Fairlawncat 252 Report Share Posted September 11, 2021 Final Scores Heritage 56, Appomattox 13 Fluvanna 24, Buckingham 18. For all the 2A schools playing so far this week and their final scores, this one is up there as biggest surprise. Appo getting hammered by Heritage is expected considering Appo is playing with almost half of a JV team on the field due to injuries, Covid, etc. Something like 9-10 starters down or something of that nature. Glenvar 28, Cave Spring 14, Glenvar quietly setting at 3 and 0 on the season with wins over Galax, Martinsville, and Cave Spring Glenvar and Radford actually have a reasonably good chance to outpoint Appo in Region C. With it's injuries and difficult schedule, it's possible Appo could actually enter the playoffs as the 3 seed. If they are healthy, it wouldn't matter if they were the 8th seed, but where it matters is.............Graham, Union, Ridgeview, Region D. The higher power points team would host in the semi's and you may see Appo hosting game one of the playoffs, then traveling in games 2, 3, and 4.

Just couldn’t do anything in the red zone. RV made a long pass and run and that was the difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When teams do that, it makes me cheer against them. I hope Graham or Central humbles them a bit, sounds like someone needs too. Teams will remember that when Virginia High has another bad team.

I’ve been in the booth for 21 games now, and this was by far the most incompetent crew I’ve ever seen. It wasn’t even biased or one-sided. It was just flat out incompetent. We had a 5th down; an “offsetting penalty” call that gave the ball back to Mount View at the original line of scrimmage after TWO possession changes on the same play (and both penalties happened after the 2nd possession change); a play where the refs allowed 1:39 to run off a moving clock between a 3rd down and 4th down. It was just bad, not in an offensive way, just in a “can anyone do this better?!” way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn’t surprise me that you would say something like that. Pioneer, worry about Lebanon. The final score was 66-40. Your talking about a team that took 2 years of beatings, and now they are being coached, and much improved. I am sure VA High won’t forget Lebanon from last year either. They will see what they have next week against Central. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan4VT 4,554 Report Share Posted September 11, 2021 1 hour ago, CPF said: Kinda like Mance up 38-0 and onside kicking 10 years ago. I mean, do what you gotta do. But what would have happened if 8 or 15 breaks an ankle or tears an ACL while you’re intentionally leaving starters in on a running clock game? For as great of a coach as Palmer is — he does really dumb things sometimes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan4VT 4,554 Report Share Posted September 11, 2021 1 hour ago, Gridiron60 said: Tony isn’t known for running up the score which he didn’t tonight. He literally started subbing some in 2nd Q. I’ve never seen him run the score up on an opponent. 10 of the 11 offensive starters for Graham that played snap 1 played the last snap. 33 was the only sub on the field on Graham’s final possession. Like I said in the previous post — do what you gotta do. It’s Richlands job to stop Graham (they didn’t do a good job of that). But when a starter ends his season or career with 4 min left in a game you’re up 35… jarhead24219 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan4VT 4,554 Report Share Posted September 11, 2021 And while we’re at it — down 35-0 in the 4th — there’s 0 reason to have the Richlands starters in that game. I get you’re using it as a glorified practice at that point — but there’s 0 need in risking Sage or Dylan or Drew or Gavin to injury there. Put Keen in at QB and let him have a shot with the backups.

Your right once game is out of reach get em out winning or losing. Union started subbing early in the 3rd tonight and Burton tried to but didn't have many too sub. Not worth losing a starter in a blowout. Only problem for Union though starters are only playing 2 quarters and that's a problem playing Graham Ryan4VT 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your the Graham coaching staff, you have the juggernaut Bears coming to town and you are trying to nail down details, as in not getting self inflicted off sides, false starts, motion penalties. I can understand having starters in the 4th of 35-0 IF I'm not throwing/trying to score, but trying to build cohesiveness in prep for Union. For example, Graham has used 2 QB's and was down to 1 with Richlands. Those snap counts, play calling, signals, all matter as I'm sure the Graham coaching staff at that point is thinking Union Bears What do we need to work on without trying to score? Also, you are thinking, the game is minus one practice as it's a short week if I'm not mistaken (Thursday game) so you are really trying to button down the hatch. I watched the first half of that game on my phone. That game could have been 50 to nothing if the Graham coaches wanted to have poured it on. Graham purposely left about 2 touchdowns on the field in my opinion. Gridiron60 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can say all that stuff, but IMO, it is stupid to leave 10 of your 11 starters in while you’re up 35-0 with 8 min left in a game. One wrong play and someone snaps an ACL and you’ve flushed your chance at a state title down the drain. It’s just not smart. And that goes both ways.
