Wvumav 20 Report Share Posted October 21, 2023 1 hour ago, bhs7695 said: That's the most embarrassing loss I've seen Bluefield have in football. Zero excuse not to score one point on Oak Hill. By the end of the 3rd quarter it looked like Bluefield was just ready to go home. Field conditions didn’t help them as they like to run to the outside. They had to try and play power football which worked into Oak Hills favor cause they had some big old boys up front that Bluefield just couldn’t move.

There's still opportunity to improve our playoff position. One could logically argue that the backfield Giles deployed against Tazewell could have very well led to a win against Galax. Typically, better offensive stats leads to more points the last I checked..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess is a lot of unemployed coaches already tried that formula. That's one view. The other view is, a whole lot of Hall of Famers were smart enough to get their young guys on the field early on in obvious big wins or big losses and it helped in 2 years. Hyperbole Fallacy= "just fold " At zero moments in this forum did I read the words, we should "just fold." Common sense says, it doesn't matter what our playoff position is, we are 1 and done, maybe with a great game, we somehow win 1 then done. Get your young guys in early and get experience is the common sense approach in my opinion. S10SQUAREBODY4LIFE and Fairlawncat 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get your young guys in early and get experience is the common sense approach in my opinion. not saying don't give the young guys a shot. if they've got obvious superior talent, great. In this case, the sophomore TB, started a couple games, but no real great results. So this week, they start a senior a TB, that hadn't practiced at TB all year, with better results. And to beat that, it was a short week thursday game, so he maybe had 2 days practice to face maybe the 2nd best competition we've faced all year. So, to the guy, (not you), that's been saying this team has no senior leadership, I think he should pay a little respect to a senior that did step up and show some leadership. but instead he just wants to poo-poo on the effort. Can't have that both ways my friends. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are those both JV guys for Giles? Heck, he wouldn't know. Doesn't even go to many games just runs his mouth on the Internet. Estes is super fast and is a senior, Wilcoxon is a sophomore and will probably be Giles starting TB next year. Estes should be utilized more now if they keep the backfield alignment the same as the previous WB moved to TB and Estes plays wingback also. Or according to some, we should just stick a bunch of under classman in there to gain experience which would eliminate Estes as well. There's 2 seniors in Giles backfield that are currently being recruited by several colleges but we should apparently bench them for the future of the program....🤦 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWVAgridiron 1,469 Report Share Posted October 22, 2023 Parsell at TB, Saunders at FB, Estes at WB, and Baylor at BB. That’s how we have to finish the season. The few games that Wilcoxson started at TB you could see that he’s just not ready yet. We wouldn’t have beat Grayson but definitely would’ve beaten Galax with the backfield that I mentioned above. I understand getting some experience since he is the future but it’s not fair to the seniors that have more experience in that position at the varsity level. That experience showed against Tazewell. It’s been a tough a season for our Spartans and this team was capable of accomplishing much more. We just need to finish out strong, hopefully win 1 of our last 2 games, secure the 7th seed, and meet up with Narz in the first round. To hell with going back to Grayson lol 1Wingit23 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
