Hokiebird7 1,416 Report Share Posted October 26, 2015 If Radford puts Finley in the shotgun and runs a helter/skelter streetball offense like they did against Giles they have a shot to pull one out If Radford lines Grant up in the I-formation and tries to run him into the teeth of the Glenvar defense they have NO shot Grant is a great player but running right at Glenvar plays right into their hands....why Giles has trouble moving the ball on them the last 2 meetings...everything bunched up from end-to-end is the strength of the Glenvar defense If I had to pick right now i would say Glenvar wins 20-13 but what do I know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueRazor 1,147 Report Share Posted October 26, 2015 I would love to see Radford win this one but I doubt it will happen. Radford will treat this as a championship game I would suspect. So you never know.... Bigrhsfan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RCITYHOO 110 Report Share Posted October 26, 2015 We need Grant back to 100%. He played Friday at about 60%. Really think we would have been better off with out him. Have to agree with chokiebird Finley running & passing as he did at Giles we have chance. But Glenvar as everyone knows is so good across the front line.

SWVAgridiron 1,469 Report Share Posted October 26, 2015 Radford definitely has a shot, but not if they put Finley under center and try running Grant. Glenvar's D line will shut the run game down. If they put Finley in shotgun and let him use his athletism then they might pull an upset. They will need to play all 4 quarters though, because Glenvar doesnt take a quarter off. I predict Glenvar 28. Radford 24 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akshun 25 Report Share Posted October 26, 2015 Sealing the edges will be essential for Glenvar. Finley is definitely a game changer. Doesn't bode well for Radford that Grant is not 100%. At the this time of year no team is 100%. Can Radford stop Stigall, Manns, Clifford, and Stanley? You have to double team Stigall he is too good to leave 1on1 coverage on him, same as Stanley, which leaves open lanes for the run game for Manns, who could have a huge game. Glenvar has a massive O-line and D-line. I would say 35-14 Glenvar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You WON'T be better off without Grant...if you think so you are insane....kid is a great HS player and you will need him on defense for sure and on offense as well....if he don't play you have no shot to beat Glenvar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sixcat 2,937 Report Share Posted October 26, 2015 I may be completely off base with this and I will be the first to come back and admit it should I be proven wrong. I feel like Radford is fading down the stretch. Injuries can wear a team down quickly. Glenvar, however, has probably played its best football of the season the past few weeks. That combination doesn't bode well for Radford. Glenvar 35 Radford 14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That combination doesn't bode well for Radford. Glenvar 35 Radford 14 I was reading in a different post that Radford had 4 lineman out against Auburn, and Grant was near 50%. Could've been the reason for the close game.I hate to hear about injuries especially for Grant. High ankle sprain are hard to shake off. I know these games are important, but I would rest the kid until playoffs. Radford is already in the playoffs, why risk more injury to your ankle. What's more important beating Glenvar or winning playoff games? That's up to Radford. I remember 2 years ago when Calvin Johnson for the Detroit Lions had a high ankle sprain, and he missed nearly the entire season. Although, I don't know the severity of the sprain. We all know the NFL has the best doctors and they couldn't get Megatron back on the field. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RCITYHOO 110 Report Share Posted October 26, 2015 agree with all except the one that i'm crazy (well not this time). i said we would have been better off without Grant for this game. He was no where close to game ready so what i meant was #28 is better than Heth at 50%. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Akshun 25 Report Share Posted October 29, 2015 What is the latest on this game? Who's playing and who is out for both teams. Could injuries determine the winner of this game? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sixcat 2,937 Report Share Posted October 29, 2015 Given the rain we have had for the past week, I hope Radford rests Grant. They have nothing but seeding to gain from taking a chance playing him and a lot more than that to lose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SWVAgridiron 1,469 Report Share Posted October 29, 2015 I think that Grant will play some but not a full game. They may rotate him in every other series. It does take a toll on a player when they have to sit out a couple of games then are expected to come back and play a full game. I would play him about 60% tomorrow, and maybe 40% next week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueRazor 1,147 Report Share Posted October 29, 2015 If he is dealing with a high ankle sprain......I would DEFINATELY sit him out until the second round of the playoffs unless they absolutely had to try him to win a game. High ankle sprain is not easy to overcome in just a week or two. I wish him the best and hope he has the right people working with him.
