Tarboro vs Hunt

[Tarboroviking18]

After a come back for the ages victory against Rocky Mount, the Vikings hit the road to take on the defending 5a Eastern champions the Hunt warriors. Hunt had quite the off-season, losing some key players to transfer. But they bring back a good bit from last year including the QB and RB. Many hunt fans and players have had this game circled for some payback against the Vikings. It'll take a great performance from the Vikings to bring home the win. But after what I saw in the second half against Rocky Mount, I think it'd be unwise to doubt this group of Vikings.

Our boys can do it! No doubt in my mind. With that said, it’ll be a TALL task. These young Vikings will have to play the best game they’ve ever played, and maybe even need a few things to go their way. Look, we know what Hunt has back from last year, and we know what we lost, so I’m sure as long as our boys play hard and give it what they have, I expect our staff to be satisfied.

They play like they did in the second half against RM I'll definitely like our chances. This group grew a lot last week and I'm sure they will this week in a big time environment on the road.

Our best defense could be to control the clock like we did against RM and keep their O off the field

Take a guess what's in the forecast for next week lol

Should be another great game. Hunt's handling Lee county pretty easily right now, it's on the Nfhs

Tarboro normally makes a big jump between week 1 and week 2. Hopefully that’s the case again this year.

I felt hunt was much better than rm last year, but rm gave us a closer game. As you mentioned, we made a good jump from week 1 to week 2. Hopefully we do that again this year

I'd have to imagine this is one that Hunt wants really bad as well. Our boys have to be prepared to take their best shot early.

Everything I've seen on social media from hunt players and fans backs up this statement. They've had this one circled since they lost to Tarboro last year.

We've been blessed. I don't say this in an arrogant way, but the reality is for most teams, we are their Superbowl, and for us they are just another game.

Watched hunt on Saturday. They are good, and on paper should probably be favored in this game. But they rely a whole lot on that QB. He is very good and can beat you by himself.

I'm sure the Hunt faithful are thrilled to have him back. Hopefully we can do what we can to keep him off the field. Again, maybe some long, successful drives.
