Something about a state playoff game at a field that’s not even yours or even in the state? Considering the VHSL willingly allowed the 1989 state title game to be played at Mitchell Stadium, this would be the stupidest protest since yesterday’s Harvard/Yale game.

Nothing is a given and anything can happen, Central is rolling right now but I don't see them kicking a$$. If GMen come in overconfident and not focused it could be a barn burner though.

I sure hope the Graham team is as confident as their fans on here:) . If you went by the thoughts on this board Central shouldn't even show up. Thankfully the game isn't played on here.Folks have overlooked Central all year. They are as dangerous a team as you'll find.

I don't believe Tony Palmer & company will let those boys come in with the attitude some of the GMen fans have on here. Do I think Graham wins, yes! Do I think Central rolls over, heck no! I hope it's a competitive injury free game for both sides. Let's face it, most of us are blowhard bleacher coaches 😂😂😂😂. I'll leave the real preparation to Palmer & staff. Union proved to GMen what happens when you don't come in focused and overconfident. I don't see them making that mistake again. starcityfootballfan and Unchained 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One thing some may not know ... Graham and Bluefield alternate each year as the designated home team. Every other year one team (home team) occupies the home side of the stadium which is the press box side. This year Bluefield was the home team ... and Beaver fans occupied the home side. Next year, Graham fans will occupy the home side while Bluefield fans will sit on the visitor's side. Every other year is a home and visitor rotation. Kinda cool!

All won State Championships in their respective divisions. I believe it was the last year of existence for Jonesville. Graham defeated Blacksburg in the regular season.
