Why does Va play there playoff games on Sat afternoons?
Bluefield researcher replied to KW23's topic in SWVA Football
I like Saturday afternoon playoff games. OK, I like all playoff games but Saturday just makes it different and special for me. -
If Graham can avoid penalties and play ball control, keeping Glenvar's offense off the field, it won't be close. I think Graham wins by 2-td's or more.

Isn't Rye Cove playing at 7:00 on Saturday? Speaking from personal experience and preference, there's nothing like playing on Saturday afternoon once November rolls around. -

Who wants to take that kind of pounding bc the opposing team knows exactly what play is coming?
-
I’d love an off the record convo with him to try and understand why he does the things he does. Can you send me the FB posts?
-
I’d love to know who’s saying on Facebook we’re attacking the players. That’s nonsense.

80s and 90s I believe were still up to the coaches in the regionals. Here single A seemed to always play on Saturday but AA would play on Friday. I can remember as a younger kid watching GC on Friday and RC or someone else Saturday. -

VHSL mandates Saturday at 2pm for semifinals. Not sure why. The regional game times are up to the teams. Best I remember from the 80s and 90s, all playoff games were on Saturday afternoons. As a kid, I just assumed it was a rule or something. I prefer Friday nights myself. -

Travel time can be an issue, I suppose. This time of year, the regional finals, state semis, etc... can be a bit of a drive. That's all I can think of, possibly. -
I love Friday Night Lights ....not mid afternoon sat games...it's not the same to me as a fan.

IDK about Ridgeview, but I've given up trying to figure Turner out. That level of head scratching is beyond me.

Maybe Union has become like Ridgeview and being competitive and playing in the region championship is good enough. Union and RV have problems but they are completely different. Union puts in the work, they lift and train and are strong on OL/DL but they have no clue how to use athletes in space. Ridgeview has had a good of athletes as anyone but they don't put the work in (lift and training) and don't build from the OL/DL out. They aren't conservative at all, but they just have some headscratchers in terms of how they get the ball to.

That Graham defense may very will propel them to a state title. As impressive a unit as I have seen in several years. 21-7 Graham.

You can't have rational conversations with irrational people. It's impossible.

People are just rude.

Thats the ones who show up for a couple years, gone a couple years & come back. Who absolutely have no clue No one & I mean NOONE is bad mouthing any kids across this board. I had back surgery back in July. This same spoken person (I assume) was in front of me at a game this season, standing, pretty much the entire game. I have no issue with someone standing up and cheering when something big happens, (but please set back down). Me and my grandson (who is autistic) couldn’t see. I’m not able to stand for long periods (and wouldn’t out of respect for those behind me) asked her to sit down, and was pretty much told no. We got up and left. I was tired of waving my body back in forth trying to look around. She knew i was mad, but didn’t care. I mean it was against central but it’s still the point.

Graham by 2 tds

Sounds like when Derek Dooley was Vols coach.

I agree with all this especially the sportsmanship. Players from both teams exhibited great sportsmanship in my opinion. Honestly, both played hard and both have tremendous athletes. I’ve not seen one Union person saying anything negative about any Union player. I don’t know what’s being said on Facebook but it’s obviously not an accurate representation of this board or the Union posters on here.
-
As an outsider I do agree with this. Having watched Union play on numerous occasions they certainly have the talent to go far, but even as a Graham fan I was wondering what they were trying to do yesterday. Yes, Union is a power team who lines up and tries to ram it down your throat....and they are very good at doing that. But there have to be times within a game when you have to mix it up given the circumstances, and I don't see Union trying that very much. They tend to just keep trying to do the same things over and over again. That works when you have greater talent than most of your opponents (and Union does have more talent than most of their opponents), but it doesn't work against teams with equal or better talent. And for the record, I've never seen a Union fan (or any fan for that matter) on this site ever attacking or criticizing the kids.

Well said. Everyone knows the talent Union has and I’ve never seen anyone go after a player. I’ve seen many posters on here from different schools compliment some of the Bear players. On another note, the sportsmanship I seen between both schools yesterday was awesome. Just about every play the opposing team was helping the other team up. That’s because of how much respect both programs have for one another.
