No you aren't. Aces need to show up in Tarboro in their cleanest jerseys.Predictions? I’m hoping N Stanly will give us a good game.

Goob you gonna get everybody riled up against us talking like that.Holmes 55
N Stanly 0
Goob you gonna get everybody riled up against us talking like that.
Let’s take it a game at a time and try to get past N. Stanly first. Anyone know what offense they run?
Well that settles that.I'm just stating what I think everyone knows but won't say. I have said this before, I have seen both Edenton and Tarboro play this yr and as a gambling man my money is on Holmes to win the east. I haven't seen anyone from the west so I will not comment on whether I think Edenton can win it all. For those that don't know please don't associate my fellow posters from Edenton with me. I am a diehard Northeastern Eagle and my thoughts whether crazy or not should not reflect on them. Stanley will run for 150 plus on that Tarboro defense and carry Holmes to a 10+ win this yr. I'm the only one calling for this upset and I will put my 98% prediction accuracy rating on the line,lol!!
I’m trying to remember the last time any RB ran the ball for 100 yards on Tarboro. Can’t do it.I'm just stating what I think everyone knows but won't say.

Todd Gurley in practiceI’m trying to remember the last time any RB ran the ball for 100 yards on Tarboro. Can’t do it.
In the 2017 Eastern Finals game Maxpreps has Kemion Bailey with 126 yards and Mitjonta Stanley with 66.I’m trying to remember the last time any RB ran the ball for 100 yards on Tarboro. Can’t do it.
Ah, OK. I remember Holmes moved the ball a bit that night, but those yards were wasted by turnovers. I recall our DE Massenburg had that option so well scouted that it gave the Aces QB fits all night.In the 2017 Eastern Finals game Maxpreps has Kemion Bailey with 126 yards and Mitjonta Stanley with 66.
The tall lanky DE, the one I think you are talking about, disrupted us on the edge all night long and the turnovers did not help our cause.Ah, OK.

Yep he was only a sophomore that night. Hope he has it well scouted again this year if we play hahaThe tall lanky DE, the one I think you are talking about, disrupted us on the edge all night long and the turnovers did not help our cause.
Did not realize or forgot he was just a sophomore that year.Yep he was only a sophomore that night. Hope he has it well scouted again this year if we play haha
That's correct. He's still here...Did not realize or forgot he was just a sophomore that year.
Griddle are you from the Stanly County areaNot even close to what Tarboro played last year and the Vikings even played them without CJ Clark. They have a good team this year and are well coached but I'm going with Holmes by 21 in this one.
Thanks for your input. It is nice playing teams you normally don’t play but there is always the unknown factor for both teams.I am from Stanly County and don’t think this game will be close.Holmes by at least 4 touchdowns.
Yeah no need to overhype this game - Holmes big.

My bad. I was thinking this was saying Holmes over Tarboro by 21.
I think Tarboro folks have been waiting for that "close game" from Holmes the last two seasons and we are still waiting. I'm not saying the Aces aren't legit. They are the only school East of I-95 not named Tarboro that's still undefeated. But I think the Aces fans will tell you the only game they played all year that could be considered a barometer for their season was against the Eagles, and this Northeastern team is a step down from their last couple of seasons. North Stanly may not have the elite athletes they had last year, but their defensive scheme was quite good last year in that 20-0 loss to the Vikings. I think the Aces will get their best look at Tarboro in a while, but they want to get two wins and not get anyone injured. After that...let the games begin!Hey TarVikes the Holmes fans aren't predicting a win just for the record. I think they'll be happy with a close loss tbh. I'm a Northeastern guy and I'm not shying away from my statement. To answer your question Defense and a drastically improved Mitjona Stanley. Maybe I'm wrong with my prediction but I've been very accurate over the last couple of years.

Just curious. What separates this years Holmes team from the last two teams?
Its gotta be something significant to not only be able to flip a 41pt deficit from last year - but to then turn around and win by double digits, because Tarboro hasn’t fallen off that much from last year.
To me there are two things. One our defense is playing the best I have seen it play in six or seven years. Two, we finally have some decent size, at least by our standards.Just curious. What separates this years Holmes team from the last two teams?
