Wait, I thought the G-Men were being cheated by the officials? Where was the flag on that TD run?

Lmao

like I said. I can congratulate them in the likely event that they win. 

Looks like Graham will win. 
 

But I am going to be a good sport and congratulate the winning team unlike a lot of crybabies on here. 

Cheering when the QB gets hurt. Smh

Sad song on a small violin.

That is a straight up bullshit call

Union didn’t get the first so you can stop crying now. 

Congrats Tigers. Bring it back to Region D. 
 

Congrats to the Eagles on a terrific season!

Officials miss calls. It happens. Is Graham getting cheated? NO. Do some officials literally cheat? They absolutely do. 

This. 
 

High school football doesn’t have replay or review. Much of the time it is judgment.

Good god quit bitching about the refs people....they are going to miss calls, they are human...but they aren't trying to cheat anyone

A lot of it is judgment. 
 

They’ve missed some on us. Missed some on Graham. 
 

What I find funny is how Graham people go whining about horns and then bring their own and blow it when Union is lined up to snap. But I am not complaining.

Yeah Union NEVER gets holding calls lolol

 

they get 3-4 a game every game. You can fuss about some penalties but not Union and holding. They get called for it a lot. 

I have seen some missed facemask calls on Graham.

It’s a shame that at this depth of playoffs you cant get quality officiating.   Balless refs let union coach call the first one.

I thought Graham people hated horns and such. 

Clements is a beast

Bad spot. Seemed like forward progress should have put it at the 14ish

Having a healthy Clements might just make a little difference. Maybe just a little bit lol

 

damn he’s been electric so far 

That he is. 
 

One thing Union may win this game on is time of possession. Chewing up a lot of clock.

No worries, I hear exactly what you’re saying.  Union is in trouble though.  I’ve seen this game show with Graham the last 2 years.  

Hard to beat them twice in one season 

Union 8-7

Union driving 

We moved out of Wise County in 2017 and lived in and around Roanoke until 2021 when we moved back into the area, but in the Tri-Cities vicinity in Tennessee. 

I visit Big Stone on occasion. Mostly to see friends and catch a few Union games.

I still haven’t been to most of the new restaurants. I have been to Curklins and I like it.
 

I like what the town of Big Stone has done in the last 6 years. They really stepped up when Walmart left. 
 

Would not mind grabbing a bite at Little Mexico. 

Heard there was some stuff going down at Gate City HS today. A threat of some sort.

Graham and Union in final!! Book it and it won’t even be close this weekend for either team! 

Theoretically there’s a 25% probability of it being Graham vs. Union in the region final. 

The following scenarios each have a theoretical probability of 25%:

Gate City at Union 

Graham vs Tazewell

Gate City vs. Tazewell  

As far as the most likely scenario based on different factors it will most likely be Union hosting Graham.

Tazewell deserves some respect, as does Gate City. Neither Union nor Graham can afford to overlook their opponents. Do that and it could be Gate City vs. Tazewell. 
 

I would personally like to see Union vs. Gate City. During the pre-consolidation years Powell Valley vs. Gate City were games for the ages from 01-10. In fact, there were only 3 seasons from 01-10 in which the teams did not meet in the playoffs. Those were 02, 06, and 10.

This has to be a Graham coach, and I’d bet money it was Tony Palmer, himself. I would hate to be your quarterback now seeing as how Graham still tries to recruit them. Instead of “if you can’t beat ‘em, join em”, it’s “They can’t beat us if they are with us”.

That’s cast, as you say. Graham only wants Tazewell to win so they don’t have to play Union again. 

You’re insane 

Graham 35, Gate City 7. 

UVA Wise is a joke.

Phoebus 104, Jamestown 0 already posted, but here's what happened.

56-0 Phoebus at end of 1st qtr and Phoebus had JV team in with 2 minutes left in the 1st quarter up 49-0 and the JV team ran basic plays from that point on. Jamestown was down 84 to nothing at halftime and offered to have it called at the half. The Jamestown coach refused and they played the 2nd half.

Credit to BOTH the Jamestown Head Coach for not quiting. I like his decision. Credit to Phoebus for doing everything they could to keep the score down. Had starters out with 2 minutes left in first qtr and the JV team was put in and they ran basic plays, runs off tackle, simple dives. Sometimes, these things happen.

Here's the Argument. Are the kids hurt more by the 104 pt loss in 20 years with damage to their self esteem, or.....are they better off in 20 years by raising there self esteem and resillence by not quiting? I argue...better off in the long run for not quiting.

Give Calhoun the ball!

I think people need to quit jumping to conclusions. 
 

I understand why people are upset. People assume that they canceled the parade for the game. 
 

It would be better if people waited for an explanation.
