Region 1D has zero contenders, 1 good team (Chilhowie), and the rest fall into the mediocre or doormat categories. Region 1C has 1 contender (Galax), and one team on the higher side of good (Narrows). I would also put GW, Covington, and PM into the “good” category.

I would love to see Chilhowie or Narrows bring home a title, but 1A may be worse than 2A regarding 1 team and separation. Riverheads is likely 35 points better than the next closest 1A team this year, at least by 28 points. They are more likely to win it (even more) compared to Appomattox. If a team like Chilhowie were to run into Riverheads, the clock-keeper needs to get ready in the early 3rd qtr. It would be that bad, but it's not just Chilhowie. Follow their scores, as it doesn't matter if it's one of the fast teams from the coast like Essex or Sussex in the semi's or a team back this way in the finals, it's not going to be close. 02GW12 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re probably right when it comes down to it but I believe the potential is there.

I’d be highly shocked if Riverheads loses. Yes, I know they’re 8-2, but those two losses are to darned good higher classification squads.

They’ll not come close to sniffing a state title, but they’re quality teams for their level and classification. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt it would've happened, but if the rumors of Dougie Peoples being out for the rest of the playoffs is true then Narrows has a chance to make it happen.

TTownTigers 82 Report Share Posted November 11, 2017 Got a big offensive line and if you can run the ball, you are in games. They seem to have that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sixcat 2,933 Report Share Posted November 11, 2017 If Dougie is out for the remainder of the postseason, the rest of 1A football is going to get very familiar with Keaton Beamon. That’s not going to be pleasant for anyone not named Riverheads! I said in the Grayson Ridgeview thread a few days ago, Grayson has improved as much as anyone I have seen over the course of a season. And they are still a young team! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sixcat 2,933 Report Share Posted November 11, 2017 Not entirely sure. Left in the first quarter and never returned. Could be precautionary but some stuff floating around social media suggest otherwise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a lot to be said for watching playoff football in Florida. It's 74 degrees and I'm wearing shorts and sandals. Our broadcast station for Blacksburg football is outdoors. I was in shorts last night. It has to be below 25 before I even think about pants. 14 hours ago, EH31 said: Johnson can't hang onto the ball. Put it on the ground 3 times This. If he is fumbling at that rate, I wouldn’t run him either. 14 hours ago, UVAObserver said: 43-yarder by a HS kicker to tie a game in the playoffs? He better have nerves of steel. That’s way too risky. Safer to throw an out to the sideline on 4th and try a closer kick. He’s hit from longer this season, and in good conditions, I could see him hit from 50. And he’s just a sophomore. 14 hours ago, BigO said: Exactly. Was he a good kicker that "should have" made it? Or was it a long shot for him? Yep. Should have made it. It looked like it was gonna be close to the right upright had it not been tipped at the line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
