Gridiron60 2,554 Report Share Posted November 20, 2021 I believe this is the first time Graham & Ridgeview have ever played. I have to digest today’s game & last night’s Ridgeview win before commenting on this game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BandanaVTDavis4321 1,717 Report Share Posted November 20, 2021 Graham's pass defense will get tested, but assuming (if) Graham wins, you want that going into the Appo game. This can help round out Grahams defense in preparation for a team that can run it and throw it in Appo. Ridgeview has very good athletes that force you to cover them in open space. In prep for Appo, you benefit more by playing Ridgeview than you would from playing Central. Same applies to Ridgeview. Your getting a glimpse or lots of similarities with Graham as you will Appo.

Mountain Football 1,532 Report Share Posted November 20, 2021 If Tony Palmer hadn't proved how much he loves Graham and these kids before, he definitely did this week. The example he set this week is first rate. Good coach even better person. Real Sasquatch, GMan, frito gonzales and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Westisthebest 88 Report Share Posted November 20, 2021 Id say a high scoring game. My prediction is Graham goes up a couple scores then its back and forth. Graham 35-21 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glenvar will have to capitalize on their possessions with points and shorten the game by possessing the ball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwvaOG 600 Report Share Posted November 21, 2021 7 hours ago, Gridiron60 said: I believe this is the first time Graham & Ridgeview have ever played. I have to digest today’s game & last night’s Ridgeview win before commenting on this game. Synopsis: RV QB is very good on the ground and through the air. He is the most effective runner. All State talent at WR in #7….he doesn't need a step but can get it…tore up Bluefield for 200 yards. His biggest problem is offense forgets about him a lot. He has faced brackets most of year but RV has adjusted by putting #13 out wide and he killed Central and is a threat. #5 is a good WR as well and will make plays. They will sling it and absolutely throw deep often. Oline seems better at pass pro than run blocking. Defense is underrated in M7, IMHO. They aren’t necessarily big but are athletic and pursue well. They’ll put #7 on Bradshaw and shade a safety. Scrappy and probably more athletic than Union on both sides of ball but smaller. Very inconsistent team tho’….pure definition of hot and cold. Graham is a tough matchup for them but the will be fast and loose as the under-dog. BandanaVTDavis4321 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swva_havok_fan 1,261 Report Share Posted November 21, 2021 I am backing the Pack all the way. I just don't see them winning this one though. Win or lose, it's been a milestone season though. First ever Elite 8 appearance and first region title game appearance. I'll be in the stands next Saturday rooting them on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gridiron60 2,554 Report Share Posted November 21, 2021 Bluefield did not plan well or adjust on defense against Ridgeview and it nearly cost them the game. I guarantee Rex & Snake will have Graham’s defense well prepared for Ridgeview and will make adjustments as needed. Graham’s defense is clicking on all cylinders right now. If Ridgeview slings it up deep too many times, Bradshaw will have at least one pick 6. Ridgeview should take advantage of Graham’s biggest weakness, the kickoff team. They haven’t cost us a game but in a close one, they could. starcityfootballfan and Graham32 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Real Sasquatch 1,865 Report Share Posted November 21, 2021 Graham has been dominating the line of scrimmage on both sides of the ball lately. 7 tds on 7 drives with the starters in against Union is impressive. Shutting down Lomax on the other side of the ball is equally as impressive. Connor Roberts doesnt get as much recognition as he deserves because Meadows is out there, but he does a great job. He is consistently good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is consistently good Roberts does a great job on the field. He’s a definite asset. Graham is truly a team effort even though some obviously get more recognition than others, They all make it work when they’re on the field. They were like a well oiled machine yesterday. I hate the Sawyers’s boy got injured. He had come a long way this season as far as improving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S10SQUAREBODY4LIFE 239 Report Share Posted November 21, 2021 Ridgeview is good enough to take it, gonna be interesting. Their defense looks to adapt well, but they need not forget they are a passing team. Bassackwards for most but watch central game, it allowed them to run later. Hope to make trip to mitchell.
