MAC picks week 5

[BD Warrior]

Hard to believe that we are half way through the season. Even harder to believe that Asheville and Erwin are sitting at 1-3 and ACR could be right there with them. All 3 of these teams have played a tough schedule but it is not looking good for the big 3 right now.

Here are this weeks games. Let's here your picks.

Reynolds at Hendersonville
Enka at Brevard
Mitchell at North Buncombe
McDowell at Owen
Roberson at Crest
Erwin at Franklin

My picks...

Reynolds 42 Hendo 21...Reynolds survived a close one last week but should be ok this week against the Bearcats. Hendo is a decent team but they have not played anyone worth a crap either till now.

Brevard 21 Enka 14...Enka picked up a much needed W vs a bad team this week. I think Brevard is improved enough that it wont happen again this week.

Mitchell 35 NB 21...Mitchell is undefeated but has yet to step on the field with a good team yet. That wont happen this week either.

Owen 28 McDowell 24...Neither team is very good this season but I think the Warhorses will pull out a close one late at home.

Crest 35 Roberson 14...Roberson is the feel good story in the MAC right now. I was impressed they beat Freedom on the road after playing a complete cupcake schedule so far. This week is a whole different story. Crest may down a little but they should roll Friday night.

Erwin 49 Franklin 42...I am being optimistic here because right now is not a good time for my Warriors and the tough opponents just keep coming. Erwin can score on anyone pretty easily but their defense couldn't stop a middle school team right now. I just don't get it. Going to the pit is not a place to lick your wounds. Hopefully they will just get in a shoot out with the Panthers...

There is high school football going on right now?

I don't know if there will be 100 points scored in that Franklin Erwin game. Franklin does what Asheville used to do, run run run and chew clock.

Franklin 35

Erwin will score if they get the ball in their hands. I don't think Franklin can stop them. The problem is our defense could not stop Franklin Middle right now. Erwin just has to get in a shoot out every game if they don't fix it.

 

[AhsCougar1]

Franklins game plan will be like ashevilles old philosophy. "You can't score if you don't have the ball".
Franklin will try to have 12 drives that last 6-7 minutes, and with that runningback they could do it. They ran all over us in the first half, that rb is perfect for what Franklin wants to do, runs hard and is hard to bring down.

2-3 drives that last 6-7 mins*

That will be there game plan no doubt. We can spot them some td's because we should score most times we have the ball. The key to this game is Erwin getting a few stops on defense. I hope they wake up this week, but I don't know really

should be an interesting game for sure. i can see it going either way. but im betting its going to be high scoring . good luck to both teams

 

[BD Warrior]

Erwin defense finally showed up last night. The score 42-15 before Erwin went in to prevent mode and gave up some points late but overall I'm happy with the way the d played. Congrats to Damien Ferguson for another huge performance with 7 td passes. CJ Thompson broke the wnc record with 6 td catches as well. Isaiah Poore also did great. Now it's time for Reynolds. It just never let's up...Bring on Enka please..lol

acr and erwin should be a great game im going to think before i make my prediction.
