Friday night is the last night for Big East Teams before they jump into the conference frying pan in two weeks for Eastern Plains team conference time is here. So far this season I am 15-8 and for the first time all year all seven Twin County teams we have seven games to pick no inter Twin County games this week:
SouthWest Edgecombe at Kinston: What has Raymond Cobb done to deserve this schedule. They have played three teams still unbeaten and for their first conference game they draw Kinston who would be unbeaten if it weren't for a game with Powerhouse Havelock. I think the Cougars have to suffer one more week as Kinston wins 34-20.
South East Halifax at North Edgecombe: Tough one to call here but when ever in doubt pick the home team. The Warriors are home so the Warriors win 26-20.
North Pitt at Tarboro: If I am Jeff Craddock I worry more about a mental let down than any thing else this week. If the Vikings show up ready to play no contest. There are toughter conference games up and coming and Tarboro had not better sleep on this one. They won't Vikings 35 NP 14
Laney at Northern Nash: 4-A Laney taking on the Knights who really need a unexpected win to boost them them to a notch higher than they are now. So far they need a signature win and this could give them a pre conference boost: Close but no cigar. Laney 31 Northern Nash 14
South Granville at Southern Nash: Are the Firebirds really as good as they have shown so far? I see no cracks like I saw with last years team. Just maybe the Birds are for real. Southern Nash 42 S Granville 10
New Bern at Nash Central: So far this season the Bulldogs have not played to my expectations. Change may be coming at qb this week. They need to be better on offense and clamp down more on defense. It will not happen this week. New Bern just might put 50 on the scoreboard and Nash Central will have a tough time keeping up. New Bern 49 Nash Central 22
Rocky Mount at Rose: Any year when Rocky Mount has been great they have struggled to beat Rose. Rose looks as if they are headed for an average year. Gryphons are surprising everyone with their play so far. This will be close but the 4th quarter falls the Gryphon way. 27-21. Of my eight misses so far this season three have been the Gryphons time to start getting their picks right.
