Isn't Brooks Bros where some of the Cotton's crowd went after Cotton's closed?

Not sure where you read Graham isn't as good as last year. I think they are better . Giles is a little better than last year. Graham beat em 35-3 without Graham's first team All State linebacker. Giles lost to Blacksburg I think 24-0. Tazewell is way better. Graham obliterated them. Union is a solid team, but I think Graham wins by 20. If this game were to come down the wire, it would be as big of shock to me in a long time for a Graham team that is perceived and expected to win, but then loses.

Abingdon going against a tough Pulaski team + Coach Mance with a extra week to prepare = a Richlands W

GRAHAM G-MEN 2018 STATE CHAMP'S!

Cam got his game playing time today. He had 1 record tackle. 

The connection at Mitchell wasn’t strong, and we had technical issues aplenty as a result.  We apologize for the technical issues and the disconnects; going to work on that to try and make sure that doesn’t happen again!

I guess that's why they've only put up 45 on the Dogs...

I was thinking the same thing.  

I guess you forgot who Graham played last week...

Exactly right!

Crazy!!! I joked GC would upset Richlands...who knew? But man, Richlands' kicker is gold!!!!  Congratulations to Gate City! Big win at Ernie Hicks! 

You probably feel that way because you are a Richlands fan, to me, nothing comes remotely close to Bluefield-Graham.  What other game has people coming from hundreds or even thousands of miles once a year to watch the game, regardless of how good (or bad) the teams are that particular season.  
Also, I'm not trying to be mean or ugly by any means, but this thread is about Bluefield vs. Graham, let's please stick to the topic.  You will have plenty of time to discuss Richlands vs. Union.

SPECTACULAR VIEW...Just WOW...

Somebody should rename this thread “Why Graham or Richlands will be better than the other” LOL

And you won the exact same number of state titles since 2004.  😎

Graham/Beaver game this year will have 6 or 7 D1 athletes playing.  Pretty impressive for such a small area.

Graham and Glenvars 2nd  teams drove down the field in their 2nd possession but both came up short.  
3rd possession for 1st teamers went with down markers.  Glenvar loses 10 yards in 3 plays and punts.  Lester scrambles for 20 on 3rd and long to pick up a first down.  Lester hits Ray for a 35 yard strike to the corner of the end zone.  XP try is good.
Graham 1st team scores 2 tds in 3 possessions, but even so, most plays looked out of synch.  If Lester had been allowed to run, he would have had several huge gainers.
Overall impression of Graham is that the defense is way ahead of where they were at this point last year. Offense is behind where they were at this point last season.  Lot of work to do.  The line held their own on both sides of the ball against an experienced Glenvar line and that is a good sign.  Not a lot of depth for Graham however and if Lester gets hurt, they are in trouble.
Glenvar is big and strong but not much speed.
