Week 9: (1-7) Minford @ (4-4) Wheelersburg

[The Nature Boy]

And the Burg has made it up to #14 in the region. I doubt a win over Minford will give much points but a Week 10 win would give them an SOC Championship and some playoff points. Even though West is D6 now. Of course, let's not look ahead. Anything can happen .

I think they will end up there or 13. Not many points left with SOC playing each other.

Doesn’t matter, winning the SOC and beating the minford, oakhills, NW’s is something you better do at the burg. Burg fans don’t care about these games. Burg fans want wins over the irontons, Jackson’s, prep types and burg has proven they can’t do that without tanner Holden

This statement just blows my mind, I get if you’re trying to gas light. Burg loses the SOC title and beats Prep of beats a Ironton and doesn’t win SOC ppl will be upset. Banners get hung for championships a pat on the back is what you get for a Ironton or prep win, unless it’s in the playoffs.

Let’s take a poll
Coming into the yr would burg fans take 6-4 with losses to the teams they always lose to and a soc championship or 9-1 with obviously wins over ironton, Jackson and prep with a loss in week10 to west and no championship

Go ahead ask any coach what they want. Thanks for polling

Take another poll for Ironton would they have rather lost to burg and but won the state championship game or you know just happy with how it turned out. Beat burg but got the breaks beat off of them multiple times in the title game. Guess if you’re the spokesman and saying what you’re saying it’s beat burg, LOL.

I see 12-16 being very close, some other teams have potential big point games just as Burg does with West

[VetteMan]

The Pirates will pretty much dictate what the final score will be in this matchup against the Falcons.

[FalconFever02]

Sad what this game has become after Daniels stepped away, with the 2 exceptions under Ruby. I hope Michael can keep this youth intact.

There is a segment of loser Ironton fans who act like Wheelersburg is this terrible program because Ironton has beaten them recently. Which is stupid, it makes your team look worse! They still prove year in year out they are a top 2 or 3 program in the SE part of the state, and I’d imagine the 2-5 seeds are all praying it’s Coal Grove or Zane Trace opposite them in R1, not Wheelersburg.

Of course, there are also some loser Wheelersburg fans who act like a state runner up season is a failure. So every fan base has their dummies.

No one is saying burgs a terrible program. Just mediocre by the standards set over the last 50 yrs. They’ve just proven post holden that they can’t beat good football teams. 1-15 post holden against ironton, Jackson and prep. This seems to have just become acceptable among burg fans, just seems to have become the norm. Beat up on the NW’s, oakhills, minfords, valleys and lose to all the good teams on the schedule. Beat the heaths, Portsmouth’s, Afrocentrics of the world in the playoffs then go into the prep game and not show up and play like they already know it’s a loss. Welcome to burg football 2024

I suppose we could storm the coach's houses and work em over real good til they meet our demands...

Fantastic 50 has Burg 13 if we win out...predicted first round going to Prep, but he has Prep losing to LaSalle and being the 4 seed. Not sure if Prep winning out would put them at 1 or 2

Meigs/Wellston this week may decide the 13/14 between Coal Grove and Wheelersburg.

Ironton should stay the 1 regardless of Prep/La Salle. Would be close.

[art_vandelay]

If Burg gets the #14 seed, they’ll be in Regional Finals. #13 seed, one and done.*

[wobycat]

Have to play em anyway. Why wait.

Prep would jump Ironton beating la salle

Pasteur has 9W Ironton at 28.26 and 8W Prep at 27.90. Would be close.

Yeah that’s the average. I’m assuming la salle would win out and gallia would not. It may also depend on pick central winning.

[TigerBob]

La Salle plays Elder in W10.

La Salle plays Elder in W10.

Good point

[Larry Fine]

Wow Burg looking at a 6-5 season.
