Should be a battle. One of 3 of really tough games the rams have. Then Eastern Guilford and Walkertown won't be a joke

GW is not as good as they were back in the day. Reidsville should win
I'm not sure the Rams are as good as they have been either. It's an early season game so it may come down to who makes the fewest mistakes. I'll give Reidsville a slight edge playing at home and the fact that they will have an actual game under their belt. Having seen GW last year and knowing what they return they may be one of the biggest teams Reidsville will face. They also have plenty of speed.

Their conference sucks. I lived there for years. GW has athletes but they usually lack discipline.
Funny, a lot of people say the same about Reidsville. To help out M Honcho I've made the following comparison.

Walkertown might equal Magna Vista. MV has been more consistent through the years
Rock Co equals Bassett
Carver equals Halifax
McMichael might be a little better than Tunstall
BY might equal Mecklenburg.........maybe
Morehead would compare with Martinsville if Martinsville had not left the district.

Both Reidsville and GW have challenging non conference schedules as they should.

Bottom line Kyle is those who live in glass houses should not throw stones.

You don't really know if he is a Reidsville fan or not though.

But to this match up, it's hard to call. I think you'd have to give a slight edge to Gw as of right now, until we see or hear a little more out of the rams.

Im not a Reidsville fan. I just know GW is usually a paper tiger. They almost always lose early in the playoffs to a team from Lynchburg. They are a bigger school than Reidsville they should be better but they aren't most years

GW danville has about 1,300 students, Reidsville has about 760.

GW Danville would be 6A in the new classifications in NC.

True, GW is a bigger school but official enrollment for this upcoming realignment was 1103. Salem not quite the Virginia version of Reidsville but close. Their tradition also goes back decades.
