Ol Dawg

Have to leave the horn I guess Graham's AD called and asked Union's AD to leave it in big stone. Just got off the phone with our AD.

Union came to play!! Horns or no horns! I give credit where credit is due. 

Guess I should apologize for the things I yelled at them. Lol

Would love to maintain that momentum the second half. 
 
Man, graham is fast. Impressive. 

Win or lose these young Bears are showing they can go to to toe with the defending state champ. This bodes mighty well for us:)

This young man has had an amazing start!  No question.  But Ridgeview has yet to play anyone that is a traditional power.  I mean no offense to Central with that.  This years team may very well be the best they have ever had.  If Adkins can put those numbers up against Abingdon and Union, then hold the phone because he could really make alot of noise.  Looking forward to when we play them.  But for now, I'm ready to head to WV and see what Mr Lester and co do this year.

I don't doubt that one bit.  I've never been a fan of the former coaches.  I feel like this bunch may be somewhat of an upgrade.

I think @Michael_389 and @Pioneer pride are neck and neck on who will win the "Biggest Homer" award on the forum this year.

You don't have to bro I'm no trying to sell it. Don't be surprised at the end of the season. You don't know these kids like I do. What there capable of.

You have to remember this rule in regards to kickoffs and punts. The kickoff or punt does not change to a possession until possession is gained. Touching the ball is NOT possession. So if the ball is touched anywhere outside of the end zone and then goes into the end zone on a kick it is an automatic touchback. The incorrect rule interpretation cost Bluefield a safety vs Graham in the 2012 game when Bluefield's punt returner touched a punt going over his head. He scrambled after it and inadvertently kicked it and the ball went out of the end zone. This should have been ruled a touchback but Graham was given a safety, Bluefield lost by 2 points.

I think this one will be a dog fight

This is definitely an eyebrow raiser. 

NFHS Rule 8-5-3.  Been around forever.

That was the interpretation I got from a post a week or so ago. I could have easily misunderstood the posters comment. My post was going off how I thought it read. I’ve not watched them live or in film, so I’m not pretending to know haha. I hope it’s a good game and everyone is safe. No injuries would be a blessing. 

It's either a down cycle of talent or Chris Akers.

Blevins kid did well with only a couple practices with the GMen nder his belt. He doesn't have Lester's speed but I believe he can match him at least in passing. I don't think the offense has shown us what their true potential is either. Defense was a little off at least in first half but getting Kastner back will help. I don't think it will be a cakewalk for Union or Graham. It could come down to the wire. Penalties could shift the momentum of the game. Graham.has had someTDs called back this year, two last night for holding. If Graham plays smart disciplined football, they win IMO. If not, Union may pull out the win. 

2003 PV-Sullivan Notth and 2003 TS-Unaka both had the same Tennessee crew with both Virginia teams ending up around 250 penalty yards. That was in back to back weeks.

Lord Botetourt 20 Bluefield 14
FINAL

Players gonna get tickets by police for being out past curfew 

Their safeties were wearing stripped shirts😂
 
i agree with with your comment on the serious side. 

Maybe he's referring to the pronunciation some use, Appa-lay-sha.

I'd just as soon play Rye Cove. We get no benefit by playing this bunch. Save the aggravation by dealing with the refs in KY and play in VA
