Reports out of Lamar County High School Thursday at noon indicated Pike County has declined to play Lamar County in football next season, thus ending the annual Battle of Potato Creek at least for awhile.
Battle of Potato Creek coming to an end?

There will still be a Battle of Potato Creek but it will be against Pike and Upson! I have been waiting for this one since I played them in high school. Huge rival game, can't wait!

Hate to burst your bubble but Pike and Upson will not, be playing because Upson is in an 11 school region with no room for non-region games. Next, Pike has never played Upson-Lee. R.E. Lee, yes (0-10 against them, Upson County, yes (3-8 against them) and Yatesville, yeah one time (1-0). 4-18, not exactly a stellar record but I suppose just as good as the 7-21 you are against Lamar.

PIKE IS PLAYING UPSON. So guess Pike is playing two Battle of Potato Creek. They will be playing Lamar and Upson. Check your facts!

Think of the lesson you are teaching Coach. This is absolute "chickenflop." We enjoy going over to Barnesville and having them here. We can win if you give us a chance. We might not be able to beat Peach but we can beat Lamar. Have a little faith in our Pirates or take the yellow train out of town.

Wish the Coach from Lamar would take a short bus drive to Griffin and play some football with us! Kinda funny Lamar won't come to Griffin and play us after several invites!

Yes Lamar has been whipping Pike Lately but it is garbage if Pike runs and hides from Lamar. Plus it is one of those games you remember forever.

sounds like a mutt when they get beat in something other than football. UGA folks say, we don't care about anything but football. Typical. At Lamar we want to win in every sport all the time.

You should check UGA's list of accomplishments in sports. The gymnastics team, tennis teams, golf, and softball and baseball are somewhat better than Tech's.
