Football Western Foothills 4A/5A - 2nd round
- Thread starter Flyrod
- Start date
I’m interested to see how we deal with the Bandys QB. From the film I have seen and by everyone I hear from he is a handful.
@Stormsurge1 How athletic is your d line and LBs? Can yours DBs cover over 5 seconds?
Our D Line is very athletic in my opinion. LB’s are very sold again in my opinion. We have 18 ints on the year so we have been good ball hawks. However other than Farmer (Shelby) and Lynch (Lincolnton), I don’t think we have seen a QB like this.
Cramer will need to control possession time and score to defeat Bandys. Hendersonville is very explosive on offense.

We are definitely going to try and control the time of possession. Of course we try to do that against everyone.
LOL, him without a shirt could be a Maiden thing. Recall an article in the Whiteville News Reporter, about the Undefeated Tabor City Red Devils coming to Maiden in 1978, for the 2A state championship game, which The Blue Devils would win 36-14 (I think)…The writer made mention of “Coach Tom Brown, pacing the sidelines in shorts, on a bitterly cold Catawba County night.” Some of these Maiden guys, including amaidendevil,and maybe GrizzlyDevil had played for him, so he might have explained to them that they shouldn’t worry about the cold Temps… I distinctly remember that night. I was working and had a small cube-shaped radio with no antenna, trying to pick up bits and pieces of the game from WNNC Newton Radio station. The temperature was actually in the 20’s during the game, possibly even in the low 20’s, and was maybe even windy. Also talked with someone from Tabor City who had made the 200 mile drive and was staying at one of the hotels, here in Lincolnton. He was very disappointed, but said, “They were the better team.” Also, I believe, Division 1 College coach, Kevin Wilson was playing for Maiden, in that game.
Tom brown loved his old school blue gym shorts. The kind u would see pe teachers wear in 80's movies
. It would take a hell of a cold night even in his old age to make him wear pants. He was instilling toughness into players by example.
Piss and vinegar!! If you met us in person you would laugh even harder. Absolute bunch of fools. The last time I watched a game with a few of those guys my stomach was sore from laughing so hard. Never a dull moment.Lol no our thread is mostly fun and bantery'all's thread is a pissing contest
Lets do this
Bandys- I feel they got the edge and momentum. Be a tight game, could go either way but i'll go with it
East Lincoln- just general common sense on this pick. 10 points maybe
Newton- just too strong but Foard should have a decent game for a bit
Hickory- ok game but Hickory by 2 TDS
Maiden- NSurry had some competition but some not. Maiden too tested and will walk away with not an easy one but a win
Pisgah- on edge with this but I think the mtn boys might have something. Down to the wire mark it down
Lincolnton- Dont let me down. A good game here. Alot of good games this week that could go either way. Down to the wire in this one.
Burkes Get em's : Come on guys, SEPERATE column but jump in. I'm taking these Only if its close match and anyones game. Not putting Watauga up yet maybe next week. Common sense says they got Saint Stephens in a rematch. Hibriten will take care of RS, i'll wait on them too.
Freedom over Central Cabbarus- Slightly tougher schedule for Naterone Means' old school/ Freedom not faired well with Cabbarrus co schools this could get interesting. I'll take Freedom in a nail biter.
Ashbrook over Statesville- upset potential for the Greyhounds, interesting game and very well could be after looking at both schedules and size and athletes on both sides of the ball for both these guys. Ashbrook on paper ill go with it but what ya'll think.
East Rutherford over Shelby- I think these boys got the hot hand right now. Down to the wire for sure.

Swett looks to be the real deal on tape. Hope we can compete. Having the best player on the field at the most important position is always a plus. Should be funBandys by 14

For sure it’s gonna be a great game
We are looking forward to it. First time playoffs for all of our kids.
Beating a depleted Lincolnton team that week made people doubt whether Cramer was for real. They have a solid team. They lost to Burns by 14 and Shelby by more. This is the ultimate time for SC to prove they are for real. Can they win? Absolutely! Bandys is going to be very tough. If SC wins, they will have peoples attention quick. They pass the eye test. Those boys are huge!
Cramer and Bandys just need to beat the pulp out of each other so they are in good shape for the following week. 
Another thing to worry about. Coaches can't let the lights get too bright.
Our lighting isn’t that good anyway…..but seriously coming into the season there wasn’t many expectations…I mean guy at WL working concessions said all we heard with the new conference is Cramer is awful (up until this year he was right)….basically I am saying our kids should be loose because they are playing with house money and reading most of the posts about them on here most everyone else feels that way too….I believe in our coach, he is something special and will have them prepared to win…whether or not they do, we will see Friday
@amaidendevil making pictures for crosstown team. Love it. Enemies can be friends at times
Honest question….you think that is the case or he would rather see you guys again down the road instead of Hibriton or Cramer?
I don’t say that as a slight against Bandys, I was just saying playing the known instead of the unknown.
I doubt @amaidendevil pulls for anyone but the Boom devils.. he knows that QB is scary for bandys and that's probably why he would pick the trojans to win the game. No doubt about that.
I'm not too sure he would want to see him again, although Maiden has beaten Bandys with him at QB 3 years in a row.

I'd probably rather play cramer. Our conference is superior conference to cramers. All our teams are more dangerous. Foard and cramer might be a close game
I agree Hickory and East Lincoln are superior….no arguments hereI'd probably rather play cramer. Our conference is superior conference to cramers. All our teams are more dangerous. Foard and cramer might be a close game
This is not a typical Stuart Cramer team, weaker conference or not. Not saying they will beat Bandy's but they have nothing to lose and everything to gain and the pipeline is building for them.
11 deep on both sides of the ball they can play with anyone. Depth is the issue. They are big and physical and I expect it to be a really good game.

What’s the gif when their defense hits the field?
When bandy's offense hits the field
Wouldn’t it been neat if we could of have the weather this Friday like we are having now. Cold and blustery. Even seen some snow flurries. But it supposed to warm up nice by the weekend.
I’m starting to think Cramer might have an issue with amaidendevil…..obsessed
Nope just see the weakness behind the curtain. And bandy's will smell the fear Friday night.
Stuart Cramer football 2013-2024 I think you might be right…..
Stuart Cramer football 2025 and beyond “The new biggest little football town in the world”
A little research Total regular season record of cramer opponents 39-62. 3 regular season opponents with winning records 1-3 against them with Lincolnton being a disappointment. 3 wins against 1 win teams, 1 win against 2 win team and 1 win against 3 win team. 2 wins against .500 teams.
Aww y'all inspire to imitate greatness but u might wanna schedule some competition for non conference first.
Hard to play 3 teams with winning records and be 1-3 against them, but your math does confuse most of the people on this thread
