To play devils advocate it doesn’t have to be a physical injury. The fan can claim mental anguish or PTSD. Not saying that he will, just a thought

Yes and pick up Princeton

They should trade Union. Union gets a new train horn and Tater, Richlands gets Turner and 47 assistants to be named later.

I think it comes down to the horse trading between coaches. It honestly would be better if they just let the Bristol Herald pick the team. I understand Meadows a little bit due to the injury. I will say however that the championship game was the best QB performance by anyone in 2D the last couple of years. I don’t get the Dolin snub at all. Even just looking at the regular season, I don’t think there are 4 better lineman in the region.

Don't know if many people know this, but Meadows broke his other(left) hand in the 2nd quarter of the game Saturday and played thru it. To play like he did with that hand.....kid is a warrior.

Looks like Graham got to practice at VT indoor facility last night. Great experience for these young men. 

Tony and his coaching staff will need to preach to the corners to not get caught up in tendencies. It's going to be a game of who limits mistakes. 

Watching Central Woodstock, they remind me a lot of Union when they had Pollier. This game will come down to how well Graham can stop the run and if Clements can get free when Graham is on Offense. There also seems to be plays to be made throwing the ball over the top on Central but this has been a struggle for Graham this year. This should be a heck of a game. 

Graham needs to watch the HB pass from #14. CW ran it earlier in the year and it wouldn’t surprise me if they try and sneak a score with it again.

All the non Graham fans to include Radford, Glenvar, and Appo fans. You are cordially invited to the "Thread of Irrelevance " to shit talk about what could be, should be, or any other excuses that  may be applicable. 
All Graham kids have  heard all year is" your not as good as last year. You don't have your power 5 players", "You cant beat Union , they have your number" ," Ridgeview waiting to kick your ass, been waiting and working all year", " Radford is the best team in 2A", "Appo is Appo, Coach Smith is a genius and you can't stop or slow down Pennix "  Thanks for the  motivation!
 

That was so long ago I don’t know if any one could  speak on it. I think something to consider though is that he enrolled at UVA at 16. He started by the end of his sophomore year at age 17. I was responding more to comment that Compton had the best resume. 

Hey Packman you've talked enough trash buddy. Welcome to the thread of irrelevance. You should feel right at home.
 
 

I am taking GMen 35-21

I lost the farm long ago. You'll have to get it from someone in Bluefield lol.

I would bet @Ryan4VT ant farm that Graham doesn’t lose by 3 scores.

I would be surprised if Graham doesn’t take a couple of shots deep. Ridgeview plays a lot of man coverage with no safety help. Bluefield got behind them a couple of times.  For what is worth Ridgeview shut down Union’s power run game. I think Graham’s main game plan has to be get the ball in Clements hands as much as possible but you may have to throw deep a few times to keep Ridgeview honest. Ridgeview plays the run well because they typically stack the box and trust their athletes to cover on the outside.  It will be a good matchup to see if Watkins and Edwards can get behind Ridgeview’s DBs the way Bluefield did.

I wouldn’t say they imploded. They couldn’t handle Graham’s line on both sides of the ball. That will decide this game as well. Graham is returning 4/5ths of their line. The question will be is Ridgeview improved enough to give O’Quinn enough time to get the pass off and can they stop Graham from gashing them on the ground. If they have it will be a game. If not it will be a different year but same result.

The pick six was tipped by the pass rush. Graham also pulled starters in the 4th or the score would have been worse. Ridgeview may very well win this weekend, however there is no universe were Ridgeview was winning last year.

Grahams starters have given up 71 pts total. That’s an average of 6.5 pts a game.
