We welcome a “Newcomer” to Mooresville as these 2 team have never met but Mooresville is no stranger to the Winston/Guilford area schools and Traditionally Mooresville is like 2-11 or something like that vs schools in that area. I believe our wins are over SWG (Cowboys) and Page ….

Mooresville has to clean up penalties as they have had at least 5-10 personal foul in last 2-3 games and such. Mooresville laid 70 on Alexander Central but I don’t see it this week.

NWG has always seemed to be a good competitive program and they are somewhat like Mooresville in term of size , style and all.

I still think Mooresville DL and Offense is clicking right now. Only weakness is maybe Secondary in spots/times

Give me Mooresville by 10 at home
 
Cannot pretend I know much about NWG.

But from some BeReal things I’ve been told, not the biggest size wise, but lots of athleticism. And offensively it appears to be a somewhat of a mirror image of us as far as formations.

Should be a good one, I’d take us 31-21 at home.

Page Pirates 44, if he decides to enter this thread, could fill you in on Northwest as thoroughly as anyone from the Triad. So could Mister War Head and another dude from Northwest that posts here sometimes.

Northwest is pretty good. They have size on the lines and they give the QB time to get the ball out to their playmakers. The thing that impressed me the most (this year) was their defense. They have a solid secondary. If they have success stopping your run game, it might not spell good for you.

What are there weaknesses ?

Their defense has been impressive, particularly the secondary, which seems to anticipate plays well and can effectively shut down passing options. The way they handled the run game in their last few matches has shown that if teams can’t establish the run, their entire offensive strategy becomes compromised.

I like the QB's way to buy some time and make big plays.

This feels like a game where both teams, because of the cold, are really going to try to establish the run. Mooresville has three RBs that can hit a home run on a given play.. and all 3 have very distinctly different running styles which allows them to complement each other extremely well. Then you got the QB that has some serious wheels when needed (4.4 guy).

I think whoever runs the ball the best, wins. I don’t see either team trying to air the thing out much.

I am pulling for Northwest in this one, as I went to Summerfield Elementary and NW Guilford Middle in my early years. Still have a bit of nostalgic sentiment for that area of the county.

10-10 halftime

The fact this game is even close is beyond frustrating. Our offense couldn’t get out of its own way even if it wanted to. Defense has been dominant most of the night.

What did you say about when it gets cold ?
