Wheelersburg 21 - 20 Minford

[greygoose]

Wilmington gave up 57 points to the 17th rank team in a D3 region. Butler is 2-3

That's because Wilmington isn't that good and he hasn't figured out that of course they've got a big line it's a DIII school.

[Poo Bear]

lol..That's CalPreps and means nothing. Wilmington's front lines were just as good as Ironton's and Jackson. Ironton had better backs hands down, but Wilmington had a tall athletic QB similar to Ironton's, and much better. receivers. If Wilmington and Jackson meet up, it will be better than you think. They will out until they face the almighty Clinton-Massie Falcons in week 10.

Miami Trace--3-2 with wins against teams that are a combined 1-14
WCH--3-2 with wins against teams that are a combined 1-14

Just stop, it's just getting sad now.

Miami trace defense gave up the same amount of points to Mt. Orab as Jackson did. Jackson has Washington CH in 2-weeks, so that will be a good common opponent to judge them by.

Good luck tomorrow . If Wilmington is a stout as you say you should have no problems tomorrow

MT-3-2 against opponents with a combined 1-14. SO that tells me all I need to know. Stick to Burg vs Mindord 1 common opponent Greenup County

[LucasDavenport]

Wilmington better than Jackson or Ironton ???

Basketball — no doubt!!

[JeepsWin]

Going with Burg by 3 TDs in this one. I agree they’d be 5-0 with Minford schedule. Mathews will be the best player on the field , he’s an amazing player, and I think he scores multiple times tomorrow. Burg 35-14

If you want to compare scores, Miami trace defense gave up the same amount of points to Mt. Orab as Jackson did. Jackson has Washington CH in 2-weeks, so that will be a good common opponent to judge them by. Greenup had their chances to hang right with burg in the 1st-half but couldn't hold on to the ball in the redzone.

What game were you watching. It was 14-0 in the first two possessions. The interception by 10 greenup was on their own 45, and the fumble occurred outside of the thirty. So neither happened in the red zone.

[vladimir]

Respectfully disagree on Wilmington’s defense being better than Jackson . Coming in to the Burg game Jackson had allowed 106 yards on 100 carries with no rushing touchdowns . Burg scored 1 rushing touchdown on Jackson but had to fight and claw to squeeze Mathews in . Jackson defense is very unnderated especially against the run. So not buying that Wilmington is that level . Sorry

Jackson and Wilmington have some common opponents coming up, so you'll get a better idea of them then. Have any of you seen them play first hand?

1 common opponent for BURG and MINFORD..GC. Minford came back to win it 45-27 and burg won it easily 38-7....just saying only common opponent right

I don't think Minford had to come back, they were in command the whole game. I was at the Ashland game, so maybe very early on but I don't recall from the film Minford ever trailed GC.

Correct 14-0, and Greenup took the ball right down the field and scored making it 14-7. Was that GC's first possession? I know burg onside kicked after the opening score. Bottom line: Both teams won with ease (3-TDs or more), so I don't really give much weight to "A common opponent comparison."

LOL you don't give much weight to the common opponent, but you'll try and say Wilimington is just as good as ironton and Jackson even though they beat 2 teams that are 3-2 with a combined record of teams being 2-28, notice you haven't even addressed that. Because they beat this team by this much, who lost to this team by this much, who had a big guy on the line that was a cousin to a guy who ran a 4.4. COME ON MAN.

Going into the 4th it was Minford 31-27 that's a close game throughout.

[vladimir]

Goose Minford never trailed so they didn't as you said, "have to come back to win."

That's b/c I've personally witnessed all those teams play, and think they're similar. Have you personally watched all of them, or viewed film on them? I think not.

Vladimir has proven one thing :

He will get the last word!!


Truly though it’s nice to see the passion back in this contest.

Which team?? Greenup yeah watched them against Minford, also watched MT in a scrimmage and I watched WCH and Adena on film, but you wouldn't know any of that. Fact is you've just got your Minford goggles on and that's cool no big deal but when you start going around a loop to try and prove that's there's more than there truly is you lose credibility. Facts are everyone goes by common opponent, once playoffs hit that's all anyone will matchup and in this case we have a common opponent. I hope Minford gets over the burg hump, I truly do because if they don't this year there's no telling when they'll get another shot. However, I'm not going to try and explain how Wilmington a team that hasn't beaten anyone of any significance in years is just as good as Jackson or ironton because you're wanting to try and get your point across about how big that win against Wilmington for Minford was. If Minford is that loaded they need to improve that schedule, I'm sure Jackson and Ironton both have open dates sometime in the future they can work out. Good luck to ya buddy

[Jack Sparrow]

Good luck to both. I’ve watched both of these teams grow up playing each other in everything, and both groups are great young men.
I’m hoping for an injury free game on both sides.
Burg 35
Minford 21

Come on man....

The one I'm talking about is the pass that was completed to the Burg 14-yard line thrown from Burg's 25 at the beginning of the 2-quarter. Correct me if I'm wrong, but that's the Red Zone.

Oh I think Muletown will be rocking and rolling tomorrow night. It's nice to see the SOC so wide open this year, makes every game crucial as you could easily see a tie atop the division this year. Should rephrase that wide open going into league play at least.

[14U]

Goose:

Minford has already beat one orange-and-black team that starts with a W. D3 Wilmington, who's O/D-lines are bigger and more athletic than Ironton or Jackson. You must not have seen that game, b/c you would have got a good idea about them. Wilmington has beat Miami Trace and Washington Court House rather easily, so they're just as good as Ironton or Jackson.

Reports I'm hearing outta Minford are that, the kids had a great week of practice, are focused but relaxed, and excited to have this opportunity. They were expected to be 3-2 at this point, not 5-0, so they're playing with house money. Very few expected them to be undefeated at this point. This group handles pressure a little differently than most, they're just going to go play their game and fun doing it.

LOL, that's hilarious. Ok let's break this down a bit and hopefully you can choose not to be so bias and open your mind. Minford beat DIII Wilmington a team they were supposed to beat. Excuse me if I'm not blown away at all by the fact Wilmington has beaten Miami Trace and WCH rather easily, considering those 2 teams are 3-2 and the wins came against opponents with a combined 2-28 record, yes you read that correctly. So to say that Wilmington is just as good as Ironton or Jackson you are crazy. If that's the case then you are saying that Minford, who beat the powerful wilimington team you speak of, is better than Ironton and Jackson. I mean since Minford beat Wilmington and you're claiming Wilmington is just as good as Ironton and Jackson. Once again the 2 wins Wilmington has that you are beating the drum on is MT and WCH who have 3 wins against teams a combined 2-28.....

I heard Wilmington threw the ball 70% of the time!! If that’s true how can they be physical when they pass blocked?

Just think if Greenup could catch the ball during Minford game and they were winning at half. 2nd half caught a case of the drops!!

Fair enough, but I think Wilmington is a better team than you're willing to give them credit. Maybe so that I'm sticking up for my team, but that's what fans do.
