East Wilkes @ Heritage

[BD Warrior]

Different levels of athleticism. Independence played Mt Tabor two weeks ago at Tabor and won 44-0 and looked super athletic. This past week they got beat by fifty some points to Hough. I'm sure Erwin looks athletic against some teams

That could be said for most teams in NC with the exception of the very best. Teams like Hough are more athletic than 95% of teams in NC. Erwin is not in the same class but neither is your team either. To say they are not athletic is silly though. They dropped 56 on a very good Brevard team who will likely beat the team that beat Reidsville last week. Again, I'm not saying Erwin is the most athletic team around. We will not be this week or here on out if we even win Friday. That being said I can promise you we are as athletic or more than most teams in 1A with the exception of maybe Tarboro.

Can't argue with this but most of the time in our area Mt Airy is the most athletic 1a school and it's not close. They always have 2 or 3 players that are burners. Watching them this year about the same

I agree. I've seen some SMC teams beat much faster and athletic teams over the years. Coaching and skill have a lot to do with it. It sounds like Mount Airy has all that. They are one team I've never seen play but I plan to if they play Heritage.

We are 2a but was in the same conference for few years so I've seen them play a lot. New head coach may hurt come crunch time. I know MH coach is really good and has seen it all.

If they play I plan on attending also.

I've been all over the state the last 25 years watching football. I just enjoy it no matter if my Warriors are involved or not. I've seen some amazing teams like the Chris Leak Independence squads and many more. I would like to see Mount Airy too. Dudley vs Hickory would be awesome as well. Guess I'll wait and see who is playing. I can dream that Erwin will be but I'm realistic. We have out hands full this week and if we pull that off we get Dudley! Lol

Hope you guys win this week the West 3a is loaded

Our local team West Stokes travels to Monroe Friday. West Stokes has some speed but will be playing against a track team. Speed everywhere

Just look at how West Stokes is gearing up to face Monroe; they may have speed, but going against a team with a reputation for track-like athleticism will definitely test their abilities.

 

[Thunder_struck8712]

West Stokes held their on against Reidsville until late. I think they'll give Monroe everything they want. Speed doesn't win football games alone.

It's brutal for sure. Funny thing is I haven't really kept up with the east at all because it seems like the West is so loaded that it will decide the championship. I know Havelock is really good but not sure about the rest.

This thread has covered every school in the state I believe, lol.

As for all the comments about different topics, personally I don't believe EW has a big line, nor do I believe they have speed(#3 is fastest). We just have kids in the skill positions that love to hit and fight for every extra yard they can get (especially #10, QB)

EW is physical.

Get out of here. These flatlanders know nothing about hitting or being physical.

Looks like EW has a good all around team. This may be the round for upsets

 

[RexReally]

Much like last week, I would like to see EW take this one and get to play one more week. Has East Wilkes ever played in December? It would mean a long trip for the Ronda folks next week though.

I think this one is closer than some think unless the East Wilkes team that plays Elkin every year shows up. If the hard nose grinding EW kids come with intent, I think they can actually pull this one out. They are just hard to guess sometimes. I will go with heart over head and say EW 28-27 with a missed XP deciding the game.

If the other East Wilkes shows up though, it will be a blow out for MH.

 

[Bengals4life]

Should be good game for a half , Robinson will make adjustments game over , heritage 35-14

 

[mhhs94]

With the newfound data entered Imma go with 43-13 cougs lol

 

[EWCards#1]

I'll be the first to eat crow but I don't see us getting blown out other than us turning the ball over numerous times.

21?

 

[EWCards#1]

21 is quick and will hit you as well. Personally I think #10 has a little more heart and determination.
