Thoughts on this game. Hoping the Vikings can continue the smart football with no turnovers and less penalties. Hoping this will be a great football game. First time they have played each other since 2014 I think.
North Stokes at West Stokes
- Thread starter tarheel1970
- Start date
I'd say North comes back to Earth this week, however if they can control the clock like South Stokes did against West and play sound defense they can keep it close.
Great start for North Stokes but I think West will win. Tough start but they lost some good players and coaches. I hope its a competitive game and stays injury free.
I know they lost the Diamonts on the staff and a good quarterback. Did they lose more coaches?
Not sure I was mainly referring to the QB and some skill players and the big boy in the middle on D
They lost quite a bit with at least two big lineman and #1 that ran several kicks back. They still have a lot of talent and the freshmen class is really good.
? is what has UpChurch done to make adjustments? On offense they have too much talent to be wasting it. The younger 2 classes minus the freshman aren't as good as last year's senior group or this one but they gotta find a way to make use of what they have. The big boy on D that graduated is a huge loss, once they got him over from South he helped boost that defense especially last year. They just gotta find a new ID, this week may be the start.
The Vikings are off to a great start but I think West is just two or three steps ahead of all the schools they have played combined. It would be awesome to see an upset but Brown's way to good a back for N Stokes to handle, Parsons as well.
I need to pull my tape of that 2005 game out.. that was a barn burner but North fought for that win. Classic Sessoms ball there.

YVC cellar dweller tour ended last week. Hats off to NS players and coaches and I hope they get 3-4 more wins in conference.
That's funny but glad NS is off to good start. Be interesting to see if West shows improvement this week. Slasher the wheels came off early against the cards
Not much you can do against a team like East.. no one in the area will beat them unless something crazy happens like Gosnell or Boaz going down. Even then it will take a perfect effort.
The hard stretch of the schedule's gone I think we can compete with people especially in conference now if we keep our heads on the grind and get healthier.. thank goodness for the bye week. That's the only good part as a result of North Forsyth getting put in the conference, we don't have the last week of the year bye anymore lol.
That was very smart of North Stokes's AD to do.. that's exactly who they should play every year. Those 3, Patrick Co, and maybe a lower end academy or two. They won't go winless anymore unless they field just a really bad team.
They got a great shot to beat Patrick and Bishop at least, that should get them a playoff spot. The South game might be close but I think Dave has them in the right direction.. Prep may be close if they fall apart but right now they look pretty good. We will see on Friday I guess.
