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! 🙂

I'd say the best game of the season hasn't been played as of November 21.

I went back and watched the Tazewell/Union NFHS broadcast with the Tazewell Bulldog Radio commentary overlayed.
Good job gentlemen! I think you strike the right tone in-between fair, independent and homerism. It's a balancing act to support your team without being obnoxious, and you guys are right in the middle.
I appreciate the kind words for the Union players, fans and community. Glad you found everyone welcoming and easy to work with.
I also want to compliment you on your passion for the Tazewell community and the players. Union and Tazewell definitely have that in common!

I give them a 1 in 8 chance.

Graham and Union match up really well this year. First time in a while that they may be equal on overall team speed and athletic ability. I give Union the edge on the line, but that's not a gimmie either. Unlike years past, I don't see Graham having the same level of dual threat at the QB spot.
I understand that Clements is healthy and available this go around and that will be an obvious factor. I see the Bears focusing on the run with a possible spy on Clements from a rearranged defensive unit along with some periodic blitzes on the QB. I'm not sure how Clements will be utilized this week. I noticed some wildcat against GC, but I don't think that will be as affective against the Bears D. I see him getting productive yards from misdirection or catching out of the backfield. Bears will have to tackle well in space or he's going to the house.
Defending the passing attack of Tazewell was incredibly helpful for Union, and will give them much more confidence defending the pass against Graham. Very interested to see the O and D strategy for the GMen this week. How do they change things around having Clements back? On the flip side, how will Union strategize on D to contain him?
This will be a chess match for sure.

I'm sure Lebanon radio will have the game but it will also be broadcast on WLSD, wlsdradio.com

Would have made a very deep run in 04 had they been classified correctly in D1 instead of losing to state runner up PV in D2 playoffs. 

1st Reg championship game since 2002. Made it to semis in 2000, lost to Bath Co.

Thank you

Could be...

Interesting scene just before Union's kickoff after the 2nd TD.
Tazewell lady entered the gate, and was almost on the field giving the ref what for. It was bad enough that the refs directed Union coaching staff to call the police.
The lad goes back into the stands, takes her toboggan off, covers up with a blanket, then takes her green sweatshirt off.
Some Tazewell people met the cops on the ramp and started pointing towards the flagpole, seemingly indicating she "went that way."
The lady put her toboggan back on and headed towards concessions. Police went the opposite direction.
It was entertaining for a few minutes. Haha 

He’s going to Richlands

Well Union is screwed 

Thank you for your concern, #6 Brock is my son . He took a helmet just below the knee to the perineal  nerve on the side of his right leg . His leg went numb from the knee down and he didn’t have any feeling . Hopefully it’s just like a stinger . Still can not put any weight on it . 
 I would like to say thank you to the Union team and especially their coaches , they all came over and wished Brock well . Coach Turner spoke to Brock also . 
 We left it all on the field when the majority of people said we had no chance . 
 These “Dawgs” played their hearts out , good luck next week to both teams . 

Tazewell fans should be incredibly proud of their team. From the start, you could tell that they were ready to play and believed they could win.
Creasy was spot on for the short and intermediate passing. I don't know how many long passes he tried, but he truly didn't have much time to wait for receivers to get down field.
I think I was more impressed with the D. They were quick and swarmed to the ball.
Dogs had their opportunities to take the lead, and the Bears had the opportunity to score more points. Combination of events prevented that for both teams.
The INT at the goal line was a huge momentum swing to the Bears, and the final one of the game. Tazewell had a few swings earlier.
Great game by both teams and thought it was pretty clean too.
Would still love to know what the Tazewell lady was blessing the ref out over.

Big shout out to Union and their fans for the great atmosphere and the sportsmanlike behavior from players and fans.  Very good venue, nice crowd and respectful fans.  Great programs do it the right way, I commend Union and their team.
No trash talking coaches or trash talking players and fans, just good football.  It is appreciated, we don't always get that treatment when we play away.

Someone at the fence said it was a Tazewell players mother but no clue what pissed her off 

Union has a quality that most teams around here don’t have.  They know how to put a game a way in the 4th qtr. better than anyone.  

Is 12-6 not a blowout?? haha
Tazewell is playing hard today!

One thing to keep in mind. You don't get near as many holding or unsportsmanlike penalties when you're winning by 40 points. Graham hasn't had much competition since Pulaski.
Union and Graham are very similar with the penalties and tight games usually bring them out.

Thanks 

Be sure to give us a scouting report too!
