They said FH was most physical team they played . I said then they hadn’t played us yet. But people weren’t impressed with our wins in playoffs and said teams we played weren’t physical. Maybe just maybe those teams lions played weren’t really that physical to begin with.
Shelby vs Reidsville Western Championship
- Thread starter ReidsvilleRam90
- Start date
I'm not debating whos more physical. Just saying rams were the 4th best team Shelby played this year...giving them their 4th loss.
I don't believe that if Reidsville didn't have the injuries earlier they would not have had a close game. They started clicking when everyone came back. Receivers and secondary better than anyone
As a member of the 704 commission, I'm revoking Shelby's 704 card for such poor showing, especially on special teams. Sending ya'll out there with Pisgah at 828. Dont claim us..
Hickory has a top notch coach, forgot about him.
Shelby was softened up playing a bunch of below average 1a teams in their conference. Nothing gained or learned with those teams.

Congratulations to Shelby on a good playoff run. Nothing but love 4 ya. Ram seniors got payback for 2021.
Defense played amazing. Hats off to Shelby, they'll be back in the mix again next year for sure.
Yea if Reidsville played any of those teams early in season it would be bad. But now they would stand a chance I think.

Maybe you should have gone out there and guarded somebody. I seen you in action. You could do it
Not from me, I was talking smack... LOL
I said I think yesterday if Lee stood back there and had time it was over...
EXHIBIT A your honor , he sure enough did... Threw it all over us......
Congrats again , Good luck next week and someone please check on Hoey and make sure he has stopped crying from sheer happiness and tell him to enjoy.... ha ha

I respect you and your posts. Did not expect that . Really thought 35-28 either way.
Shelby just could not cover them all and Al Lee picked them apart with a 22 of 29 passing attack for 319 yards and 5 TDs. Neal caught 7 for 41 yards, Flippen 6-89, Jones 5-109 and Harrison 4-80. All super pass catchers. Cobb carried 11 times for 52 yards and Lee was also effective as a runner with 9 carries for 41 yards.
Johnniyus Sharpe had two interceptions and Kendre Harrison had two sacks to lead the defense and Paul Widerman had a bunch of tackles. Entire defense played probably its best game of the year since it was the regional final against a super opponent.
Two years ago, Shelby laid it on the Rams and their sophomore quarterback. This time Lee is an experienced senior and Shelby's quarterback is now the sophomore playing against a strong defense.

Come on man. That was a bully beat down. Ask some of those kids what they think.
Yea I just wonder where all the Shelby posters are that said we not physical and could and would not blow out a Shelby team. Those statements aren’t aging well.
Did I talk junk all week, yep sure did, everyone knows I do that
But I knew our weakness was our secondary, and all year long even in times they may have had perfect coverage the ball just seemed to land in the receivers hands... Knew the weapons yall had too... It was an up hill battle.... Tonight was just plain and simple domination and I am not afraid to admit it, I never am..... Plus I dont get all tore up over losses or other fans talking smack when we lose, its part of the fun.. I was having a good time listening two hours ago and I am having a good time now, too old to worry about a game...
I hate it for the seniors on our team, yes sir, but we will be HEAVY in the mix again next year....Its all good
Sometimes your the the bug hitting the windshield and tonight that windshield knocked the crap out of us....
LOL

Jesus Christ jabroni, give them all time to make the drive... LOL
Haha good point. I meant during game as well. 2 main ones ain’t said nothing all day.
The Shelby secondary was just too small to stand up to Reidsville's speed and size. When I saw they had to cover Jones (who is 6'4") man up I knew they were in for a long night. Impossible for any high school team to cover Harrison.
I was not surprised that the Rams lit up the scoreboard but I expected the Golden Lions to do more on offense. I had put the over and under at 90 points.
Rams have been on a roll since October - 41 or more points in every game and averaging 46.2 points a game in the playoffs. Before that, the Rams didn't blow out anybody - closed out September with a 34-18 win over McMichael.
Getting comfortable with the new coaching staff and a bunch of new starters and having everybody healthy turned it all around.

you know everybody gets better as the season goes on right... well Shelby didn't in the post season but still
Not that bad. In 21 I went to see y’all crush East Surry after beating us. Quick easy drive.
I've seen all these teams play. KM/AC/Crest defenses are deep and KM and AC running game would have wore your both way players down. Crest offense is a bigger, better, faster version of Hendersonville that the rams couldn't stop(same coach).
Be happy ya'll can dominate 2A. 3A field this year could have been decent in the 4A playoffs. You see Dudley didn't make it tonight.
Ive watched the horses several times this year, they are athletic, I just am not sure they can cover all those receivers....that #10 they have is like Harrison, freak ath;ete... Gonna be a good one....but to me personally yall are favroties right now
Yeah I want to say the rams take this one, but if Clinton manages the clock and plays defense it will be ED all over again.
Hoping the rams learn from last year, it's up to them now.
A Fonzanoon........you called me a Fonzanoon!!!!!! I haven't quit crying from that.
You see where that got us last year right lol but this rams team is for sure better than last year
