NCPreps Elite 8 2A Rankings - Week 11
- Thread starter Deana_King
- Start date
I’m on board and I ALWAYS be but I don’t live in fantasy land either. I call it like I see it.
IMO the percentage that WRH would win against this sites top 5...
Shelby—5% No way we could stop their passing game
Reidsville—35% Some defensive issues but we don’t pass so they would load the box
Hibriten—40% Fairly easy schedule so we would definitely have a chance
Burns—35% Their only 2 losses are to Shelby and a very strong Kings Mountain team
Southwest Edgecombe—65% Only loss was to undefeated Tarboro but they haven’t played anyone else
Now if we could get fully healthy we might could give them all a run for their money

ain't hating...I respect the heck out of WRH...just merely adding to the conversation ,and you're right....maxpreps...ncpreps...calpreps, etc...none of those ever account for injuries.....it's a part of football and every team has to deal with it....some years are worse than others.............
I'm not the brightest light bulb in the lamp,but when does opinion become reality. That's right,when it actually happens. It's only your opinion and in this case you probly one that talks bad about coaching ,calls and just negative toward our ( not your) bulldogs. Tell you what,run that negative trap in the stands Friday night. Bet you get a lot of push back . Better yet ,go sit on visitor side.
North Lincoln's loss to Parkwood was the first game of the season on the road on a wet field in OT. They made lots of mistakes...missed two FGs and an extra point. North has improved every game since and are a different team now. IMO this NL team is much better than the one that went to the 3rd rd of the playoffs before losing to Shelby last year.
I understand why North is not getting more respect in the rankings since they are not a team that has been in the playoffs year in and year out. However, things have changed. Coach Nick Bazzle will have them there year in and year out. Once the playoffs start rankings mean nothing...just a word of caution to those who may overlook this NL team.
Pretty sure you misunderstood my point,, its wasnt that shelby was lucky to win,,, its the matchups,,, the injuries,, the calls along the way where you need the luck. Its drawing the teams you match up with along the way to test you for the next round.. Missing catches is not lucky,, that game could have just as easy gone the other way.. Both teams made big mistakes at big points in that game... not always the best team wins.... You call out the fact that gee hadnt been run down wft? That team wasnt built around gee, was built with him,but sometime guys get lucky and can run him down,,, lucky for you,, you didnt have to sit in the snow in Chapel Hill watching shelby finish the drive for five.... so yes i stand behind my lucky quote,, if we were lucky your receivers dropped passes, then so be it,, made for a dang sure regional finals and i was pretty proud of both teams that night...
I def didnt see anyone from Shelby run G Witherspoon down either. Shelby won with a great offense. Lets not get it twisted though. He ran thru Shelby the year that Hibriten won it all. Shelby won it last year, and is always amazing. But none of yall ran G down. But you did win.

Me and 98 State Champion run that site.
I guess this doesn't really affect you guys but the bracket is still no good as far as 2AA goes. Oak Grove is still slated as 2A and there is no way that is happening. It messes up the whole subdivison and regions as far as east and west.
Clinton has #1 in the East, as it should be. A couple tough games in your bracket, if it stays like that. Save us some left over turkey as we will be hungry 3rd round when we come to dinner at Dark Horse Stadium.....
dangit. I was going to go look. But if they
Didn’t take the advice that oak grove was definitely 2AA, then there is no point.
Meanwhile they have ND as one of the last 5 in currently. ND has an adjusted ranking of 63 currently while in the low 40s in the regular rankings. They need to win one of the next two games to make the playoffs. That should bump them up enough to get in but obviously we would prefer to win both to guarantee it lol. North really screwed themselves by losing to Tville and starting the year 0-3 against strong competition.
Yeah kinda takes the fun out of "what could happen" when you know it can't!!!
AND, there is one more school east of them that will definitely be 2AA. (OG)
Nick Stevens (editor at highschoolOT) got yet another email from me today.... this time with a link to the davidson county ADM report.
What are the odds that the next projection they put out is just as worthless as this latest one?
I mean, things will change. Someone is going to move west... Forest Hills, I guess.
Agreed. And yes, if ND goes East I like their chances and there are potential rematches with both OG and Ledford. If they go West, well... I don't expect much lol. At this point making the playoffs would be a good accomplishment for salvaging the season after the 0-3 start though.
# 11 is obviously fast! But, that’s not quite run down from behind! Credit 11 for sticking with it but he was near hash and Gee was on sideline. So he did have a bit of an angle! 3 more steps and he probably would’ve fell right in behind him and stayed there! But great play by 11. Good hard fought win by Shelby!
Heck of ball game. 2017 was as well.
Its a shame the state does not let the media televise these games, i would love to re watch the games over the years... The ktc broadcasting group does a great job in their area covering regular season games, wish we could see playoffs too!!
Gee absolutely was the fastest player on the field, period, I’ve seen his 100m times in track, but for one game, and one play, he was ran down, but yeah, at a slight angle. No. 11 is a freshman corner at Western Carolina now.
