EB offense played very conservative most of game but credit Tidehaven's defense. The Tigers fumbled twice in EBs;' end of the field,. Three plays on a third and long after the first TO, EB got a long TD pass. Then after another fumble-EB drove 47 yards in about 8 plays for their second TD.

EB won't score 10 points next week, hate to say it. I know you're an EB alum, but it's going to be ugly.

I forget what year it was but one time, a long time ago, Paris was 0-6 and then went on to win the state championship.

I don't think that's right. Paris went 0-3 to start the 1988 season, but went on to win their only state championship. Somebody else, maybe?

The next year, 1989, Chapel Hill went 1-4 in pre-district, then went on to win a state championship. Atlanta matched this feat, going 1-4 in pre-district before winning state in 2003.

Decatur is doing it this year. Finished 4-6 and just won the 4a Division 1 final last night against Hereford. They are now 8-6!
