Salisbury vs South Rowan
- Thread starter Vik-Val 86
- Start date
In JVs 2-4 South Rowan will take on 1-6 Salisbury. I actually wouldn’t mind seeing this one since the game will be at South Rowan. Been awhile since I been to that Stadium.
Not surprised that Salisbury won but I was surprised at the score. Salisbury 42 South Rowan 7

I wasn’t, Salisbury isn’t that bad, South is terrible. South first three game were against cupcakes, two games were against academy schools.
No longer playing in a 1A/2A conference with 1000 kids like they have the last 8 years. That is what happened. Now lining up with schools the same size and look at what has happened. Scheduling is huge folks.
Pre season they were one of the 4 teams picked to win the SPC.
2010 was the year that Thomasville handed Salisbury the conference championship at their place. Down 10-7, Thomasville moved the ball down the field to the Salisbury two. With seconds to go, the Bulldog quarterback was trying to run one more play with no timeouts. He rushed to the line and looked to the sideline for the down marker, which showed third down. In a heady play, he successfully spiked the ball.
The only problem was that the Salisbury chain gang had neglected to change the down marker and it had been fourth down. Game over. Would they have scored? Never know? With a 12-1 record instead of 11-2, the game with Carver, a 35-28 loss, would have been at home instead of on the road. Would they have won that one at home? Who knows? Would Salisbury have been in the championship game, while playing on the road?
All speculation, but just illustrates how games can turn on the smallest things.
