WK12: 4. Trimble (11-0) vs 1. Springfield (11-0)

[EasternDspy]

Great game to watch. Love watching two polar opposite slug it out. Had the feel of a regional final not semi final.

That is the disappointing part.

SHOULD HAVE never driven TWO hours for a week 12 game.

This region was total B.S. from the beginning.

Every division is drawn up into 4 corners, SW, SE/C, NW, NE ... except D6 ... They screwed Fort Frye, NY, Trimble, Belpre clear back in the summer.

If you want to take it a step further, Trimble should be playing Waterford tonight in the D7 regional semi's. They should have never been D6 to begin with ... This one is a little understandable, competitive balance screwed the little guy when it comes to the 2019 Cats, I get it. The first, the D6 regional alignment is not understandable. It was total crap by the OHSAA!

Fort Frye and Trimble should be playing next week in regional final in 23. No way they should of been moved and Carey and Wast Knox benefited from it.

Couldn’t agree more. REGIONAL final would have certainly been FF and Trimble. Both teams played state final 4 matchups last night essentially. Just absurd, I’m sure both had chances to win it’s just the fact the state botched this whole scenario entirely.

[SportsFan101]

I’m curious to see the stat line from last night. Feel like Trimble dominated most of the game and wonder if that shows in the stats (except points obviously).

Trimble & Springfield played a tough in the trenches great game, Going into the Half I think Trimble should have kicked the FG and go into the Half up 10-7, It was that FG that came back too bite them, Yes there was some questionable calls, but what game doesn't have them, The Final drive Trimble only needed 4 Yards for the 1st down, they should've tried too get the 1st in my opinion instead of going all out, but that's why coaches coach and we be fans, the coaches seen something that the fans didn't, Trimble took a tough loss too a good Springfield Tigers team and Springfield is moving on too the Finals, Congrats too the Springfield Tigers on moving on, If your going too lose, lose too the Champion, I'll be rooting for Springfield Tigers too win the DVI Title, Good luck the rest of the way

Competitive Balance, just a number to keep the private schools happy.Half the kids that open enrollment don’t even play sports.Should refuse to accept them, but there is more than sports to life. I Guess!!

[coachK]

C. B. Is different for each sport, if they don’t play the are not counted. #’s say D6 not D7..

[Tigerfan]

So stupid to bring up competitive balance, Trimble has 113 base kids before CB. Only team in DVII larger than them is Fort Loramie with 114. So with or without CB, Trimble is DVI.

Tuff loss, great run by these senior players, they’ll be missed.

I’ve heard talk of officiating in his game. It was one of cleanest games I’ve seen n long time. I kinda felt the flags were thrown at wrong times to let everyone know the “stripes” were still in field. And the 15 yarder on Trimble last drive was a total chicken s**t call. It’s a high school kid being excited. (Unless he dropped the big word bomb). And I thought 2pt should have been offsetting at min

So, schools larger than them are D 7? Guess what that means?

Same exact thing happened to ironton in the regional finals when they lost to Bishop Hartley and Bishop Hartley went on to win state ironton stopped them 3rd and long to make it 4th down and they were up 20-19 Bishop Hartley should have punted but the ref threw a flag for celebrating and Bishop Harley got the first down and went on to score and ironton only had about 40 seconds when they got the ball back. I think that was 2010 or 2011

You tell me....there are about 12 schools that have the same or less students than Trimble. So bump Fort Loramie up, and you still miss out by 11 schools
