"The Cougars hit the road to make the short trip to Pitt County to take on the NP Panthers. This is a series that SWE has dominated, although the Cougars did lose a head scratcher to them at home last season. I don't expect such issues this year, although NP is a competent team. But I didn't expect to lose to them last year either...."

This is what I said going into the game vs North Pitt last year. We were the better team, by all accounts, but suffered another head scratching loss to them anyway. We outscored them in the final 3 quarters, but couldn't overcome a 0-12 deficit in the first. I want to say that this should be an easy win for SWE, but I said the same thing last year, and now we have a 2 game losing streak to NP. So I'lll just say that I hope both teams make it out healthy lol. I know when to be quiet.

Gotta make sure we don't drop our annual egg with North Pitt or Washington first. Especially Washington. No matter how sorry they are, they always seem to blindside us when we least expect it.

I think we just got a flag because our helmet came off and didn't stop playing.

We had a 99 yard run vs Northeastern. Ran for over 250 last week vs Eastern Wayne. And just opened with a 40 yard td run. I wonder if coach is starting to understand that this is a running school lol.

4th and 20. 3 and out. Punt returned to the NP 18, but a blindside block moves it all the way back to our own 35 smh.

NP is the more physical team. That's clear. They don't have numbers though. Their rb is big and their qb is big, and they are running up the middle every time. They have receivers spread, bit it's just to open up the inside. I feel like we have to hope they get tired, because fresh, they are knocking our blocks off. On the other hand, we're running the ball. Haven't passed much the last two games. Why we keep getting stopped in the red zone is beyond me, because we're doing great between the 20s. Only having 12 points right now is embarrassing..
