One can hope. Either way still have to win out to get conference title. If dogs beat tigers this Friday we would still have to beat them to avoid a 3 way tie which means they would draw straws and Clinton would most certainly get shaft on that deal......oh dogs have to win out for that to be possible. Can’t beat Jk then lose to ED.
No ties, championship game at Dark Horse Stadium

Stadium holds 3k seated. So your saying less than seated capacity, interesting.

I thought the attendance would have been more at the CHS/WRH game. CHS side was pretty good but the WRH side didn't have many. I guess being on Saturday night didn't help.

I thought WRH brought a good crowd, Clinton’s was a little more sparse than usual because band was at a competition and parents were with them and helpers etc. We had a bigger crowd for Homecoming which was shocking because it was against Spring Creek but there weren’t any seats on home side that is. SC brought 4 people.

From our point of view the Clinton side looked to be around 3/4 empty.

Was a smaller crowd than I expected from both teams, but stadium as large as it is, easy to look less full than some other places. Was definitely more packed for homecoming.

Yeah I didn’t be mean that in a bad way. Just from our side it looked thin over on the Clinton side compared to what I’m used to from y'alls fans. I know y’all usually have a very solid showing.

A buddy and I were discussing how seems like WRH fans cheer more at away games than they do at home. He said “because the ones that go to the away games are the real fans of the team”. Very interesting point

I agree with the away game point.....but i did miss one game this year when we traveled to Goldsboro but that was because of a situation at work(Prison) didnt get off till 6:30 so i just listened to the game that night......ill definitely be at East Duplin Friday evening Lord willing

hasn't been a lot said on this game the last 2 days guessing because of the lack of ED posters active on the site......suppose to be some nasty weather tomorrow haven't heard anything about it being moved....so its going be wet out holding on to the ball will be key.....think this may end up being a wet sloppy 3 yards and a splash of mud type game

04 see if you can't ring some bells and ask the PA get fixed for next week and hopefully future weeks. I've been to high scholols that the PA sounds like college deep loud sounds .Our place sounds like a crackerbox or something and we have good people doing the voice and music. Last week with the band at a competition you could barely hear at times the school chorus recording of our national anthem.

Wiz, I have ZERO pull on anything like that. I know it has been noted by powers at be that PA is hurting for some TLC, now whether it’s been worked on yet or will be before JK, I don’t know at this time.

Despite the threat of nasty weather looking forward to making the trip to ED tonight.....my advice for the boys is to play with that same fire you played with last Saturday night.....RBs hold on the ball games like this in nasty weather turnovers and field position are huge.....defense fly to ball make plays stop #8.....Coaches just dont overthink it dont get too cute.....all in all if we play our game we will come out on top i really believe that.......and For the love of God please be ready for that dang fullback trap.....i swear doesnt matter how good ED is or bad ED is they always always catch us with that play going back to when i played.....Coach Sawvel would let us hear about it in film on Monday......"Simple fullback trap we get gashed 30 yards"- In my Coach Sawvel voice lol

ED must think the bad weather is going to be an advantage for them. Hopefully there is no lightning to make it a drawn out affair. Radar looking bad.

One reason the Clinton side had fewer fans was the band was away at a band competition. Of course, you can count the band members themselves and the band has quite a following
