SHS Lion.....I now deem you "Cherry Blossom". If you want to know who that is...watch the fantastic Eastbound and Down Show. Little Stevie gets recruited and placed as a geisha lady/server.
You are correct though...the only HS football program who can claim dominance over SP is Shelby. You should be proud of that. But, you would've gotten beaten by 14 this year, 42 last year and probably by 17-21 two years ago. That is the absolute truth. It's a shame we haven't been able to even these numbers out more the last 25 years. I guess we can add Shelby to the list now: EG, SC, Lincolnton, Shelby. I sense a trend.
All y'all play in "Run from SP Conference"
The last two meetings we had with you guys, we won. SP has the overall but we definitely didn't run. I think you will agree that if we had 2 more Non-Conf. games, SP would be on it. Historically, we played you guys pretty consistently. Our only Championship had us facing the Red Bone twice in what was two lopsided victories for both of us.

?? I don't claim to know anything. I see what I see & talk about it. I dislike Crest. I will pull for Burns over Crest most anytime truth be known. What has happened on the field, though, despite my many objections of how teams are now formed and allowed - is undeniable.
I think Burns was semi-cheated in the Shelby game. What was it....2 bogus flags got them back into it? Then yall playing so many 2 ways caught up with you. Shelby isn't built like a 3a or 4a team so that's a HUGE disadvantage for all others playing them. With that said...I understand why you all have to have so many go 2 ways given your admin numbers and surrounding recruiters.
Now you had to go git all serious.

I was at both those games.

I could be wrong but I believe Burns and SP go all the way back to the first year we were a school but I think they were Belmont then. Long history no doubt.
Went from Belmont HS to SP in 1969. My old man was in the last graduating class that was Belmont HS. He takes crap about pulling for Cramer now and he just says I never went to SP😂😂.
