Second half was a whole different game. After Dudley messed up the punt and gave Page the ball it was a complete shift in tone from Dudley. They looked tired and defeated.
#2 for Page is quick! Dudley had momentum in the first half with their running game with #32, but decided to start doing short passes and scrambles that didn't work for some reason. Dudley needs to stick with one QB. Switching QBs out like that disrupts the flow of the game for them. Speaking of QB play Dudley's QBs missed a lot of open targets tonight.
Bad play calling by Dudley helped Page, but overall Page was clearly the better team.
Can't wait for the Page and East Forsyth game next month. Should be a great one.
I dont doubt itPage played with out App St commit S/OLB Alex Angus, so Page was not full strength on D
#2 for Page is quick!
We over on West Mountain Street want Page undefeated when we come up 40 to Page on the 28th. #EF #EaglePride
While Page played a very tough team like Dudley, EF is coasting against a horrible N Forsyth. Page then plays a fiesty fast E Guilford team, while EF takes on an even worse Carver team who is rated like #12640 or something in the nation on maxpreps.
Page had/has some games to actually worry about first, and not a game that is 4 weeks from now.
Mental errors late and Page made great adjustments and played a better gameWhat happened to Dudley here???
East Forsyth played a very good 9 win team from last yr in Sanderson to open. Then took on Tabor who is probably equal to Dudley we'll have to wait and see.
Page played Davie I've seen both and Sanderson and Tabor would beat them IMO. Then you had 3A Northern who's really bad and 3a Eastern you can hype them up all you want they are not very good this year. then you play Southern guilford who's awful? You talk like Page is out here battling Mallard Creek and Butler.
Trust me when I say East Forsyth is a really good team and will be Pages toughest test of the Season.
I was only looking at the present (Dudley and NF) and next week (EG and Carver).. but yeah we all know both teams don't have the toughest schedules in the West.... not every week can we face a high level of competition. We were just talking about this on Friday night, I'd like to see Page schedule another 4AA team or 2 in the non conference, they used to play a team from VA, albiet not very far travel wise against GW Danville, I wouldn't mind seeing Page schedule against another VA power like Oscar Smith in Chesapeake and Highland Springs outside of Richmond. Or some in state teams like Wake Forest, Hough, Scotland, or put Butler back on the schedule.
What I was getting at was, Page has other things to worry about than a game that's in 4 weeks, so why bring it up now.. ya know?
Page and S Guilford was an agreement made from years past, nothing we could really do about that one as fans..
Oh yeah, and we are all well aware that East Forsyth has a great team and it's going to be tough, page and east have had many many years of very entertaining games. I've even went to some E Forsyth home games that weren't against Page before.. I can't lie ive always thought highly of EF, the two schools first put each other on the schedule in 1963, and beat Page on their first 3 encounters. Trust me, we know about EF![]()
It will surely be the biggest game in the state that week. I brought it up early because quite honestly this stretch of the schedule is painful to watch.
We do some nonsensical things in Forsyth Co. not in the best interest of our schools. No way we should play North or Carver anymore. I agree like you I'd just soon line down and play that team West did our of Virginia.
What does page have that Dudley has not yet accomplished?
I knew Carver was in trouble against Oak Grove (and for the season) when they lost to Oak Grove’s JV with a good portion of their varsity linemen playing. That and they had to beg to borrow Oak Grove’s kicking tee.
They have no business playing East Forsyth, Dudley or anyone of that caliber.
Those had to be 8 quarter kids that also played on varsity. They're hurting for numbers from what I understand.
Yes, I believe that they were 8 quarter kids... but there was a pretty shady refusal to share their roster that night during the JV game with Oak Grove... so who knows if it got reported correctly. No skin off my back either way, since they’ll be sitting home in early November most likely. I feel bad for the program. It was really strong less than a decade ago.
I agree. Forsyth Co. is better when Carver is viable. A lot of Carvers issues are external but a great deal are also internal too. It is sad what it's turned into and I'm afraid if there's truth to the S. Forsyth info they'll turn Parkland into the same. I don't care for the optics about this situation.
