This should be an intriguing matchup of former Big East conference foes. Northeastern has yet to play this year and their first game is against a Rocky Mount team who shut out Tarboro last week. I'm interested to see if what I saw from NE this summer translates to "real" ball. They have speed everywhere but can they handle Rocky Mount up front? Is this game on the NFHS Network? Should be a good one!
 
I think northeastern takes it. We(tarboro) are down this year by our standards. Six seniors, and 25 players total. 7 are sophomores, and we were still in a position to win that game. I expect the eagles to take care of business
 
Eagles 🦅 should be up 3 tds easily. First game jitters. Look for NE to run away with this in the 2nd half. Freshwater and Fletcher in the backfield

Goober comes out of hiding. He had to see if the eagles had anything this year. Good to see you back on the boards.


Best team in the state again this year goober? Some might have something to say about this statement. Hope you and the family health is doing well.

Yes we’re doing well, thanks for asking though. We are COVID free.

How them eagles. Seen the small left handed QB slinging it around. Heard a transfer RB? Seen freshwater at a few camps, looks to be in shape and form

Freshwater and Fletcher are playing running back tonight. I haven’t seen the transfer yet. Our qb play will definitely have to improve. The kid is small and has made quite a few mistakes. NE should be winning big.

I don’t like Freshwater running the ball. I’m scared he’s going to get injured

My same thought when you mentioned that above. But I bet hes a load to bring down. My boys senior year, vs Richlands and Mario Williams, they lined him at rb all game. Said it was like hitting a tree full blast. Freshwater wont hold up all year toting the rock, hes to important on defense, in my opinion

I agree with everything you just posted. Hopefully we don’t keep him back there. He’s to important for us

My thoughts

On a grade scale of 1-10 I give us a solid 6

Defense was good as usual

Offense just needs some time with some new faces and players playing in different roles on offense

Our qb is small in size but I think he’s going to be good

Freshwater and Fletcher haven’t missed a beat, Lister impressed

Jordan Jones was my player of the game, he worked hard in the off season and it showed tonight.

Our kicking game is embarrassing 😳
We have to be the worst in Nc. No reason imo that we shouldn’t have a suitable kicker.

Loved the way Coach Moore changed things up tonight.

Crowd was really good tonight for an opening game here in Elizabeth City

Our PA announcer is the best!!!

Our sound system sucks, love to hear those crackling blown speakers. Enough is enough, replace them or just disconnect them. We have to good a program to have such a shitty sound system. Those bad speakers just ruin the players entrance and the halftime jams.
