My guess on the winning teams each Friday got just a little better the last three weeks but all in all this has been a difficult season to pick Big East games. The non-conference games I was 18-6. Conference games I finished up 16-8 so I head to the playoffs 34-14 for the season. We will begin the playoff look at a Big East conference game.
Southern Nash @ Northern Nash: They played just three weeks ago against each other at Northern with the Knights winning 21-7. Northern was just as quick as Southern when they tried to get outside. I don't think Northern has slowed down any to the outside so the Firebirds will find running just as hard as last time. 21-7 was good last time and it looks good again.
Nash Central @ West Carteret: Nash Central's reward for getting the third seed from the Big East is a 100 mile ride to Morehead City to play West Carteret. The Patriots finished in a three way tie for first in the Coastal and sport an 8-3 record. The question mark in this game is, is the Big East a power in football this year or no not this year. If they are a power the Bulldogs win if not basketball is Monday. Nash Central 26 West Carteret 21
SouthWest Edgecombe @ Beddingfield If there is one coach in the playoffs who has a right to say how did this happen it is Raymond Cobb. During the regular season SWE beat Beddingfield 14-0 during the conference play and Kinston, SWE and Beddingfield all tied for second the the league. During the seeding drawing Beddingfield won ahead of SWE so in the playoffs they are seeded in their POD 4/5. Beddingfield is the home team even though they lost head to head with the Cougars. I think Cobb has used every ounce of his coaching ability selling is team on the idea that every body is against them. SWE 22 Beddingfield 7
Pasquotank @ Tarboro: Pasquotank is 6-5 on the year and are the 2-A team in that 3-A/2-A Northeastern Coastal league . They may be better than their record but Tarboro is better. Tarboro 35 Pasquotank 13.
Kipp-Pride @ North Edgecombe: Here we go with another conference game. Already this year the Warriors won 38-6 at Pride during the regular season. Who would think playing at North Edgecombe it will be any closer this time. North Edgecombe 40 Kipp- Pride 6
D H Conley @ Hunt: Now let's look at this one. Early in the year Conley lost by a 55-32 score at Fike. Fike wasn't close in any game against the playoff teams from the Big East, why then is this one going to be close? Hunt 35- D H Conley 13
I would suspect a big crowd at Northern you had better be there by 7.00pm
