swva_havok_fan 1,259 Report Share Posted October 12, 2017 Per Tim Hayes on Twitter, the VHSL has announced that the state semis will be held at the higher rated (based on power points) team's facility. This should make some Union folks pleased, if you guys make it there. ;) BearDawg 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Union_Fan 2,148 Report Share Posted October 12, 2017 I think that's fair, but I believe Union would be traveling (if they make it) regardless. I just don't think the points will be there unless some Region C teams stumble in these last few weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vol Hater 276 Report Share Posted October 12, 2017 That's great. Right now I might be wrong but Glenvar is the only 1 that outpointd Union as of now but that 6 weeks away the bears have a tough region to get thru first. BearDawg 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ojrussell 61 Report Share Posted October 13, 2017 It may be between Graham and Union as to who advances . That being said, the Tornado is still in the mix.a lot of surprises may happen before it is said and done. BigWinners and EH31 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

V-Cats 472 Report Share Posted October 13, 2017 So...what happens when there's inevitably a tie in Power Points? I wouldn't think they would go by overall record, but that might be the best way Knowing the VHSL, they'll probably just choose the school that is further East and/or North Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jarhead24219 440 Report Share Posted October 15, 2017 What is this, like the 3rd or 4th year now that Graham is going to state? Come on man, they are good but you really think they will beat Richlands? If they do do you think they can run the ball on Union? Cover Cook , tackle the Qb you win .....Go Richlands Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One Giles fan said he wouldn't mind to see Graham play Appomattox, but that was the only time Graham was mentioned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have heard for YEARS NOW , that GRAHAM is going to be at the state game, maybe not on this thread , but elsewhere , Graham has a good team , they have a great player in Cook, they have a above average QB , line play.... not so good , they very well meet Appomattox in the semi's but let's play the game first before you cast the crowns at their feet. I would rate Union and Graham even on offense but Union has a better D, someone who has seen both teams "Live" should comment , not me I have just seen video Bulldogs52 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You said Graham and Union are even on offense but Union has the better defense, which is probably true even though Graham has a deceptively good defense (only allowing 10 ppg) with the best linebacker in the area and one of the best secondaries. So if you think Graham and Union are that close then why did you say "you really think they will beat Richlands?" Maybe there was talk last year about Graham going to Salem? If there was it could've been warranted since the only team they lost to made it there. Graham is hot right now which means people are going to be talking about them, but I don't think anyone is counting out Union in the region.

BigWinners 1,642 Report Share Posted October 15, 2017 I think Graham IS the best team in the region. Union is still one dimensional on offense. The Union front seven is very very good but the outside and coverage on fast athletes has been an issue and Graham has fastest athletes around. Graham is a matchup nightmare for Union. Union would have to play their best game to beat Graham. Graham would need to play very well to beat Union as well and Union would have advantage at LOS but G-Men are rolling right now. FTR, Graham crushes Richlands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think any objective fan would agree. The G-Men offense is more diverse and has that big play ability. Unions better on defense, but there is holes. But on the whole it's a great unit that has smothered teams all year, holding multiple teams under 100 total yards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
