6 and 4. Disappointed unless Giles has truly turned the corner and that much improved. We were expected to be better. Lots of disappointment so far. Maybe we turn it around. Won't matter. Glenvar is a lock for C. At this point, Glenvar, Gretna, and probably Appomattox are better than us.

Gonna probably be Glenvar and Union in state semis. Will be a game of momentum. If game starts and Union is dominating LOS and getting pressure and gashing them for 7 yards, Bears win. If Union doesnt get pressure or is only getting 2 or 3 yards per pop, Glenvar will win. Lots of season left though. I think Union will be playing Armstrong in Salem.

Armstrong gonna be a big problem in 2a

I think if Giles went back and played Blacksburg again they would either win or keep it within a few points. Blacksburg is not that good after watching them play Floyd.

Well Bburgs star running back Jaxon Keys transferred to North Cross after playing Giles due to personal reasons. Their offense was centered around him so I think that’s why we seen the Bruins fall off in weeks 2 and 3

Bluefield beats Graham

Bluefield makes it to state

Princeton wins state 

 

Quick edit, not a prediction, but Fritz coming back and being the offensive coordinator for Bluefield is HUUUUUUGE

Not to shabby so far. I would like to   update, Bluefield wins state and Richlands wins the SWD

I do believe swd is up for grabs. Almost anyone could take it in my opinion. But still overall not that good this year

They have the athletes, so does TJ, I think both teams will be contenders,  the big difference for them will be the physicality of play.  This area plays  more physical typically.  I lived in the Richmond area and those teams were more finesse.  However, that don't mean they can't strap it up when needed.  The physicality of the game may catch them off guard.

King William was a physical team a few years back.  Goochland couldn't handle the physicality of Graham in 2018.  You could tell they were getting frustrated in that game.

You may want to update that Bridgeport wins State in 3A.  Princeton is good, but Bridgeport is on another level.   Not sure who Bluefield will have to contend with in 2A, now that Fairmont is 3A.  I'm sure the Independence vs Bluefield game will be a good one this Friday, that will be very telling for both teams.

Absolutely.  The SWD has a lot of parity this year.  Lebanon and V - High are contenders as well.

I agree. I watched the TJ/Armstrong game someone posted on YouTube.

First, I felt sorry for the kids as the stadium is absolute bare minimum. Field didn't look good, no lights, small bleachers and almost nobody sitting on them.

Looking at the lines. Not big, not physical and resembled a back yard pickup game more than an organized sport.

I'd be surprised if either team makes it to Salem.

Glenvar is a very physical team too.

For Princeton, its not happening against Bridgeport. No contest.
