FRANKLINTON -- Franklinton took on its share of heavyweights during action last Friday at the annual Tarboro Football Jamboree in Edgecombe County.
For the third consecutive year, the Red Rams headed back to Coach Clark Harrell’s hometown to meet the likes of SouthWest Edgecombe (expected to be in the mix for a Class 2-AA State Title), Tarboro (the defending Class 2-A State Champ) and North Edgecombe (expected to compete for a Class 1-AA State Title).
Exactly one year has passed since our last bout with ineptitude -- the annual Franklin Times predictions for the Atlantic Coast Conference football season.
Lacking rationale, our picks are almost guaranteed to be fraught with failure. So follow them at your own risk.
Still, we’ll keep trying, as we never give up at the FT. At least when it comes to terrible prognostications.
