Ironton vs South Range - D5 State Championship

[Sonny Weaver]

Delay of game on Kickoff

Tigers UNRAVELING

[Wildcatone]

Zero answers on defense.

490 yards of offense for SR after 3 quarters, I believe is what the announcers gave

[SciotoCfootball]

Starting to seem like a pattern where Ironton goes from a hard hitting and aggressive defense, to a more timid and arm tackling defense when they reach the state championship. Obviously you're facing a much better team than you did all year, but don't see how it completely changes the way you hit and level of intensity.

This announcer is TERRIBLE, "penalty by Ironton HC Tevon Carpenter" JEEZ

Don’t we have a full quarter left to play? Or am I missing something?

[mattash]

need a stop

[SciotoCfootball]

Starting to realize what people mean when they say NEO football is sort of on a different level than the rest of the state. Every team i've ever watched from that part of the state is downright impressive.

The SW area isn't too shabby either.....

How’s Ironton’s recruiting class looking next year?

[Sonny Weaver]

SR offensive play calling might be the best I’ve ever seen.

Yeah they're both top 2 honestly, hate to admit it being from SEO but I try not to be biased with things.

If Ironton is going to compete for state championships they need out of the OVC. I didn't think so before, but it's becoming pretty evident that they need to play tougher teams to prepare them for games like this.

South range has a senior class that's played together since grade school. Like 21 seniors the only team that's been in their way is Kirtland. 25 year coach knows how to coach

Probably so.
They’re non conf schedule is fine, just isn’t beneficial that it’s at the BEGINNING of the season

[PirateFan[69]]

Maybe a couple more local kids can head to Ironton next year.
Give them that extra push they need to win a State Championship

Obviously region 19 isn't as strong as others. They have managed to beat another regional champ 3 out of 4 years so they can compete outside the region. However it certainly is frustrating that they just can't get it done on the biggest stage.
