    Undefeated Bunker Hill @ Reidsville

    He used to be a huge Tuscola fan, hard to tell these days though.

    Dudley at Crest Round 4

    Weddington and Hough played and beat Dutch Fork (SC) earlier this year and DF just won their way into the SC 5A title game tonight. They play White Knoll on 12/1/23 for the 5A crown in a rematch of an earlier White Knoll win (17-14), so NC has teams that can match up pretty well.

    Madison vs. Reidsville

    Oh, I wasn’t disagreeing. I was pondering that as a possible solution. I don’t have a problem with the current system but it does seem like your idea might be workable.

    Madison vs. Reidsville

    That’s an idea, I suppose…🤔

    Madison vs. Reidsville

    Their not going to pass a rule like that because about half the teams don’t meet that criteria and the NCHSAA isn’t going to effectively delete a week of playoffs and the money that brings in. Likewise, going to 7 classes would lead to even MORE playoff teams needed. I admit it’s weird but...

    Madison vs. Reidsville

    Probably the pride of seeing something through to the end even if it doesn’t work out for them. I mean, high school careers are short enough as it is without just quitting when you still have time to play one more time with your teammates. Heck, half the teams in the playoff know they’re not...

    Madison vs. Reidsville

    It was “Bloody Madison” because confederate troops tortured and killed a group of people (men, women, and children) they claimed were Union sympathizers. Madison didn’t really support the Confederacy because there wasn’t a slave population in the area and many were actually pro-USA Unionists (as...

    West Henderson @ Tuscola

    I’d figure Tuscola would be more likely kicking themselves for losing to Franklin. NH is 7-2 and has had a really good season where they are probably just straight up a better team than Tuscola.

    Rabun Gap @ Robbinsville

    Just wanted to update about this Rabun Gap team: they played #1 overall ranked Providence Day at Providence Day and beat them 42-27 on the 20th. Until then PD had been ranked above Grimsley, Butler, Weddington, etc but RGN put it to them. They’re really good.

    Mountain 7 - Week 8

    I was looking for clarification because my mind doesn’t work that way. Team A is good for several years and then gets drubbed weekly for a couple of months, my mind doesn’t think they’re suddenly going to be good again next week (I tend to figure they just aren’t good this particular year). Yet...

    Mountain 7 - Week 8

    OK, that’s what I was wondering and even mentioned it. If it had been 1 or 2 posters I wouldn’t have thought twice, but based on what both teams have done this year I thought North should have been the clear choice but weren’t. Thanks for the solid reply on what I thought to be an odd...

    Mountain 7 - Week 8

    Born here 53 years ago, still here. Not sure what that has to do with thinking a down team is suddenly going to be good each week. Now, do you have anything of substance to add or was that all you had?

    Mountain 7 - Week 8

    A good solid win by North Henderson tonight but I’m still not getting why so many people keep picking Franklin to win games. They beat East (probably the worst team in WNC) and they beat Tuscola (not sure what happened there). Otherwise, the 31-10 loss tonight is their closest game. I’m not...
