TVC-Ohio Championship: Athens @ Nelsonville-York

[A-Town Big Dog]

I certainly think N-Y has the advantage both in where the game is played and that they are a little more rounded team but a 27+ point win is a pretty bold statement. N-Y may win and maybe by more than one score but 4 scores? I think the Bulldogs are more talented than that.

[93Bulldog]

its those kind of statements that gives Friday's game a much comparison to the 2008 game A-town Big Dog; Athens was 'supposed' to get killed - but - had it not been for a Chance Fox INT in the endzone Athens may have just as well won that game.

[A-Town Big Dog]

Well 93 as they say that's why we play the games.

[NYFan54]

That's why I said, "Thanks for the inspiration." I was only making a joke, but it certainly didn't come out like I had planned. This will be a great game for the fans to watch.

[91Buckeye]

Athens has exceptional skill players and the QB coming back helps. If Harris plays against Alex that game may have ended differently. I think NY will control the line of scrimmage on both sides of the ball and bring home another TVC title.

well my predictions on week 9 were right when NY pulled of 3 TD in the last two quarters to put them ahead with a 4+ TD win, as i predicted.......here, i predict athens to play hard, but i believe that alex winning over athens was a FLUKE (no offense alex fans, but seriously who onside kicks when theyre lined up in deep kick formation?) good strategy but very CHEAP! anyways........athens will play hard for a share of the title, but NY will pull away in the 3rd and 4th......NY by 2 or more..

Lay off on alexander, hater! You dont drink gatorade, you drink haterade! That'd be like saying alex beating nelsonville last year was a fluke. Or wellston beating jackson this year was a fluke. What if i said that nelsonville beating athens last year was a fluke? Lay off.

This will be a great game if both teams bring their "A" game. I have only seen both teams once, but if NY brings the "D" they brought to the first half of the VC game, Athens may pull too far ahead for NY to catch up. Good luck to both teams, keep the injuries down and leace it all on the field. The team that shows up for 4 quarters will win this one!

nelsonville TVC champs,no way athens beats them.

Alexander beating Nelsonville for the first time last year was a fluke, and it wont happen again for a long time. Wellston beating Jackson was also a fluke, that was Jacksons only loss, and look how bad wellston has done since then. But when Nelsonville beats Athens friday it wont be look how many years in a row they have, its called success other schools are jealous and hate Nelsonville because of how succesfull they are. They will bring home another tVC championship this week and put more paint on the wall. Go Bucks

[NY BUCKS]

NY defence AGAIN will be the DIFFRENCE. If THE SAME D SHOWS UP NY WILL ROLL.If not it athens might make a game of it.I still dont think the dogs can hang.

[Orange and Brown]

Last week Dustin young stepped up and put the team on his back in the second half...This week it is Senior night at Boston field and our seniors WILL come away with a victory!

Make sure and say thank you to this years senior class. All the hard work and dedication they put in starting at the Pee Wee level has allowed us to enjoy one of Americas great traditions, Friday night High School Football!

OUR TITLE!! OUR TURF!!!

GO BUCKS GO!!!!!!

I wouldnt call the alexander game last year a fluke. I played in that game and those nelsonville linemen were WEAKKK. pushed them around like i pushed the jv kids around during practice.

[NYBUX]

^^^^^^^^And at that time most of them were sophomores^^^^^^^

[NY BUCKS]

^^^^^^ TRUE NY was young. Now they have playing time diffrent outcome many more wins to follow.Go buckeyes

[j-dizzle71]

i'm just trying to say that it wasn't a fluke. because it wasn't.

[NYBUX]

^^^^^^^^^ Lets see ONE win in the 39 year history sounds kinda flukish to me^^^^^^^^

If this does not qualify as a FLUKE please give me the qualifications of the mysterious FLUKE

[j-dizzle71]

fluke 3 (flk)
n.
1. A stroke of good luck.
2. A chance occurrence; an accident.
3. Games An accidentally good or successful stroke in billiards or pool.

There's the definition, your qualification for fluke. I don't remember winning by chance or luck. The stroke of good luck was that the score wasn't even worse for nelsonville. I remember alexander holding nelsonville's derek arnold to under 50 yards and not letting up one point, dominating nelsonville, blocking a punt, kicking butt in the mud, and winning the game 21 to 0.

[A-Town Big Dog]

Why the heck are people still bickering about N-Y and Alexander? Alexander won fair and square last season (terrible field granted but both teams played on it)as did N-Y this season, both games are in the past so let it go.

[NY BUCKS]

we should be aruging about the REAL DAWG POUND IN BUTCHEL!!!!

[Logan_Buckeye]

All of you bickering about last years loss to Alex is a joke... I live in Logan, I don't miss very many NY games, I am a Buckeye thru and thru and I WAS AT THE GAME LAST YEAR, as I recall, there were two teams on the field, Alex and NY, Alex had more points at the end of the game, therefore, Alex was the better team, THAT NIGHT! Now, get off it and lets start worrying about the Bulldogs, it looks as if everyone is expecting Athens to lay down and let NY run over them... What a joke most of you are, I've watched Athens in Peden Stadium beat up on a very good Parkerburg South team, if that team shows up, NY will have their hands full. Yes, I believe that NY will win in the end, but it could be a nail biter. I think we have the offensive and defensive lines to wear down Athens and they will start making mistakes and get out of their game plan, but I don't think NY will win by 27, that's absurd... 14 is a safe number if NY brings the heat early and often.
