MCHS looks to Habersham for needed W

It’s a redemption week for the Madison County varsity football team.

Coming off a loss to Loganville, the Red Raiders (1-3, 1-3) need a win over Habersham County (0-4, 0-4), but head coach Randell Owens knows those other Raiders from Mt. Airy need a “W” too.

Comparing Habersham to a wounded animal, Owens said winless Habersham will play with their backs against the wall, similar to Winder-Barrow a couple of weeks ago.

The real question is if Madison County can overcome Habersham’s option running attack, which Owens said the Red Raiders have had trouble replicating in practice.

“We would have been better prepped last year when we had more of an option team,” he said. “We will just see what happens and work on fixing ourselves. Win, lose, or draw you get ready for the next game. We can’t sit around and pout, you got to go back to work.”

Madison County is on the road this week, heading north to Habersham Central for the 7:30 p.m. kickoff.
