Pioneer 69 Report Share Posted August 22, 2022 What is your thoughts on this one? I think it will be close. I'm saying the Pioneers win by touchdown. Pioneers 28 Tigers 21 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BandanaVTDavis4321 1,719 Report Share Posted August 22, 2022 I haven't seen the Tigers or Lebanon, but the boys from Honaker put a smackdown on Holston and Holston has been good. Sounds to me like Honaker is more than just a Reg D contender, but might be the frontrunner in 1D. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be interesting to see where Holston goes in the next few years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Honaker is probably better than Lebanon-but anyone who watched that game saw that Holston helped us out a lot with fumbles and mistakes. Our first TD was a badly blown coverage and they fumbled/bad snapped on probably 8-10 occasions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tornado99 345 Report Share Posted August 23, 2022 If Lowe is healthy, I give Honaker the edge. If not, it’s a toss up. Honaker advantage in the ones, Lebanon in depth. 24-14 Honaker. BandanaVTDavis4321 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d look at 4 seasons football, but my memory was that they were solid, but couldn’t get over the GW/Chilhowie hump. I think both developed a great culture, but numbers limit potential.

Sorry to quote myself. My memory was not entirely wrong, but not time sensitive. Matlock had some successful groups before returning to normal Holston. Patterson had some rough years, but successful ones at the end. Hokie Bound 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bulldog05-CO2017 102 Report Share Posted August 23, 2022 As a bulldog fan who moved to Honaker I’m gonna go with my “home team”. But in reality i would pick Honaker either way. Lebanon just can never get anything going. I don’t know what their issue is rather it be coaching or what. But that program has went down hill.

Coach Matlock did an outstanding job. Things went dry for a few years after he left before coming up again. Good point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jags52 346 Report Share Posted August 23, 2022 The Air raid wins out in this one. 1A schools are not use to seeing the passing attack that Honaker is going to bring to this game. Tiller has put in a lot of work in the summer to get this thing humming and its only going to get better with time. I agree Honaker may be the 1D front runner and they will pass their way to victory in this one bulldog05-CO2017 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pioneer 69 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2022 Has anyone thought that maybe Holston isn't as good this season. They lost a lot off of last year's squad and are only picked 4th or 5th in the hogo by the Bristol herald. Lebanon was actually picked 3rd below Rural Retreat and PH. Lebanon also beat a good Twin Springs team who had most of their team back from a 10 win season last year. All I am saying is don't sleep on the Pioneers this year.

He's probably one of the top QB prospects in his class in the region. He also the WRs who can make you pay. Lebanon should be vastly improved. They also have a 54 man roster. I think the Pioneers are content flying under the radar and are hoping teams take them lightly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swvaballclub 3 Report Share Posted August 23, 2022 Haven't seen Honaker scrimmage but Lebanon looks very talented offensively. Their freshman QB (anyone know his name?) looks like a phenom and they have a couple of WRs with good quickness and hands. Also have two solid RBs. Defensively they looked like they needed some work but I imagine they'll put up some points this year on offense. Hard to make a prediction without having seen Honaker though.

From the Lebanon highlights I saw on hudl I would definitely say you are accurate about the offense. The defense also had some good highlights that includes a sack, an interception and a few nice pass breakups against Twin Springs. I definitely think the Pioneers are quietly flying under the radar and will surprise. I've heard Honaker is big and slow upfront. They do have the Lowe kid who is a good athlete if healthy. If he gets loose a lot, he will make teams pay. It will be interesting to see how both teams respond to the new coaches. Lebanon should have a smooth transition, their current coach has been an assistant on Lebanon's staff for years and Is loved by the players. If the Pioneers passing attack can open up the run and keep pressure on the Tigers defense, then they will have a great opportunity to win. Should be a great game.

Pioneer 69 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2022 18 minutes ago, Bhonaker17 said: In the article I read, Tiller did not seem very professional or caring about the program. Everyone thinks Honaker will go far this year, but will they? Last year at Ridgeview, he did nothing, and ive heard that from many of players. Hopefully he turns it around but we will see. Goodluck to tiller and the tigers. Honaker also seems to be looking past Lebanon in my opinion. I don't think I would take this Lebanon team lightly. I may be wrong, but they aren't last years Pioneers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honaker by 14+ Lebanon 19 Honaker 13 Final Lebanon could have win this game by a lot more. They had 3 drives inside the 5 they should have scored on. They didn't however but still managed to win. I felt like they out played Honaker from the 2nd quarter on. Honaker had 2 good drives. If Lebanon can clean up the redzone offense and finish drives, they will be in good shape. Their passing offense is only going to get better as the season goes. bulldog05-CO2017 and BandanaVTDavis4321 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Observer 78 Report Share Posted August 26, 2022 I only caught the 4th quarter of this one on NFHS, but the play calling by Honaker late in the game wasn't very good. Every pass doesn't have to be a deep ball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
