"like no one ever has" MA beat them by 13 & 18 points. I wouldn't say that was "shutting them down", well unless they shut you down too? Shutting down is like losing 42-7.
Look at the freakin yards MA held them to!! That's shutting them down!

And MA lost (badly) every hard game! You may have played a tough schedule, but you won the games you were supposed to and lost the ones that everyone realistically knew you would. I know you'll have excuses and say that the team wasn't healthy, but that's part of the game.

I guess that’s my point. We won’t really know about the until the east or shelby match up

Mount Airy is the #2 seed playing the #1 hardest schedule in 3A SOS! So wth you talking about with this reality BS. MA has held their own. I don't get the disrespect bc I assure you none has been thrown form us at Shelby. We get the strong tradition at Shelby and respect it. MA losing their best receiver will hurt.

The truth is swiftly on it's way

Who told you that MA played the hardest schedule in 3A? Just curious as it's not MaxPreps or Brian Simmons. Is this just another "fact" that MA fans made up?

You need to go back and look at stats no it all. When you hold a team that rushes for 500 yards a game to a total of 65 yards and no first downs in the second half that is shutting them down. Shutting them down has to do with their offense and scoring a bunch. Football IQ on here is really lacking. That is why tarboro gets a ton of respect cause their fans and even coach craddock understands good teams.

IQ in general is lacking. Let me point out a couple of things for you. "Shutting a team down" quote is an opinion. That has nothing to do with football IQ. If team A beats team B by 21, you may think you "shut them down", while my opinion of shutting down is winning by 28+. Second, I asked if MA "shut them down" is it fair to say that Tarboro shut down MA too? Yes or No? Maybe it was just two good teams playing that year and they both kind of shut each other down?

Also, one of the almighty MA fans stated "like no one ever has". Tarboro has been shut down a lot worse by other teams than the almighty MA. East Surry beat them worse & Havelock beat them worse. That's not a dig on Tarboro, but more to point out MA is just delusional as they think they are gods gift to football.

Tarboro players, coaches and fans are respected because they aren't posting stupid crap on a forum day in and day out.

*I never said MA didn't have good teams the years they won.

I'll also ask you for the stats "know" it all. What did MA put up that game vs their regular season stats? I'm sure they didn't put up the stats against Tarboro, that they did against the mighty schedule they played. You normally don't put up the same stats against good teams! Football IQ sure is lacking there, buddy.

Hopefully Thomasville
I did some research on MA vs Thomasville last night, and this is what I found. Mount Airy was more competitive after 2009.

From 2009 to 2014, they played as non-conference games. All 1A
2009 Mount Airy Win 28 Thomasville 21
2010 Mount Airy Lost 14 Thomasville 21
2011 Mount Airy Win 23 Thomasville 7
2012 Mount Airy Win 21 Thomasville 14
2013 Mount Airy Lost 7 Thomasville 14
2014 Mount Airy Win 22 Thomasville 8

Playoff game 4, the Bears loses.
1987 Mount Airy lost to Thomasville 0-28, Maybe 2A
1992 Mount Airy lost to Thomasville 0-46, Maybe 2A
1999 Mount Airy lost to Thomasville 14-28 , Maybe 2A
2006 Mount Airy lost to Thomasville 7-35 Not sure

Whoa wait a minute... A non-Shelby fan rolls up in here, gets the meathead Mt Airy panties so far in a bunch they start talking junk about what they could do to Shelby..

Then one of those goons wants to compare their scores with Tarboro saying we haven't played a team like that... Get the bong water, ferminted hops and meth bugs out from that region where the brain belongs... If we get the opportunity to play the Granite Bears they aint stopping Shelby, not a chance no how no way.... Now Martin will get his yards but we blow that team off the field and leave there with your girlfriends, your pride and the Pork Chop (Which is actually breaded spam) sammich

I said it months and months ago.... Once Mt Airy got moved to 3a their days of dominating title runs was over... I know it Chopper knows it, goober and Aunt Bea herself knows it...

Mt Airy wants no part of Shelby.... You all just think you do...If we both dont take care of business we wont meet anyway

Is vaping a Shelby varsity sport? Just asking.

And by how much and how did Shelby beat Burns? I cannot remember.

Did Burns rush for 400 yards on the vaulted Shelby defense and score 30 plus points?
Again, just asking for clarification as to how dominate Shelby defense really is.

Guys, before you started the belittle of Mt Airy, NO ONE from Mt Airy said anything but good things about Shelby. You might want to understand, this might be a "box" you do not want to open.
I remember you! You are the douche canoe that wants to make everyone aware how much you help this team and by giving some award or something.. no one cares , youre the typical snake oil salesmen.. No one cares Gomer.... Then you try to talk a little junk about Shelby kids with the vaping comment then turn around at the end and try act like you just didnt...

I just opened the box by kicking it open.... Clown

Well you can say little junior high teams all you want but I guarantee you that you will not once you come to the granite city. We play Tarboro over the last few years and i guarantee you are not tougher and better than them and ask them we shut them down like no one ever has and guess what the same players that did that are now seniors so come on up and take your shot. You may very well beat us but you will know we were there. Better worry about what is in front of you first and don’t worry about the little Bears. lol. How did you lose 3 games this year thought that might Shelby name would scare everyone and you would be undefeated……not
Kid, get off the computer and get to class....

I really tried to read this, I promise I did, but all I could see was some dude in the library in study hall, switching between those "non-approved" sites and here pitching a fit like this

They beat a good Draughn team 35-0 just to name 1. Your delusional to say they didnt put points up against good teams. In last game against Tarboro MA held them to 67 total yards and MA had 337 yards .....to me that is shutting a team down. Tarb hasn't ever been shut down like that to my knowledge. Score was 21-3. Not sure you know knowledge of the game Leroy! Your saying MA hasn't scored against good opponent's is dumb.

TD, Thomasville started playing Mount Airy as early as 1927, and played ten times from 1927-1991. We were 2-8 against you guys during that time.
Sorry my research seemed to drop off some after 1987 and I stopped and went to bed. Thank you for your input. I had it Thomasville 6 to 4 games when I gave up, but I think after 1987, down to the 1960s I found no games they played or missed something. Can you fill us in on those years and scores between 1927-1991 ? I will see what else I can find also.

They played schools there size in the past for the exception of Robbinsville!
MA the last 2 state championship runs played schools with 509-623-620-711 and MA had 577 in 22 and 614 in 23. So pretty much already playing teams there size. This year every school they have played were close to same size adm or more. Most schools a lot more and still 2 seed and 8-2. So stop with the stupid stuff.

Yes they held MA to less than normal yards but MA still had over 200 one game and 300 last game. To hold Tarb to 67 total yards is freaking shutting a team down but hell you the football genius!

MA still put up good stats as Tarb were held to prob lowest points and yardage in 10+ years!
