Third Week Guesses(Predictions)

Off to a decent start so far this year 13-3 on my weekly guesses and this week there some very interesting games that could be challenging.  Here we go with week three....

Rocky Mount 2-0 @Hertford County 2-0 Quite frankly this may very well be one of the toughest games to pick this week.  I like what I see in the Rocky Mount defense and being very begrudging giving up yards.  I honestly don't know what to make of Hunt so far this year whether the HC victory over the Warriors was HC is good or the Warriors are average  Gryphons is a dilly 24-19

The next hardest game to judge is Kinston 2-0 @ Fike2-0:  Like Hunt I don't know what to make of Fike as of yet but I think this week will tell us a lot. Deep down in my soul I don't think Fike is there yet this year so I am taking Kinston 28-21.

Northern Nash 0-2@Tarboro1-1:  Tarboro left several players home last week due to team issues and don't know whether they will play this week or not. Tarboro has depth issues as they have too many players going both ways.  At this point Northern just has issues but I don't think this one will be as bad as last week.  Tarboro 21 Northern 6.

Rocky Mount Prep1-1  @ Loiusburg1-1:Louisburg wins this one  40-6.

St Davids @Rocky Mount Academy1-0.  There are games coming that will be harder for the Eagles they take down St Davids 38-13.* Understand RMA is traveling to Hobgood Friday so RMA will win but the score will be higher  RMA54 Hobgood 38

Greene Central 0-2 @SouthWest Edgecombe2-0:  Unless there is some major changes in my opinion between now and next week I'm picking SWE over Tarboro then why would I go against the Cougars this week.  Cougars 44 Greene Central 7

Nash Central 0-2 @ Rose 2-0:  Rose has won twice against 4-A foes  so unless the Rampants have slept all week the Bulldogs don't have a chance .  Rose 53 Bulldogs 14

Bunn 1-1 @ Southern Nash 2-0 Firebirds should win a little easier than last week but not by much more.  Firebirds 36 Bunn 22.

North Edgecombe 1-1 @ SE Halifax1-1.  Winnable game if every thing falls the Warriors way but I doubt it.
SE Halfax 24 North Edgecombe 12

New Hanover 0-1 @ Hunt 1-1:  NH lost to a South Carolina school last week and most of the time those SC schools are rather good when they cross the border.  I think the question here is do I think New Hanover is better than Hertford County who beat Hunt last week and the answer is yes.  New Hanover 27- Hunt 14.
Forgot about ECU tonight:National TV everyone wearing black Pirates big 52-31
