Alexander 41 - 44 Warren OT

[96Champ]

You can take this next statement however you like, but it is a reflection on Warrens schedule. Warren is 18th out of 25 teams in Region 11. Can you say "strength of schedule"!

Right now its rebuilding a program no matter where the wins come from. Warren is not worried about the playoffs right now getting the program rebuilt the right way is their goal.

Athens went 9-1 in 2009 and stayed home.

They were rebuilding their program and look where it got them.


Warren is making amazing progress. I think they last had a winning record, ironically, in 2009 also going 7-3.

New coach is making a difference. Having a Taylor at quarterback helps too.

[loganlocos]

I know Warren has never been to the playoffs. But if you beat a team, you get points towards the playoffs. If you beat a team with a lot of wins, you get big points game.

You talked SOOOOO much trash about Warren.

Imagine if the Bulldogs had beaten a 4-5-6 win Warren team instead of losing to Waverly.

The Bulldogs might be sniffing playoffs right now.

With a realistic shot at going 7-3, I’ll point out that you’d have to go back to 2013 to find seven wins, TOTAL. In the previous 6 seasons, Warren went 8-52 and only 5 of those losses were by a TD or less. Almost 40 losses were by 20+ and the average loss was about 30 points. In one whole season, Warren scored 34 points. This year’s senior class has seen two 20-game losing streaks end in their careers (2-41 from the beginning to end of both).

Next year, we get to deal with Logan, Dover, and New Philadelphia. This year, kids are having fun and putting in time for football again. So take this however you want, literally no one cares about strength of schedule.

I agree!! You have to win ballgames to get kids out. These kids have to feel they can win or they have already lost. I also dont care about strength of schedule. we aren't saying Warren should be in the playoffs. All I know is that they are playing better now than they have at the start of the season. Guess what, they are having a great time and they feel they can win every game on their schedule.
So as far as schedule strength is concerned, the only one who cares about that is YOU!!
Give these boys credit, they at least deserve a little respect!!
Go Blue!!

Last .500 season was 2011. We were 4-6 in 2012.

So is the overall consensus Alexander got better but Warren got a lot better as well? And this game should be favored pretty far in warrens favor? Warrens new 5 man front is pretty stout, led by welch, warner, keith, murdock, and petty. They all fly to the ball and seem to be to much for opposing o lines.

Haven't seen alex play this year but from what I have heard seems to me that they are improved. Im expecting a good game.

[Warriors321]

Expecting a battle. Alexander from what ive heard has a solid defense, but their offense is fairly one dimensional, as is warrens offense sometimes. Comes down to who can stop each others strengths. Still rooting for the ole big bad blue.

[ShoeHorn]

Alexander has wins vs Bradford, Berne Union, South Point and River Valley. I think Warren wins by 21.

You talked SOOOOO much trash about Warren.

Imagine if the Bulldogs had beaten a 4-5-6 win Warren team instead of losing to Waverly.

The Bulldogs might be sniffing playoffs right now.

Can you imagine how mad Logan people will be when Warren makes the playoffs and Logan is still sitting at home week 11. Be a great day

I’ll be happy for Warren. A loyal SEOAL team.

Those kids deserve a trip to the playoffs some day. Plus, they’ve taken good care of a great Chieftain - Blaine Maddox.

Does anyone know if this game will be broacast??

Not sure, I’ll do drive by drive updates.

Fort Frye wants Warren back on the schedule

Only Fort Frye cares about that game

Alexander snaps ball over punter's head on first series. Safety, Warren.

Warren 2 Alexander 0
10:27 1st

[enigmaax]

Taylor hits Gandee for 35 on a big 3rd & 20-something after a holding penalty to put it on the Alex 27.

Warriors end up going for it on 4th down and dropping a pass. Alex ball on their own 22.

[theNixer]

Starting off well for Warren.
