I don’t know the penalty yardage for the Lee High game but it seems GMen have cleaned up penalties quite a bit compared to earlier in the season.

I wrote about Graham and the penalties before the Pulaski game and stated on here I think it's likely too late for the crew in Bluefield on the penalty/mental focus part because once teams get this late in the season with the penalties, bad snaps regularly, lack of mental focus issues, because it becomes a habit by game 8ish and it's just rare that it would be fixed to sustain a team in the playoffs. I was.....wrong again. At least, I think I was wrong because Graham kind of started the much less penalty thing with the Pulaski game and doesn't seem to have reverted back. That's not a good sign for opponents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graham hasn't had much competition since Pulaski. Union and Graham are very similar with the penalties and tight games usually bring them out.

If Union and Graham are fortunate enough to meet next week, I still dread it regardless of the schedule. Will be a tough out for sure.

GGH32 8 Report Share Posted November 18, 2023 Okay so one would be third and one would be fourth? My point to the op was that it's not fair to knock PC for giving up 40+ a game when PC ( also played Princeton and Botetourt) is playing a lot tougher schedule than Graham or Union. I get it, everyone here loves a Union - Graham matchup. I do too! But to think either would be the class of 3A is ridiculous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it’s not like Union played Science Hill, Morristown West, Graham and always scrimmages Elizabethton. They only play nobodies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're the one getting worked up over a high school football team. The op (original post that I quoted) said that PC was giving up 40+ a game, that's fair, because they did. My point is, that week in and week out Graham and Union ( who are the class of the swva) don't play the schedule that PC does. You can say all you want about the bottom half of PC's district but those guys play a different level of football. That's why there are 6 classes you douche.
