I have no doubt that Russell will be prepared with a defensive schem to try an stop that running game, whether it will be affective or not is the question?

That is the question...along with will Russell be able to find a way to move the ball against Greenup. The past few years, it has gotten frustrating as a fan to watch Russell beat their head against a brick wall running the Wing-T with personnel that couldn't compete against defenses like Ashland and Ironton. The way everyone is hyping Greenup, it sounds like that scene could be replayed come Saturday night. I have a bit more hope this year, though, that Russell at least has another "trick in the bag" so to speak with the shotgun spread formation they've shown a couple of times. It may or may not work, but all we can ask for is the willingness to try. Heck, Greenup may not be disciplined enough to stop the Wing-T attack. We'll see.

As for Russell stopping Greenup's running game...it sounds like BadCat is suggesting Russell might need 12 or 13 in the box in order to get it done. I guess a Russell fan can only hope that Greenup fumbles early and often.
