Bunker Hill (5-0, 2-0) at West Lincoln (4-1, 1-1) : After playing Maiden tough it looks like West might be too much for the Bears.
East Burke (2-3, 0-2) at Newton-Conover (2-3, 1-1) : Last Friday, our offense couldn't do anything against the Red Devils. Just before halftime we lined up in a T-formation (full house backfield). If anyone is too young to know what this is, a fullback is about five yards directly behind the quarterback and a half back to the right and left of the fullback. It lets the ball carrier run at any crease at full speed. It had some effect on N-C and seemed to tire them a little.
The Cavaliers aren't going to use a T formation since it's nearly obsolete but they play a power game so this is why I'm picking them by 7
Maiden (4-1, 2-0) at West Caldwell (0-5, 0-2) : I have to admire the West Caldwell team for their character and being school spirited and enduring one painful loss a after another. If any of their players or devoted fans read this, for what it's worth, I salute you. Maiden by 35
Lincolnton (2-3, 1-1) vs (2-3, 1-1) Bandys : Don't know what the Trojans have done differently but them playing West Lincoln close and beating East Burke decisively has made a believer out of me. I can only hope we put everything we got into it. The Wolves by 1
Side Note: An East Burke poster who is one of my favorite posters of all times, generally speaking, pinned this about our upcoming game with Bandys: "Get ready for a harder game than you anticipated"...
BFR, why the hell did you put that on there. Lincolnton has won two games by a total of 4 (four) points. Not by an average of four points but by a total. One win was by 3 points and another win by 1 point. With a record like that we can't underestimate nobody, and we have to go down there into such a hostile environment. I believe the Bandys people thinks all of us Lincolnton fans are on parole.
Oh, all picks are in bold type.
