Should be a good game in Lenoir. And barring any upsets should be for the conference championship.

Very interested in seeing this Watauga offense against Panther D. I think the brakes are applied to this high scoring Pioneer team. Hibriten 35-16

Watauga will test the Hibriten defense. I don't see Watauga stopping Hibriten much though.

I wouldn't be surprised to see Watauga put quite a few points on the scoreboard even with the very good defense Hibriten has. Watauga is not going stop Hibriten's offense. A Hibriten wins means much more to them for playoff purposes. An unblemished record would give them a shot at home field thru round four, but more than likely three rounds. It also brings on a couple low seeds. Regardless they will be seeded based on ten games.

Burns, Tuscola, and Hibriten all small 3A. If all plays out the 3A west bracket should be loaded.

Should be interesting. HHS is a great team. Well coached and very talented. Watauga's defense really isn't that great. I think the team that plays their way wins. If HHS plays great defense and controls the line of scrimmage, they take it. If Watauga ends up turning it into a shootout, they could very well win this thing.

If Watauga played JUST good enough D then the offense should take care of business. Hibriten by 2 scores but this'll be first REAL test. Espacially on defense.

If Hibriten is anything better than AC Reynolds then shouldn't be a problem.

Based on this season so far, Id say Hibriten is the team to beat out of the west. I have been waiting for the WHS game to get some sort of gauge on how good Hibriten is. They will be formidable for anyone in the playoffs. If Burns travels to Tuscola in the 2nd round, I wouldnt mind that a bit, I like the stadium and would love a mountain team even more.

Still very low numbers for a 3a squad. That could come back to bite them come playoff time.

True, but at the same time, HHS has had a running clock in its previous 3 games.....the starters are not getting a lot of minutes.

If I don't go to a great revival in Thomasville, I'll be at this game. Hibritens numbers are low cause student body is low. Prob a small 2A next year. West Caldwell has 3a numbers and play 2a but that will change.

Freedom don't suck, they just for some reason layed down and said poo on it. That's my guess
So are you saying that Watauga had absolutely no say so in the outcome of the game? The boys from Boone won simply because Freedom gave up?

Doss, our buddy from Burns intercepted this...lol,

Watauga plays with more heart than most teams in this state.
They are very well coached and hard to prepare for.
Watauga brought a game plan to Freedom, executed, and
kicked our cans!

Well if you must know, it musta been a combo of both. A team like Watauga(well this years Watauga anyway) doesn't whoop up on an athletic team like Freedom unless there's a little 'give up' involved. I mean, I dunno man there may not have been an those kids fought hard all the way through. I wasn't there.

I may not be at the Hibriten game either since there's a voice of hope revival going on in Thomasville. I hope a lot show up for that. But if I am there I'm just hoping for a good game and hope to see some underdog perhaps game plan and take down a monster giant. I like both teams so I'm not bias on this one. Will be a barn burner that's for sure

It must notta been the Freedom team that played TC Toberson that showed up on the field with Watauga.

Now you know back in your days and my days Freedom takes Watauga to the woodshed. Even with Morlu as their RB, they still struggled.

The best way to tell you from GA is to get on Watermill Rd and go toward Oak
Hill... don't stop till you get to Oak Hill football field. my DNA is all over it!
