Regular season is over. It’s playoff time now! MIC travels to Swain in the first round. Thoughts?

Marcus Graham is the x-factor. Ain't nothing like having a 4.4 guy at QB. Fyi Elijah Burris is 5'9 215lbs RB runs a 4.5 laser speed. Nobody wants to tackle this kid period, a linebackers nightmare. Dream killers/Soul takers
Hate that for Graham but he has a lot to look forward to. His freshman and sophomore year at East you could tell how special he would be.Marcus Graham is out for the season with a torn ACL. Commit to a Stanford. Elijah is a commit to UNC. They have 3 other kids who have D1 offers too. So, say what you will about them not being a “real” team but I think the SMC is down this year...we will find out soon enough though!
No we won't, MICS isnt playing Murphy or Robbinsville, they're playing the 3rd place team in the league that lost by 42 to the conference champions. MICS should just be thankful they're playing a down Swain team and not a vintage Swain squad.but I think the SMC is down this year...we will find out soon enough though!
Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't MIC 0-2 vs SMC? Murphy and Robbinsville? Sounding really confident for a team 0-2 vs SMCI can feel the fear from the SMC. The MICS raptors roll into town, with the #1RB in the state. Also #1 rated RB class of 2020 via 24/7 sports ranking. MICS has done a great job of giving out donuts. To teams who run Mickey mouse style offense's. So don't be surprised when I'm handing out Krispy Kremes donuts to SMC faithful. It's on like Donkey Kong .
Gotcha. My mistake. No disrespect to Andrews, but Swain at Swain is a different animal.Well they did run the score up on Andrews in 2016 and then acted like they won the Super Bowl.
They definitely should not kick to MICS under any circumstances. Swain will do what they do on offense, they'll 3 yard them to death and limit MICS possessionsThree yards and a cloud of dust, keep the chains moving, and eat the clock on offense; keep everything in front of them, force mics to go on long drives, and try to force some turnovers on defense; and kick the ball out of bounds on special teams.
Swain does this they should win.

You can limit MICS possessions all you want, but MICS is about Burris, and all Burris needs to do is get to the 2nd level a few times, and he's probably got 3 TDs. Against TJ when Burris got to the 2nd level he was going for a TD almost every time, no one could catch him...I don't know if Swain has more speed back there than TJ, but if they don't, then all I can say is Swain better hope Burris doesn't even sniff the 2nd level during the game.They definitely should not kick to MICS under any circumstances.

When Murphy played Swain Im pretty sure they scored within 3 plays every time they scored. My point being Swain will wear down MICS defense because MICS will score quickly on offense and Swain will have long, time consuming drives on offense. MICS defense will be on the field most of the night.You can limit MICS possessions all you want, but MICS is about Burris, and all Burris needs to do is get to the 2nd level a few times, and he's probably got 3 TDs.

Yes maybe, but I don't see Swain being able to score enough/ quickly enough to keep up with MICSWhen Murphy played Swain Im pretty sure they scored within 3 plays every time they scored.

He may have some long runs, but IMO he won’t have enough of them. Swain will drive it down MICS throat and keep the clock running. MICS might need to score literally every time they get the ball (if they can’t control the LOS on defense). That’s hard to do, especially on the road against a proud, tradition rich program like Swain that is used to winning. Swain has already seen at least four better teams than MICS (Murphy, Robbinsville, Tuscola, Smoky Mountain, and maybe Cherokee). So it’s not like they will be intimidated.
Look man, you can throw out all the stats you want. But the cold hard truth is that MICS hasn’t played anyone. They never do. The only decent teams they play against, they lose to. Playing against the SMC is a totally different animal. Especially Murphy, Swain, and Robbinsville. The SMC has sent MANY teams just like mics packing over the years. We will just have to wait and see. Just know that even if mics gets by Swain, they would have had nothing for Murphy or Robbinsville this year. That’s a fact.
Ok lets talk about the present: Murphy beats any SPC team this year, most of them by mercy rule.I think it’s so funny how most SMC people on this forum always bring up the past. All we can do is talk about your team in 2018.
None taken. It’s all goodGotcha. My mistake. No disrespect to Andrews, but Swain at Swain is a different animal.
Really?? We can talk about any year you want bud, and the SMC is still better than Mics or anyone else in that weak conference! As far as talk of the past, in the SMC the past is the present and the present is the past. It never changes. SMC has and will continue sending weak teams like mics and tj home early.
Well coming from you, I’ll take that as good news. I’m glad to see that you have Mitchell in the 1a west bracket! Makes me feel MUCH better!
Btw, how did mics do last year against that bunch of slow hillbillies from Robbinsville???? Lol
We know MIC is scared !! They remember what Robbinsville did to them last year !!I’ve seen tape on Robbinsville - they are equally as slow. It’s almost unbearable to watch..don’t know how you guys enjoy watching the boring mess of a game you have up there in the mountains! At any rate - I got Mitchell in the 1A west bracket.
But since charter schools cover multiple counties and can recruit they probably will start winning....

Does this look like a school that recruits?

That 12-3 year though was a great run. 3 losses were to state champion Davidson Day with Will Grier at QB and North Meck, a 4A School..then to Robbinsville in western final...
