Best of luck to the Bulldogs tonight. Not the best matchup for the Dawgs scheme wise but anything can happen if you believe and work hard.

Its doesn't cheapen it Rocketfan73...Part of the game , it happens, you live with it, correct it and move on

Bottom line at the end of the day, whomever has the highest score in this game of football wins 100% of the time, how they got to that higher
score is of no consequence at that point and time...Pretty much sums it up :) The Rockets beat the Golden Lions and when you look at why you can whoop
and holler all day about the why but it really doesnt matter

That shall conclude this advanced tutorial ha ha ha ha
Hope to see you tonight.

I would love to but I am currently out of state. A lot of great guys from that part of Cleveland County. I would love to see the Dawgs go into the 4th quarter with a shot to win.

Burns kids are fired up playing with great discipline. Coach Devine doing amazing job with this team.
Still early but you have to be happy for the underdog.

Shelby had the ball on the 2. Loss of 10 on a sack. 5 yard penalty back to the 17 yardline. 4th and goal from the 13.

Burns 14-0 over Shelby... 5 mins to go 2nd qtr

Shelby was at the 1... Hard hit on Shelby RB caused a fumble for a 2 yard loss, Burns offsides but then get a 10 yard sack... Both teams take timeouts... Shelby false start... 4th down Shelby at the 12... Shelby goes for it and throw incomplete... Burns takes over

Shelby may come out and beat us by 50 in the second half. But kudos to the coaches and players so far. They look like a totally different team than 2 weeks ago.

Burns looks good, I'm shocked... Shelby defense has been a little suspect, Burns has gotten both TDs on big chunk plays, a 44 yard pass and a 70 something yard run...

Shelby forgot their offense in the 1st quarter, got going in the 2nd, but the Burns D did a great job of bend but don't break and didn't give up anything...

Not sure what to think of this game. Is Shelby that bad or is Burns that improved. Gotta think Bess is struggling against his former teammates due to nerves. Why doesn't Shelby try to set up a run game?

Couple of thoughts:

Offensive line:; when you can not block a three man front with five players (sometimes 6 when the running back stays back to block), nor score from one yard out on a much smaller defense front speaks volumes about this offensive line issue we are having this year

Burns is dropping 8 in coverage rushing three and still getting pressure on Bess every single time: Crest and Kings Mountain the next two weeks will hurt our QB with this type blocking effort...

this could go one of two ways: we can suck it up and come out and gut out a win in the second half, or prepare ourselves for a very very long season....

either way lets show some effort out there... Burns is... :)

Burns have gotten to Bess once or twice, got a little pressure on him, but he has been off on a lot of throws...

By the way, Burns get the ball to start the 2nd half

I'm assuming you're at the game?.. What the atmosphere like?

I think I figured out how Burns is beating Shelby. Shelby Lion has been coaching the upper cleveland youth teams for a while and now those same kids are beating his alma mater. It's Shelby Lions fault.

ROFL ...... They are quite a few of them I had the chance to coach over the years.... great kids

I retired after this last season after 7 or 8 years

Im afraid Burns is running out of gas. Haven't shown any offense since Hopper went out. Just a matter of time before Shelby scores again.
