Good luck to Richlands, George Wythe, and Blacksburg this week!  Hope all of you win.  Someone has to take down Goliath, why not you.

Good luck to all our SWVA teams!  thoughts and prayers for all for safe game with no injuries and safe travels to those who must.

I find that hard to believe Ryan.  Those guys will have to play some to get reps in right?  I mean Richlands can beat Battle but to say the playmakers are taking the night off in the playoffs might be a little much.  Battle isn't going to be like playing against a Holston or Rye Cove.  Battle will show up with every intention of winning the game and advancing.  I've said it before and I will say it again.  Never look past an opponent and assume you are advancing, that's when things tend to jump up and bite you.

New Facilities?  Oh you mean the new locker room.  Yeah it looked pretty nice.  The playing field itself needs some work in my opinion.  That has to be the hardest and lumpy field we played on this year.  Even then it's not a bad place to watch a football game. Tazewell certainly deserves to be better than what they have been.

i think this post may be premature.  Theres a lot of football to be played before Dec.  Strange things happen.  Someone gets upset or goes into a game looking ahead and doesn't take care of business can throw the dynamic off.
 
I will go with the lets see who all is still standing in a couple of weeks before talking about who wins state

Maybe give up 7-14 with the subs in

That's the same thing that was said about Clintwoow and Haysi consolidating. Err. Ridgeview

Abingdon 45
Northside 14

Unofficial 3A West matchups as I have them:
 
#1 Rustburg vs. #16 Cave Spring
#2 Brookville vs. #15 Tunstall
#3 Abingdon vs. #14 Northside
#4 Staunton River vs. #13 Western Albemarle
#5 Magna Vista vs. #12 Waynesboro
#6 Heritage vs. #11 Hidden Valley
#7 Lord Botetourt vs. #10 Blacksburg
#8 Spotswood vs. #9 Turner Ashby
 
If I have these correct, if Abingdon gets through Northside, then they would play winner of Heritage and Hidden Valley the following week in Abingdon.

I'm very curious to see what the 3A bracket looks like. Definitely going to be pulling for our local 2A and 1A West teams. Go get em boys!!!

Thank you VHSLhelper.  Very much appreciated that you would take time out of your day to post this for those of us being the only 3A West team around here in the playoff picture.  Makes a lot more sense now.

I'm of course pulling for JSB to pull off an upset tonight for the points.  But I'm not sure that can happen with their QB being out.  Tipton definitely was and is the cog that made the offense work.  Not saying JSB doesn't have the athletes but good lord losing your starting QB and going up against Union.  That's a tall order for a backup QB with little to no game experience.
 
Union  49

Both teams playing for seeding in the playoffs.  Should be a good game.  I honestly believe Abingdon probably is the better team but Marion has been rolling of late and appears to be back on track from their down year last season.  This by no means is going to be any kind of a push over for either team.  Abingdon can not be looking ahead and Marion will have to play a flawless game.

I wish 3A west had a guru like Union_Fan to figure out our scenarios.  Its pretty tight at the top 1.1 points separate #1-#3.

Thank you.

Official ones are out..

I feel like I sacrificed 25 brain cells and 3 I.Q. points reading this thread through.
