2A Rankings 3/1

I guessed # 15 for South Point after week one against Burns. Looks like I wasn’t very far off. I’m a little surprised Burns didn’t drop a little.

Going from nowhere to #9 by beating Dixon ... :eek: If we beat Croatan might get to ....who knows

This is going to come off as petty. So be it. Ratings and rankings for the most part are opinion. And I’ve got one as well. Chris here is the part I don’t understand. South Point falls to the #3 ranked team in the state by one point and moves from unranked to # 16. Fail I’ve got no problem with that. Then SWO beats the (according to MaxPreps) # 99 team in the state and goes from unranked themselves to # 9. I just don’t get it. Not saying your wrong Chris, I just don’t get it.
 
The South Fork conference weeps!

My Catawba County neighbor, you're right, we didn't get much consideration. I just learned yesterday from reading the Lincolnton paper that Newton-Conover had us down 13-0, late into the third quarter. That kind of worries me, but I'm glad we managed to come back. I don't think the South Fork conference is as weak as some might think...Sometimes, it's more comfortable not being ranked.

Newton-Conover was ranked 13th, but after losing to us they fell out of this poll...North Lincoln was ranked eighth and beat West Lincoln 10-7. According to the radio station they have football players on their basketball team who is still in the playoffs, and they fell out of the poll, but they lost some key people from last year to graduation.

If the North Lincoln football players who are on their basketball team can play football like they can play basketball (NL 87-Shelby 56, last week in quarterfinals) they'll beat all of us, again. Last year, North beat Lincolnton 42-7, but I'm counting on that not happening.
An acquaintance who is a Knight's fan proudly told me, last season, "It's our time". Besides North, West beat us 54-14 and East beat us 10-7. I do hate being at the bottom of the barrel in Lincoln County. Maybe this year.
Congrats on the win over Bandys.:)

Hello Lincolnton! Hoping all is well for you. Big win for the Wolves....lot of sick Red Devils up my way. I must agree....that North Lincoln should win the South Fork again and the rest of us are fighting for 2nd place. Maiden has a HUGE game this week with West Lincoln followed by another HUGE game with North Lincoln. I’m not ready yet.... hope the Boom Devils are!
Good luck to your Wolves! Brother.

...absolutely loved the Janis Joplin! U sump’em else! Lincolnton!

Lincolnton, my man. Never would have figured you for a Janis Joplin fan. Scott Joplin perhaps. Or Kristofferson. Though Kris and Janis walked some of the same paths.
Keep on keeping us guessing brother. It’s what makes you unique. Go Wolves!

Dang Mr Lincolnton,
Don’t know much about football, but I do know you pick the all time greatest female singer for your music.

Reminds me of GSO-5 when he would post the Allman Brother Band music.
 
M.Creek, OC and Sportsnut, Always good to hear from you. Glad it’s football season even if it’s different.All the best to your teams.
Glad you liked Janis.She sure could sing. Hate she had to leave us so soon. 27 years old.

Chalk it up to it's just a weird season.

Been a good while since I been on. What are we to expect from North Lincoln this year? I noticed that good running back ain’t on the roster what’s the deal with that?
