Hhsdevils93 39 Report Share Posted November 11, 2018 Game location is the factor. Bears by a score. Gmen struggles at the Park continue. Bears are being overlooked I think due to losses to solid teams. Should be a good one. Look for Union to ground and pound to limit Graham’s TOP. Good luck to both teams and may they both come out injury free. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#BBN 128 Report Share Posted November 11, 2018 For Union to win, Something drastically has to change with the offense. If Union gets down they do not have the high powered offense to get back in games quick! If the Bears can limit Allen and Lester and make Graham beat them another way it could be a good ball game!!!! I'm not good at predictions so I'll just leave that open for everyone else to do!!! Hhsdevils93 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mountain Football 1,532 Report Share Posted November 11, 2018 This will definitely be a good game. Graham will have to come ready to play and eliminate some of the mistakes they had today. Graham's defense is much improved. They seem to be clicking as a unit. I'm not the best at predictions either but I sure hope we win. We need all the fans we can get to get behind this team. Sometimes I feel like I'm at a PGA Tour event. On a side note. Mike Horton, coach for Graham, is one hell of a motivator. If those kids wouldn't run through a brick wall after hearing him then nothing will motivate them. He reminds me of Scott Cochran from Bama. Go Graham!

Deleted Account 5,203 Report Share Posted November 11, 2018 Graham has a mental block against Union, but Graham is flat out the better team right now. Interesting to see if the mental will overcome the physical. Hhsdevils93 and Gridiron60 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vol Hater 276 Report Share Posted November 11, 2018 Personally I hope for a Union win but with that said the offense has went in the wrong direction the last 4 games unless coach Turner is just not wanting to show his hand and by keeping his playcalling close to the vest this game could get ugly quick. Graham has revenge on its mind and Union is playing the underdog card. So I'm saying Union scores late then holds onto win 28 Graham 24.

I compare Graham to West with all that speed and spreading you out on offense. But we shall see next Saturday say around 3 that's when it should be about middle of the 2nd qtr.

Unionguy_2017 288 Report Share Posted November 11, 2018 For Union to have any sort of a chance at all they have to be the much, much, much more physical team. They can’t beat Graham to the corner. They can’t pass it on Graham whatsoever. They have to line it up, run at graham, and somehow, someway make it work. I love union football. I’ll be there all night Friday night for the campout. But I don’t see it ending well. Graham by 3 TDS. Warriors_XO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. Yes. And Union's inability to mix up play calling. The Bears have potential, but the mental block in the passing game is severely limiting their offense and putting a lot of pressure on a defense that has too many kids going both ways. Graham wins easily if the Bear's offense doesn't play any better than the last 3 weeks. And it would technically be a 4-peat, '12, '15, '17, ? 😉 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I have a "mental" block , blacking out last year's trouncing, lol. Graham is much improved this year, especially second half of season.

Unchained 587 Report Share Posted November 11, 2018 IMO the Union OL has to show up big. Ground and pound keep away and finish. I'm really impressed with how hard Guerrant is running right now. I'd work him like a government mule next week. Union will not be able to win a shootout with the G Men. The mules will have to outwork the horses no doubt.

The only way we beat you guys is to play keep away and score on long, time consuming drives. Otherwise, we may be on the receiving end of a trouncing.

Ryan4VT 4,555 Report Share Posted November 11, 2018 Union doesn’t have anyone fast enough to keep up with Graham. Jenkins is fast, but Graham has 5 Jenkins’ on that offense. Graham will have to shoot themselves in the foot repeatedly and Union play keep away and score on all possessions to win this one.

Rhschamps04 15 Report Share Posted November 11, 2018 Graham has the advantage in all phases of the game except one and that is the mental aspect of the contest. Graham had all the talent last year and was blown out because in the biggest game of the season they came undone now i know this is a different year so we will wait and see what happens if the G-men come in with there head on straight its a 2 TD win for Graham. If they show up and are the same Graham that tends to show up in these games ill go 2 TDs the other way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
