Danny Pigge’s Pigskin Preview with our Murphy Wainer Orthopedics Game of the Week and the SayYes Guilford Kickoff
The Dudley Panthers will be facing the South Point Red Raiders and their Triple-Option Redbone Offense….This is our Murphy Wainer Game of the Week, and will have our Sprinkle Oil Pregame Show for you at 7pm, and then the SayYes Guilford Kickoff comes your way at 7:30pm…All of this tonight on GreensboroSports Radio…
(Look for Joe Sirera in coverage for the News and Record and HSXtra.com, at tonight’s Dudley-South Point game.)
Here’s hoping Dudley can get that football early in the game and post a couple of touchdowns to take the pressure off of their defense…Would like to see Dudley run that football hard, and take plenty of time off of the game clock, and keep the South Point Red Raiders triple-option off of the field…It would be great to see Dudley run tons of plays on offense and not let South Point get in sync…It usually takes several plays to get those option teams rolling, and as far as South Point goes, the less snaps/plays the better on this night…Keep that South Point offense off of the field….Don’t ever let them get in rhythm, and Dudley will be better served…Tonight’s game on GreensboroSports Radio…
Looking for Dudley to get running with Michael Shaw, RJ Baker, KJ Morehead, QB Jahmier Slade and others…Dudley will take the pass if South Point gives it to them, but that hard-working Dudley running game, would be a pleasant sight for this night…Michael Shaw is healthy for this game, after straining his neck, last week at Statesville…The running game can help you control the ground and the clock at the same time, and Dudley has the ability to run, and then run some more….Catch the game, on GreensboroSports Radio.
Got to find #31 for South Point on offense, and that is their running back Tyson Riley, with 33 TD’s and nearly 2,500 yards rushing on the season…The South Point QB Elijah Phifer is another threat to run and pass the ball…Cam Medlock is one more key offensive threat for South Point…Hopefully, Dudley will keep those guys on the sidelines and watching the game, while the Dudley offense controls this game….
I would like to see Dudley win this game by two touchdowns, and I think they can, if everything is working properly together, on offense and defense…Got to be aware of that South Point Redbone triple-option offense, as soon as the Dudley defense walks out the door, and leaves home for school on Friday morning….
