Pisgah @E. Rutherford

I knew if anybody was going to beat them it would be King's Mountain, a lot of noise in 3a coming from there this year. I don't expect Shelby to loose another game this year.
Shelby won't lose again... Burns might give them a scare, especially after Shelby was upset by Burns last year. But Shelby is way too good to let that happen again this year...

I would say a definite no to Shelby, South Point probably I don't know much about Burns so that's a IDK.
I've watched Burns twice this year, against Crest & tonight against Newton Conover. Burns is for real.. Fast, swarming defense and an All-State type RB..

If not for two turnovers deep in our own territory we would’ve shut them out, things got hairy beginning of the 3rd quarter but then we scored 27 unanswered points after that. I expected to win but expected more of a fight from the Red Devils.

Will ER be able to compete with Shelby, South Point & Burns in conference?
Shelby will skunk ER. South Point is down this year but they should still beat them. Folks are sleeping on Burns.. they will be right there in the thick of it come playoff time. They have some special playmakers.

Owen 98, the fact your talking about our team more than yours makes you fan. Welcome to The Nation!
How many points did y'all score tonight? Would that be 0000000

Looks like you're a fan of ole 98. Sorry bud I dont swing that way. Funny how you have me on your mind all the time.
 
I will say that East Rutherford always seems to have the right “ingredients” to make a deep run but never seem to get it all together. I don’t know why but have always scratched my head wondering where the disconnect is. It looks as if they have went from the Wing T under Coach Cash to a more spread type offense since Pisgah last faced them. And yes, I do recall East having a great kicker in ‘05 as well as a good QB, I think his last name was Lowrance?

er is what it is. you cant ever expect much but every now and again something will happen and we may win a few games. i met jerry cash a time or two but never met this bland fella. bland appears to what to throw it more than cash ever thought about it but the plays are predictable. best athlete on the field is the jones kid and they dont hide him or disguise anything. just line up and run it and if it won't work then try it again and hope for a different result. i sat on pisgahs side last night and the coaches were screamin the plays out just by looking at the formation. half the battle lost there. it is what it is thought. dont expect much and youll never be disappointed with rutherford county football.

lowrance was a qb by the way. bostic was the k.

Yes I think so. We covered the receivers pretty well and didn’t give up anything long. Gave line and LBs time to get into the backfield. We got a little more speed on defense then you would think by looking at us. That and knowing their responsibilities is a big factor.
How was their running game?

Running game is just hard to judge because Heritage is so tough to run against. Had a couple of 10-12 yard runs on QB draws but that’s about it. RB would get some 4-6 yard carries at times. I think only 156 yards or so total including passing.

Just guessing by y'all's roster and by what you've said and a few stats, the linebacker core is the beef of your defense and #1 will need a lot attention to keep in check on offense and defense.. Just a layman's perspective.

Yes #1 is good runner and receiver. LBs fast and hard hitting but line disrupts a lot of the plays. Secondary shut down Hendersonville passing game, so I would say they are pretty solid.

Who are the key defenders for Pisgah and is the Robinson kid back from his injury? He runs well.
 
Listen, these are my opinions. Clint Bland is a great guy. He is as good hearted as they come. There are times when I do question his decisions. Maybe that’s why I’m in the stands. I definitely feel there is a seat on the bus for him but I think his current position is not the right seat. Too much talent every year is not utilized the way it should be. I’ve seen teams with less talent beat ER simply because Bland was outcoached.
I will never forget 3 or 4 years ago up at East Bland has the lead and the ball with 1 minute to go. East has not thrown the ball all night but for some reason he decides to throw it . We pick it off and score the next play with 40 seconds left to seal the win. All he had to do was run out the clock ...lol.....

I just about puked in my mouth reading this. I knew that you would bring this back up sooner or later:pMan we had a darn good team. If I’m not mistaken that was 2014 and that was the year we lost in the first round to MT pleasant buy 1 point. Had a walk off field goal to win but it was missed. My son to this day will not talk about his last game of football in his life.

My bad Mopar you are one of my favorite poster but seriously any 10 year old playing madden would not have called that play.....East has always had the talent to keep up with any team. Best of luck the rest of the way bro .
