To me the only deciding factor to separate these two good programs is the penalty factor. Having had NS on the radio three times, they have had a few penalties that can end a drive against a quality team. North Rowan was a pre-season favorite by many to win with WM and NS trying to create a three way tie with an upset somewhere. I like NS "if" they find a little balance with their passing game. They have a quality deep threat with Rush. Their qb is excellent with carrying out fakes and hiding the football. The kicking game is definitely a NS advantage too. That kid is not going to allow a return on kickoffs and he can kick field goals from 45 out. It might come down to the officiating crew. If they let the teams play... if you know what I mean... North Stanly by 3. Somewhere in the 30-27 range...imo.
