Gridiron60 2,555 Report Share Posted September 8, 2017 Any thoughts or predictions about tonight's game...hoping Graham's line looks better on both offense & defense than the Bluefield game. I'm hoping Graham by a touchdown or two. T minus about 30 minutes to kickoff! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gridiron60 2,555 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2017 Graham in OT by a touchdown. Several turnovers, wasn't much of a game until last quarter. Looked a little better than Bluefield game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EH31 2,520 Report Share Posted September 9, 2017 I think graham caught Giles by surprise early in the game by going under center and running the ball out of the I formation. Giles didn't have an answer for it, but for some reason graham went away from it. Graham had some injuries that hurt as well but Giles got back in the game by Graham fumbles and wearing down graham's defense. Biedelman(sp?) is a heck of a player. Very patient runner and he just kept moving the sticks and grahams defense was just gassed. Cam Allen was making some big runs and tackles on defense in the first half but it looked like he sprained his ankle. He stayed in on offense but didn't run anymore but didn't play defense. Jazz Reed's injury looked awful. Nobody touched him and he hit the ground after he made the cut and couldn't put any weight on it. I'm hoping for the best for him but it didn't look good. Workman also looked like he got hurt as well as Sesco but I'm not sure about the severity of those two. Also, it seemed like Giles threw the ball a lot tonight. Is that the normal amount they do or did they change some up? Gridiron60 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWVAgridiron 1,469 Report Share Posted September 9, 2017 Giles doesn't throw the ball as much as they did tonight. But when teams stack the box like Graham did then you gotta air it out a little to back them up. Gridiron60 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWVAgridiron 1,469 Report Share Posted September 9, 2017 As far as that touchdown goes in OT, from where I was standing it looked like a clean catch in bounds. Graham has insane talent and speed, they just need to correct the small things like holding on to the football. Gridiron60 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nrv_football 81 Report Share Posted September 9, 2017 Definitely seemed like Giles wore the defense in the 2nd half. Giles should finish 8-2 or 7-3 I still believe. Gridiron60 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gridiron60 2,555 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2017 Graham definitely had the advantage with speed and size but Giles had some good passing tonight. Hope Reed is okay. That would be a bad break to lose him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
