Both teams are at (13-0), and both teams are at home this Friday…Grimsley’s opponent, Cornelius Hough(12-1), won their game last Friday night, 34-0 over the Mallard Creek Mavericks…Only loss of the season for Hough was to Northwestern(12-0) from South Carolina….Northwestern in the hunt for a South Carolina state title…Dudley is facing West Charlotte(10-2) and the West Charlotte Lions topped #1 seed Asheville Erwin 58-0 last Friday night…Only losses of the season for West Charlotte were to Mallard Creek, 13-12, and to Hough, 40-14…
Two quality opponents coming to Greensboro this Friday night, and will both Grimsley and Dudley continue to win, and keep their hopes for State Title alive??? Dudley and Grimsley both moving on, or do you see it a different way??? What do you say??? Will they both live to play again???**********
++++++++++One of the wildest matchups of all this coming Friday night is in the 3-A East bracket, where you have #30 seed JH Rose from Greenville/Greenville Rose(5-8) at #2 seed Fayetteville 71st at (13-0)…Rose began the 2024 season at (0-5), and their opening stretch record/regular season got going at (2-8)…..Last week Greenville Rose topped the Southern School of Energy and Sustainability, 36-7…We’ll see how it goes, and nobody knows what goes, or if Rose throws another Monkey Wrench into the 2024 playoffs again, this Friday night in Fayetteville…++++++++++
(Do the Rose Rampants have that “True Sustainability”???)
Will take Grimsley and Dudley both going all the way. Champions
I don’t see Dudley getting that far. Grimsley takes the Title and Dudley falls next week at Hickory for the second straight year.
Dudley beat Mallard Creek back in the Summer in scrimmage down in Charlotte and Mallard Creek beat West Charlotte so Dudley will beat West Charlotte. Hough beat Mallard Creek and Dudley beat Mallard Creek and Hough is going to beat Grimsley so that means Dudley can beat Grimsley. Grimsley stays home after Friday and Dudley keep moving. Hough too tough for Grimsley. Dudley too athletic for West Charlotee. Dudley takes down Hickory and then Dudley loses to Rose in the State Championship Game.
Grimsley has a tough test this week because hough has a stingy defense. But what beats a good defense is a fearless offense. With 5 star quarterback Fazon Brandon at the helm and Mitchell Summers 44 touchdowns attacking. Hough has finally met their match this season. Grimsley 42 to 27 over Hough. Dudley will also show why they are deadly on both sides of the ball. They come in with 2 junior quarterbacks with over 17 passing touchdowns apiece. Now that’s impressive. Not to mention one of the best defensive unit in the state if not number 1. They are strong, aggressive, fearless and stingy when giving up points. This team has given up a total of 23 points on the season. That’s incredible. These guys don’t play and they come to demolish all opponents every Friday night. Dudley 38 West Charlotte 7. They both move on to the state semifinals.
@TJ so why is it all about Dudley beating Grimsley by some magical, nonsensical, scrimmage math? Dudley would not be able to compete at Grimsley’s level. Please remember Grimsley is at the 4A level and Dudley is beating little 3A teams. No hate at Dudley. I think both teams go on to take state championships this year.
Going with my Whirlies to go all the way. Grimsley to win State Championship. Not sure about Dudley cause Grimsley seems to have the best quarterback right now. Hope they both get that far, but taking Grimsley over Cardinal Gibbons again for the 4-A Title.
Gfan you do know that Dudley has beaten every 4A team they have played this year right? Dudley not losing. We play whoever is in front of us.
West Charlotte at Dudley will be one for the ages. Dudley by 6.
Hough at Grimsley. Grimsley by 14.
Hough by 10
Dudley by 14
Gfan you do know that Dudley played some of the same teams in Grimsley Conference don’t you. I guess Page and Southeast Guilford isn’t 4A. I guess Durham Hillside which is 4A and finished 2nd behind Durham Jordan and they made it to the 3rd Round before losing to Cardinal Gibbons which is 4A. It’s a reason Grimsley stopped playing Dudley after the 2016 Season. Dudley was 11-3 against them from 2000-2016. Coach Davis has reached out to play Grimsley and they don’t want the match. I wonder why! But hey keep beating up on Powerhouses like Ragsdale, Western Guilford, SW Guilford and Page. LMBO!
Gfan I know for a fact if Grimsley played Hickory, Havelock, Fayetteville 71st, West Charlotte, Jacksonville in 3A they would be in a battle. Oh yeah West Charlotte who Dudley is playing this Friday has 2304 Students they will be in 8A next season, Grimsley has only 2100 and they will be 7A. Lol!
Gfan West Charlotte is in the same conference with Mallard Creek and Hough. It’s a split 3A/4A conference. You really need to do your research before you open your mouth.
Just saying that Dudley is better than Grimsley doesn’t make it so. Until Dudley has the courage to play Grimsley we just will not know. I hope Dudley wins it all but that will never make them better than Grimsley. The level of competition is just not the same.
Perry Saunders said Dudley was 11-3, but it was actually 14-3 from 2000-2016
The fact of the matter is, Dudley dominated the series since 2000, and Grimsley wanted NOTHING to do with Dudley after 2016…. Its only been the last 3 years that Grimsley is chirping and saying this and that about Dudley not wanting to play them, and how much better they are. Where was that confidence back in 2016? No where to be found. Until they play again, Dudley has the right to say they are better.
Regap with the Mic Drop!
Can we all agree that game would bring the biggest crowd to our area in a long, long time!
Good luck to the both of em!
