Projected #1 and #2 seeds in east clashing on Friday night. With the history between these two teams, this one might be interesting. I’m picking ED 28-7.
Clinton @ East Duplin
- Thread starter iMowLawnCare
- Start date
I could be wrong, but I think it will be much closer. Both teams seem to be playing very well recently. Both had close games with Wallace-Rose Hill. East Duplin's only blemish is to a very good Jacksonville team while Clinton lost to a one loss Midway squad and undefeated Whiteville.
Appears the winner will win the conference championship and should be the #1 seed in 4A East assuming they win out.
Might try and make this one myself.

#1 and #4 will be in same bracket, #2 and #3 in same bracket.
Reidsville will be hurt by their last two opponents records. TWA will probably move to #2 this week by jumping over the loser of Clinton/ED. Winner of Clinton/ED probably locks up #1 seed in East as both will be big favorites in their last two games. Loser drops to #3/#5 range.
I would keep an eye on SW Edgecombe and West Craven. Big matchup next week between the two. If West Craven wins and then beats Eastern Wayne in their last game, they will make a big move up and could claim that #4 seed, possibly the #3. I think West Craven wins out.

West Craven winning out would make these playoff predictions look completely different.
The only one who could ever reach me….was the son of a pizza man!
To honest I didn't think this ED team was going to be that good. ED started 8 sophomores and playing 10 against Wallace game one. Those sophomores have come a long ways and really playing well. Seniors are leading the way as they should. Lost some guys week one to injuries. Starting to get some back and some more coming by playoffs that will be a huge help. My opinion this is one of Battles best coaching jobs. No score prediction but I think ED wins Friday and only gets better moving forward.
That does bid well for the future. Without looking at our roster I’m sure we have 6 sophomores and possibly more playing. Our Qb is a Sophmore. Funny thing is in the past when we had that many it killed our JV team but this year we still have plenty on JV and they may win the conference. So I know how you feel about that. It is encouraging.
Good luck Ottis I believe there's a good chance our teams see each other before this is all over
I appreciate what you are doing with your site and podcast. Bringing attention to all the area schools that was much needed. Ive watched from the start and think you are just getting better as time goes on. Keep up the good work.
Appreciate that. I wish I could do more. It will get better once I get back stateside
I certainly hope we do! I think it will be a game to remember!
