I think this score proves that Meigs underachieved this year BIG TIME! This team should have been so much better than 6-4.
Congratulations on the win over Belpre. Time to lace up the sneakers and get on the hardwood.

Congratulations to Belpre on your TVC Ohio Division Championship...you earned it, even if you lost your final game, you did what no other team in the league has been able to do for 4 years, beat Nelsonville-York!

Meigs 42
Belpre 12

Final. Meigs was ready to play Belpre wasn't tonight. Got to give props to English,he was unstoppable.Might have been a little different if Radabaugh played but I don't know if anyone could have stopped him tonight.Congrats to Meigs

Congrats to the Meigs PLAYERS... you came to play and beat Belpre. English is a great running back and QB Story threw it great tonight.

But I have no respect for the Meigs coaches for leaving most your starters in the whole game... even when up by 30 with just few minutes to go. Belpre threw in the towel and had what was basically a freshmen team in there on both sides. Lot of class there Meigs coaches.

Belpre you had a great season... no one thought you could do it.. Co-TVC Champs !!!

I wasn't at the game so I don't know all of the circumstances behind the Meigs coaches leaving the starters in...and typically I'd be against this. However, if the starters that were left in were seniors then I can totally understand it. It was the last game of their careers, might as well let them play the whole game because 98% of them will never play football again.

It was reported that Meigs had 42 points on the board in the third quarter. Is this true? The half-time score was 28-0. I have never seen a Mike Chancey coached team ever run up the score. I have seen them take a knee early in the 4th quarter before and take a knee on the 1 yard line several times. Let me know when Meigs scored their last points.

Congrats to Meigs as they played up to their potential tonight. Just too many weapons.

English broke a long run for a TD early in the 4th quarter and put them up 42-6 the starters were still in with 2:20 seconds left and they took a Knee at that time on about the 25 yard line or so

How many yards did "Corndog" have? I was at the game, and wondered off and on, if Meigs was really that good, how did they loose 4 games?! Not criticizing mind you, but wondering how that happened. :shock:

Perhaps tonight was a special game as the pressure was off.

Eaglepapaw,

Just how did Meigs score all those points? Belpre shut out VC and hold NY to 6. Both teams have potent offenses. How does a team playing for an outright title and with the defensive numbers they have put up all year give up 42 points?

Congrats to NY and Belpre for their co-championships.

Meigs did leave in the seniors up to the whistle. that is the way you should do it. THey definately did not try to run up the score. Englishes speed was what ran up the score on that last score. 3rd and 14 and Meigs ran instead of passed. English just broke it for a 76 yard td. That is not running up the score. THey took a knee on 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th down at the end. I would not complain about that.

Thank You Marauders :!:

You seldom get a second chance in life, but thanks to Meigs, N-Y got one tonight.

Congratulations to Belpre on an outstanding season and a Co-Championship. (I know they would have liked to win it outright, but I am sure if someone would have told the Belpre faithful at the beginnig of the season that they would be Co-Champs, they would have taken it)

Congratulations to Meigs and all their Seniors :!:

They were a very talented team and I am sure they had higher asperations on the season, but they finished on high note.

Just heard C. English had 305 yards total!!! :shock:

Just saw the high-lights on Gridiron Glory. English ran wild and Story really threw the ball well when they had to.

Congratulations to them and the other Seniors.

Like you guys I too watched the highlights on GG. Wow, Story and English both looked awesome. These two rank right up there among the best QB and RB Meigs has ever had.

Through 8 games Cornelius had rushed for 1421 yards and Story had passed for 1058. Not too shabby!

4 HORSEMEN · Post by **4 HORSEMEN** » Sat Oct 27, 2007 12:19 am

Meigs definately had some very impressive offensive weapons this year.

I wondered how the Belpre defense would handle the Meigs offense and it looks like they kind of struggled.

Obviously Story's hand wasn't bothering him too much because GG said he went 5-6 passing and English ran like a beast.

English looked like freakin Barry Sanders out there tonight...Belpre simply wasnt wrapping up though...they would come in high and put a shoulder or helmet on him...but that obviously wasnt doing the trick. Also...Belpre allowed Meigs to convert too many 3rd and longs early in the game...keeping eventual TD drives alive.
