Round 2: (24) West Stanly (2-9) at (8) Burns (6-4)

[notanyonesfan1]

(2-9) West Stanley coming off an upset of (6-5) Lexington 24-22 in Round 1 will head to (6-4) Burns High School to take on the Dawgs in Lawndale at The Dog Lot, in Round 2....



Any thoughts? Players to watch? Predictions?

Let's get this talk going about this game!

Go Dawgs!

Burns will obviously be the favorites at home, but you can't afford to take anybody lightly, especially the deeper you get in the playoffs. As West Stanley just proved going and upsetting Lexington! And I'm.sure West Stanley is gonna come to play spoiler at Burns too!

If Max Davis and company get going early, and Burns gets their defense playing well, Burns will run away with this game IMO. But if West Stanly can get a few early successful drives going and get the game to the 4th quarter it could be a good one.

I'll go Burns 46 - West Stanly 18 for now.

A 2-9 team ain't, can't and won't do that 2 weeks in a row otherwise they wouldn't be 2-9. The Dawgs will see round 3.

Agreed. One would think Burns would roll into Brevard. But, you never know.

 

[Burns85Bulldogs]

Anybody got anything on this one yet?

I have more faith in your running game than I do the Panthers. Also your QB is bigger

Just FYI for anybody coming, the game starts at 7 instead of 730 tomorrow.

How healthy is Burns coming into this week?

How healthy is Burns coming into this week?

As far as I know we should be relatively healthy with having the bye last week.

 

[Burns85Bulldogs]

This will be me sitting at home tonight enjoying the KTC broadcast...... Lets go DAWGS!!!!!!

 

[Burns85Bulldogs]

And this will also be me by halftime.....

 

[ShinyTurd]

Max Davis will be enough here...just get out unscathed and give Brevard your best shot

 

[GCS_SuperFan]

I have West Stanly by two scores!

 

[Lincolnton]

He looks a lot like George…That was Coach Harris’ (Long time Coach, here) dog. Not sure how a Bulldog tied in with the Wolves, but you could see him on the sidelines during games. Everybody around here knew who he was.

When George died (Of old age) the front page of the local newspapers sports section, in large bold letters read, “George Is Dead” sounded British, like the passing of a king.

 

[Burns85Bulldogs]

I have West Stanly losing by at least by two scores!

Fixed for ya bud.

 

[GCS_SuperFan]

Fixed for ya bud.

I have watched a lot of tape on this West Stanly team. I think that they have some toughness that Burns hasn't seen yet this year. (Except for teams from Gaston County)

 

[notanyonesfan1]

It's 50 mins til kickoff and West Stanly isn't even here .

 

[notanyonesfan1]

It's no wonder West Stanly is 2-9. They don't show up . 45 minutes and counting this is crazy

 

[beamer24]

Probably stuck in traffic

 

[notanyonesfan1]

Probably stuck in traffic

Dude these boys literally just showed up with 38 mins til kickoff WITH A STANLY COUNTY POLICE ESCORT. SIRENS, LIGHTS AND ALL . Show up in style I guess

 

[BurnsBulldog02]

West Stanley got stuck in some pretty bad traffic. The game will move up some to give them time to warm up.

Things happen, I get it. But you have to know that's a possibility coming through Charlotte and plan accordingly.

Not sure if he'll play. He's dressed but not starting

 

[notanyonesfan1]

Let's go to Brevard

 

[Lincolnton]

Congratulations to Burns on their win...The heat gets turned up, next week at Brevard. All the best to the Bulldogs.

 

[Shelby Lion]

Yeah... But our boys have to learn to stop running their mouths and giving away those 15 yard free trips up the field... Believe there were 4,maybe 5 of them including a late hit out if bounds that almost started a brawl.....
