FalconVoice 38 Report Share Posted November 7, 2016 Buckingham came to Richlands on a Friday night last year. They requested the Friday game. Didn't want to break up the routine. Coach Reed did the same when Abingdon had to travel up to Broadway a few years back too. Past a certain distance, coaches get their choice, and usually I've found they really value their Saturdays.

Ryan4VT 4,550 Report Share Posted November 7, 2016 Friday nights for the first two rounds at least. I can handle Saturday's for the final and semi-final game, and mayyyyybe a quarterfinal game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK Ryan, give it up, where do you need to be the next two Friday's? Seems you get your way on Friday/Saturday games:-) Seriously though work kills any Friday nights for me. By the time I get home and get ready, I would be pushing it to make it to any Friday game. Also, It's something about the glaring sun and dead grass that I like about Saturday playoffs.

Also, It's something about the glaring sun and dead grass that I like about Saturday playoffs. Well I write for thekeyplay.com so I have to cover VT games this weekend and in two weeks (what would be the 3rd round game). So it would be super helpful for me to not have to miss the Richlands game because it's on the same day as a college game. Friday = high school, Saturday = college, Sunday = NFL. Let's all keep it this way haha. cowboysnskynyrd, dshreeves, FalconVoice and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redtiger 1,740 Report Share Posted November 8, 2016 Saturday's are for playoffs, the only good thing about Friday playoff games is that I can catch 2 games a weekend! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWVAFB 218 Report Share Posted November 8, 2016 I personally hate Friday night playoff games. But that's just my preference. I am glad just to be in the playoffs.....not complaining about the time...That's like A homeless man complaining about his steak someone bought him, not cooked right! No hate here..........

Leatherhead Larry 530 Report Share Posted November 8, 2016 100% glad to be in the playoffs, not hating on that. I just never liked Friday night playoff games as a player (only played 1 vs Powell Valley) the rest were Saturday games. Saturday games have a special feel to them. Plus I grew up watching GC in Saturday playoff games. They hold a special place in my heart. redtiger and Gobigred94 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falcon Mania 235 Report Share Posted November 8, 2016 I think playoffs on Saturday's is perfectly alright. Besides, teams better acclimatize to playing during the day and on Saturday soon enough because, If you do make to the state championship, it's a day game, on a Saturday, probably pretty early.

Actually you should have grown up with GC playing Friday night playoff games the first 2 rounds and Saturday games at the state level. In the old days Region IV played their games on Fridays while Region D played on Saturday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leatherhead Larry 530 Report Share Posted November 9, 2016 Nope I remember way more Saturday day games as a kid. Maybe cause of bigger games. My favorite may have been 03 vs Radford in the State Semis (though it was a Sunday game) I also remember eating school pizza at Haysi while listening to the PA guy breathe through the mic the whole entire game. Haha. But I remember a few Friday night playoff games but not many. (Maybe due to the fact I was too young to remember most of em). But once I started realizing what was going on as far as playoffs and win and advance goes, most of those games were on Saturday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1inStripes 932 Report Share Posted November 9, 2016 You must be younger than I thought you were even. I figured you remembered those teams of the mid/late 90s as a little guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
