Central will dominate til they run into the heavyweights of their conference. Central has some of the quickest backs I have seen play at wise in some time. As for Eastside I think scoring points won’t be a problem for them they were one of the best offenses around here last year and could be this year with the athletes they have. but it doesn’t matter if your defense can’t stop anybody.
Burton goes for two late in the 4th to go up by 1 after a Ridgeview turnover. Raiders start out 1-0. Adkins has over 200 yards but Ridgeview will be suspect to Burton’s speed on the outside.
From what my nephew is saying they still have one of the top QBs in the region and two more boys from the basketball team at receiver again this year over 6"2
I've seen both teams once this year, if eastside can't contain the hurley qb this could be a wild one. On the other hand I don't know if Hurley has the athletes to match up against them in the passing game.
One of the more low flying matchups this week. Will Hurley come to Wise county and take care of business or will Eastside get another shot at Chilhowie?
Definitely a log jam for sure 3-7 in 1A. Don't know how that's going to play out. Is a Thomas Walker team going to lose to three Cumberland opponents and make the playoffs? Assuming they lose to Burton.
