Burns at Hibriten

Good game Burns faithful! That defensive line you have kicked our rear end! I hope you all have no major injuries going into next week. It appears like you will have a battle on your hands again next week!! Hibriten will be 3a next year so it looks like the last game we will see each other for a while. I hope our coaching staff can get our offensive line bigger and stronger for 3a. Again, good luck next week Burns
Thanks man! Much respect your way! Good luck in 3A! We may see you up there again one day.
For Burns defense to hold Hibriten to 6 points (other score was defensive)... I never would have guessed that
Congrats to Burns, your defense is great and your offense outperformed Hibriten's tonight. Excellent game plan from your coaches. Best of luck in the state playoffs. I plan to keep up with your team.
Would love to see a non-conference series between Burns & Hibriten... Could be an outstanding rivalry
Always hard to play at Hibriten, congrats to my buddy Dave on big win.
Next week be another big game, go Dogs
Next week be another big game, go Dogs
Awesome game! We got outplayed. Extra points make a difference!
DE #18 was a disruptive force for Burns all game.... Heck of a ball player
I would. Burns defense been its best team all year.
Small man, biggest heart in the stadium!!
Shelby starts a non conf. Series this fall with Hibriten
I love the idea of playing Shelby or Burns in regular season! It would be a non conference game so it wouldn't kill playoff chances!!
Way to go Bulldogs. Offense won last week. Defense won this week.
Current Hibriten schedule has them @ Shelby September 10th this coming fall. The new conference they plan to be in will be much more competitive for Hibriten and this match up will add to their non conference schedule. They also added Hunter Huss next fall too.
I think Hibritens conference schedule hurt them in this game. They didnt have the chance to be challenged in any non conference games, and I would be this was the first game their starters played in the second half. Also probably the first time they got hit back. Not their fault with the way things were this year. It just didnt do any favors, while Burns got tested probably 5 of 7 games.
And that was one of my biggest concerns going into the game.... And as I told a lot of people last night after the game the pressure of being in close games helped Burns while our players and coaching staff struggled in that environment
I haven’t seen or heard a schedule for fall yet but that has been one of my biggest complaints the last several years was the non-conference scheduling for Hibriten so I would be very pleased that they have went out and tried to improve on that situation
I was hoping to add them next year but from what I hear that won’t be happening.
This is exactly why I detest this new conference us and Shelby are going into next season.
Agreed. Luckily we will at least have Kings Mountain and Crest on the schedule. Just need to add a few more tough contests.
Yeah good game and much respect to Burns! Yall have a tough team! But Hibriten most definitely need to be searching for an Offense coordinator! This guy has not put together a solid offense in the 12yrs they been winning! Misplaced talent everywhere! But big up to Burns!
Offensive coordinator is terrible at Hibriten! He doesn't have a clue!!! Major talent sitting on the side line and he has no clue how to develop them and put them In position! Those running backs we was just natural athletes, but look at them he still didn't develop them either to play on the next level! Time for change their,or get rid of whole staff all together
Lol. This guy sounds very disgruntled.
Appreciate the kids and the coaches at Hibriten I enjoy getting to watch some competitive ball teams. When I was a kid Hibriten lost 27 straight. Strength of Schedule will be much better next year and we'll get to watch more than 1 good ball game.
I know that feeling. Burns won a total of 8 games the 3 years I was there......and 5 came in one season!
Your post confused me with your name I figured you a burns fan
You want to can the OC and/or the entire coaching staff ? How would
Historically, they don’t tend to schedule a “challenging” non conf slate (outside the one year Butler came to Lenoir when they were the top dog in Charlotte).
I definitely understand the point you’re trying to make and it’s got some merit, but our schedule has been garbage for 5,10,15 years now. They’ve won a state title, made numerous deep runs in the playoffs, and been bounced early. It’s a mixed bag.
Some years it’s just not meant to be.

2 weeks ago Burns was complaining about there OC after the Crest game. Shelby has been complaining about their DC all year. It is what it is. There's something to be said for a consistent coaching staff that wins more than they lose. Most teams don't have that.
All that complaining by Shelby about their DC finally paid off, heard they went back to the 4-3 last night after being in a 3-4 all year.
Much respect! And your right! Just not meant but with all that talent sitting on the side line going unplayed is hilarious! Hibriten should of been in the spread 10yrs ago! That's a powerhouse program with athletes everywhere! But good season, hopefully we learning from all this!
I do think there is talent sitting that should be playing. I really question some of the play calling on offense Friday night, but we really got outplayed by a team that was better prepared for a challenging game. I agree that our schedule has hurt us due to the lack of getting hit back, a lack of defensive opposition that challenged us to score and simply playing hard for 4 quarters. I believe that a more difficult schedule coming up will better prepare our team for the playoffs.
