DBKPT93 Posted September 11, 2023 Report Share Posted September 11, 2023 Any idea how this one will shake out? Any idea what Asheville gonna bring to the table? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TribalEmpire Posted September 11, 2023 Report Share Posted September 11, 2023 They're 1-2 with both losses (blowout losses at that) to Charlotte area schools. I have no idea what to expect. No clue how talent level in NC compares to northeast Tennessee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HTV Posted September 11, 2023 Report Share Posted September 11, 2023 Don't know specifically about this Asheville High team, but they are normally a solid program and play in a very good league. Very much comparable to DB and Science Hill talent. The alma mater of Leomard Little. And Buzz Peterson. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EHSTrack06 Posted September 11, 2023 Report Share Posted September 11, 2023 (edited) We played them a few times and they are on the level of DB/SH. They are a large school but underachieving and looking at them this season it seems they are a shell of their former selves. DB should win a close one. However don't let the blowout fool you. Providence Day has 2 espn top 300 guys. A 5 star and 4 star and a few 3 star players. So it's not like Asheville is losing to scrubs.

WaCoJaCo Posted September 11, 2023 Report Share Posted September 11, 2023 Not sure how they match up. No common opponents to judge from. I think they always have good athletes. All you need to beat DB is a good offensive line a decent QB and a couple of decent receivers. Or one good receiver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Providence Day also has the number rated player in the Country for the 2025 class in the ranking right now in the 247 rankings. When y’all played Asheville they had some D1 players. You still got screwed by the refs when you played them at Asheville. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The phantom holding call when Ryan Thomas scored.That was the Asheville coach 100th win. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few weeks ago the Erwin Asheville area school came to Boone and beat us 7-0, but they had 2 long TD runs called back due to holding. You know how it is, everybody was looking 40 yards down the field and nobody in the stands saw the hold (or not), only the flag on the ground at the end of the play. I really hope that wasn't some TN home-cooking but unfortunately sometimes it happens and I have heard about that Elizabethton holding call before so chances are the Cyclones got shafted on that one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scott12 Posted September 12, 2023 Report Share Posted September 12, 2023 Asheville is down this season, but they will have better athletes then the Indians. Game could go ether way. As I remember every time Asheville has played Elizabethton, they have won. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have live in east Tennessee for last 5 years, football in NC is lot stronger then Tennessee. Probably biggest reason is demographics.
