Betsy @ Sullivan East

The Pats get Betsy and Greeneville in back to back weeks. It will just be nice to play again, on a Friday night, and not have to almost travel to Knoxville. Maybe all these road games will be rewarded with home field throughout the playoffs. I’d like to see the last 7 games be at home. 3 regular season games and 4 playoff games. That’s the goal. So, this week we go 1-0, stuff the run and harass the QB all night long. Run the ball down their throats and mix in an efficient passing attack. Continue to play sound football and improve again this week. 
Anyone seen the forecast? LOL

There are reports of a Cyclone around Sullivan county next Friday night.

I’ve had people asking me why Betsy doesn’t pick up a game on their bye week. Some are insinuating that we don’t even want a game. Considering we play G’Ville the next week, maybe having an extra week for prep isn’t a bad idea. That being said. Betsy’s bye week is on October 20th. I looked at the schedules of everyone from here to Knoxville. Not a single team has a bye week that matches ours. That’s week 9 if you’re not keeping count. So most everyone is in the middle of Region play. Maybe someone looses a game or can rearrange their schedule to make it work? I don’t know. All I know is, we play who we play, when we play them. We handle our business, and let the Lord take care of the rest.

And good luck to everyone from here on out. Safe travels, clean games and for the love of all that is good and right in the world, decent weather!

The East QB has over 1700 yards passing. #1 in the state by far. How does Elizabethton stop that passing attack? Elizabethton's defense hasn't let to many teams score when they did there were a lot of 2's on the field. Could be in for a challenge. Elizabethton's D has a lot of INTs could be a chance to rack up some more.

When your spinning the ball against Johnson county,Volunteer and Unicoi and your a pas first team anyway that don't surprise me .

If you told me East would play dirty I would call you a liar. It’s horrible. We are kicking the crap out of them (3 pics in the first half). 72 is a punk. I normally don’t call out kids, but there’s no place for that kind of play in football. These refs suck too. Letting stuff go until someone gets hurt. Go to the Tom Taylor Sports Show on Facebook live to see the crap. Knocking players down as they try to get up, hitting late. I’m all about aggressive play, but. It like that. AND he has a mouth. It’s 27-0. You got nothing to be talking about. (There’s another missed holding call).

    • 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.
