Yes please wait til the week of to post a topic about a game. Made me think that this game was this week. Also makes other posters think the same

[Hokiebird7]

Same person did same for richlands and graham

[Stelley]

It’s alright. He’s a new poster and as long as he’s excited for games he’s fine w me. Just doesn’t have a grasp for how the topics usually work yet

[Wolf1207]

Now it’s legal to talk about this game! Lol

[Union_Fan]

Much better looking game than Union/Battle.

If the weather forecast holds steady I'll be watching this one in person.

Gate City physically whips the Pack in the trenches, plays ball control and wins on the road to nail down the #2 seed 27-14

[Fairlawncat]

Toss up game. Flip a coin.

I’ve heard concerns about Gate City’s health. If healthy, I agree with this take. Otherwise, I see it much closer and could go either way.

Ridgeview needs to figure some things out offensively.  I like what they did last night with the quarterback change and different formations.  They have to be able to throw the ball and that just hasn't been happening.  I think they will be fine defensively.  The key to this ballgame, just like at Union, will be in the trenches.  Gate City is very good up front and will pose a challenge to Ridgeview.

Gate city 28

Pack 21

Sealed late in the contest

This game will have huge homefield implications for the playoffs.  The winner of this game will get a home game in the 2nd round, of course if both teams were to win in the 1st round.

I'm sure GC has a better line than RV, but it's not like RV is horrible on the line. It's manigable. They were able to move the ball on the ground against Union. 
For the game, I think it'll co me down to turnovers and penalties. I expect a really good game where GC may control the game for about 70% of the time. RV does have these flashes where they can go off for a quick few scores. If they can jump on GC like they did Union, I don't think they come all the way back.

Gate City can control the game in the trenches (both sides of the ball)( the passing game is good enough and getting better), but will they! That's why they play the game! I picked GC to be 8-2 at the start of the year and I am riding with that. I thing it will like the GC-DB game early in the year GC 28-RV 24.

[Union_Fan]

GC has the better line play, Ridgeview has more explosiveness and overall team speed. I don't think either is far enough ahead of the other to be the deciding factor.

If GC can control big plays, they win. If Ridgeview can get some TDs from PR, KR or other big plays, they win.

Two very equal teams, just with different strengths and weaknesses. Fourth quarter will decide the game. If Ridgeview is up by 14 or more going into the 4th, they'll hold on. If it's tied or within 7 points, GC wins.

Let's see what happens.

[bearforce1]

If gate city controls the big plays from rv they win by a score or two. 

[S10SQUAREBODY4LIFE]

Stop deel, win.  Don't stop deel, lose. If rv plays like they did vs ab it could get ugly. Should be a great game.  

[jarhead24219]

Quick game,power by both teams limiting the others touches .28-14 GC 

[SwvaOG]

RV by a score. 

[SXSW]

Looks like it going to a very rainy night Friday, could the weather slow either team down? 

[jeffro]

Should be a heck of a game. Going with home team 24-21

[BigWinners]

I think GC wins 22-21. I think they’re mostly healthy and can produce more reliable scoring drives. RV seems very boom or bust. A couple drives go nowhere, boom Deel goes 70, couple more nowhere drives, etc.  

 

RV has to get 25 more involved. He’s a hell of a player abd a matchup nightmare. Can’t just rely on Deel, teams can slow that down. I know the QB has had growing pains but I think he’s improving and finding 25 in space will only help him.

I'm interested to see what Ridgeview does at quarterback.  They switched things up a little bit last week and even ran the wildcat a few plays.

They will use both.  Last week was the beginning of the transition to the next QB. Some of it was out of necessity but I think they like the results and it gives them another dimension.
