Lincolnton vs Reidsville Regional Finals

Not open for further replies.
I will come by. I've sat in the pressbox for 20 years at Starmount and sometimes I miss the outdoor atmosphere.
 
Didn't mean to stir the pot, just was curious. don't matter now, two best teams in 2a about to do battle, good luck to both teams.. Enjoy your week and may best team win!
 
To the LHS Athletics Boosters, I propose we allocate funds for our own Port-a-Mustangs... err Jons.

With the band purportedly going and the pack of Wolves fans I anticipate that will descend upon that place, port-a-johns aren't the only amenities that I doubt will be in sufficient supply. We plan to get there early because I'm sure seating will be extremely limited. Perhaps Short Sugars is in our future? I'm not sure the rest of our group will go for it, but I've sure heard enough about it.

Here's something interesting former Reidsville Player and my son Jayron Rankin #32 (LB/RB) and Former Lincolnton Player Tyron Roberts (DL) will be riding to Fridays game together. These two Played against each other during the 2014 season and are now teammates Winston Salem State. You can go from being rival/enemies to teammates and friends with the swipe of a pin.

Yes sir, that is interesting and impressive, too. I remember standout Reidsville player J. Rankin. And Lincolnton standout, number 40 big T. Roberts. This too, is what makes high school football great. It can be a connection for some of the best athletes from so many different locations.

Short Sugar...We had a linebacker once, that went by that name. Good player, I think his name was Strap, or something like that. Think he played some college ball!
 
Amen.
Did either team throw the ball at that game? .there's a rumor tha passing will be quelled by the weather.
I'd hate to ride to Virginia just to watch both passing teams fail...

My coldest all involved App State...who were a pass happy spread offensive juggernaut.

Cold affects the passing game some but not as much as wind or rain. I don't see the weather having a large impact Friday night based on the temperatures that are forecast.
 
We played in extreme cold weather several years ago up in Burnsville against Mountain Heritage. With the temperature in the teens the offense still aired it out. So I don't see this Friday being any different.
 
Hope all this rain getting tonight and all day tomorrow by Friday night the field will be dry and not muddy
 
Some Lincolnton offensive stats through their first 3 playoff games:
Ppg - 62.7
QB Littlejohn -1005 yds passing, 16 TDs
RB McClain - 577 yds rushing, 7 TDs
Impressive numbers for sure ... I knew Sage Surratt was good, but didn't realize he is the all-time leading receiver in N.C. ...
Surratt heading to Harvard ... anything ahead college wise for some of the other Lincolnton standouts?

Now if only we had someone like wolvesfan30 anchoring the middle of that defense we would be a well rounded, well oiled machine.
 
With the band comes the ever ringing bell!

OK finally something. Come on guys just got in from basketball game. Go to NCPreps and you people are sitting around a campfire singing Kumbaya and asking about barbeque, concession stands and port-a-johns?

Get something going to be interesting.

You both have impact making transfers so that ain't it.

Lincolnton gave up on Reidsville schedule so that ain't it.

Reidsville gave up on Lincolnton defense so that ain't it.

I got it. That dang bell. If it travels, trust me Rams, you will regret letting it in the stadium.

There now get back to fussing and stop all this congeniality

That's what we were trying to say early in the post...when someone made reference about Tre Turner.... Sage owns every individual receiving record in the state as of last Friday night..catches, yardage, and TD's...and could possibly break single season catches and single season TD catches...as well...and some act like that's nothing to think on.....its rather impressive to us...
 
I've seen so many games like this where it's the X Factor player that made the difference rather than the super star.
 
Surratt and Givens compliment each other very well. They've both benefited from playing on the same team. They both have good size and great hands, but are very different kinds of players. But I keep thinking one of these games #20 Sherrill is gonna be a difference maker and have a couple huge catches. Not that we've needed him to so far, but if he gets the opportunity, look out.
 
Man

I open up Preps this morning and see 9 pages... I get excited , anticipating the back and forth banter...

What has this thread become? It has turned into the " Hey guy, give me a back rub" LOL

Since no one will talk smack, Ill talk it for you!!! (And the fact some of you asked me to do this)

From the Lincolnton side:

Reidsville schedule sucks, which in turn means we win by 28
Reidsville's signature win was against McMichael this year and they suck too
Reidsville reminds me of home, we too use an outhouse for a restroom
Our BBQ is better than Short Sugars, however my tenth grade girlfriend shared the same name
You cant stop Surratt, Givens, the pint sized running back or a plethora of other players that don't as much get a sniff of the ball since Surratt came over
We beat you a couple times so that in turn, means we beat you again
Your schedule is horrible
Your hot dogs are made from regurgitated BBQ from Short Sugars, which means our City Lunch dogs are better, meaning we win by 28
We have an old wise poster named Lincolnton! What you got? And Old Mule!!! We win by 28
Shelby Lion once said we were his second favorite team... He was being nice at the time, so that means we win by 28
You played Bartlett Yancey whatever that is... We played Maiden and they beat us to death, which means they are better than Bartlett Yancey which means we win by 28
Your schedule is horrible
Lion Attack said that your schedule thus far means you suck in playoffs, he is always right, so that means we win by 28
Your colors are almost like Shelby colors, which always has intimidated us, but we beat them back in 2001 in the playoffs, and ripped up some sod to take home, meaning
we no longer fear Gold colors... You wear gold, we don't fear gold, meaning now, we win


From the Reidsville side

We have the best unknown quarterback, no one outside of Rockingham county has ever heard of, which means we beat the brakes off Lincolnton.
You had a transfer meaning, we will win the game because transfers mean you really suck, but not as bad as you did before the transfer
This is the best team since 2009.... Or 2007 When Ray Ray whats his face was the Qb... We beat Shelby that year 28-20 in the title game, they beat you last year
in the semis, meaning we boot stomp the wolves
Whoever makes the Wolves sound is not good at it, meaning we win by 42
Reidsville has 18 state championships, meaning that's more than you by 17, meaning add 18+17 plus 5 and we win by at least 40
We are 27 deep on the defensive line, meaning we will have a fresh body in there every 9.8 seconds meaning you have no chance
Our hot dogs are better than your hot dogs, no matter what Cushwa says...
Short Sugars beats Whatever that slop you have at the intersection of 27 and 150 sells, but both are not nearly as good as either Bridges in Shelby...
We have a runningback but don't remember his name because we are so deep, and because this is the best team we have had since 2009
Stan who mixed his name with animallector, had a son who played a couple years ago, who was great and is now friend with a Lincolnton player, and since we won 18 state championships, that means we will win Friday, then beat whomever comes out of the east by 84 and win number 19
We are the football capital of NC no matter what Shelby says... Yes they have more wins, and have won like 3-4-5 titles in a row, but we are better dang it... Shut it Shelby you suck
We have a Mule, yall have a Wolvesfan... We win by default
Yall have a fan names Tennvolsfan.... He pulls for The Vols meaning you suck, and we beat you because of that.
We won 18 state championships
We have a fan Ram something 12, who acts 12 and likes to stir up the boards, and even rags on us..... Meaning we win
Shelby Lion said he likes our fan base so that means we win easily...
Tanner Wilson has an arm, its going to be cold, his arm is better than Littlejohns arm in cold weather, meaning you have no chance
Our defense only gave up 1/2 a yard all season you gave up like 800 against Farley from Maiden
Our offense outscored our conference foes 1020 to 0, meaning we have the best defense in history of the state


That's about all I can think of right now, but this is just a few of the things friends from both sides told me this week...

Good luck....State championship right here because everyone knows any teams called Columbus or Holmes don't deserve a shot at the title.... We are west, meaning we are better (*Don't shoot the messenger eastern fans, this is what they all told me)

Both sides are so nervous about this game that they didn't want to post their thoughts, hence reason they asked me to post for them

You are welcome,

Shelby Lion
 
ER and Providence Grove, two irrelevant schools who love to talk trash on and off the field
Irrelevant to this thread perhaps except that ER was beaten by Lincolnton earlier in playoffs and Reidsville has a very good RB/LB who transferred from the Wildcats.

ComeGetSomeRR your "Theory of Relativity" is not e=mc squared. Google it.


And as far as talking trash really? I am one of very few posters from either and as hard as I look cannot find where there is any trash being thrown about.

Sorry Lincolnton/Reidsville guys did not mean to hijack thread. Wait wasn't me was it?

Sorry Kidd

You are from Eastern Randolph Wildcats aren't as scary as Wolves or Rams...A wolve will devour you, and Ram will head butt you back to the Pisgah Covered Bridge... Crest beat yall one time 40-0 in the state championship meaning, no one from Eastern Randolph is supposed to post on any Championship material teams threads...

However I like you posts, meaning you now have a free one year pass to post on any board... feel free to plunder and pillage....Lord knows these clowns are scared too

Thanks SL I tried but am an amateur compared to you. I will try and refine my skills of sarcasm and can only hope I reach the pinnacle of success you have already achieved. You have been my inspiration for many of my attempts at lightening up these forums.

Not sure if I can plunder and pillage. At my age pillage is amount of medicine for the week? But I will try.

As for ER they did beat Charlotte Catholic and Thomasville I believe in state title games. So there!

:)

A friend of whatever county Shelby is in cause no one ever mentions it

Thanks, Shelby Lion. Both sides could probably use the help to get it jump started back. Trash talking is like that, or so it seems. There are high marks then there are lulls. This is one of the lulls. Maybe this will rekindle it. Frankly, I think both sides are a little worried about the outcome. Neither of us want our seasons to end. We want to win it all. While visions of sugar plums danced in their heads, you know.

For us the only time acerbic tones never cease is before our game with East Lincoln. It probably would ease up, some, but East hates our guts, you know. Best of luck against Monroe. Hope you get to take in the game.

The Kidd12, speaking for myself as a Lincolnton sort you are always welcome to post on one of our threads. I feel sure our people respect the Wildcats...Also, Shelby is in Cleveland County.

Cleveland county you say? They have never brought that up in any of the multitudes of threads congratulating themselves on their performances on the gridiron. :)

Thanks for the kind words Lincolnton. Good luck to you guys Friday. I am torn on who to root for. My son says it would be OK to lose to eventual state champion while #34 for Reidsville used to be one of his teammates. All joking aside should be, and hopefully is, a good game.
 
theKidd12, if you're for us we're glad to have you but if you go with the Rams that's understandable. We know fans have sentiments for area teams. I'm thinking Ramseur is about an hour from Reidsville and maybe two and a half times that far from Lincolnton. When ER came here a couple of weeks ago I had got off from work that afternoon and I was tired. I thought somebody form ER got off from work, tired, too, and had to drive two and a half hours over here.

About Cleveland County, Crest (Boiling Springs-Shelby), Burns (Fallston-Lawndale,et al) and Kings Mountain are there, some good football. It Borders five counties I can think of but not as many as Randolph. It's home to the liver mush festival, Earl Scruggs, Floyd Patterson, who was heavyweight champion of the world, American Legion Baseball World Series, and, of course, the renowned football champs, the Shelby Golden Lions, and last but not least many good people including my friends who are NC Preps posters, Shelby Lion and 65 Lion.
