My son and I enjoyed watching the Eaton-
P'burg game while my mother-in-law cooked the turkey on Thanksgiving morning. I was fortunate to work the first two rounds of NC playoffs this season on the field.
Here in NC the regular season ends the first Friday in November. The only teams playing after that are in the playoffs. Yesterday was the third round. We have 4 classifications, subdivided in the playoffs into two divisions based on school enrollment figures. Each division has 32 teams playing. The first round game are usually laughers.
Our state finals are the second week in December spread amongst the 4 ACC universities' fields.
The old timers tell me that back 50-60 years ago there were some big rivalry games played here on Thanksgiving.
