The Logan/Jerome winner would play the Louisville/Independence winner in the second round.

That can't be good!!! The Leopards are LOADED!!!!

Good Luck Logan!!!!!!!!!!!

[Auburntgrfan]

After seeing Logan they are impressive. Knowing nothing about the Columbus area team, but knowing there are many quality football teams in the area, this should be a great game. I am in hopes that Logan comes out on top and continues on down the road. Good Luck to Coach Amex and The Chieftans

O-Line averages 225 pounds from tackle to tackle.

They essentially run two offenses: Double-Wing and Spread.

Their double wing has nobody split out and the block and read blocks VERY well. They have good backs, and experienced QB good at hiding the ball.

In the spread they have great receivers and Jackson is mobile. They have had a couple 300+ yards passing games.

Key Defensive Players:
DE - Rick Armstrong - 6'5, 220lbs, SR - Tall athletic end

Chiefs will have their hands full. When healthy, the Jerome offense has been pretty hard to stop. Even against Scioto, they rolled up 25 first downs and over 400 yards of offense.

And lost by 4 TDs....

Walked into the AD's office at 7:30 this morning. Bought 14 reserve tickets and 4 general admission. GO CHIEFS!!!!!!!!!

LG -

Well, that was no disrespect intended to Scioto. The point is that Jerome, when healthy and not turning the football over, can move the football on people. It will be important for the purple and white to take advantage of mistakes and execute on offense.

I don't see much of a battle for logan this week...I don't think jerome is gone to lay down...but Logan has what I believe the best logan team I have seen....I think it will be tough for anyone to come in and beat logan in the region...until the meeting against desales...and they are beatable...Many people from desales say they have the best team ever...I think that is hard to believe...looking at their schedule and wins..I don't think it is as impressive as many past years....don't set your sites at just winning a playoff game...set them higher...you have a good team this year...by the way....Go Tigers...Go SEOAL

In my best Jim Mora, "PLAYOFFS?" Or more accurately, "DESALES?" Don't overlook Louisville or for that matter, Dub Jerome. I know a lot of people last year who were probably looking past Tri-Valley. One game at at a time. DUBLIN JEROME!!!!!!!!!! That is the only team Logan needs to worry about.

[BuckeyeCAV]

GO Logan!

GO SEOAL!

Good Luck Logan.....Logan 27 Dublin Jerome 22

[Burg_Grad_77]

Jerome plays a much better schedule which should prepare them well for this one.

I'm still going with Logan,35-20.

Logan's opponents combined record 53-47
Jerome's opponents combined record 45-55

I'd say Logan's schedule was better.

But if you look at Jeromes schedule they played all D1 and D2 schools while Logan played 2 D3 and 2 D4 schools, so I would still give that edge to Dublin.

Having said that though, I'm still pulling for Logan and think they come out the winner in this matchup.
