If Murphy goes big this coming year maybe we’ll find out.Trust me 50-7
I'd probably take my chances with Murphy and GentryIf Murphy goes big this coming year maybe we’ll find out.
Southside lost to Swain County in the championship game back in ‘04 16-14.
Northside got beat by Graham back in 2000 in the championship game 31-6.
Southside also played Plymouth down to the wire in ‘15 and ‘16 losing 17-12 and 7-2 respectfully.
Doubtful, maybe two.I’d say they were at least 4 teams that could’ve done it and maybe 5.
Murphy, Robbinsville, and Swain would have definitely blown Pamlico out of the water and I think Cherokee would have beaten Pamlico as well at least by a touchdown or two. Rosman and Andrews would have given them all they could have handled. I guarantee that.Doubtful, maybe two.
Yeah they did and almost beat Swain so they were no joke.They also lost to Elkin in what 2002 in the championship. Southside was pretty solid in the early 2000s.
You are correct we aren’t whaat the SMC once was! But there were 3 teams in the SMC that could have beaten pamlico in the finals.
I think the discussion on Pamlico is a bit skewed. They get judged on one game against Murphy. There are a lot of teams that Murphy made look really bad last year. I'm not in anyway saying that Murphy wasn't the better team, but Pamlico fumbling their first two possessions away and giving up 2 easy TDs was very uncharacteristic of that team and it was 21-7 at the half. You guys are trying to tell me that the whole SMC basically would have rolled Pamlico and you cite 40-50 years of SMC history, yet you dismiss entirely the season Pamlico had leading up to that championship game.I’d say they were at least 4 teams that could’ve done it and maybe 5.
I dont think I can put much trust into someone who spouts off ridiculous comments like that. I guess you picked Golden State to sweep Toronto too.Trust me 50-7
Go watch Pamilco first play on offense from the State game. Then tell me why they fumbled. They are called forced turnovers where I come from. It's not like they just dropped the ball for no reason. A great D changes the normal "characteristics" of an Offense.. in my opinion Pamilco didnt just fumble their first 2 drives and give up 2 "easy" tds. Those tds came thanks to a great D "FORCING" turnovers.I think the discussion on Pamlico is a bit skewed. They get judged on one game against Murphy.

lol. NoMurphy, Robbinsville, and Swain would have definitely blown Pamlico out of the water and I think Cherokee would have beaten Pamlico as well at least by a touchdown or two. Rosman and Andrews would have given them all they could have handled. I guarantee that.
First of all I don’t watch worthless NBA crap. Second of all i give Murphy is just due and they have a great coach but hate to break it to ya Tarboro is on a different kind of level and I would invite you to actually go see Tarboro in person I’m sure your perspective will change quicklyI dont think I can put much trust into someone who spouts off ridiculous comments like that.

Pamlico was a very good football team that was not ready for the wing t ,defensively coach Nelson had an excellent game plan , not sure we even practiced against a pass that week. Plus we were pretty talented. As far as Tarboro goes we didnt play so who knows.First of all I don’t watch worthless NBA crap.

Ease up man. I'm not I'm not saying Murphy got lucky or anything. I pointed out that they were the better team. I didn't say the defense wasn't good. I was saying it was something the Pamlico coaching staff got corrected because they were able to right the ship and go 7-7 the rest of the half. As the game wore on, the cream will rise to the top. My contention was Murphy was able to disrupt. That doesn't mean every other team in the SMC is capable of presenting that same kind of problem. This conversation for me has never been about delegitimizing Murphy's accomplishments. It was about posters using Murphy's win over Pamlico as their case for why Pamlico is a mediocre team that anyone in the SMC could whip them. If folks on here were intellectually honest with themselves, they would see the "disrespect" they feel coming in their direction (east or west) is usually caused by careless and biased statements on their part.Go watch Pamilco first play on offense from the State game.

I hear you. I just get sick of hearing "oh if so and so didnt fumble or throw those pics they would have won" well of course they would have in most cases. But defense wins championships and those turnovers are usually force . I personally believe rville would have beaten Pamilco but not Swain or anyone else.Ease up man.

Exactly. That's the way it went, and yes we have not or did not play Tarboro so no one KNOWS what would happen.Pamlico was a very good football team that was not ready for the wing t ,defensively coach Nelson had an excellent game plan , not sure we even practiced against a pass that week. Plus we were pretty talented. As far as Tarboro goes we didnt play so who knows.
wow this guy has lost his marbles!!!If we could meet in the middle at the end of the year, that would be ok. It’s not worth it to schedule a game like that though, especially with athletic budgets as tight as they are. It’s certainly not fear, and just so you guys understand I give Murphy their due. They are the best team in that conference, but as a whole the SMC isn’t the juggernaut it once was.
wow this guy has lost his marbles!!!
Plymouth?Alot of the solid 1A east teams like Wallace-Rose, Plymouth, SW Onslow, James Kenan are 2A teams now. Counting championships over east and west 1A is silly. Just because those west schools have been 1A for 40+ years is the ONLY reason yall have any 1A supremacy. I hope Yall realize Tarboro uses its first string against Pamilico in the first quarter only lol. Secondly, what do yall want Tarboro to do? Beat Murphy with there second string so it can be competitive? It really does feel like Tarboro envy. If the 5A comes into play Tarboro can go back to winning 2A championships and yall can have the precious 1A back. Lol.
Don't be mad that Tarboro is 1A. Get in the weight room, work hard, and beat them!
Plymouth (now Washington County High School) is still 1A. Enrollment is somewhere in the 300's still.Plymouth?
Call me crazy (most people do) but how can you determine which conference is tougher to date by looking at previous state champions. Just wondering1. Jones senior zero titles / enrollment 310

Titles 37 from 5 teams.
All titles were won in the smc.
Historically speaking, they are the only team with multiple state titles in 3 different numeral divisions. So I'll just smh and chuckle @ the "slightly above average" part.Nobody cares about Tarboro. Historically speaking slightly above average.
I think your right. Tarboro is very good though.I think Robbinsville, Swain, and Murphy would destroy that entire conference except Tarboro.
It’s very easy to say that Tarboro would smoke Murphy. Tarboro destroyed Pamlico and Murphy can’t make extra points in the title game. Murphy’s offense would have been on their backs the whole game. I would love to see this game let both teams meet in Greensboro and duke it out. But Tarboro wins by a landslide with their 3rd sting in 4th quarterThere is no doubt that Tarboro is the top 1a/1aa team in the state. To say they would beat Murphy 50-7 is ridiculous! Especially By saying to much speed and physicality, they may have more speed but I am sure they can match pretty well with the physical aspect! No I haven’t seen Tarboro play and I don’t need to, I know they are the #1 team! I just think basing a matchup off of stats and SOS is not the way to do it. I would like to see a Murphy/Tarboro matchup it would be closer than most could imagine!!!
Well, it would be kinda hard to have those two teams meet in Greensboro now...you know, since it’s summer time and both schools have had their graduations. Neither team would be the same now. But anyway....
Murphy dropped 60 plus on Pamlico without even having their starting RB available for the game, and could have scored 80 plus easily had they not called off the dogs. Your post has zero logic.
Lololo...This is how clueless you are. I realize.. you are the one that doesn't realize. Pamlico doesnt list a QB on any of their rosters. They run a version of the triple o. Star QB? Lol. You act like they have a 1000 yard passer. Lol. 95% of plays are running plays (handing off or QB keeper). They pass out of desperation. The kid you are thinking about played he just didn't make it past the first quarter @ 21-0. Bottom line is Murphy wouldnt be able to score on Tarboro's defense at will. I really dont think they lose to Pisah and would beat them by at least 3 TD's. Tarboro would beat Murphy and it wouldnt even be a competitive game unless the second string came in the game for Tarboro. Even then, Murphy wouldn't be a favorite to win that game. Those are the facts that anyone who hasn't seen Tarboro can't come to grips with. Murphy is a great 1A team but Tarboro could contend for "chips" in 2A. They have won titles in 3 different classifications,1A, 2A, and 3A.Rocky Mount a solid 3A contender deserves applause for putting Tarboro on their schedule. That game will be competitive.You do realize that Pamlico’s star QB didn’t play against Tarboro, right? Just thought I’d mention that. Tarboro envy? Seems to me you have it backwards. I see more people beating their chests about how badly Tarboro would beat Murphy than the other way around. There is no Tarboro envy in Murphy, I assure you. Their trophy case is stocked full of trophies just like Tarboro’s.
Lololo...This is how clueless you are. I realize.. you are the one that doesn't realize. Pamlico doesnt list a QB on any of their rosters. They run a version of the wildcat. Star QB? Lol. You act like they have a 1000 yard passer. Lol. 95% of plays are running plays (handing off). They pass out of desperation. Bottom line is Murphy wouldnt be able to score on Tarboro's defense period! Tarboro would beat Murphy and it wouldnt even be a competitive game unless the second string came in the game for Tarboro. Even then, Murphy wouldn't be a favorite to win that game. Those are the facts that anyone who hasn't seen Tarboro can't come to grips with. Murphy is a great 1A team but Tarboro could contend for "chips" in 2A. Rocky Mount a solid 3A contender deserves applause for putting Tarboro on their schedule. That game will be competitive.
You are right, I was thinking of Princeton. I'll make the edit. Thank you.Doesn't Pamlico run flexbone triple option? They did last year.
OMG ... Bud was wrong about something ... Way to go "Kid". Wonder what else he's wrong about?You are right, I was thinking of Princeton. I'll make the edit. Thank you.
Tarboro has been hanging 60/70 on "P" teams so long it's hard to remember which took the worst whooping. I can guarantee one thing I'm right about....Once Tarboro goes back to 2A yall can whine about other 1A opponents yall might ACTUALLY have a chance to beat. It's a silly debate anyway. What difference does it make if they win by 3 tds or 5? Yall are big losers against Tarboro either way. LolOMG ... Bud was wrong about something ... Way to go "Kid". Wonder what else he's wrong about?
