Congratulations to both schools. You made it the final prize. Win or lose you all did something that the other several teams in class 1 a couldn't do and that is get to the final game and contend for a championship. I've been on both sides of winning it all and losing it, lot's of emotions that will be played in your minds for a long time. Enjoy this time because you might not ever get back again. Nothing is promised. From this Army veteran I salute both teams. 

Thank you  for your service! Hope the young men on both of these teams win or lose enjoys this experience. Pray for no injuries and that players, coaches  and fans alike  display good sportsmanship! GO REBELS!!! WE ARE PROUD OF YOU NO MATTER WHAT

His time will be short lived on the T anyway. He dropped a four letter on the AC a potential threat to Greeneville thread on the 3 and 4 A board

Who are you referring to stray kitten. I know it’s not me. I’d never use such verbiage online. And I’d be the first to tell the teacher. Seriously a 4 letter word. I’m appalled.

Parking isn’t terrible. Expect to pay $10 wherever you park though. 

I would highly recommend parking at the south lot.  last year I parked in the large north lot and it was insane getting out.  like grains of sand going through an hour glass.  this year we went to the south lot and actually parked for free on the street past the dog kennel but there were 2 pay lots on the right and left as you go in which looked much better.  it was super easy to get out as well.

You haven't seen McKenzie's backup QB in #14 T. Surber. In my opinion he's the best backup in 1A, as a Freshman he could've started for any HS around. However he didn't start at Qb 1, but as Outside LB and is an All State candidate this year as a Sophomore at that position. He will get his reps as Qb1 as a Jr, and Sr. & could quite possibly be Mckenzie's next Mr. Football candidate from 1A. You heard it hear first. Feel free to ask any other posters from this area!

Maybe most proven backup would have been better way of putting it. I'm sure Surber is likely a talented future qb for the Rebels. However, how many current backup QBs in 1A have their school's single season record for passing yards? Nonetheless, it certainly proves that both teams have championship level talent (as injuries are an unfortunate part of the game and hurt 1A teams the most, both teams have been able to fight through them), and should make for a great game tomorrow.

I'm talking about real offers. I know he claims an offer from UT, but they would not accept a commitment from him. Does he have a legit offer from Ken Tuck?

It is sad how a lot of recruiting works in football. Not speaking on this case in particular, but there definitely should not be a case where a school "offers" a kid and the kid cannot commit based on that. That's about as bad as the airlines overselling the seats. If you can't take a certain kid at the moment, just tell the kid his interest is appreciated at the moment, but there is not a spot available at the moment.

Can someone just list the “actual offers” he has? Obviously it’s not a lot of power 5 teams. But what is his Top Offer. Maybe Wake Forest or South Alabama. He’s a great athlete and i wish him all the best at the next level regardless of where he goes.

Buffalo and Kansas are the only ones to offer him this calendar year it looks like from an unapproved site. Who knows who will be there tomorrow watching if he shows out on the biggest stage. I think being in 1a has hurt him and Cassidy both, but they will both find a place they fit even if it is a smaller division school.

    • 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.
