I don't think anybody that matters is taking anybody else lightly at this point in the season.  I know that Tony P. and company preach the importance of respecting your opponent each time they play.  I'm sure Union does the same.  If I'm Graham or Union, you can at least see a chink in the armour of Radford and that gives a little confidence, I believe.  These last couple of weeks (including tomorrow's game) are going to be one of the most exciting in AA in quite a few years.

I've been watching Radford all year because of the hype around them, the QB and the coach.
I never said Glenvar was a great team nor tough opponent. That's partially my point on Radford. If you watch the first game, Glenvar did not play to their strengths, they played to Radford's. It was very obvious, just watching on film, that Glenvar wasn't going to out athlete Radford. They tried to matchup and made lots of mistakes, got down early and wasn't built to play from behind.
They learned from that, and you saw the results tonight.
Alleghany did the exact same thing. Run for 3-7 yards a clip, and then get cute and try to pass. And their QB was not very good.
Tazewell was a much better team than given credit. Unfortunately, I didn't watch much film at all on them, so I didn't know what to expect. With the right coaching and conditioning, I think that Tazewell had the players to beat both Graham and Union this year.
Kind of reminds me of Graham in 15-17 with Richlands. They were much more talented than those scores suggested, but they turned the page in '18.

A lot of people have been waiting for Radford to implode all season, but with their easy schedule it wasn't likely to happen in the regular season.
Appo is not good this year. So, for Radford to only be winning by 8 in the 4th, I absolutely thought that might be their implosion game because a legit title contender should have been blowing out the Raiders at that point.
As for Riverheads, there's no reason to pay much attention to them at this point. Union/Graham have to get past Saturday first, and then worry about Radford, not the Gladiators. That's why all the focus was on the Radford/Glenvar game.
Union/Graham can worry about them in 2 weeks...if they get past Radford AND Riverheads gets past Poquoson.

Dropped what should’ve been another pick in the 4th

It was a one score game going into the 4th. Appo was weak on the line and didn't have the horses to keep up this year.
Radford is winning on the talent of the QB alone. Union and Graham will both win the LOS and both will have the speed to slow down the QB. He'll still make plays, but he won't look super human like he has in these blowout games.
He threw 3 picks against a very slow Highlander team tonight.

Wow Glenvar has balls.

Yes! I'm imagining it into existence right now! Lol

Let’s gooooo Glenvar! 😃

Rumor has it that since the Michigan coach has the week off, he's coming to Bullitt Park to scout. He heard about all of this cheating and had to get in on it.

I heard Ric Flair decided to lead the Bears into the park riding the fire truck and instead of the band playing at halftime, they’ll be a ring set up on the 50 yard line & with Flair and Michigan coach as guest refs , all the Richlands applicants will wrestle, single elimination , winner takes the reins at the Big R. Wooooooo! 

But wait, can anyone verify they actually have applicants? 

No. They only do regular season games. They probably don't want to pay the fees associated with playoffs.

Geez! Throw us under the bus why don't you.
Steal a few passes and run a few trick plays and everyone calls you a cheat.
Makes me wanna dress up like Ric Flair and make a video about McDonald's looking uniforms. 😂

I know, right??
Let's spice it up.
Everyone knows that Union should be playing GC this week. Devils had that game in the bag, tied 7-7 at halftime with the GMen until...they hit the turbo button on Clements in the 2nd half.
That's cheating! I know it, you know it, we all know it. I say, bring on GC! Seriously, I'd rather play GC. Can Graham give them a free spin or something?

Yea I’m quite disappointed in this thread 😂 probably the least amount of post on a Union/Graham thread ever!

You can tell when a game is going to be close by the lack of smack talk and team bragging. 
Union and Graham folks too scared to say much because they don't want to wash down that Thursday turkey with some Saturday evening crow. Haha

Oh yeah we’ve not even started throwing out assistant coaches names yet.  So much more advice for us to share with the new coach 

Union's kicking woes reminded me of a Tom Turner quote. A reporter at media day asked him if he had any kickers. He said,
“Yeah, I’ve got six of them, but none of them are worth a sh--.”

You win 🏆🤣😂🤣

Nicely played Sir. Nicely played.

Are you talking about the video about how great Graham is and how Union is really the underdog Saturday?
The one talking about how the GMen could stay up all night Friday celebrating their certain victory at The Park and they'd still cruise to an easy win?
That one? I'll try to find it! 🙂
