Upperman TANKED!!!!!!!! BTW You all remember Riverdale got busted for tanking 8 years ago. When you are 24-6, get 4th place and lose to a 13-16 team. Either a major injury or Coach McWilliams TANKED!!!! To AVOID White Co. 

UNPOPULAR OPINION! But a Genius Move. 

And I Am The Person With Cojonas To Say It.

Happens a bunch. TSSAA needs to go to 8 Regions and have accurate seeds. No one will ever do it like Riverdale did it but I have been watching ball my whole life and teams just happen to play their worse games of the year when it benefits them the most. Missed layups, careless Turnovers, missed FT's...just a convenient lack of focus.

Upperman doesn't dodge anyone. They just aren’t playing well at the moment. Unless something major happens they won’t win a game in the region tournament. Scoring 35 a game doesn’t help. It’s hard to win when you can’t score.

David Crockett

Northview Academy

Heritage

White Co

South Side

Sycamore

Dyersburg

Crockett Co

I agree that 13AAA gets two teams to state but just not sure if it will be Crockett or South Gibson. Both schools are on the bottom half of the 7AAA bracket.

I don't have a dog in this race but is it fair to say Upperman tanked? They swept Stone in the regular season but won those games 45-42 and 41-35. Losing 47-39 after those scores doesn't sound unbelievable. The unfortunate part of consolation night is that if you lose folks just assume you were tanking. 

Truth is Stone had them beat in first game and officials bailed Upperman out.   I am not surprised they lost this game but for sure they aren’t losing any sleep over this L.  Gives them a shot at making tourney.

True. Stone is playing very well right now too.

I wouldn’t be surprised if district 7 gets two teams in. Heritage plays in the weakest region in the state this year.

Nah, may look smart ,but Upperman is trying to win, just don't have the horses like the past 10 yrs. It might work out though.

    • 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.
    • An FYI: To see how an opponent has done against another opponent since 2001- go to the game by clicking on one of the teams. Click the G beside the game. For example, Milan: The info will show you the previous matchups and other info.
