With all due respect to all the great teams we have on our schedule these are my top 3 teams in terms of difficulty, all away games too.

1. @WRH
2. @St. Pauls
3. @NS-Jax

Honorable Mention:
Midway (Their QB can ball)
 
Games I worry about:

Jacksonville
Rose
WRH

And I would have to add ED anywhere in there also

The Page @ Reidsville match up will be very interesting.


Yes, it will be. Reidsville has been wanting a Page or Dudley match up for a while. Glad to finally get them on the schedule, feels like we've played everyone else in Guilford county.
 
this oldtimer remembers when Dudley was in the same 4A conf. with Reidsville in the 1980's..the schools have actually played each other 10 times since 1969...first in 1975 and the last in 1988....Reidsville has won 4 times and Dudley 6 tines:

1975....Reidsville 18 Dudley 0
1976....Dudley 16 Reidsville 15
1979....Dudley 7 Reidsville 0
1980....Reidsville 12 Dudley 6
1981....Dudley 31 Reidsville 6
1982....Reidsville 15 Dudley 13
1985....Dudley 28 Reidsville 8
1986....Dudley 19 Reidsville 6
1987....Reidsville 22 Dudley 7
1988....Dudley 14 Reidsville 7

1987....Reidsville 22 Dudley 7
1988....Dudley 14 Reidsville 7


That's crazy we haven't played since 1988. Would easily be Reidsville biggest rival and a huge gate.

I got a feeling that East Duplin might be better than all three.

funny how they finally schedule each other when Page is on a downswing. It most likely has alot to do with Coach Robertson's ties with Reidsville. Also, the old school of thinking was that Page wouldn't see much benefit from scheduling a 1A/2A opponent. If you win, as a 4A school, it's because you should have, if you lose its an embarrassment because, you know of the "you can't beat us, and you have over 1000 more students than us" argument. But with Reidsville being such a quality opponent, it doesn't really matter much. And with Page in rebuilding mode after the new coaching hire bringing in Robertson, it's nice to put some new teams on the schedule and start fresh with the young guns. Page has a lot of young promising looking talent.

I don't think Reidsville fans ever use the excuse of the more students. Even when we were playing Northwest Guilford, they were, I'm guessing still are the largest 4a team in the county. We know depth factor could play a role in going against 4a teams. But I consider us a Gonzaga type team. Reidsville is very young this season, so won't be the veteran team of the last 2 years. Yeah, I don't think either was necessarily ducking the game. Page seen more benefit in playing other games, coach rob respects us more than previous regiments I'm sure. I do think it would have been nice to have had the game at least once in the 2000's, so its good its finally happening.

Pages AD has wanted the game, being an old Morehead guy. Stars finally aligned this season.

Page hired a new AD 2 years ago when Rusty Lee retired. But yes, Rusty probably did at one point but it just wasn't in the cards. Unless you're talking about the current AD.

RS is going to look a little different at times this year! I see them making some serious noise this year!

It will be a tough test week 1 for the titans. I have heard some encouraging things so far but containing RS speed will be an issue. We have a freshman RB who is going to be special
