The Knights rushed for over 600 yds tonight.
Anderson had 180 yds by halftime
Was the Gap that much improved, or is Robbinsville struggling some on defense? Not trying to talk trash, just curious. 600 yards rushing is ridiculous btw. That is some high powered ground n pound right there!

We was up by 14 alot of time. We was going to go up by 21 and had to settle for a FG. After a flag we had a longer fg which we missed. Once or twice we was going up by 21 but fumbled. Passing D isnt our thing i guess. we wont see any big WRs
Like Erwin, Rabun, and Life.

Impressive game by the young man. Impressive game by the entire Robbinsville backfield. Impressive game by the Robbinsville offensive line.

SMC conference play is going to be brutal this year. Not that it isn't most years but this year should be really fun. At this point I dont know who I would have as a favorite. The big three each have impressive wins so far. I would rank Murphy defense at the top. Robbinsville offensive at the top. And who knows maybe Swain overall the most consistent on both sides.

Good luck to all.

Go Mountaineers

Like sands through the hour glass, these are the posts of our lives.......we can count on popping up as soon as BK knows there’s a Rville player to crow about. Lol.
BK actually didn't come up with the post..he's only quoting what the Asheville Citizens Times had to say about Hooper in their players of the week article last night.

I would feel a lot better about our 600+ yards of rushing if we hadn't given up 48 points to the opposing team. If we don't do something about our defense, we will finish 3rd in the conference. Simply giving up too much.

Ive said all year uf our D is better we will have a good chance but I didnt think we would be better replacing 6 on D.
I honestly think this years linebackers Anderson and Hooper are better or will be better than last years. Rab was never a consistent starter and both Defensive Ends we have this year are much better than him..He would not have started if he had played. .Garland had a very strong game last night at DE..We definitely miss Phillips at free safety and Lovin on the line.

Is this Robbinsville's first player in program history to eclipse 300 rushing yards or just the first time it's been done so far this season?

I think Cruz had a 300+ yard night in the 2014 season. I’m not 100% sure but I think he did. I’m getting old but for some reason I’m thinking 336 that night. He may have had 385 against east Henderson the year before that as well. Help me out somebody !

I think Robbinsville has a lot of young players that can step up and help on D. Still got a lot of football to play...
