Union_Fan 2,155 Report Share Posted October 16, 2017 I predict that a thread for this game is unnecessary. Battle wins. Grapeape and starcityfootballfan 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grapeape 259 Report Share Posted October 16, 2017 Reports indicated 11 players injured / not dressed, with Calhoun added to the list after reinjuring the ankle... I can't imagine 12 kids on the sideline injured. Never been part of a team at any level that had so many. Anyway... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redtiger 1,740 Report Share Posted October 16, 2017 Prediction, beat down. Battle has team speed, GC does not. Battle runs a tricky to defend offense, GC is short on starters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The count is actually up to 13. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of history being made for the GC program this season, and not in a good way for GC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leatherhead Larry 530 Report Share Posted October 17, 2017 GC has no answer for Scarbrough. He, like Ward for South, will be able to do what he pleases vs GC. Sad, sad, times at Gate City. Hopefully just 2 more games of this mess. JSB 45 GC 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jason 299 Report Share Posted October 18, 2017 I was surprised to learn about the concussion protocol. If a kid complains at all they had or have a headache then they are automatically on concussion protocol and can't play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

odps 0 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2017 My prediction for this Friday night’s game, JSB vs GC: Home side will be packed. Visitor side, not so much… There will be a Student lead prayer before the game. People will stand as Battle’s band plays the National Anthem… There will be Jalapeño peppers available for your hotdog in the concession stand… If a GC player is injured, ALL Battle players will take a knee... after the game, GC fans will blame the coach. Battle’s Score will be high. GC, not so much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grapeape 259 Report Share Posted October 19, 2017 GC has a couple injuries and having to frequently shuffle the lineup stifles progress. Fortunately we have an innovate young coach and a talented administration. Battle 63 GC 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odps 0 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2017 for what it's worth... Bristol Herald Courier's prediction: Gate City at John Battle Last meeting: Gate City 16, John Battle 13 (Oct. 21, 2016 in Gate City, Va.) The news is all grim for Gate City. The Blue Devils own the longest losing streak in Southwest Virginia at nine games and have been outscored by an average of 38-7. To pull off an upset, GC sophomore quarterback Jon Sallee must post huge passing numbers. … John Battle is 2-35 all-time against Gate City, but there will be a celebration tonight on Battle Hill. Look for another huge performance from fearless John Battle quarterback Lane Scarbrough as the Trojans top the 34-point mark for the fifth time this season. Prediction: John Battle 35, Gate City 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leatherhead Larry 530 Report Share Posted October 20, 2017 I wonder if Akers ever had his computer fixed this week. Heard earlier in the week no team film study because, “my computer is tore up. You’re responsible for watching film on your own this week” - Akers Some coach that is. You have the entire school at your disposal, plenty of computers and projectors in the classrooms. God forbid we can’t fit our 25 players into a classroom to go over film on John Battle. Heard he told a certain player yesterday, “You’re not hurt this week” when the kid has limped around all last week at practice and found a way to play with heavy tape on his ankle trying to go, and has limped around all this week. I have even heard Akers has yet to go see Brady Webb since his surgery. If so, that speaks volumes on what kind of guy we have leading our program. Especially when a former GC coach went to see him the night of his injury. Sorry if I upset an assistant coach again with my post. Sad, sad times for GC football.
