He drops back quite a bit in that shotgun formation. I hope he doesn't have time to throw, he is accurate as heck. Graham's DB's need to play well, if he does have time. Also, check out that punt he had at the end of the Floyd Co. Hilights....good grief.
Here's some Hudl Hilights of Glenvar's QB. and his brother a WR and DB.

Travel time can be an issue, I suppose. This time of year, the regional finals, state semis, etc... can be a bit of a drive. That's all I can think of, possibly.

I have to agree with this. Glenvar has a high scoring offense, but hasn't played a defense like Graham's. Graham has the speed and athletes in the secondary to counter Glenvar's passing game. Glenvar's QB is good, but he will be under tremendous pressure all day long. Graham by 2 scores.
At this point in the season, anybody can win the title. Glenvar looks dangerous and can put up points in a hurry. Strasburg and Poquoson look very strong. Graham is right there with all 3. I don't think Glenvar has played a team as Physical as Graham, but one thing is for sure, the other 3 teams left have put up some big numbers.
Play calling was very conservative. When they did get in a bind and tried to throw it, the plays took too long to develop against Graham's defense. The play calling was predictable, but Union still was able to move the ball, somewhat, but once Graham got up by 2 scores, it was obvious that Union wouldn't be able to catch Graham. The folks around me in the stands were confident that Turner would run the clock out on himself. Why in the world did he call those timeouts at the end of the game? Graham would have been happy to run out the clock. They went for it on 4th and 2 and ended up scoring again. Not that it mattered ...
Strasburg and Poquoson can run it or throw it. They are both well balanced and have good team speed. Both will be formidable. That should be a heck of a game between them
Glenvar is a passing team. They are throw first and run 2nd. They put up big passing #'s and score a lot of points. They haven't seen a physical defense like Graham's all season or one with the athletes that Graham has in the secondary. Going to be Interesting.
