Glad I haven’t missed anything. LoL Its going down Friday night. That little choo choo you mountain folk ride on are going to be upset when the Bear Express comes rolling through. 😂
There's been 1 and sometimes 2 SMC teams practicing thanksgiving morning for as long as I've been alive and I'm pretty old.

Going into this season.......Top 5 all time wins...again this is not counting 20323
Shelby 850 wins
Reidsville 804
Mt. Airy 770
Asheville 693
Thomasville 684
Or the numbers can be used as an excuse if they don't
Close, but this is wrong. Mt. Airy had 777 wins going into this season. Don't rely on other people's information. We are now 791-337-35. I have documentation on every game.
Everybody was in 3\A during that time period, Elkin had half the enrollment that MA had and they were 3/A. Elkin won the western state title in 1967.
This is correct! Elkin played in our 3A conference and was even a powerhouse in the late 60's in 3A. Had 1A size enrollment.
I wouldn't buy piece of candy off him if his life depended on it
Are most of MA state championship really before 1950s when there was only like 2 classes. Probably not much traveling for schools back then when they played football
Traveled more! State Championships were played on home fields. Most small communities didn't play 11 man football. Therefore, many had to travel every away game a great distance to another city to play. Mt. Airy even played Tennessee High in Bristol, Canden SC, Fayetteville NC, Dublin, VA Whiteville, Edenton, Wilson, Charlotte Harding and Hamlet many times in the regular season.
Very impressive thread. Good luck to both teams.
IMO no state titles by any teams means much before integratio.n. That’s just my option.
I’m from Andrews. No one from Robbinsville said a word ! No excuses from the Black Knights
Thanks.
For example. Our 1938 State Championship team's away games were Camden, SC (defending SC State Champion), RJ Reynolds (Winston-Salem), Asheville, Leaksville (Rockingham County), and Reidsville. We won the State Championship at home against Whiteville. They had to travel that year.

I'm 73 so I can tell you from the 30's to late 60's Reidsville's biggest rivalry was Mt. Airy....used to be in the same conference (last year of that was 1970)..............classic games between the two, that got so heated that for about a 10 year stretch (early 40's to early 50's) their game was played in Winston-Salem (Bowman Gray Stadium, neutral sight)....miss playing those guys....the two teams did play once since 1970, in 2019, and were to play again the following year, but COVID reared it's ugly head....
18 years from 1934 to 1951 with the exception of 1936 either Reidsville or Mt. Airy played for the State championship.
Reidsville won 6 and was runner-up 4 times.
Mt. Airy won 5 and was runner-up 2 times.
Reidsville and Mt. Airy were huge rivals! Biggest there has ever been at any level in NC. Yep, played mostly at Bowman Gray Stadium.

No sir. Those are fine, well mannered young men, each and every one. Not at all like all of us crumple, ill foul mouth, disrespectful old men. Several are homeless or nearly so. Most are current or former bootleggers that drank most the haul before delivery.
No dog in this fight but my two cents worth Rville barely beat MH beginning of the year a MH team that improved quite a bit as the season went but Rville hammered a team that beat that improved MH.
You better be ahead of MA by half because they're a second half team though being ahead didn't help ER last week. So if the first is close Rville will need to make good arrangements at the half themselves especially on offense and show something that MA didn't see in the first and have prepared for.
People have mentioned Rville running game my question is can they pass which looks like MA weakest part of their D and defensively can they stop #5 & #4 especially on the outside?
I believe the difference may come down to turnovers according to Rbvill fans they've had some fumble issues this year you can't turn the ball over to a good team so they better get a hold on that. I'd be surprised if this is a blowout ether way.
Oh bty are there any UNC fans on here , my football season was made yesterday 🤣

I watched most of that State was clicking yesterday
Anyone else noticed that all the Robbinsville posters left this thread ? #humble
How good is the kicker for Robbinsville. In high school not letting the opposing team start on the 35 plus yard line is important. Good offenses can score quickly if you set them up.
