Milan: The info will show you the previous matchups and other info.
    • All these college signees went yo other schools for 3 years, were getting college offers then transferred to Bearden. It’s not like this staff did much to develop them.    The BBall coaches son and the Seymour transfer were some of the most talented QBs in the region, and you guys developed them into QBs who might complete one pass a game.
