<strong>C.E. Murray (7-1) at Bamberg-Ehrhardt (12-0)</strong>
This is a rematch from last year’s playoffs in which Bamberg-Ehrhardt scored in the final minute to eliminate C.E. Murray.
This time, it’s going to be two high-powered offenses going against a couple of rugged defenses.
C.E. Murray reached the semi-finals with an easy 47-0 victory over Whale Branch. <strong>Tyree Prunes</strong> threw for a touchdown while passing for 142 yards and rushing for 34 more. <strong>Quentarius Grant</strong> added 93 yards rushing and three touchdowns.
This might have been the War Eagles best defensive effort of the season. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="123264" first="Amond" last="Myers"]</strong> had a 45-yard interception return for a touchdown and <strong>Justin Graham</strong> added a fumble return for another score. Prunes registered an interception. <strong>Que’shay Gamble</strong>, <strong>Nicholas Brown</strong> and Graham combined for 17 tackles for loss.
Bamberg-Ehrhardt continued its undefeated season with a 33-6 thrashing of Baptist Hill. The Red Raiders ran for over 300 yards with <strong>Quinton Banks</strong> leading the way. Banks ran for 152 yards and two touchdowns. <strong>Nick Folk</strong> added 135 yards and a 60-yard scoring burst and <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="91201" first="Quincy" last="Bias"]</strong> added another rushing score to go along with 53 yards.
The defense is allowing less than nine points per game, and they limited a Baptist Hill team averaging more than 40 points per game to just a single touchdown.
<strong>Jerome Simmons</strong>, <strong>Christian Draper</strong>, <strong>Yzorion Washington</strong> and Bias all recorded sacks and they capped the scoring with a safety.
