The Green Waves are coming off their first State Championship win in the VHSL Class .5A since 1939. JM was the 2022 WV Single A runner-ups.  Both are undefeated and haven’t played in several years, looking to bring the county line rivalry back. Can one man be enough for Narz to pull off a victory yet again? Will JM make a statement that Giles County football is weak?

James Monroe is a lot better up front than Narrows, but Narrows is more athletic.  This game comes down to 2 things 

1.  Can Narrows OL give the QB and WR's enough time to run their routes?  If JM doesn't get pressure, Narrows will have success in the air and in open space once the WR's catch the ball.

2. Can Narrows get enough stops defensively against JM and get their offense off the field?  For Narrows to win, they need to get a decent lead early on and force JM to play from behind.  Same for JM, if they control the ball and get some early stops against Narrows and the mismatch on the LOS is so overwhelmingly obvious by the mid first quarter, it's a bad sign for Narrows, and JM will win.  There's going to be a mismatch on the LOS with JM and Narrows, and Narrows is outmatched, but the question is how big of gap is the mismatch?  Can Narrows athletisicm be enough to overcome JM's better lineplay?

Calpreps has it 35-31 in favor of J. Monroe.
