Gmen2021 75 Report Share Posted September 12, 2021 14 hours ago, Mountain Football said: Graham has to prove they can stay in this game mentally. Are they going to lay down like they did on the last play in April or are they going to play 4 quarters of football with determination and focus? Graham won’t give up 200 yards rushing Thursday. Spring was last season! Different cast with Bradshaw playing. His effect on the game transcends his touches. 52 minutes ago, goose111874 said: If they don't get 200 rushing it won't be close Correct .

I’m not sure where any of us Graham folks have said Graham wins this one with or without Bradshaw. For Graham to have a chance, they have to be mentally prepared and play hard all 4 quarters. If not, we may get our butts handed to us again. As far as Bradshaw , he is fun to watch and would be worth the drive.

I am not a Graham or Union fan, but I will tell you it would have made a huge difference last year, and even bigger difference in this year's game! Graham has been waiting on this one, the the score will show! 35-21 - GMEN!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rumor is Graham has lost access to play in Bluefield Crazy to think both schools might be arguing Not to play at home as the advantage rests on traveling. LOL. If it were true for Graham and Mitchell and no access or whatever, they have two other Tazewell County Schools. Richlands is open on a Thursday night or Saturday as it hosts Abingdon. Tazewell High, located closest to Graham is on the road at Battle, so Thursday, Friday, Saturday is open for Tazewell. Tazewell would be the location of the game IF in fact, Graham truly did lose access to Mitchell. Tazewell makes Unions trip 20-25 minutes shorter. Richlands would make it 40-45 minutes shorter.

I wish really bad I had taken a vacation day at work the year he put it on us at Union. Talent like that only comes around every so often. If you like small town football you better go see it while it's there. I learned my lesson. He is representing Union and our end of the state very well.

BandanaVTDavis4321 1,717 Report Share Posted September 12, 2021 The RB for Union, Lomax is probably one of the more underrated RB's in the state of Virginia. If there were such a list, he would likely be on that list. He's not the best in Virginia by any means, but he is Div 1, and he crushes the mentality of defenses who often have him hit after 2 yards, and he gets 3 more giving Union a 2nd and 5 instead of a 2nd and 8 or 2nd and 9. It happened with Graham multiple times in the game. So many times, 3rd and short for Union and they get the first by a yard or two. That's what Lomax does to defenses. It demoralizes them. Graham better button up the hatches and be disciplined. If the undisciplined Graham shows up which is the one that loves to make a big hit in the secondary and not rap up, it will be a long day. The big knock out hit where the opponents goes down hard even when the defender doesn't rap up will work against a Marion. It won't work against Union. You'll see the Running Back keep on running, if the GMen don't wrap up. So far when I've seen Graham against Abingdon, Tazewell, and Richlands, the G-Men have looked good in tackling.

goose111874 967 Report Share Posted September 12, 2021 Let's just hope it's a great game cause I'm sick of these blowouts. Have no clue how good Union is because of the schedule.

Graham must wrap up and make good tackles. Obviously Graham has more weapons then last season with Bradshaw in the lineup They have several good receivers and a good running game The defense looks improved as well. Union seems to be much better at this point in the season as well It should be a great game. Hope both teams are at full strength and I believe this to be a preview of the regional championship game. Winner gets home field, so this is a super important game for this early in the season.
