Blazer, Topper 1972 grad. 6th class Topper athletic Hall of fame. BUT 31 years of teaching, coaching and administrator at good ole’ GHS. Married the beautiful and brand new home ec teacher. 3 daughters matriculated from good ole’ GHS. I’m a Devil first and foremost my T friend.

Well then as a former Topper you can still accept the congratulations.     If most of us were honest we did not expect to see Science Hill still alive in round 3 and yet here they are.

I really don’t think anyone honestly believed SH would make it to the 3rd round of the playoffs. But as you said, here they are. They’re playing their best ball of the season at the right time. That says a lot about the players and (as much as some might want to disagree) the coaches. They’ve looked well prepared and ready to go the last few weeks.

Thanks for sharing the relations of my son. That was many moon’s ago and as Andy said watching Tyler. “He was never  that good”. Of course I disagree since he was my hero growing up. Tyler has been blessed with God given talent and years of speed and agility training and of course Alabama football camps.  He was always over looked due to size but now is getting a chance and wants nothing but success for his team and brothers for life. This team is special and right now they just want one more game together each time they play.

Looking forward to watching Mr. Moon somehow from west Tennessee this Friday.

I did. I thought everyone hyping up BC, Farragut, and Bearden was a lil premature.

What happened to Farragut's well-coached defense?  Moon and co ran for over 400 yards!  And they only threw for 11.  Did not see that one coming.  Will be interesting to see how both SH and MHS handle the rematch

Farragut never could stop the run. Bearden came back on them in the second half running the ball. Not sure why teams stop running the ball against them. SH just kept running it. Why stop something when it is working. Was kind of surprised Farragut did as good as they did. Offense pretty good. Thought they would have to score every play and hope the defense got a stop. Beech, West, Oak Ridge, Maryville, and Bearden ran the ball good against them.

    • 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.
