sixcat 2,920 Report Share Posted November 10, 2013 Is Galax still running the same offense they were in 2011? Yes. The freshman QB has a grasp on the entire offense now also and has been playing very well. He didn't have a handle earlier in the season which probably contributed in some way to the slow start. redtiger 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was wondering, I really like their offense, obviously influenced by the Gibbs/Redskins offense. Really features 1 back and has a lot of passing opportunities. Very unique style for small school ball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deleted Account 5,203 Report Share Posted November 10, 2013 My thoughts: Haysi doesn't make it out of Round 2. Galax is rolling. In AA, it's Giles and everyone else. Much parity 2-16. Love the Graham-Richlands rematch, which I predicted. Surprised Grayson fell that far. Surprised Lee still made it. Not surprised Virgibia finished strong.

Jethro 113 Report Share Posted November 10, 2013 Anything on Gretna? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redtiger 1,740 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2013 I haven't seen them this year but their colors are Blue and Yellow, mascot Hawks, run a Spread offense (usually 3 wide w/ a TE or 4 wide), a lot of QB runs and screens. Athletes at every position. Traditionally that's what Gretna is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
87Tiger 62 Report Share Posted November 10, 2013 Just my thoughts as far as the 1st round goes: Haysi over Eastside, 41-13 Galax over George Wythe, 35-11 Chilhowie over Auburn, 27-21 Clintwood over JI Burton, 42-16 Honaker over Bath Co., 31-15 Covington over Northwood, 34-18 Fort Chiswell over Rural Retreat, 47-6 Radford over Holston, 30-17 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not a shot at BC, the Tigers are gonna be mad! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ba961 24 Report Share Posted November 10, 2013 Agree gretna has better match ups for the Bearcats but a passing team can and I think will beat Giles graham had over 200 yards on them and should have beat them but had turn overs at bad times in the game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, they did have success and it was a very entertaining game....but Giles scored on every possession (except for maybe 1) against Graham.....Graham couldn't even slow them down.... I believe Graham has made some defensive changes and hopefully have benefited on defense from that since. But at the time....Graham had no chance to stop them. But I do agree that a good passing team has a shot against Giles. They will have to have good speed on defense as well, because Giles had some deceptively fast running backs.

sixcat 2,920 Report Share Posted November 10, 2013 Anything on Gretna? Galax faced them in a controlled scrimmage in mid August. Gretna pulled away in the latter sessions but it was pretty even among the starters. Very quick team overall. Not much size though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
battleftbl 42 Report Share Posted November 10, 2013 Giles was highly praised last year also....but they weren't physical and didn't really stack up against Battle's athletes either. They may be better than last year...but I cant imagine that they're untouchable by any means. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biggamesjames 18 Report Share Posted November 10, 2013 yeah I think the 2nd and 3rd seeds in 1A west is prob better matchup wise than 1 seed because of who you will get in 2nd round. However, gotta play everybody anyway so might as well welcome whoever comes to haysi and see what happens. makes no difference to me anyway because i'm in win it all or nothing mode anyway. get the ring. i believe this haysi team, if playing well and taking care of the ball, is good enough to beat any 1A team in the state. redtiger 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redtiger 1,740 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2013 Agreed on all points. District has been won, there only one more prize to be had and its gonna be a fight every week to get it done. It starts with Eastside and their 10,000 passing yards this season. They gave Honaker a hard time when they played this season. I told several people on here privately that I thought this Haysi team was gonna be good and could be special but I did not expect them to play as well as they have been. and you're right battleftbl, Battle was stronger and more athletic than Giles last season. Imo 2A is wide open. Giles is not unbeatable and Union, while solid, has shown some weaknesses this season. Every 2A West game should be a good one, there will be several upsets imo.

87Tiger 62 Report Share Posted November 11, 2013 Too low. Too low. Too low. A little too low. Much too low. A little too low. About right. About right. A couple of the predicted scores may be low, but for the Honaker game, Bath County has a pretty good past in the post-season. I think it might be tight in the first half and then the Tigers wear them down and pull away in the second half. Hope I'm wrong, but a win is a win and that is needed to move on to round 2.
