Falcon Mania 235 Report Share Posted November 13, 2018 Round 2 and back to the scene of the crime so to speak. Falcons been rolling with the run game and ferocious defense. Botty been dominating teams with a power run game. I know nobody will give the Falcons a chance and for sure they will be underdogs. But haven't the been that all season. Who you got? I will take the Falcons in a close one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SWVAgridiron 1,469 Report Share Posted November 13, 2018 Abingdon has finally found their stride but they will need to play an A+ game and LB will need to make many mistakes for them to have a chance. This will be their toughest opponent yet. LB wins by 4 tds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hokie101 153 Report Share Posted November 13, 2018 LB wins 34-14!!! This is the type of game where Abingdon's schedule does them no favors. They haven't faced a team of this quality since Pulaski. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigtom 42 Report Share Posted November 13, 2018 This is what I have been saying,,,,Abingdon playing in a AA district helps them none when it comes to playing teams in playoffs within the AAA ranks but everyone was so quick to defend them being in the Mountain 7.

I agree with them being in the M7 based on geography. What they need to do is try and schedule bigger schools for all of their OOC games, which they may have done this year I'm not for sure.

I believe their others were Pulaski and Hidden Valley. I could be missing another one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Falcon Mania 235 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2018 There is no doubt the Falcons will be considered underdogs this week. Just like every week before and yet they seem to come ready to play. Lord Botetourt will be a tough task for any team. I'm still going with the home town boys.

Hokiebird7 1,416 Report Share Posted November 13, 2018 Abingdon could catch LB looking forward to a possible 3rd matchup with Northside next week.. But I don't think it will matter....LB is a heck of a physical team...just ask Bluefield Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gridiron60 2,555 Report Share Posted November 13, 2018 I would like Abingdon to win but I'm not sure how they accomplish that against LB. I've seen Abingdon play and Bluefield. If Bluefield didn't beat LB, I don't believe Abingdon will. With that said, it's the playoffs and nothing is a given. I give kudos to Abingdon's head coach coming on board with the season nearly starting and getting them to this point. Bigrhsfan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F@lcon 47 Report Share Posted November 14, 2018 I am sure LB is very physical and I truly believe abingdon is an obvious underdog. One can argue the whole 2a/3a thing forever and neither side will change their minds. One advantage I see is that LB can’t really gauge what abingdon can/can’t do. They see the early season losses including the hidden valley game so they think it’s a cakewalk. Then they see the later season quality wins against union and Ridgeview and a little uncertainty has to creep in. Abingdon will need to be playing at the top of their game and get some big plays early to have a shot. As Rick Moranis told his team on Little Giants, you can beat anyone “one time”.

LB has had the toughest schedule in all of 3a. They will come prepared, and they will be physical at the point of attack. I’m sure Coach Harless will be able to gauge what Abington can or can’t do. Look at the Bluefield game as a prime example. LB will come to play, and will send Abingdon home, 55-16. starcityfootballfan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only know that they requested the move. I've heard everything from travel expenses and gate revenue to better competition in girls' sports. I'm not really sure of the exact reason.

Cause M7 teams have the better concession stands. Only joking. I'm not sure why we were put in the M7 other than that is the way it shook out in the previous redistricting through VHSL.
