J.U. Blacksher completed the 2021 season with a 4-7 record. With their 3-3 region record and a fourth place finish in Class 2A region one, the Bulldogs earned a spot in the playoffs in 2021. J.U. Blacksher's season came to an end in the first round of the playoffs when they fell to Isabella by a score of 40-6. J.U. Blacksher was inconsistent offensively last year and they need some improvement if the Bulldogs want to be competitive. They only averaged 19.1 points a game. Since 2010, J.U. Blacksher has gone a combined 50-77. Their 39.4% winning percentage ranks 41st in Class 2A over the past twelve seasons. Over the past 25 seasons, J.U. Blacksher has managed to compile a record of 103-160. Their 39.0% winning percentage ranks 45th in Class 2A and 298th in the AHSAA. The Bulldogs are led by head coach Wesley Sims who is entering his thirteenth season at the helm. He has compiled a record of 50-77 over the past twelve seasons at J.U. Blacksher. Under his direction the Bulldogs have qualified for the playoffs a total of seven times. They have won one region crown with Coach Sims. Coach Sims' overall record as a head football coach in twelve season stands at 50-77 (39.4%). The J.U. Blacksher Bulldogs will play in Class 2A region one during the 2022 season.

Shields Panthers finished with an overall record of 2-8 and in fifth place in Class 1A region three. The Panthers closed out the regular season with a loss to Red Level by a score of 49-6. J.U.
