Galax isn’t gonna score 42 on Holston. They’ll probably win, but I doubt the total points hits 42, much less Galax’s total.
Game was 51_21 .I said 42-12 . Galax wins by 30 as I predicted. Probably more if they kept their starters in. Galax played a tougher schedule .Congrats to Holston on a great season.
I know Ridgeview has speedy and solid WRS and a solid QB. Lots of talk about whether Graham can cover them or not cover them. I've seen zero talk about the pressure the RV QB will be under when he drops back to throw. You will see some freshmen come out in him and mistakes made in this game. He will not have seen that much pressure and as good of a front 4 all year long, and that includes Abingdon, Union, Central, and Bluefield. I guarantee you that after the game, we will be talking about the immense pressure he was under when he dropped back to throw it. He hasn't seen anything close to what he will see.
I'm going to lean the other way and say all of that pressure is going to allow him to make some great plays and give momentum to Ridgeview in key time points of the game.
The TSSAA playoffs roll on. This week is the Quarterfinal Round for the public schools and the Semifinal round for the private schools.
Region 1 has few survivors left.
In 1A: Coalfield (10-2) make the long road trip to Roan Mountain to take on The Highlanders of Cloudland (11-1)
In 2A: Hampton (10-2) the other Carter County team still playing travels to Oneida (9-3) to take on the Indians.
In 4A: The rematch is Greeneville as the (12-0) Greene Devils take on the (11-1) Elizabethton Cyclones. These two teams own the last 4 Class 4A Championships and the winner of this one will probably win it again.
There are no 3A, 5A or 6A region 1 teams left...Good luck to the final 4 remaining!
In Division 2: 1A University School of Jackson takes on Donaldson Christian and MTCS plays Nashville Christian in the semifinals.
2A This bracket is probably the best left in any class in the state. Lausanne Colligate plays Christ Presbyterian and Lipscomb Academy plays Davidson Academy
3A McCallie from Chattanooga takes on Pope John Paul in semifinal and Montgomery Bell Academy plays Christian Brothers from Memphis in the other semifinal.

10 years from now will we look back at 2020 high school football in SWVA and say we should have played like Northeast Tenn or will Northeast Tenn say we should have locked down like Va ?? Thoughts??
