West better have an aerial attack to open their running game...I see East and Hickory slamming the door to the ground game shut and forcing that D1 QB prospect to prove his arm and accuracy are really D1.

TIGHTEST week in pick decisions so far. Some of these are coin flip picks ha ha. They'll be some seperation in this one at the top after this friday.



East Lincoln- on edge with this one but I....see a thriller but East comes up 6 point victors. They are more battle tested, they just are. I need to see if they got em on youtube. West done their thing against Maiden though thats only thing i'd be iffy about in this decision but I'm still close to the lead in the pick em's

Bandys- not much else to say espacially after Maiden bombed em'

Hickory- cause its Hickory, May be interesting for a half.

Newton- coin flip pick for sure..man. smh. Agee not getting what he usually does on the field i'll go with this one. The Draughn/Patton game of this conference ha ha


Lincolnton- come on out to see Big Ronda Slapella from Dingy Deer Trailer park, sing "Loving you" while her cousin Roy gets poodles to jump through fire circles while wearing a pink toto and a Ozzy shirt cause hes a big fan of Ole Greg' . Gonna be one heck of a half time show.

Hibriten- with Chase coming off a RS loss, coming into this one wont help the confidence much

Burns- coin flip decisions again, Clevland county vibs with as much hype in a game as EL/WI. 7 point differnece in this one

 

[oldburkeman]

So I watched some BH EL action on youtube. Good stuff. No really big guys but dang who in the world is that giant of a man playing at WR for East?

They put on alot of QB pressure but can they do that against West thats the million dollar question.

Jaxson Dollar #2 TE in nation.

 

[oldburkeman]

Jason Dollar #2 TE in nation.

That should give them some hope against HIckory and WI in a tight one. Wow, Never heard of that guy were have I been

Under a rock waiting on Agee updates?

 

[Kylar24]

Remember the name Isaiah Peet. Younger brother of Campell’s Exavier Peet. I’m more than certain he’ll be guarding Dollar. Isaiah is one of the most athletic, talented, underrated athletes you’ll see. I expect him to have a Dominant game. Styles makes fights. Trying to decide on this one or East Forsyth vs West Forsyth

 

[Vik-Val 86]

If I was able I go see West Iredell vs East Lincoln game out of curiosity. Due to my work situation I will have to miss it. Interesting matchup for sure.

Would like to know where you watched this game on youtube, who published it?

Sportsnut, on here, and at the most it’s only for bragging rights. Now, if you’re going to impress someone, say maybe guests at a dinner party, I might be able to help.

What you do is sprinkle a little nebula in the mix. Tell them it’s with pride you can say you are now among the TOP 10 posters in the On3 Pick’em contest. Then dress it up by saying that Cheerduck finished 3rd and Maiden Creek finished 4th from the bottom.

Wouldn’t mind you using my moniker but if you’d did, others might think you’ve been hobnobbing with those in which “penalties are part of their team identity.”

[oldburkeman]

That’s the one

 

[oldburkeman]

Under a rock waiting on Agee updates?

Nah, I figure they’ll come when they do or I’ll go hit up a game and see for myself. This seasons too far gone for them unless they pull off wins against BH Bandys Newton and Foard. Winnable but not likely.

I wonder if Jaxon dollar keys on Spence and how that would work head to head collision

You told me Spence is a punishing type of running back. Don’t think East would risk Dollar’s offensive contribution.

 

[beamer24]

Got to tackle him low. Especially if you are a skill guy.

 

[theBatMan88]

Got to tackle him low. Especially if you are a skill guy.

True that! Go high and that man of a kid will run over and/or through you. Take out the wheels...

 

[oldburkeman]

Game of interest this Friday to bare in mind

Tuscola/Franklin

Both undefeated, good one for Hibriten Maiden fans to size Tuscola up. Should Tuscola lose that could insure home field for Hibriten in November but still may have Maiden drive up the hill. This Friday will be the coolest yet with these matchups and “size ups” going on too.

I'm for more like stopping the train before it statrs moving.

 

[oldburkeman]

A beast none the less. Making the EL Hickory game a must for me. Thats if theres no big revival going on. Whats his college choices?

Theres another beast in the area at the skill set position. Other than Cheerduck have you guys seen the RB for Alexander Central? Saw him on FFN playback. I was like what in the world. I like some big boy RB's. Critical 4th and 1 or 2s they come in handy in winning or losing a game. My favorite of all time was Tyler Shatley. The "BUS" at Maiden was one to watch in the 90s. Keyonte Moore at Freedom was a hit in 1998, and that kid from Bandys that give Hibriten a fit bout 7 years ago that went on to LR.

 

[beamer24]

Dollar is committed to Georgia

Foard at Bandys: Trojans by 10

Newton-Conover at North Lincoln: Red Devils by 7

Bunker Hill with the bye

East Lincoln at West Iredell: Mustang by 6 in Flyrod’s game of the week.

Thank you my dear friend. If anybody can upset a late rounds favorite, it’s your team.
