The most bizarre game in this lopsided rivalry was in 1975.  In the final game of the season, Richlands (8-1) traveled to Marion (7-1-1) with both losing earlier to Gate City.  Both teams had prolific offenses and stingy defenses.  A dense fog enveloped Hurricane Stadium to the point that the radio announcers could only guess at what was happening.  What was to be an epic match-up turned into 48 minutes of miscues and chaos. Final score: Marion 2 Richlands 0.

Blues by 24ish would be my guess. Having the homecoming parade at 4:30 on the same day as the game could throw the schedule off and they may come out off-kilter. But I think Richlands ultimately wins.

 

Wow.  You nailed it!
