Chase @ Reidsville
- Thread starter tarheel fan1
- Start date
If all you do is run the ball Reidsville is going to bust your hind parts
That was the Mt Heritage strategy.
Maybe 150 miles or so heading down interstate 40 west, but in the triad area of NC it’s a recipe to get you rear end kicked by 30+
I have seen Catholic line up and truck it down the field but most can't. Reidsville will be quicker on the outside so if you can run it's best chance for win
Actually the best chance to beat Reidsville is running it down their throat. Those sideline to sideline plays want work. Reidsville is to fast and quick East to west. I remember MH came to Reidsville with their running attack and kept Reidsvilles offense off the field for 9min in the 1st qtr. We ended up winning 21-14. Came in averaging over 45 points a game up until the mountain Heritage game. So I wouldn’t say a one Dimensional Power Running team has no chance against Reidsville. With that being said I believe Reidsville win in a close one, Meaning by 21 or less if chase can limit Reidsville offensive snaps

The CHASE defense has shown improvement since the Hendersonville game. Granted, the competition hasn't been at the same level as Hendersonville, but still an improvement nonetheless. To me, what could be a deciding factor in this game is special teams, specifically kickoff returns. CHASE has giving up some big KO returns this year and if that happens, it will be very problematic because I am sure Reidsville has a plethora of able-bodied skill players who can take a kickoff to the house in a blink of the eye.
I believe CHASE will be able to move the ball from 20 to 20, but they have to finish drives. They reached the red zone five or six times against Hendersonville, but only managed three points.
Reidsville will also be able to move the ball. The CHASE defense has made a living this year off turnovers and I definitely think they will have to get two or three of those to win this game.
On a side note, this will be my first ever trip to Reidsville, I need some recommendations on where to eat. Let me know a couple of your favorites.

How kids did Chase get from the benefit if East Rutherfordton not having a senior team.
Short Sugars BBQ.
Much easier said than done. Reidsville coaches are among the best in high school football. If you can only run the ball they will devise a defense that will beat you or make you do something you don't do as well.
Pete’s burgers, mayflower seafood, Turks and I’ll add Garfields as another sit down place
If they try one of those choices they will be sad, as Garfields appears to be no more.
Wow, didn’t know that, I don’t live in reidsville so I’m not in tune with some stuff.
Reidsville will win but Chase is better than McMichael…the margin of victory will say more about the Rams than the Trojans.
I just hope to win don’t really care about impressing anyone
Garfield's closed. In the last 6 or 7 years we've played WRH, NE, SWO, Edenton-Holmes, Mt. Heritage, West Rowan and several other run first, grind it out, ball control offenses. WRH and Mt. Heritage in '17 have successful at it. East Surry matched up well with speed and multiple athletes. I would argue despite the fumble against WRH we would have won that game. Big, efficient, but slow o lineman don't work as well against Reidsville. You also have to be able to score quick if you get behind. Mt. Heritage and NE have tried it multiple times. Not taking anything away from those programs. Great talented players and coaches. They just don't play from behind well. You have to be able to shut us down completely or go toe-to-toe up and down the field. I think the game could be closer than some think. We'll have to see.
This season, page had some success. They had two good backs.
You don’t think watlington is? He started at gw Danville at linebacker previous years
If I'm not mistaken, which is possible, my son's senior year. Fall 2017. They had a 4⭐ running back.
We played west Rowan a long time ago. The 2011 team lost 26-10, but our starting an was out and we did not have a back up qb. We got blown out in 2012 35-6 maybe.
You're thinking the former East Montgomery High School, and that big RB they had that went to App (i think)
He's been solid but not dominant. He's fourth on the team in tackles (avg. 3.6 per game) but he does have 6 TFLs.

It's not like they can't pass. Senior QB Damian Boykins is 109 of 175 for 1384 yards and 16 TDs this season.
Go-to receiver is Taivon Derisma, a 6-1 junior. He has 40 receptions for 620 yards and 5 TDs.
To compare, Reidsville sophomore QB Al Lee is 99 of 161 for 2,294 yards and 30 TDs.
I'm just an outsider looking in...but to me this looks like an amazing game to be able to see. Good luck to both teams.
#13 Chase (10-1 (4-1)) finished 2nd in their conference and have outscored opponents 41-18. They won their first round matchup versus PLP 47-8.
#4 Reidsville (10-0 (6-0)) finished 1st in their conference and have outscored opponents 45-10. They won their first round matchup versus Randleman 49-7.
The Pass versus The Run. In order for Chase to keep things where they want them they'll need to really be on top of the Time of Possession game and play keep away. Even then, an offensive attack like Reidsville is dangerous every single play. I love this matchup. My prediction: at the half Reidsville 21 - Chase 13 and by games end - Reidsville 38 - Chase 28.

Through the first 6 games, Rams' opponents were averaging 216 total yards per game. In the four games since, opponents are averaging 173 yards per game.
Rushing yards per game is pretty much the same.
Mule ... is that the stat you were looking for?
Ooops ... that was FBCapital's question. Yours will require a bunch of digging - not even sure I have that info.
It was baby boy's senior year at ER as well. He stood up that big joker at like the two yard line but...
Got carried into end zone...
It's ok he was giving up like 80 pounds...
That young man was a load.
For your info Chase’s head coach was one of our longtime coaches at Burns- plus he is a homegrown kid. We pull for our own. It has nothing to do with who we might face in the future.
Interesting info … thanks Shelbyfootball. One has to wonder why Chase has depth problems (as mentioned in a previous past) with that influx of manpower and where would they be without it.
Another item: Chase and East Rutherford campuses are 9 miles apart. Forest City and Bostic.
