Jordan……306 yards rushing…..2 receptions for 43 yards….1 pass completion for 40 yards……The 306 yards came on 44 carries and that is a real night’s work….TD runs went for 5, 10, 11 and 20 yards….Took home the game-winner in OT….(44 carries, that’s a load, I don’t care where you are coming in from…….)

*****Other suggestions/nominations, send them our way in the comment box below……*****
Wish we had some way to recognize the boys in the trenches. Those big boys who paved the way for Jordans 306 yard, Adams 201 passing yds or Summers 4tds. The trenches is where the game is won.
You nominate and we will call the coaches and see how the linemen graded out and if they have earned a spot on the list…..
I used to work down in those trenches and I know what it is like down there……
We can make this happen……
Send us some nominees……
I’ll be at Dudley Hillside game this week so Im sure I’ll see some great oline/dline play. So look for some nominations on Monday.
I wasnt at a game last friday so I cant nominate anyone but maybe some of the other readers can.
Saw Butler/Richmond on Saturday two really good teams
Well deserved Mr. Fields!
Didn’t Butler beat Richmond County something like 21-7 to go (3-0)….Unbeaten and no Christian LeMay and the Ferguson kid is doing pretty good at QB for the Bulldogs and they are still ranked #1 in the state in most polls….
Was reading somewhere that the Butler fullback had a monster game with a load of bug receptions out of the backfield and that the new QB’s brother is a deep threat at receiver…..
Bulter doing well.
yeah Butler won 21 – 7. Butlers fb is the real deal. The player that killed Richmond was Lemay’s little brother. I think he surprised them with seveal good runs. Butlers new qb needs a little work but the team is very good.
Andy,
Any news on Haynesworth and the ejection from last weeks game?
Our SEG Fan may have to give us some inside on this one……
Great suggestion.without those guys in the trenches there wont be great rushing and passing yards.
Keep an eye on 71 Demarcus Bell..plays both DL and OL.he’s not the only one Linebacker Denzel Jones and many more…..
Bell is a good one. I look forward to see him go up against Hillsides huge lines
Haynesworth out!!!
