acr by 24. southern lee by 10. science hill by 24 erwins qb has 1100 yds passing in the loss 94 to 70. enka by 7. mitchell by 10. tcr in a close game by 3 i think the rams are getting things going in the right direction. west henderson by 6.
 
ACR by 21....Another break for the Rockets. Should be over by half

Southern Lee by 6...This will be a tough road game gor the Cougars I believe going by SL record so far. Wouldn't shock me if they win though.

Enka by 10....Enka is not very good but they should be able to beat a winless 1A team.

Erwin by 3...Another tough game for my team with the 6A Hilltoppers from Tenn. It is obvious Erwin can put up crazy offensive numbers but we have to find some form of defense to beat teams like this.

Mcdowell by 1...Mitchell is undefeated but has played nobody. I think McDowell can spring a upset here.

WH by 8...Neither team is that good but I think WH will pull away in a tight ball game.

Freedom by 21...Yes Roberson is undefeated, but they have not played anyone either. That changes the next two weeks..
 
I agree BD Reynolds, Erwin and Asheville would all be undefeated if they played that schedule.
 
I see Enka will finally have something to celebrate. Scheduling Hayesville is typical. Stinka has stooped low to get a win. What a bunch of duche bags in that athletic department. What's next, ringing the AD at the middle schools?
 
the way i see it. whatever it takes to get a win. enka should do it. it must be demoralizing for the enka kids to hardly ever win. i dont blame them. ill be pulling for them to win.

Also wanted to share this link for anyone who is wanting to donate to the Metcalf family for Asheville's OC Coach Charlie Metcalfs 3rd bout with cancer in 4 years. This man has had a tremendous impact on many lives over the years as a great teacher and coach including mine, and he is well known by many coaches around the state. Please keep him and his family in your thoughts and prayers Praying for you Coach Metcalf!

 
I seen that Erwin jv beat Asheville last night at the high 58-40. Looks like neither team plays defense as well..lol
 
I'm hearing it's Cougars 20 - Southern Lee 14 at the half. Anybody know if that's true?
 
ACR 45 Watauga 43. ACR kicks fg with less than 5 secs left. We rush the field and get two 15 yd flags for celebration. ( don't know how that happens). We kick from our own 3 and then tackle the return man. Game over. ACR tackling was god awful tonight. Can someone tell me how you get two celebration flags on one celebration.

Anyway. ACR I am sure will have some tackling drills on Monday.
 
I listened to the Asheville game on the radio. If it weren't for bad snaps asheville may have won this game.

How many bad snaps lead to a 56-28 loss? Sounds like a complete disaster on center/QB exchange if that was the difference in the game.
 
Jumbob, seems like they had one on every drive. No joke. They had one on a punt they lost about 40 yards on.
 
It's weird the MAC being so down. It's strange but I think the WNCAC may be stronger this year. I can't remember the last time the MAC was this down. Can any of you all? Not trying to diss the MAC at all. They've shown over the years they're clearly the best conference in the mountains, but this is just a bad year.
 
Even something crazier than that Polar bear...do i dare say it? T.C. Roberson MAC Champs? They beat Freedom tonight on the road.
 
Yeah that score surprised me a lot but with the way the MAC is this year is so weird I guess you couldn't rule it out!! That sophomore QB of theirs is huge
 
I've said all along the MAC would be way down this year. Last year I felt like the MAC had 3 good teams, but none of them made it past the second round. Hard to believe that Erwin and Asheville could be looking at 1-5 in a couple weeks.

The MAC is as bad as I have ever seen it by far. It is absolutely TERRIBLE.
 
im not giving up on the mac just yet. the big 3 have all played tough non conference games. the other conferences in the mountains are verry good this year but all in all the mac is still the big dog period. i think come playoff time we will be just fine. over at asheville they seem to be down a notch or two talent wise. but in my opinion this team is playing much harder than last years team did and they had a ton of talent.if i was a cougar fan id be much prouder of this years effort. here at acr seems our defense at times just isnt there but theyre working n giving every effort to get better. im very proud to be a rocket fan. and just like years past i think we will improve every game thru the season. and who knows about erwin . all that offense they have. i think they will be very dangerous to play. if our pass defense doesnt improve our game with them might be a 75 to 73 games.
 
I honestly think the wncac may be better than the MAC this year. Enka, NB, and McDowell are terrible. This may be the worst Asheville team since 2001, and Erwin and Roberson look very average. In the Wncac, Tuscola, Franklin, and Pisgah are all solid along with North Henderson, West Henderson, and Smoky who are all better than Enka, North Buncombe, and McDowell.
 
Well if Erwin wins this week, that means two MAC teams will have taken down perennial wncac champion Franklin and both at the pit! I think it's way to early to put a fork in the MAC, we are plying very good teams for the most part.
 
In its last 6 games, Asheville is 1-5 with the lone win being a bs 20 point comeback thanks to a missed fg as time expired where we won by 1.

Asheville is in the midst of it's worst stretch of games in the 21st century and that's a fact.
Since before 2000 Asheville has never had a stretch of losing 5 out of 6 games and based on our next two games it will likely be 7 out of 8.

I'll give our guys credit for playing hard, but if you don't have any talent, you just don't have any talent. And if it is true that the reason we don't have any talent is in part because the middle school coach is telling players to go elsewhere for high school then he should be fired immediately.
This Asheville team has talent in spots on the field, but you can't have 2 good skill guys and a good d lineman and be a good team. Top to bottom this is the smallest weakest team Asheville has put on the field in nearly 20 years.
 
Carver is not good this year. That should be a close game. ACR is a good team and will be physical.
 
i agree with thar cougarfan but your team is giving the effort rite? and if the talent pool is down at least u have the effort. every school goes thru that at times its inevitable
 
They give the effort but overall they aren't good. No size or strength. If you sent out gaskin Leota and Brewer to the coin toss you might think we were something but the rest of the team looks like big middle school players
 
Oh yeah kids play hard and with a lot more effort and heart than last year's team that was really loaded. I know last year's team had over 20 something seniors and that never happens at Asheville. Had a lot of kids that had been playing varsity for three years but if you punched them in the mouth they quit. Never seen a Asheville team do that. This year's team I think has a lot talent just learning a new offense and they are really young on the lines. The main problem has been turnovers and penalties and they are very small for an Asheville team. But I'm still hoping they will turn things around.

I think the MAC is down somewhat but a lot of it has to do with scheduling. The MAC's "big 3" have all played very tough schedules vs what the WNCAC or any other mtn conference has seen. Just look at the the top 3 in the wncac. With the exception of Pisgah and Franklin playing Asheville nobody has played a quality schedule yet. That shows up in the win loss column.
 
Playing Asheville this year doesn't help your strength of schedule at all this year.
