Dragons by 17. CC seems to have reverted back to the old CC of my youth.

On paper, Clinton should be at least a 21pt favorite to win....but I feel like Clinton should've won this game last year too.

I think Clinton has a lot to prove after their first 2 losses. Prove to everyone that they are better than that 

Probably be a high scoring game.

I’ve seen CC play a couple times and it looks like they are better on D then some think. 
 

Where I think Clinton can make some headway is playing off of the routine nature of the price twins. They are going to run what they run no matter what CC sees formation wise and a team can get them out of position just based off of formations, shifts, and alignment. 
 

last year, CC went empty a lot and put their RB out as the number 1 WR and Clinton didn’t adjust very well to a OLB trying to run with their best player in the slot.  CC will 100% try and do that again as that’s something they think they can out smart people with. I think Clinton is up for the challenge in this post season implication game and win by a touchdown.

I remember several years ago when Clinton played CC at home, I'm thinking it is when Kerr was at Clinton....Clinton would load the box to stop CC's run and CC would pass. Clinton would drop back into pass coverage, and CC would run a QB draw or run up the middle. Basically the Price Twins out coached Kerr that night. 

You have to be willing and capable of adjusting during the game. In game adjustments are key. 

Most people say a win is a win. They don't care if they win by 1 point.  I can see that depending on who you're playing. For instance, if you're playing Alcoa or Greeneville and win by 1 point, I'd take it.  But if I'm playing a bad team, I believe it's important to beat them soundly.

Campbell County was in a game down to the wire with King's Academy who don't have enough players to practice against each other. This shouldn't even be a conversation. If Clinton were to lose this one after that they would win Barney's HEF Award for the week {Huge Embarrassing Failure}. Last week had Campbell County lost to Kings Academy they would have won it but the Greenback coach showed his behind and made all their fans mad after their game so he won the award.

    • 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.
