Scotland. At. Panther Creek

Scotland finishes there all over the state non conference travels at Panther Creek next Frkday night, I did see PC at the scrimmage in Raleigh, 4 quarter non clock stoppage. I don't think they ran the ball one time.What can be expected in this one from PC Raleigh folks. Scotland offense much more diverse this past week. Ready for another trip Scots.

Cleveland County Picks Wk 6

Shelby @ KM: Mountaineers get exposed this week. 34-14 Shelby

Crest @ RS: The newly appointed Fat boy's team flattens the Hilltoppers. 45-7 Chargers

Burns @ East Burke: Despite what some may think, this will be a tightly contested game. Sleep if you want, Bulldog posters. I'm going w/ the Dawgs 28-24. However, I wouldn't be surprised if the Cavs pull of the so called upset at home.

Freedom vs Fred T Foard

Isn't this how you guys start these useless threads:

1. I think it might be close.
2. I am hoping for an injury free game.
3. Good luck to both teams.
4. Hope our offense shows up.
5. We will need some lucky bounces to win.
6. Back in 1968 we beat a team that is now part of Freedom.
7. Never can tell how these games will come out. These are 16-18 year old kids.

Fred T Foard sux, always has, and Emmons might knock the Tiger Paw sticker off every defensive helmet.
Why did you even click on this useless thread you morons.

EL vs Bandys

EL should take this one pretty easily. Bandys seems to always put up a good game against EL at home and there always seems to be some questionanable calls throughout those games. Hope this one turns out to be good one and I hope the home cooking is at a minimum. Good luck to both teams here, I have always enjoyed this game.

EL 42 - Bandys 14

East Wilkes 48 - Forbush 15

East Wilkes played the best game they have played so far. From the outset they were in control of this game. They cut out turnovers and played physical football. The defense was once again flying all over the field.

The score could have been much worse. The official on Forbush's sideline took it easy on two calls. I know this because I heard him. With the score 48 - 6 Forbush had the ball on 3rd and 5 from the 6. They had an offensive lineman lift out of his stance after being set. The official held his flag and Forbush scored. The official admitted that in a close game that is a penalty, but he would not call it in a blowout.

Then a freshman for East in mop up time had a great run. He reversed field and out ran everyone for a touchdown. This same official threw a flag for holding. He was asked by Forbush's coach, did you help me out on that one and the official said yes. This one bothered me because that freshman made a great play and deserved to know he had put the ball in the endzone. On the same drive East took several knees inside the 10 to not run the score up any more than it was.

I learned tonight that East should be in every game. The tough part of the schedule is at the end of the season. Starmount, WC and Ashe will all be tough games. West is playing much better and could pose an issue. East should handle North, Alleghany and Elkin, however in today's high school football teams cannot afford to overlook anyone.

I am still concerned with East being unwilling to punt, but last night that offensive line just dominated the game.

Question for Crest Fans

Guys I'm a Scotland County guy and I was wondering how Ty McLaurin is doing? He was a very good player for us for 2 years and really hated to see him move. I believe he is #10 but I'm not positive. If there is any feedback you guys could give I would appreciate. I really thought he had the potential to be a mid-level d1 corner if he continued to develop.

Thanks in advance
