This one has all sorts of special interests...not the least of which is the Father vs. Son match up.

 

 

Who knows what the Father vs Son relationship will play in this game? Knowing how kids love to beat their parents, this could really get the CC guys fired up. On the other hand, all of the LC guys know and love the Son, but would love to beat him. Hmmm....

 

It has certainly stirred up conversation in LC. How about you folks in CC? Are you talking about this new source of rivalry?

Lincoln County with only 40+ players is not depth. And there is a considerable drop off from theie 1st team. Can you imagine 2nd teamers as good as their defenisve tackles, QB and TB? Naw. Not there. The only depth they have is that if one of their starters goes down, they have plenty of other weapons to go to in their starting lineup!

As many have said, for this game to be somewhat close, Coffee County will have to control the clock and keep Lincoln County off the field. And to do that would take Nunley running the ball. The defense has struggled the last couple weeks, which isn't a good sign coming into this game. Lincoln County is a machine and I don't think this week will be no different, but there is a reason you play the game. However, the Falcons should roll in similar fashion as they have all season long.

why not Coffee Co. by 3 in OT.

Well, one reason why not is that in OT, both teams get the ball on the 10 yd. line with 4 downs. I don't see Coffee Co., or anyone else holding Lincoln County when they have 1st and goal at the 10...unless they fumble it away. But all that is mental gymnastics for nothing. This one will never get to overtime.

 

But, I don't think the margin will be as onesided as some are predicting. Biggest reason is Coach Thompson doesn't like to score over 50 pts....unless it takes that to win.

Coffee County won the first ever game in the Pit, for what that's worth. It might not mean a thing. The best I can remember Lincoln County was supposed to win that night. Lincoln County has scored more points on Coffee County in one game. This could be a good game especially after last week. (Howard) I don't think those games are good for anybody except the reserves. Lincoln County's starters barely got to play over 1 quarter. I hope they can recover and get back on track but it might not be as easy as they think.

ButterBandit, I remember in 1997 when Coffee County embarrassed Lincoln County in "The Pit".

 

That year Coffee County was the #2 seed of Region 4-5A behind Riverdale at #1 and ahead of two others, I'm thinking it was Smyrna and Lincoln County? I can't remember. I just remember how good it felt to be that good. We humilitated Franklin County that year too! And that game was in Winchester. We beat Murfreesboro-Oakland at their Homecoming game! That was a dang good year, and while I think the Red Raiders are having a good season given their schedule, I still contest that the 1997 Red Raiders could beat this year's Red Raiders but that's just my biased opinion.

    • And can you tell me who those two quarterbacks were, and every kid that was put into college from Bearden is a Bearden kid? It’s kind of why they graduated from Bearden.   and I would definitely not consider ETSU “waste”…
    • Most of this is complete gibberish. But the one part I could decipher is putting kids in college. This coaching staff hasn’t put a single Bearden kid in college. They completed wasted one of the best WRs in East TN and have ruined two talented QBs. All because they’re in over their heads. 
    • Well, I’d hope the new coaching staff thinks they are all that because they can always walk around the school, anytime they want, thinking that, especially for what they’ve done for the student athletes and the players, putting more kids in college in his first season than the old coaching staff did in numerous years combined, but we will just sweep over that because I know you don’t like facts. But trust me, nobody wanted Mr. Big britches, made the star player switch to quarterback, which is ultimately the reason he ended up transferring to play the position. He loved, but unfortunately, had to be at another school because Mr. Big Britches doesn’t like when a teenager knows more than him, but can’t expect much coming from a guy who used all class throwing pencils up into the ceiling and making fun of football kids who were failing class right to their face, and in front of numerous students, even projecting on the board most of the time.
    • After that first paragraph, I can see why you’re a TA and not a teacher. Have you made the move from South Knoxville to Bearden yet?    Maybe he left because he is an actual teacher and coach, and didn’t want to be associated with a group of foul mouthed middle school coaches who like to pretend they’re big time. 
    • Yeah and the coach is gone. Whole bizarre situation here. We played them a couple of times at MTSU last few years. She was a player for sure.
