Someone ,I thought you,said the dogs offense was going to get exposed against Havelock. I do think the difference in that game was turnovers. But Havelock did limit bulldog offense. The Rams took away the outside. The Dogs did gash the Rams inside the tackles. Had more offense than the Rams. If the dogs holds on to the ball, we win.
I actually had stated that I felt WRH offense would get exposed against Havelock. It was not that I thought Wallace offense was not good, I just felt, and in some ways still feel that through Wallace's first few games that there defense was so dominate, and they jumped on teams so early that allot of those earlier squads gave up. Someone brought out that Wallace had averaged over 400 yards of offense, so I know they are good.
Against a Good Havelock squad and good Northside Team, I definitely think even a great defense will get scored upon by these teams, and with a squad like Northside who's coach is a former semi-pro QB his squads are going to have a passing attack to keep him in any ball game. Add that to fact that I just don't think WRH has anyone who can hold #6 down when he is lined up at receiver (WRH still has the defense to pressure QB however).
First couple of games Wallace could turn the ball over and literally get the ball back by forcing the other team to a three and out. Against Northside they will make you pay like Havelock did, and even though I have no problems with running the ball, I do know that playing from behind becomes a problem running. Your just not going to put up 40 points against a Northside or Havelock off of there mistakes on offense.
Still got WRH winning this one because one they are talented and two they will be extra motivated after losing last week. I could say the same for Northside losing to New Hanover, but that loss was expected just like WRH losing to Wake Forest is expected. Northside actually got allot of props for the way they hung in there with New Hanover.
This has potential to turn into a matchup of 2a and 3a representatives from east.
