Welcome Newberry to the game this Friday. As for Columbia I don't know what to say. They have some athletes but they are a bad football team. IDK if they just weren't trying, poorly coached or both. Believe it or not, we only ran 11 offensive plays in a game that had clock running in 2nd quarter. It was blocked punt, punt returns, interception returns, one play drives, just crazy. I think it was 35-0 and we had run 3 plays maybe....not much fun to have such games.

I can believe it, the way the playoffs are done in this state need serious re-evaluation. Making the playoffs should mean something, it shouldn't mean you were the 6th best team in your region.

It all boils down to the move to 5A, not enough schools in SC for 5 divisions.

Even before they added 5A, you had teams making the playoffs with 2 region wins. I remember Newberry having to travel to a 3 win Columbia team 1 year in the playoffs because they won 3 of their 4 region games over eau claire, ca johnson, and somebody else.
