It is time for another Greenwood vs Louisville play-off match up. Coach Gatewood is preparing to take his players down to RE Hinze stadium where things aren’t friendly. Can the Bulldogs rally up enough to get this win? Let’s talk about it.
Greenwood
Greenwood is going to have to find a way to move the ball on this very good Louisville defense. It is hard to get anything done with the Wildcat bunch. I think their best option tonight is to take Gabriel Moore Gabriel Moore 6'4" | 245 lbs | DL Louisville | 2023 State MS out of the game. Find a way to make him somewhat of a non factor. He is the heart and soul of their defense. A lot of their big plays feed off of his high motor in the trenches.
When Greenwood feels the need to pass the ball they need attack the zone behind the LBs and right in front of the safeties. That is where Louisville has known to be weak in that area.
Alex Larry is going to need to be dominant tonight. Just like Gabe Moore is the heart of Louisville’s defense, he is the heart of Greenwood’s defense. He cannot let his team make many mistakes tonight.
Louisville
Louisville is loaded with talent. On offense they are going to have a lot of options. That’s the way their offensive coordinator likes to get things done. He does not mind letting his talent flourish. I’ve seen Christavious Savior Christavious Savior 6'0" | 160 lbs | DB Louisville | 2023 State MS hit the field on offense this year. It’s decisions like that that shows me they have the talent as well as the leaders to coach the talent. Jykevious Goss and Jaden Triplett are also two more guys they rely on when they need big plays. They also have Xavier Hunt who has performed well this year. Greenwood has a lot to be worried about this week.
Louisville’s defense has guys that are aggressive, angry and fast. Laterrius Haynes is one of the most versatile defenders around the state of Mississippi. We all know their defensive backs can play with anybody. Kenneth Hill is also a big playmaker in their secondary. I love his style of play.
