Burton's playoffs stop here! Patrick Henry 28-13

Everyone is excited tho see how Giles is going to hold up against Appomattox. This will be close........

In the first quarter!!

Appomattox 35 - 6

I gotta take Grayson for the upset in this one. They are on a roll right now!

33 - 27

This is going down in the history books folks! If you think you know football, this is one of those games that might just prove you wrong! This may not come down to the best personnel, or the best game plan. This one may come down to heart, and home field advantage! 

Union 14-13

Grayson by a whisker!

35-34

Marion may squeak one out this time. 21-20 hurricanes

Look for this to be a shootout! 42-40 Graham.

Eastside is a much improved team. Eastside 28 to 13.

I'm pretty sure PH proves to be too much for TW. PH wins 35-14

I'm calling it 28- 7 union. Sorry blue but with that front 4, and all the weapons union has, don't think this will be a game.

I totally agree. I think first round losses in playoffs goes back a little farther than a year, lol, of course with the exception of the Appomattox miracle.  This playoff system is great, you can beat three very bad 2A teams (no disrespect intended) and a couple respectable 1A teams and your talking playoffs. Playoffs!  You said Playoffs.  For the most part seems like Gate City folks are ready to run Mr. Akers out of town but I can't help but to wonder what Lee's record would be if they played the same schedule as Gate City.

One can only wonder, but it would have to be better than Gate City's!

Any takers on this topic?

Graham 34 to 13

I don't know where those stats come from or even what game, but apparently not the BHC, but I still think Crusenberry was the better back. 

Never was in question who was the better back. How did this conversation even remotely relate to that? The conversation was on whether the other back could step in and carry the load. Then everyone wants to start comparing. Most things are a matter of opinion anyway.

Not many open holes at all, but the few times he could've gained some yards he didn't seem to hit right hole.

Did any of you actually see the stats from that game? Or are you just acting like you know what you're talking about?

Ill agree, the crusenberry kid is a good ball player, hes strong, quick and reads blocks well. 

Wynn is strong, he's not as quick, and against Union I seen he missed alot of open holes. 

 

Again, this is just my opinion

What's happened to the Crusenberry kid? I hope nothing serious, he's a Sr and hope to see him back to finish his HS career.

So there were a lot of open holes in the Union defense? How many times did he miss an open hole?

Rye cove 26  Springs 12

Isn't Crusenberry hurt? If so, AHS wins comfortably

You don't think the Wynn kid can step in and carry the load on offense?

At what positions? 

Mainly at QB and receivers, against their secondary. That front four is tenacious, and will be hard for anyone to run on. I'm just anxious to see how they do against a really good QB.

Mainly the qb and receivers, against unions secondary.

You can’t lobby for it being a close game  then use that example then. Battle LOST to Abingdon. If Abingdon hasn’t proven to be a good team in your eyes then what does that say about battle?

There again your comparing apples to oranges. Teams match up differently against each other. All I said was that battle will present matchup problems.

Because Abingdon beat Battle whereas Union rolled the Falcons?

Union doesn't blow out good teams? Beating Abingdon by 28, Ridgeview by two TDs, and didn't Ridgeview beat you 24-7?

So Battle will play Union closer than Ridgeview did on the road, despite losing handily to two teams Union handled? 

You can't compare apples to oranges, etc. Teams matchup differently. Abingdon hasn't proven that they are a good team. They definitely aren't the team they were last year.
