Well folks, I have to agree with BK on this one. Anytime you lose to Robbinsville its an embarrassment.
Murphy vs. Pisgah @ WCU .... 8/17
- Thread starter GreyGod623
- Start date
How many real championships does Pisgah have? Robbinsville is a very good program, Graham County eats sleeps football.
No shame to lose to anyone in the SMC. Over 30 state championships reside in this conference.
Now lets get back to talking Murphy VS Pisgah. Its now only 11 days away!!!!
This will be a good game. Pisgah usually plays much better competiton year in and year out but Murphy has done very well at the 1A level. I might check this one out. I will see Murphy tonight vs Asheville in a scrimmage. Ill let you know how they look.
Not to stir the pot here, but we will never really know how tough Murphy's schedule is cause no one else plays the same Georgia teams that Murphy plays, the only game Pisgah and Murphy can compare from last year is Franklin and well... that's not real good comparison to say the least
I understand, when it comes to match-ups, "Heritage smoked Erwin last year and Erwin smoked Franklin, by that logic we should smoke Franklin, but then Hendo smoked Heritage and Murphy beat hendo so by that logic Murphy should beat Heritage," it don't always add up like it should, and I'm a Heritage fan in case you couldn't tell lol

Murphy 21-0 over Asheville tonight in scrimmage
Just meant they have played teams like South Point, Shelby, Hibriten, Asheville, Reynolds, Erwin, etc over the years. Murphy really doesn't play those type teams. Not a shot at Murphy at all. I guess it has to do with their location.
My buddy was there last night. He said that Asheville has really dropped off from what we all know. I doubt they stay down long though.
Well BD that's 3 years in a row that the Dogs have worked over Asheville or Erwin in a scrimmage in Buncombe county....As Chris berman said, one is accident, 2 is a trend 3 is a problem....bottom line neither of these 2 buncombe teams are as good as the top level teams in the state in 1A the last 3 seasons....are they down or just not that good ?
You guys have little man complex bad. I wasn't taking a dig a Murphy. Everyone knows Asheville is struggling right now. Murphy most certainly did not work over Erwin either. I was there. Can you answer me one question. If you guys are so hell bent on beating The MAC's top teams in scrimmages, why not play them in a real game. I am sure Reynolds will drop Shelby and pick up Murphy any day. Erwin had to play teams from all over Tenn and GA because they couldn't get local games the last few years. Asheville can hardly ever get local teams to play real games out of conference. Roberson plays Crest. They will drop that I promise. Just play local. That is simple. I respect what you guys have done on the 1A level. Quit taking stuff so personal when someone state the obvious about Asheville right now.

So I guess since the Bears ran all over that big 4A school from South Carolina in our scrimmage according to you Murphy want have a chance?Hope you're right.

I would really like to see that as well. If not that then Murphy vs Reynolds. I have respect for Murphy. Not sure how my comment was taken out of context about Asheville being down because they clearly are. That had nothing to do with Murphy.
With the amount of kids and talent that Asheville has to draw from I'm not buying that Asheville is just down. They should be able to go toe to toe with any 1A team in the state any year good or bad.
I just find it amusing that a 1A team puts three scores on Asheville and the automatic, "they're just down this year" starts lol.
I have seen Asheville play every season since around 95. YES they are down right now. Its a damn scrimmage game anyways. Who cares. Why do Murphy fans stay so defensive all the time. I said nothing bad about them at all. If it bothers you so much then play them. I could care less about the game 17 years ago between those two. Ask ACR to drop Shelby. I am sure they wont care. Ask Roberson to drop Crest. Just quit hijacking every thread trying to remind us how great Murphy is.
Then play them. It's that simple! Case closed then right?
Hijacking? First thread I've posted in. I'm laughing, you're upset. The problem is that you can't make a statement like that and not expect any opposing fan to not respond. I'm just saying Asheville being down has zero to do with this. It's a 3A team vs a 1A team. The also has zero to do with ACR or crest or Roberson. Murphy played Asheville, it is what it is.
Murphy played Asheville almost 20 years ago. Who cares. I simply said Asheville is struggling right now. That is a fact. Ask anyone who has actually seen them on a regular basis. Until these two play a real game, who knows.
I think the Murphy folks may be saying Asheville may be a little better than what you think. Asheville probably is down some but this years Murphy team is up. Asheville might be below their fans standards but they'll probably still pretty decent. Regardless it was just a scrimmage.
You actually work?? You sound like you draw a check every month. Dont forget MICS on your head for 80 points.
Mountain Heritage did look good , so did Swain and Pisgah .Good scrimmage for all three teams I thought Pisgah scored against the Cougars and once against Swain but I could be wrong.Pisgah JV scored four times and the Cougars scored twice.Good luck to your cougars think they will have a good year.
I'm going by hear say because I didn't make the scrimmage, but the varsity starters only gave up one TD to swain and none to Pisgah, not a knock at either team just heard we were laying some leather tonight
"Erwin had to play teams from all over Tenn and GA because they couldn't get local games the last few years. Asheville can hardly ever get local teams to play real games out of conference." And why would you think that might be the case? It has less to do with the quality of the competition than economics.
I was at the game last night, Heritage was the best team by a wide margin. Pisgah could not move the ball against their defense on the ground they score on a pass play. Heritage was getting 5 yards every play. Swain look good last night, they will surprise some teams this year.
ITS GAME WEEK!!! Time for the Bears to unleash the River Rats and take it to the Casino Dawgs. 49-21 BEARS
