jarhead24219 440 Report Share Posted September 11, 2017 Looks wet for Friday,the weather may play a part in this one, I can see RV having problems on the grass, I am not sure if they have been on grass yet SHELBY CO. KY ???I see UNION finding a QB this week,MITCHELL is a great runner but the D will stack up when he is back there,and I think its unfair to his college outlook to expose him to injury there.Qualls can sling the ball but needs some time back there to develope his game, the other kid ,Demyia (spelling sucks)seemed to get into the flow of the game at LC, and he has some wiggle in him as seen in games with VA HIGH and BETSY . I just hope OWENS is back, we need him on D BAD. FULLHOUSE untill the passing game gets better, JENKINS LOOKED REALLY GOOD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We played a scrimmage at Lebanon and Norton, so if you count those, we have played on grass this year. 20 hours ago, BigWinners said: Okay, wanna do a signature or avatar bet? A friendly wager, nothing malicious. I'd bet that he won't top 80 yards as long as the Union first team sees the field. You win, I'll put up a RV avatar for a week. I win, you put up a Union one for a week. I'm sure the kid is a good back, and I'm sure the RV OL isn't bad or anything, but Richlands as a team had less than 100 yards, and JIB who ran it like 50 times had basically nil. Unions far from a perfect team, but the rush defense is outstanding. I was going to say 75 yards or more. Shoot man, if you hook me up with one of those sweet "U" polos, I'll even wear it and take a picture in it if I lose the bet. 18 hours ago, Unionguy_2017 said: When was the last time Union lost a regular season game at the park? I wanna say 2013. I'm not saying we'll win the game by any means, and we might get blown out... I just don't think we'll get shut out.

SXSW 557 Report Share Posted September 11, 2017 Union is a championship caliber team but without their starting QB they are still very good and will make a deep playoff run even without Turner, if Union wants establish dominance in the district it starts Friday. I don't see any way Ridgeview can keep this close. Union 56-6. Oh and never underestimate the pressure of having a D1 player on a team, my nephew played high school football in Alabama and had several of his teammates go play D1 ( Bama, Auburn, Troy, Mississippi St.) (nephew played at North Alabama) he said the whole teams knows that college scouts are in the stands and they started trying to impress them instead of taking care of their football business.

Hah well I can't swing one of those polos, but if you wanna do the avatar bet I'm down with 75 yards against the first team. It's tough to do a bet if the game gets out of hand and the second and third string guys play significant time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jarhead24219 440 Report Share Posted September 14, 2017 I can see RV bring the house on every down, kinda like they did at CENTRAL, a run blitz type D and say to thier cover guys you are on your own.This will be very true if MITCHELL lines up in the wildcat, if he lines up as a tight end they will run blitz, and if he lines up as a wide out the will have some kinda blitz designed to put pressure on the QB on passing situations.UNION will stick with what they have done all year, hopefully they will find someone at safety taller than 5 foot nothing, maybe Owens will be back to take that spot back. Who will be at QB????Maybe QUALLS or the other young man who has some wiggle in his hips. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Union_Fan 2,154 Report Share Posted September 14, 2017 Weather is looking perfect now. Hoping that the 'Pack brings a lot of fans. Regardless of how it turns out, two 3-0 teams coming in has to build some hype, right?

Bearcat Dad 439 Report Share Posted September 14, 2017 From what I've seen on RV, they are much improved from last year. I'm feeling a close score at halftime turns into a 3 score win for the Bears. Even without Turner, Union is still the SWVA measuring stick because of 82 and the defensive front 7. Union 38 RV 17 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swva_havok_fan 1,261 Report Share Posted September 14, 2017 I liked rvtne215's take of the game on the podcast this week... and if you want to know what that was, go listen to it. And with that, there you have my unapologetic shill of the SWVA Sports Pod for this week. :D Ryan4VT 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jarhead24219 440 Report Share Posted September 14, 2017 If Union is to make a run , it will be because they cope and close ranks they succeed with a QB this week, look for the play calling to be more diverse, we found out that Qualls can sling it last week, now he has to put some touch on it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CriticalNoise 182 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2017 I will be the first to say I underestimated RV, they are a solid team and I expect them to finish 2nd in the district.
