Don’t let him fool you…. Carthage folk hate the fact we have a few gold balls and they don’t

They do? I think it’s great that this county has at least one good team. All them softball rings and football ones. It’s almost like Carthage has an inferiority complex seems like.  You’d think with a 69-21-2 record against a 1A powerhouse they’d be proud of that. But nooo… seems like all they are mad about is 2 1A State championships.

Not much of a rivalry.Smith Co leads the overall 69-21-2.It's more about bragging rights

If it's not much of a rivalry, then bragging right don't mean anything. Regardless of the overall record, it's still a rivalry, and Gordonsville has won more in recent years.

We’re proud to be from GHS and they’re proud to be from SCHS. Some get a little emotional this week and to some it’s just another game. Fact is we’re both proud of our communities and schools and most of us are friends and probably won’t be hostile towards each other any more the rest of the year. If you’re not from Smith County you may not understand it. I’m glad every year when this game is over. Hopefully we’ll get to see an exciting, injury free game.

    • 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.
