[LICKING COUNTY FAN]

I am making the drive down to see this one.

I might do a game report on it but will decide that later.

[noreply66]

Best tem Nelsonville will see all year.

Ironton runs all over the Buckeyes

[NY BUCKS]

NO DOUBT Ironton will be the best Team NY has faced this year.
Probally the BEST BACK IRONTON HAS FACED ALL YEAR
AT THE TANK
NY COMING OFF A HUGE WIN
IRONTON WANTING LUTZ TO GET THE WIN
NY DONT WANT IT TO COME AGAINST THEM





IRONTON 21








NY 28 GO BUCKS!!!!

Too bad none of the bigger papers in Ohio didn't pick up the news of Lutz tying the record.
I hope someone gets a press release ready in the coming weeks if Ironton wins and faxes news of the record being broken to the Dispatch, Plain Dealer and Enquirer so people outside the distribution range of a West Virginia paper see the news..

it is sad 71. if you watch the news from columbus NOT 1 THING is mentioned about the history that is being made in I-TOWN!! football friday night/1st and 10 nothing!!

good luck to both teams but, i see i-town win this by 2 or 3 tds. i-town is just to much of a punishing team. and there starting to throw the ball more!

[buckeyeguy]

I hope for once it will be dry out hows the feild there in itown.. and wouldnt it be nice to see ironton play amanda clearcreek it will happin. goodluck buckeyes

[buckeyeguy]

i will say ironton will be surprised by our lines speed, i know their running game is tough but we get to the ball fast and we can tackle. ny will not lay down they will give all they got, never seen a team with as much heart as these boys, makes us proud to be buckeyes

[SSU Grad]

Go Buckeyes !

[dilligaf]

Wheelersburg and Logan had great speed...but our line handled them up front all night long...Logan's line got beat every play...we just allowed a couple of nice passes to get past our deep guys...I don't worry about our line at all getting "Surprised"....If you have a qb that can throw...then maybe we might worry a little...but line...NO!!!!

Ironton by 21 or more

[TIGERS90]

well atleast ny gets to be part of history

That's funny....but true

[buckeyeguy]

ironton had no chance agianst logan,, score was closer then it should of been yes but if u playd logan 10 weeks in a row u will lose to logan 10 weeks in a row

[TIGERS90]

:lol: ironton had no chance agianst logan,, score was closer then it should of been yes but if u playd logan 10 weeks in a row u will lose to logan 10 weeks in a row

I didn't say that we would or should have ever beaten logan's team....but the fact is that our line beat logan's line all night long...just speaking what happened...and also said that we beat wheelersburg up front too...another fact...they may beat ironton too if played 20 times...but that night Ironton's line did win the battle up front......before you criticize...read what is put in front of you...This isn't a slam against logan..they as a ball team outplayed Ironton...Although if ironton didn't pass the ball at the end and had continued to run the ball...I believe myself that Ironton wins that game...

isn't this a NY vs. I-Town thread, so,I pose this ? can NY's line play ball with Ironton's BIG 5 all night, don't think so, NY hasn't faced a line with this size and athletisism all season. GOOD LUCK to both.

Great post, mama. It appears Ironton will have to bring NY back down to earth after the surprise win against Athens.
I predict Ironton will send the young bucks home cold, shamed, and probably with some aches and pains.

Maul 'em Tigers.

[Green Beagle]

Wow, I surf all over these threads and really dont understand why you wouldnt support a team from your area. Ny has really scheduled some nice teams and open themselves up to this. How many other tvc teams have picked up Ironton or even teams of that calliber? I dont think NY will win. But I wont get on here and bash them. My hat goes off to them for going out and getting Ironton on their schedule. Maybe they could have gotten a small school from WV or a christian school It seems as though they have scheduled up when so many of the teams in our area are going the other way. Good luck to the Buckeyes, Hope you stay injury free.

[Bishtakes]

Thank you Green Beagle for the observation. While most football programs want to be like Ironton, I am proud to be a part of this small D5 school with a community that might not be as large as Ironton, but I can guarantee you we support our athletes more than they do. I'm talking about a school district that has a mandatory drug testing policy for students involved in ALL extra-curicular activities from grades 7 to 12 (Band, Sports, Choir, Cheerleading, etc). A community that built a facility from private funds (2 million dollars) that is a model for the ones that are being built around us everyday. An athletic booster organization that operates on a $500,000 dollar budget annually. A state championship and soon to be 18 league titles.

Ironton has a ton of support also. If you look at the number of topics on this site, one out every four has the name Ironton in it. Oh...btw...please limit your topics and posts to more relevant high school football stuff.

While "The Tank" has some history, I want to put a warning out to the NY fans that are making the trip. You have to park in somebody's driveway because they have NO parking lots. It smells, because of the recent rains, the sewage is having trouble exiting to the Ohio River . And I understand that Asa the rent-a-cop who watches a gate on one side of the stadium will not allow you to enter or exit so watch where you park and where you enter.

As for the wins record...should have been accomplished last week. Although you won last week, I'm talking about the state final game when he decided to "Go For It" instead of punt.

Last year, this was the same talk about the game and how bad Ironton was going to stomp our ___. I'm sure the 150 fans that made the trip and the football team was scratching there heads when they left Boston Field. While we start 7 sophmores, they play with a lot of heart.

Good Luck Bucks...another league title and another playoff birth.

Hey...where was fanofsports after the Athens game? Haven't heard from that Ironton fan.

Oh, and Noreply, thanks for your support.

[boilermaker]

If you are refering to me green beagle, I have always supported Ironton . I am a Rocket first and foremost,but I have always liked Ironton's style of football.I also have great respect for Coach Lutz and what he and Ironton's Community has built.

GO TIGERS

[mr.dude2010]

NY can take the excitement of the end of the Athens game and try to build off of that at Ironton. Keep pumped up all week during practice!!!!
