Monroe balled out in the regular season, but come playoff time, it’s a whole new game. NE be scoring like it’s nothin'.... that’s they secret sauce. Gonna be real dope to see how they handle Monroe’s defense, straight up.
Monroe vs NE state championship
- Thread starter Football101de
- Start date
Ain't no doubt. Monroe been wreckin' it lately, they ain't just rackin' up points.....they hittin' hard from all angles, keepin' them defenses on they toes.
Well then we should get along fine and have no problems. It’s no secret around our area how I roll when it comes to gambling, I’m not a railbird, I’m in action. We’re probably a lot alike. @Football101de I sports bet at Rivers Casino in Portsmouth Va. It’s 45 minutes from our farm in Camden County. I go there and place my bets in person on mostly college football and basketball games. Then I go out on the floor and play table games and slots. You bring up the pool hall frequently but our family closed the pool room down when my father died during the pandemic and I quit playing competitively.
I visit Riverside around 5 times a year. Most likely going back in January.
I don’t think scoring 24 points is scoring like it’s nothing
It’s not my favorite casino but it's less than an hour away so it’s a no brainer. They are building one in downtown Norfolk just across the river so that should be nice.
Cal Prep predicts:
playoffs (neutral field)
[2024] Monroe (NC) 40 (77%), [2024] Northeastern (Elizabeth City, NC) 28 (23%)

[2024] Monroe (NC) 40 (77%), [2024] Northeastern (Elizabeth City, NC) 28 (23%)
About same score as 3rd round against West Stokes. I'm not sure they score 48 against Northeastern
I will go with 12-20 point win for Monroe. I figured the score vs Reidsville would have been about the same as Shelby.
Probably nobody on here dislikes Monroe more than I do, but I got to give respect where it's due and they have not had the playoff collapse from years past this year. Monroe's strength of schedule is probably slightly tougher. I don't know how fast Northeastern is, but you better be able to cover the whole field against Monroe. If you are thinking they can't drive the field, you are wrong. Monroe is arguably the most explosive team in the state.
Anybody can be beaten on any given night, and this is the state championship game. Both teams deserve to be here and congrats on a great season is in order no matter what. Monroe wins this one. Maybe close, but I doubt it.

I’m a NE poster and I just don’t seeing it being close either. Go Eagles 🦅
BEEP BEEP 💨
Any posters plan on attending this game?
For what it's worth, a touchdown is considered a first down.
I know exactly what you meant, and I'm not trying to be smart. I just wanted to interject a "fun fact" that many people aren't aware of.
Yes. Going to play golf at NC State and then go over to Chapel Hill. Can’t wait!
I am trying to make plans too. If I make it, I would like to meet you guys.
Any big play for a TD that crosses the first down marker is statistically counted as a first down.
I spent a few years in Raleigh, but never got the chance to play Lonnie Poole. Is it pretty good?
They (Simmons,Calpreps) aren’t giving us much of a chance. I don’t feel the same way. I do believe we’ll need to play better than we did in our last game. Although we did win I felt like our offense wasn’t as crisp as it usually is. Something just seemed off. Now our defense has really been playing well and Monroe will w/o question will be hard to slow down. Only Central Davidson and Forest Hills have held them below 40.
Wiz, former Clinton High Amaris Williams (Auburn) is entering the portal. Do you think he might wind up with your Wolfpack or my Heels?
If he’s in the portal for a reason other than being closer to home then he won’t be going anywhere near a school in NC. But who knows with Bill Bellichick coaching at UNC.
