Do you really believe this or are you just running off at the mouth now?

I think Shelby will beat Hibriten, but I would never say Hibriten "can't" beat Shelby. Anything can happen in high school football.
Once again you only quoted half the sentence

If Hibriten doesn't self inflict, they win, period!

I disagree. Shelby had no chance vs South Pointe and Chase had no chance against Shelby

Wow a useless comparison. we played NC early in the year and i already said we had a ton of mistakes.

No, it isn't a useless comparison. It is the one common opponent. And Hibriten played NC the same time Shelby was playing Crest and KM, the games Gregg is using to judge Shelby by.

And yes, Hibriten had a ton of mistakes. Hibriten also had a ton of mistakes against Franklin but Franklin didn't capitalize on them like a good Shelby team will.

But who'd they lose to, JM Robinson, a team Hibriten beat 33-6..........
But you wanna say Apple's and oranges

Yes, because Shelby didn't play Robinson. They just scrimmaged them. It isn't a common opponent.

NC is though. If Hibriten had played KM, we could then include them in such a conversation.

Franklin couldnt capitalize! Our defense was in beast mode. Kind of like Mt. pleasant. It took a fake punt to set up 1 td. Malik also twisted his ankle and you want to annoint Shelby? Haha

I really think Malik will have a long night. High ankle sprains don't go away too soon. You know Mackie will those boys all after him

Yes, you said Shelby can't beat Hibriten, only Hibriten can beat themselves. So you really believe there is no way Shelby can beat Hibriten unless Hibriten self-implodes?
If Hibriten has a even or better turnover ratio they win, simple as that. Now with a healthy Malik that confidence ratio would be a tad lower to toss up

I'm not anointing Shelby anything. I'm not sure Shelby can win the state this year. I do think though they will beat Hibriten. Shelby isn't Franklin. And they sure aren't Newton-Conover either or any of the other teams you have set and watched Hibriten play. if Hibriten makes the mistakes against Shelby that they did against Franklin or NC, it will be a long night for Hibriten.

I just hope for 2 things to happen pre game. 30 degrees is the first. Shelby to si g that same song Franklin did. They were in the end zone singing "we ready, we ready, we ready for ya'll. Big mistake

If and buts were candy and nuts. Turnovers kill all teams momentum. That cab go both ways. Our team knows already that they have to play great to win. Shelby is no joke but we have a great team also that has the talent to win it all this year.

Just curious since you always put if Hibriten makes mistakes it will be a long night... Let’s say Hibriten is +3 in the turnover battle, returns 1 of those for a TD and commits no penalties what is your prediction then??

I'd love to stay here and argue with Mr. Less than a Nickel but I gotta get up at 4 am and go to work in the morning. At least those Shelby people i work with are a little more worried than Mr. Not a nickel.
I was told today that once the games started they're concerned that qb's tweaked ankle could stiffen if pressured . I assured them, Mackie will send 'em from all angles.

If all of this happens, then it will be a close game and Hibriten could win.

Everywhere people take football serious. Keeping score in a scrim is pitiful

No, they don't. There are plenty of places where high school football is not taken that seriously.

Again, high school football is a big deal in Cleveland County. So I am not surprised at all they keep score in a scrimmage. It actually isn't that uncommon where football is important.

In a way I kind of hope Malik is fine to eliminate excuses. But I am sure 2 cents will find a dozen more.

I hope he is fine too. Pretty sad that Gregg is hoping a high school kid's ankle will give the game to Hibriten. He seems to be really butthurt about Shelby for some reason. One wonders if he prefers Crest down there in Cleveland County.

As for excuses, you won't hear any from me Tire. If Hibriten wins, I'll tip my hat to them.

Hibriten D is like a Mexican restraunt. The smell gets on you before you ever sit down,,,, it stays on you throughout the meal,,,, and is still on you hours after the meal. Translate this into football and you have the Panther defense.

Ever smelled a spanish lion?? Come Friday night it will be in the air!

You dumba## , I was stating an injured players affect on the game, the same as I would Greg Olsen's injury hampers the panthers. I do not wish anyone to be injured and for you to insinuate that proves you're just a ##@@@@@@@##@@!!!!!

I think I am leaning more to 27-7 Hibriten now. Maybe even 27-14 if Hibriten makes mistakes. Past championships will not matter nor will who we both played or who they played. I am thankful that you all beat South Point. I would rather our guys play at home and I hope for cold weather. The Franklin fans were talking about how cold it was here. I thought they were mountain folks.

Greg Olsen's a grown man. You are the one going on and on about a high school kid's injury and talking about how Hibriten should key on that. Sounds like you are hoping Hibriten takes him out.

My final prediction is and let me clarify for Mr. Notworthanickel

If Malik is mobile with his ankle= toss up
If Malik's ankle stiffens= advantage Hibriten

And 2 cents, that was what I meant since I have to educate you now..... good night

How many games has Hibriten had where they didn't have any penalties? I honestly don't know btw, that is why I am asking.
I have all the newspapers so I will give you the exact number in a bit. I seen someone on a early post talkimg about Newton and the amount of fumbles. we fumbled 4 times and lost 4. I thought it was five, sorry.

It can just as easy as Hibriten making all the mistakes
So you're a high school football coach playing for the right to go to the state championship. The opposing QB has a gympy ankle. So what do you do, tell your defense not rush the QB? Get real man and stop acting like you're stupid. You damn right I'd get after their QB. I wouldn't say hit his ankle but I'd make him run for his life and put his butt in the dirt as much as possible. It's football, it's the game

None and I’m sure they will have some penalties this game but there also is the possibility that Shelby makes some mistakes and I wanted to see your opinion if that happened is all
