2A-8

[cuz]

I'm aware of the score trust me but until 3 minutes in the game the score was 14-6 then Carlos chambers ran a fumble back for 70 yards and show scrambled in after we gained no yards on any passes from our 35 what I'm getting at is that even though the final score is 20 or more it didn't get that way until 45 min of the 48 min game had past

I was there and know exactly how the score became what it was. It also took a little more time than 3 min, but with the help of some poor officiating it turned out the way it did. I would never compare that to you average Friday night game, or to the Bearden/PC game. By the way history leans toward Bearden vs Woodlawn........

They might but I don't think so. 2010 was a down year for JC, if you remember and we beat Woodlawn....
2010-09-17 at Woodlawn  W, 36 - 10
Bearden beat us twice that year and if I remember correctly there was a lot of problems on Bearden's team when they played Woodlawn, suspensions and such. I hope Woodlawn is starting to become a team, the conference needs it, I just don't think they're there yet.............

[THA TRUTH]

That was the worst junction team since 97 of course I remember but bearden is just that bad this year that's also why I believe jc will mercy rule bearden

[HorseFeathers]

Let me butt in here....Just how "Bad" is bearden in your opinion? Are they at the they just suck level that you basically group the rest of the state in....Or still above that?

[THA TRUTH]

They are  not the 2nd best team in the state is put hazen above them and maybe even epc the number so hurt them but there also isn't much there to work with like past teams young is all they have that can hurt a good football team if u can contain him from running then u get the win cause his passing isn't very good

[cuz]

True and I think you're right, JC is just that good. But I still think no one else is that close to Bearden in our conference. I think Rison will play them close, but other than that no one else. We'll know for sure this time tomorrow....... I don't think anyone will come within 4 TD's of JC this year if that close.............[

[Classof91]

He is an ok player not real good young is the only real good player on that team

I haven't posted since last December I think but I had to respond to this one.....man you couldn't be more wrong.  The young man you are referring to is the 2nd best player on the team and with Young on the team that is saying a lot.  He is also one of the vocal leaders of the team.  I promise you he is a tremendous loss to the team and everyone is awaiting his return in Bearden.  He's a great young man off the field as well so that makes it even better.

Bearden has some type of other gear when they play JC.  It comes from knowing who JC really is, more so than most everyone else not in the 8.....like em or hate em, everyone respects JC and they've earned it.  I'm afraid this years matchup will be similar to the matchup where Defonta had to move up from 9th grade the week of the game due to our starting QB suffering a broken arm...I would love to be wrong, but I'm not......ugly it was.....and ugly it most likely will be...


I would say Junction by a way big ole bunch and then Bearden or Rison (too close to call at the moment), Woodlawn, PC, Strong....


JC 2nd stringers - mercy rule every other 2A team except for maybe the top 2 or 3 other teams.
JC 3rd stringers - would compete in all other districts and would win two of them.
JC 1st stringers - probably will mercy rule every other opponent including whoever faces them in the championship game.
JC 1st stringers - win 3A handily
JC 1st stringers - would compete nicely in 4A

That catches me up probably until this time next year.....I'm out.....

So....What your saying is if you can slow down their QB, then drawing Bearden in the 2nd round isn't a death sentence on your season like in years past...I like it lol



JC 1st stringers win 3A Handily? Srsly? they have the capability to hypothetically win the class...but I don't think it's near the definition of "handily"..of course that's all hypothetically speaking.

how would that go between hermitage and strong. Hermits gotta win thursday to get in? or what

[catbearfan1]

Just curious about the possibilities. If Woodlawn happens to beat Rison. And Bearden beats Hermitage.  There would be a three way tie for second place. How would that shake up the playoff picture?

No way Rison loses to Woodlawn. They lost their star back to a torn acl, but even healthy they couldn't beat Rison.....

[dragondad]

With 41-0 and the clock rolling, why leave your star in the game to get hurt when he'd been the work horse all night. Especially when you know a win against Rison to take 3rd and a better draw in playoffs.   I'm hoping #20's injury isn't as bad as it seemed and he can make a comeback, he's a beast of a runner up the middle and I'm not sure Rison's D-line could stop him.

Rison stopped Young and Bearden to win, I think they'll handle Woodlawn.............

[Dragon I]

36 points is stopping someone?

[THA TRUTH]

Yea that's just dumb

[cuz]

36 points is stopping someone?

Winning 49-36 is playing better than the other team. If you read the post you might comprehend the jest of the statement. Bearden puts up 22 on Woodlawn in a half of a game, then why would you think Woodlawn can beat Rison.....

Yea that's just dumb

No what's dumb is your disrespect for other people.....

[catbearfan1]

So you're saying that nearly 300 all purpose yards and 3 or 4 tds is defined  as stopping someone?

[cuz]

So you're saying that nearly 300 all purpose yards and 3 or 4 tds is defined  as stopping someone?

Stopping someone from winning is different than stopping someone or something in their tracks. Read the all the posts, before jumping to conclusions. The conversation was Woodlawn having a chance to beat Bearden, not Rison literally stopping Bearden in their tracks............

[THA TRUTH]

Maybe u should use different words next time cause ur misuse  for what u are trying to say is the real problem

. Woodlawn DID NOT lose their Star Back.  He got the wind knocked out of him on a fumble.  Back up RB got hurt, but now says he'll be ready for Rison.  2 subs are out.

[cuz]

Wasn't trying to spread false info seark, just heard when he limped off and didn't come back he had a tore acl. Glad to hear different, hope the young man and the other boys are doing well.........

[searkhogfan]

Not a problem. They thought our backup RB tore his ACL. But it wasn't & he says he'll play Friday.  The kid is tough as a Pine Knot. So I believe him.  He's the 2014 State Champ in wrestling in his weight division.

[dragonpride27]

Glad none of them were really hurt....much improved team!!  can see them beating rison from a physical standpoint...ran all over us but fumbled and made mistakes...best team weve played since smackover.  deserve the 2 seed!! Bearden n rison overrated and had no success on us. Was a closer game at half w woodlawn than w bearden or rison....but that might have been due to a few home cooking calls!!!! Jones is 2nd best back in conference by far

[searkhogfan]

Lol. I still get a kick out folks considering that crew as serving up Home Cooking.  The only questionable call I saw against JC. Was when they called JC offsides when Woodlawn clearly moved.  But was later told they called JC for being lined up off sides. Before Woodlawn moved.  I didn't see that, but I saw our kid move. 

JC played a very uncharacterlistic, undisciplined game.  And I'm sure after watching the game film.  Coach Carpenter will work that out.  I don't think there's a team from 7A down. That JC can't play with, if not beat. 

[bleudog]

how would that go between hermitage and strong. Hermits gotta win thursday to get in? or what

Basically yes.

Scenario 1)
Strong   2-5 (has bye in week 10 so district record is set)
WINS: Hermitage (48-22)     13
          Hampton (16-0)        13
                                        26
 
     
Parkers Chapel   2-5 (assumes win over Hampton in Week 10)
WINS: Strong (46-30)            13
          Hampton (?-?)              ?


Hermitage   2-5 (assumes loss to Bearden in Week 10)
WINS: Hampton (38-6)              13
          Parkers Chapel (62-61)      1
                                              14 


Parkers is in the drivers seat for the #5 seed.

If PC beats Hampton by more than 1, Hermitage is out due to having the lowest amount of tiebreaker points. 

Strong is out next due to head-to-head loss to PC.


Scenario 2)
A win by Hermitage over Bearden would have the Hermits at 3-4 and in sole possession of the #5 spot.


Scenario 3)
A PC loss or one point win would have Strong in (assuming a Hermits loss to Bearden) due to head-to-head win over Hermitage.

[dragondad]

Just how I viewed it last night. Where Woodlawn's offense is their strongest, is Rison's weak spot...and Rison's strongest O is Woodlawn's strongest D. Truly good teams find a way to win, it's going to be a good game regardless of who wins.

[searkhogfan]

I think we match up well with Rison.

Hope you get healthy seark, any injuries this time of the year can cause you to be off your A game.......

[catbearfan1]

Did you mean Woodlawn having a chance to beat Rison? Because you said Bearden.. And I'm not talking about Bearden's all purpose yards against Rison. I'm only eluding to Jamonds yardage. I didn't clarify that in my previous post.

[catbearfan1]

And my "what if" has still went unanswered. What if Woodlawn beats Rison and Bearden wins out? How does that affect the 2 through 4 spots?

Bleu should be the one to answer this but I'll try. That would put them all at  2 Loss record. Woodlawn would still be 4th seed, then Bearden 3, then Rison 2. Don't think enough points would be scored to change that, maybe bleu will see this and explain better..........

Points are working against Woodlawn as cuz noted.

If they end up all at 5-2:
   
Rison
WINS: Bearden (49-36),          13
          Hermitage (57-20),       13
          Parkers Chapel (40-0),   13
          Strong (46-0),              13
          Hampton (42-0)            13
                                           65 (assumes loss to Woodlawn)


      
Bearden
WINS: Woodlawn (22-8),          13
          Parkers Chapel (44-20),  13
          Strong (42-24),              13
          Hampton (42-13)            13
          Hermitage (?-?)              ??
                                              52 + ? (Maximum of 65)



Woodlawn
WINS: Hermitage (20-14),         6
          Parkers Chapel (34-26),   8
          Strong (42-24),             13
          Hampton (30-7)            13 
          Rison (?-?)                   ??
                                            40 + ? (Maximum of 53)

If Woodlawn beats Rison by enough to get the full 13 points (and gets to 53), Woodlawn would still have low point total and be first out if Bearden wins by more than 1.  Bearden would then lose head-to-head with Rison.

If Bearden wins by one and Woodlawn wins by enough to get the full 13 points, they will both have 53 and Woodlawn loses the head-to-head with Bearden and Woodlawn is first out.  Bearden would then lose head-to-head with Rison.
