futbolking 766 Report Share Posted October 4, 2007 any predictions on this one. Would like to hear from Graham fans especially. I'm a marion fan, but would have to say that Marion would be a huge under-dog. Marion is scrappy this year, however. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
get_the_duck 10 Report Share Posted October 4, 2007 I heard Wicks is out for the year for Richlands. That could be a big. Thanks for the correction Gman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMan 3,569 Report Share Posted October 4, 2007 [ QUOTE ] I heard Elswick is out for the year for Richlands. That could be a big. [/ QUOTE ] I think you may be getting Elswick confused with Wicks...Wicks tore his MCL and partial tear of his ACL...Elswick was just named the BDT Player of the Week...

futbolking 766 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2007 The rain has been coming down here for two days...ground is pretty saturated...doesn't look like it will let up any time soon. Maybe by this evening...? Will that play a factor in the outcome? Marion is a very determined team this year. Good, smart kids. Talent-wise they may not match up, but you can bet they'll give it 100%. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GmanFan 21 Report Share Posted October 6, 2007 My guess is Bluefield by 17. They have way more speed than Richlands. Lets face it,they aren't the same team of the past several years. Bluefield will win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghs84 10 Report Share Posted October 6, 2007 Marion is a very good football team.they showed it against Graham and Richlands.yes the blues have slipped,but still a good team.if the playoffs started next week,marion would play the blues.this could be a very interesting playoff year.some good football left to be played.

rhsfan88 22 Report Share Posted October 6, 2007 Just his MCL, very painful to play with. They weren't going to use him last night unless they absolutely had to. Came in at beginning of the second half and gave a huge boost to the team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
futbolking 766 Author Report Share Posted October 7, 2007 Marion played Richlands very well. Had several scoring chances. Had a touchdown called back in the 4th and a missed field goal, which could have made a different out-come. It was a good game to watch. Don't discount Richland's win, because it was only by two against Marion. Marion is a very solid team this year. Everybody dismissed them when they lost to Chilhowie in the first game, but I truly belive that if Chilhowie were in the Southwest District, they'd be competing for a district championship. Richlands is a decent team, but not nearly the caliber team they were last year...they may very well end up with a solid record and high playoff expectations and may even win Region IV...who knows (Region IV is the weakest I've seen it in 30 years...), but they are in for a RUDE awakening if they get beyond that point.

[/ QUOTE ] Marion is one-dimensional and Richlands was playing with the walking wounded. With everyone healthy Richlands wins this game by 2 touchdowns easily. Marion doesn't throw the ball effectively and it has cost them two loses...one to Graham and one to the Blues. As for Richlands being in for a RUDE awakening, that's why they play the game on the field, and not on a freakin' message board. Also, Richlands doesn't need you to tell them not to discount their win just because it was only by two, and in the same breath point out that the 4th quarter touchdown was called back...it wouldn't have been a touchdown if the guy from Marion hadn't tackled the defender, that's why they called the holding penalty...Marion also complained about being "cheated in the loss to Graham..my gosh, quit crying and take the loss like a man...and as for the missed field goal, that's also part of the game. You have to make 'em in the clutch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
futbolking 766 Author Report Share Posted October 7, 2007 Then go watch the game and quit reading the message board. It appeared to me that Marion scored with the "pass" against Richlands. You obviously have seen Marion play ONE time this year. You've probably been reading too many message boards. Hey, don't get mad at me for pointing out the obvious. Richlands isn't all it's cracked up to be this year...reality bitES. You can't use injuries as an excuse for every performance. The other guys have to step up and perform...it's a "team" sport.
