I look forward to reading all about the Black Friday match-up between these two squads.

On film they look average...and I know to us that could be deadly....Lol...they have some speed and like to throw off of what I've seen...didn't notice anything over the top to actually put me on concern alert early....
14 is generous? You must walk by those people ringing the bells at Walmart pretty quickly.
Not saying ER will win or even that final will be close but they can put up some points occasionally.
And why does everybody LOL? Hard to hear anything at all in here with all that LOL-ing going on.
Not everyone is laughing. The first impression I got from reading the Courier-Tribune article was the Wildcats can put up some points.
For Lincolnton to have given up 60+ a few weeks back to a Maiden team that got booted in round 1, they probably shouldn't be so "sure" of that defense.
All in all, Lincolnton is the heavy favorite but unbeatable? Not even close.

So you have Eastern Randolph being 1 point better than Thomasville?
The same Thomasville that was crushed by Randleman and Wheatmore? Yes Wheatmore.
Think ER beat both of those teams.
OK after a little bit of research I have discovered the guys posting these score predictions are Reidsville backers not Lincolnton fans.
What did ER do to you? All we have done is give you one of your best players this year?
Enjoy those 2 TDs and and 10 tackles per game.
Safe travels to you guys making that trip to the den....should be a great night for some football!!!
ER has done nothing..just giving a honest prediction of the game..and I do enjoy watching ER`s ex player aka Boogie on the field for the Rams. He brings that "IT Factor" to the game and both communities should be very proud of this young man! Best of luck to yall, but I just think Ltown is alittle too strong..jmho!
Lol...we feel the same way with MH coming to your place hope they pull the upset as well but....well you know...good luck to all!!!
Thanks. Played West Lincoln in baseball in Easter tourney at Mcrary. Then my son played a showcase tourney at West and had a sun delay this summer.
Lincolnton isn't quite as far from here I think and we hope to get through all the road construction in time for game.
Firstly am happy he is doing well. Always did when he was healthy. Just had an injury filled junior year. With ER passing game this year his production on ground is missed.
As far as done nothing am going to have to disagree. 9-3 overall and 4-1 good for 2nd in conference. This team was favored by most,including myself, to win maybe 3 games total on the year. Like I have said in many other posts they have overachieved greatly from what was expected of them.
Lincolnton very well may be "too strong" for ER. By who they have played and how all the experts, i.e. Maxpreps,Simmons,etc, rank them this should as ya'll say be "no contest".
They also said that before ER played Randleman at their place.
Like I have said on another site, we going to make the trip anyway and what happens, happens.
Playing against you guys would be cool. What with #34 against former team but all the stars would have to line up for ER to win this Friday.
Reidsville should be in the same conference with ER. Some people in Randolph County (not ER people Im sure) made sure they weren't in Reidsville's conference anymore.
You're right about the road construction. I went from Thomasville by way of I-40 and 321, but returned home by 321 and 85. Had about a twenty minute delay both ways for construction. Once you get there, it's a nice venue and the hospitality is excellent.
I know very little about ER. But having seen Lincolnton firsthand, you'd better be ready to score some points. Lot of talent for the Wolves. It helps to have some tall athletic DB's, because their receivers certainly are.
Making score comparisons involving Thomasville is very deceiving. The Bulldogs played by far their worst games of the year against Randleman and Wheatmore. The change at QB in the 10th game of the season made a world of difference.
It's my opinion that Lincolnton would beat Randleman or Wheatmore by 4-5 td's. They're the real deal.
It`s all good. With the transfer of Boogie and the kid from BY brings back a lot of memoirs for this old man in the 80`s! Y`all had that Fox kid that was fast as lighting!
I was a little before that. Graduated a couple of years before Alan Hooker did his thing in 3A in 83. Now he could play.
They may beat Wheatmore by that much but Randleman might be a little different. Took Andrews to OT and lost I think because of a missed extra point. Then ER beats Randleman at their place on a FG. Of course Andrews put 50 on ER but Wildcats scored 28.
May beat ER that bad I have no idea. Don't usually compare scores but I think ER has a more potent offense than Thomasville. Whether it shows Friday or not who knows?
Best thing about PAC6 is the longest ride is Andrews. Also have county rivals in which makes it better. JM comes in next year and it is 15 minutes from ER and a lot of boys know each other.
The only reason Randleman went over time aganist Andrews is every time we go to Randleman the Ref's want give us a break. Put us on a neutral site, we would win by 35.

OK? But this about ER/Lincolnton. Look around there are 10 or 15 threads on what you want to talk about.
I certainly hope that ER brings a more potent offense than Thomasville who had only 2 first downs the entire first half against Lincolnton and scored their 13 pts in the 4th qtr against Lincolnton's 2nd and 3rd team players. I expect ER to bring more offense and score some TDs but it won't be enough to offset what Lincolnton will put on the board.
