I hope it’s a “free for all” shoot out like the Maiden-Bandys game was Friday night. I ain’t had that much fun at a game since Farley and Surratt went stoopid at Lincolnton. Balls were flying everdamwhere…can’t wait to see the passing yards for each team.

In my opinion…that’s the only way Maiden hangs with ‘em Mustangs!

Swing for the fences! Baby!

Brewer Devils! 😂

Can hickory find a way to lose on a bye 🤔 are they realizing this season doesn't have any hardware in their future. Is this how glass ends his run at hickory... These are the questions we are trying to find the answers too 😂

Mr.Pope, HHS has lost 3 games to teams that are a combined 25-2 on the season. Every game could have gone either way had HHS not made mistakes. Take your shots now, as the biggest " LITTLE" football town is hoping to get to .500 on the season. Give me every reason you want, but they are all excuses. Your Devils are not only LITTLE, but short on talent. Great comeback on that mighty Trojan team . LMAO !!

A Maiden fan is the last person that should be speaking on winning or hardware, it’s hard to respond to a Maiden fan, y'all so terrible 🤣🤣🤣🤣 the biggest little football town in the world, that is ridiculous quote, sitting at (4-4) and speaking on Hickory, you do realize that was the first time we loss to games straight in 4 years? You do know Glass just won the state title in 2023, and back-to-back regional appearances, our talent is elite, and we are definitely seeing it in our future.

Again, I wouldn’t say this season doesn’t have any hardware potential this year in our future, I still believe in this team, don’t be trying to figure out questions about Hickory Football, we are fine. You need to be figuring out why Maiden is bad this year and haven't won a state title since 1978 👀 I get Bandys has a history of winning games they are not supposed to win and have a chance in winning, that's why we play the game, but why use that example at the expense of Hickory???? It's some real Hickory Hate I see 👀 we are the big fish especially in Catawba County, Maiden is hoping to get to .500 record bro. Coach Glass run at Hickory??? The Audacity, the nerve, Coach Glass Era is still in effect and doing way better then Coach Byrne.

Maiden defense locked Jaxon Dollar down last season before he was thrown out of the game, let's see "The Biggest Little Football Town in The World" shut down Jaxon Dollar Friday, because if you did it before you can do it again, all season you said y'all were the underdogs and make excuses for losses instead of just realizing y'all are not good, it's the truth.

Still living on that title 3 years ago ? Getting a taste of what other teams deal with when they lose game ?? 😂. Is there a nerve being touched here ?? Wait till those new district lines are drawn and hickory city schools are dismanted and Catawba county comes in and starts controlling y'all 😂 . 1978, 1978 1978. U keep bringing that up like we are the ones on here crowing about titles. That's Shelby and Reidsville that get on here and have measuring contest on titles

Fairly easy picks this week, only toss up would be North Lincoln

West Iredell- no funny comments, QB or no, they got this. May be competitive game starting next year or year after
Bunker Hill- ehhh emmmm, well I going with em I dunno. Law says they win, they win. Agee has a good game it could be a 3 point thriller for NL
Newton Conover- ......an upset potential game for Foard, I wouldn't sleep on em. By better reasoning says Newton but by less than 10
East Lincoln- Maidens DB and Safety not eating much at the dinner table. Got the mind on the money and money on the mind....get it??

Stuart Cramer- what was I thinking last game, Figured Lincolnton could hang since they kept Shelby in check. SC cruises but Cherryville aint no pushover overall

HIbriten-punter stays home, just girl friends and parents in the stands and Cedar Rock parties going on early- they aint getting out there in the cold for a running clock before half lol

Living on two titles 96 and 23, both 16-0 teams, Maiden knows nothing about that :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO: this is not about Shelby & Reidsville, stop trying to bring other schools up and focus on your terrible blue devils.

How about Hickory & Maiden do a contest on titles?? :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: no Maiden fan can hit a nerve trust me, keep being underdogs and losing, we don't even think about Maiden, it's never a game circled on our schedule trust me, again we run Catawba County, it's proven on many levels. Again, you made a comment about Hickory and I responded, I was addressing my other Maiden buddy being sarcastic, but I hit a nerve it looks like when it came to you :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO: I would have addressed you directly if I had something to say you 😎 but I'm not responding to you no more it's no need, good luck Friday and going forward #TornadoPride 🌪️

Reidsville and I presume Shelby "don't have a dog in this fight" or a Ram or Lion. I am, however, enjoying this.

Good point on more titles, one word says it all -- Shelby

Dont think your neighbor Crest is too too far behind or far ahead, I really dont know they're overall title count. Wasn't it 1994 2 county teams took home crowns or was it 3 teams?


So in other news and questions- Hibriten still looking for a challenge, who will be the team that may take them to the wire after 1st round?
How long we talking for West Iredell QB to get back in the mix?
Watauga football will be back next year, strong JV's and not losing much or anything on Varsity, will Hickory or Hibriten possibly pick them or Freedom up on schedule next few years?
