Final Week OOPs Not Quite

Poor showing on picks going 5-3 which gets me  to 62-20 on the year.  This is suppose to be the last week of the season but Matthew has had a say in that. Let's start with the playoff game.

St David's 8-2 @ Rocky Mount Academy 8-2:  Eagles won by 52 last time.  Might not be as bad but Eagles will get Southampton again next week.  RMA 48 St David's 13

SouthWest Edgecombe 3-6 2-1 @ Beddingfield 2-1 5-4:  Might not be for the conference championship but who knows what might happen.  Beddingfield 26 SWE 20

Fike 1-2 5-4 @ Hunt 0-3 3-6:  Hunt just can't score.  Fike at times has shown they can.  When was the last time one of these was not in the battle for first in Big East?  Fike 26 Hunt 8

Northampton 1-3 4-6 @ Rocky Mount Prep 0-3 3-6: The Jags can win this one.  RMPrep 26 Northampton 20

Northern Nash 1-2 5-4 @ Rocky Mount 7-2 2-1:  Remember Northern Nash was the only team to hold Rocky Mount under twenty points last year.  The Knights two losses are two of the leaders and they get the third one in this one.  Rocky  Mount has too much still for play for. Rocky Mount 26 Northern Nash 6.

North Edgecombe 8-0 3-0 @ Tarboro 7-2 3-0:  I wish I could tell you this has a chance to be a game but I don't think it will be.  Tarboro 42 North Edgecombe 6

Southern Nash 9-0 3-0 @ Nash Central 6-3 2-1:  Who in their right mind had any idea that this game could produce the conference champion and it could be Nash Central.  Will there be a Firebird let down after taking control of the conference with it's victory over Rocky Mount?  There is no doubt the Bulldogs have improved every time they have suited up this year.

The Bulldogs have a chance.  Their defense has grown stout as conference play  progresses.  I am going to shock the Big East world that after the victory over Rocky Mount the Firebirds  put the ball on the ground in this won and Nash Central creates a 3 way tie.  Nash Central 26 Southern Nash 21

Rocky Mount Lady Gryphon Tennis team heads to Union Pines 19-1  today in round three of the team state tennis championships.  The Lady Gryphons seeded 6th 14-2 will be playing the 5th seed in Cameron.
