@black&gold=Dude what the hell man.Pack wins and lose as a team.Always have and always will and as a fan and fellow packer backer i am upset too but we shouldn’t resort to name calling,they are kids u know!! Don’t single out a player and tear him down cause we all lost as a team even tho we didn’t play a down.Now i can’t tell u what to do but i can at least ask u to have class and take this defeat with the rest of us like the proud packer backers that we are.Hats off to our packers!! win or lose they will never quit and i can respect that!!!

WILDHAWG2012….We still have alot of work to do. We have to get better each and every game. Don’t know what Coach McPherson is going to do with this two QB system he has going on right now. I still wouldn’t want to play you guys in the playoffs. That’s when ya’ll shine!! I believe ya’ll will get right, just not tonight though. We had to come out and make a statement!! And besides, ya’ll blew us out last year so this was a statement game for Lowndes!! Coach Mac had posters with “34-7″ plastered everywhere to remind the players what happened last year. And it also didn’t help when your Coach blasted Lowndes in your local newspaper either!! The players didn’t like that at all. All in all, good game, I’m sure you guys bounce back and you’ll be their in the playoffs representing Region 1!!

We got beat absolutley. But when he gets a cover shot on a local publication as the saviour of the program and as D! prospect………then I exspect him to live up to it…..he was the one flexing his muscles on the magazine cover…….flex them on the field……..if he is a D1 prospect then he should repond to his critics

5 time, can you blame Propst for not liking Lowndes? McPherson went crying to state officials for bringing in players while GHSA laughed at him. Then he’s playing two QBs this year, both from other schools. How can that be explained? Valdosta has colquitts old QB and Camden is playing the Vonashek kid. But yet Propst is the one taking the heat? Seems fair

Congrats to Lowndes as you earned your victory – good D and a better O than us. On a side note, normally I enjoy listening to Probst after the game but not tonight. He acted like a poor loser and a prick – IMHO.

Not calling Camden out. Just pointing out that all teams do what Propst is accused of cheating of. Am I wrong about Vonashek? All teams do it, if you don’t then you’re behind from the start.

Where do you get your info from??? Lowndes only has 1 QB to transfer in , Alex Stephenson. He started out at Ware. Than transfered to Valdosta. He lost his starting spot at Valdosta to Wilkes so he transferred over to Lowndes basically as a last resort….

Colquitt Fan…… No, not true! Everyone is NOT doing what Probst does. I don’t know the full story behind Voneshek coming to Camden. But I can tell you one thing, the AD, HC, nor anyone else would risk Camden’s program for one player……..Did you play football for Colquitt?

I played baseball for Colquitt. What does that matter? Why is it only wrong if players transfer to colquit but ok for everybody else? The GHSA investigated the situation bc McPherson went to them and absolutely nothing wrong was done. Do you see the post above where the Lowndes QB has played at 3 different schools?

They dont have anything to do it. I’m just saying that kids go to different schools for a better opportunity. All schools do it but yet rush is the only one taking heat for it. He has sent almost 40 kids to college the las three years. He is such a terrible person. What did he do at Hoover Nukie?

Lowndes has two starting qb’s ……Carlo (homegrown) and Stevenson the transfer and I listened to coach propst’s pre game and post game interview…..he made this statement “Stevenson got his first start against hardaway “……well if he would’ve watched film he would’ve known that Stevenson started every game …..

I don’t care where he’s played. I don’t see anything wrong with it. If youre gonna compete in the state, you have to do what everybody else is doing. Lowndes played a good game tonight. Colquitt, Lowndes, Camden, and Grayson are still the teams to beat on the state and it will be a very interesting playoff bracket.

@Colquittfan
Yes he is at his 3rd school. I dont know how he ended up at Valdosta but I do know he got to Lowndes. He simply lost his starting spot and needed a place to play. So he just went down the road to Lowndes. No coaches involved in bringing him over. Im not going to get into he said she said eith transfers going to Colquitt. It is old news. Everyone is over it now. So lets leave it that way.

Valdosta, what’s up with that stadium. One way in and out for the visitors side. Your announcers stopped talking in second half. Not crying about anything, just asking. So now, can people finally say Camden played a quality opponent. Or is there going to be something else?

One down five to go! There are still five region games left in the regular season, so I’m not celebrating yet. Overall, Camden played a good game tonight, but there’s MUCH room for improvement, especially on defense. Valdosta had a number of opportunities, but failed to take advantage of their good fortune!

ColquittFan……….you are wrong bud……..you guys are not as good as you were last year ….just like i have said all along…….our quik d line wore out the fat o line yall have……..hill was not a threat at all……..yall had NO run game…and were stuffed when you did……we sacked yall 6 or 7 times………had 3 picks………and we beat yall and had 14 penaltiies……..and made a lot of mistakes……lucky it wasnt worse………..no colquitt is not a threat to win state this year in my opinion….not right now anyways……..GOOD? yea yall have a pretty good team…but just be happy the score wasnt 27-7…….blocked fgs are rare…that was only bc of a high snap …….and lowndes left points on the field
lowndes dominated this game from start to finish…lookup how may total yards colquitt had tonight
lowndes had 230 yds rushing against colquitt tonight……colquitt had 160 yards total
you thought tonight was bad…….wait til camden comes calling

camden is very good ….i new that going in…….what you guys showed us tonight is that valdosta is really not that good this year…….not taking anything away from camden…valdosta has a very very young defense….
colquitt can beat camden if they correct a few things in my opinion…….but if they dont then camden will roll in the pen…get a lil dirty…get us rinse off and leave with a W

bksmith14……You might want to concern yourself about how Lowndes will play against Camden, not Colquitt. If you guys play Camden the way you played Colquitt tonight, you’re going to have BIG trouble! So, before you talk too much smack, keep in mind there are still five more region games. No one is on easy street yet!

No doubt y’all handled us bk. Lowndes offensive coordinator is horrendous though. Why throw the ball any last night? Y’all’s offense didn’t look good either. Y’all ran on us on two drives basically. I applaud our defense for the game they played with how much they were on the field. We can be as good if we can figure out our OL problems. Lowndes is just greatly improved on defense this year. Y’all killed us at the line of scrimmage last night. FYI that’s our 4th blocked FG or extra point this year, they do happen. Y’all made an special teams play as well. Regardless of total yards, which wasn’t too bad considering TOP, we were in position to take a lead or tie at the end, and y’all stepped up. Camden is gonna blow the doors off anyone they play. They should win state this year. Great game though, y’all beat us. But neither of those teams will go far playing like that.

As an outsider to the region 1 6A and having seen the Big 4 play I would have to agree with Camden then the rest, although I was impressed with Lowndes and their speed on both sides of the ball. I think BK hit on that an IMO that was the key to that game. The beauty of HS football is that you get to prove it on the field and at the end of the day if your team is that good you will have the opportunity to play the best and settle it on the field. .

@bksmith=Ok yall beat us at the line of scrimage and your D looked great but don’t start talkin too much because you didn;t even believe you guys would win.I mean u was pretty quiet this week and all you talked about was how Lowndes was not the same team as in the past and how it is hard to win in the hogpen.And even tho your D shut us down that 230 yards rushing was your total yards for tonight as well.Despite the poor play you guys still only scored only one offensive touchdown too.Yes you guys did leave points on the field and should have scored more,but the suspect play calling kept us in the game.It is along season and we do have some work to do but when your OL gets owned all night it is hard to really see what your offense can do.Great game plan on the defensive side.but we will be alright and learn from this and move on. Lowndes will contend but i am not surprised congrats tho

I know Valdosta has a historic program and alot of pride but they really should play in the division their enrollment qualifies for. They are not a 6A playoff team. No one should be surprised by the outcome of the Camden game.
As for Grayson and it looks like they will enter the playoffs as a #2 or possibly even #3 if they lose to Brookwood. Colquitt and Grayson both coming into the playoffs in the bottom of their brackett would be interesting.

CONGRATULATIONS to the ALLATOONA BUCCANEERS on another one in the “W” column!
Sitting at 5 / 0 and 5 / 0 in Region 5 AAAAA you have all but assured you WILL have a playoff game and SHOULD host a playoff game…BUT don’t pull out the REGION CHAMPIONSHIP title yet…you have a date left just down HWY 92…Nov. 9th in “THE BONEYARD”
A quick stat EAST is 214 / 17 after 5 games! Average of 42.8 / 3.4 per game!
(2 / 2) SOUTH PAULDING last night scored 14 on your “D”…
(0 / 4) LITHIA SPRINGS scored 7 on your “D”,
(3 / 1) ROME scored 17 on your “D”,
and (1 / 4) WOODLAND / BARTOW scored 20…20!!!…on your “D”…
WHAT do you think EAST is going to put up…????
Oh yeah and that other stat…EAST “D” allowing LESS than 4 pts per game!
NOV. 9th!!!…NOV. 9th!!!…NOV. 9th!!!…NOV. 9th!!!…

grayram……..You’re funny! Seems that every time Camden wins a game, it’s because there’s something WRONG with the opponent, not the Camden Team being a quality squad. But, I guess that’s why they play the game. As for VHS, IMO, they’re a good team. Once they iron out the miscues, they will upset some folks. Also, I would never disrespect a program with their accomplishments. VHS deserves to play at any classification they desire, win or lose! Go Camden County Wildcats!

How is saying that its no surprise they won big is demeaning Camden?
Camden is among the best every year not only in Georgia but a team that
could compete with anyone.
As for Valdosta, I do respect thier history and sure they certainly deserve to play in
whatever division they choose, I just don’t think they are above average at the AAAAAA level.

grayram……Most teams in 6A are NOT above average. Does that mean they should move down in classification? If the way your statement was posted meant no disrespect, I apologize!
Here's the score
September 29th, 2012
4:07 pm
6A has nothing to do with quality levels like AA baseball does in the MLB. The only thing it means is the amount if the student population. Just because a school may have 3500 students does not mean the eleven on the football field are better than other schools. I think a great idea is to have a Korky Kell type of tournament at the end of the year and let the champions from each level duke it out for an overall champ. Who knows a single A school might beat everybody.
well lets see
September 29th, 2012
5:56 pm
Would I rather choose from 3500 students to get my best 11 OR choose from a much smaller group? If I wanted fresh legs in the 4th Quarter WITH talent(depth), I’ll take the 6A TEAM!
