AC Reynolds vs New Hanover State Championship

[GG4BAMA]

ACR is leaving tomorrow morning.

This is Reynolds 5th appearance in a State Championship game and we have never scored more than 14 points, despite that we are 3-1. Offense wins games, defensive wins championships and we should have the best defense New Hanover will have seen. Despite that we will have to score more than 14 points to win this game. Fortunately I think this may be our best offense to reach the title game. A big factor in this game will be the atmosphere, it is really different playing in a HUGE college stadium compared to a high school stadium. I know it sounds silly but it makes a difference, our coaching staff has been there and knows how to prepare for that atmosphere. The weather will be big too, especially if it is windy passing may be more difficult. I think one of 2 things happens, either Reynolds does have the best defense New Hanover has seen and wins 21-14, or Wiz Vaughn is just too much and New Hanover blows us away. In the last 33 years we have been blown away very seldomly in the playoffs so I go with Reynolds beating a very good New Hanover team 21-14. You know what they say, never pick against your team. Everyone be safe. Go Big Green!!!!

Hoggard held NH to 7 points, they had a pretty good defense.

I'm no expert on eastern North Carolina football, but every highlight I see of new Hanover, it looks like they are playing the worst teams in the country. Do any players from new Hanover have big time offers? That qb last week from sun valley was probably the best qb I've ever seen. Will be interesting to see how this kid plays

You might want to watch ACR on film with their opp as well. You would see pretty much the same thing.

Oh well that's an interesting statistic. Yea our conference (the one Reynolds played in) was terrible this year.
But let us not forget, Asheville leads the all time series against Reynolds. (Sorry had to say it)

Reynolds is leaving Asheville at 11.30 in the morning.

 

[GOBIGGREEN2005]

Sorry New Hanover fans, I should have mentioned this sooner. If you go to gobiggreen.net there is a ton of info and stats on Reynolds. It is a great site. It has the same name as me but I am not affiliated with it. That honor belongs to the Tweeds who work very hard on it and do a great job.

That might be as tricky as leaving today at 11:30

[bigbear'10]

GOOD LUCK ROCKETS!! BRING IT BACK TO THE MOUNTAINS!! I'll be watching on tv.

 

[Jerald119]

That was a TD bad call by the refs.

 

[bamatide13]

Boy that was a horrible call. Reynolds just got jobbed out of 7. Clearly both feet in by about 2 feet.

 

[bigbear'10]

Rockets got robbed on that TD. That was a catch!! Even the tv announcers said they missed the call

 

[ehswarriors02]

Horrible had both feet in. What was the back judge even looking at?

 

[BiltmoreCANE]

7-0 NH after an int in Rocket territory on the 20. 4:29 2Q.

 

[BiltmoreCANE]

Great answer drive by Reynolds 7-7, 1:12 2Q.

 

[GG4BAMA]

Had both feet in and they talked about it for 5 minutes. Still screwed it up.

 

[Chargers#1]

Hopefully that doesn't cost ACR. Should be 14 - 7

 

[Shelby Lion]

What a travesty on that call..That was a TD...... Good ball game..... GO AC

 

[TigerDen1]

Good luck Rockets. This Tiger is pulling for you guys. My grandson in youth league played against St Onge, Flynn, Hembree. Great group of athletes. Also good luck to Ari Williams love that kid.

 

[BiltmoreCANE]

Reynolds drives deep into NH territory but settles for the FG, 10-7 Rockets 3Q.

 

[AhsCougar1]

That first drive of the second half was a perfect example of what you expect from Reynolds coaching staff.

 

[BiltmoreCANE]

And just like that....1st play for NH 75yd TD pass, 14-10 NH 3Q.

 

[Champ_24]

Lets go Reynolds

 

[Shelby Lion]

Ref that threw INT penalty a moment ago has a son that played for Shelby last year #40! He referees our little league games on Saturday in Cleveland County ! Good man!!!

 

[Shelby Lion]

What a play !!!’ Jump pass for lead

 

[BiltmoreCANE]

Answer drive by Reynolds 17-14 Rockets, 5:08 3Q.

 

[AhsCougar1]

Looking like its setting up to be one of those games that Reynolds pulls out. They have them right where they want them

 

[AhsCougar1]

I'd be willing to bet that missed extra point will haunt new hanover
