WINSTON-SALEM, North Carolina -- Quarterback Kameron Smith of Winston-Salem State had an extra bounce in his
step Thursday afternoon when he trotted onto the practice field just below
Bowman Gray Stadium.
Smith, a senior and one of the best quarterbacks in program history, will
need that bounce again today when WSSU plays West Texas A&M in the
semifinals of the Division II football playoffs. Kickoff is set for 6:30 at
Bowman Gray.
“I’m been thinking about this game a lot,” said Smith, who is 30-3 as a
starter with career totals of 93 touchdown passes and 7,038 passing yards. “I
actually had a dream the other night about playing my last home game. The dream
turned out good because we won.”
To advance to the national-championship game for the first time, the Rams
(13-0) will have to control a very good opposing defensive line. The Buffaloes
(12-2) have a Division II-best 58 sacks and have put pressure on quarterbacks
all season.
“I might have to bring the ball down and run a little more, but we’ll be
ready,” Smith said.
