#3 Jackson (11-0) vs #7 DeSales (9-2)

Renting OU probably isn't cheap.

Has there ever been a playoff game held at Peden? Anyone?

Ironton played Bellaire at OU

I am thinking Waverly played DeSales there in early 2000's?

[A-Town Big Dog]

I don't think OU is even an option as a host site anymore. With all of the turf fields to choose from anymore there is no need.

Gallia vs desales that same year ironton played that nasty Nate Davis !
Ohio university is a great option for Jackson Desales

[seoconstruction]

The "state" will be biased and give desales what they want ... I've heard about those "state" decisions

[noreply66]

DeSales don't belong in this district.........just the big guys wanting to keep the Southeatern out

Hope the Ironmen beats their butts big time.

[YOU'RE TIGER BAIT]

CONGRATULATIONS IRONMEN, AND GOOD LUCK AGAINST COLUMBUS SAINT FRANCIS DESALES.

[chillman]

in the late 80's early 90's ironton played at least 2 if not 3 or 4 times at peden stadium. i remember giving my ticket to the guy at the gate in 89, st clairsville game, ticket taker said- 'ironton playoff games are the biggest crowds we get, more than any OU game' of course OU was consistently bad in those days and didn't draw well, and ironton was in the middle of a run of going to columbus or massillon on a regular basis and were drawing big crowds. . was always a great atmoshphere

Do you feel the same way about all the other Columbus schools in the region that didn't qualify for the playoffs or just the one school that did?

Some big looking ole boy's, wow! http://pouringpurple.com/Pouring_Purple/Roster.html

Btw, Stallions by 4 TD's

Is DeSales the "home" team at the neutral site because they knocked off the #2 seed Dover or is Jackson the "home" team at the neutral site because we had the higher seed when to begin with?

[79Tiger]

This '79 Tiger says "go Jackson!" Bring that title to southeast Ohio.

[OSU Buckeyes 5]

Is DeSales the "home" team at the neutral site because they knocked off the #2 seed Dover or is Jackson the "home" team at the neutral site because we had the higher seed when to begin with?

Pretty sure DeSales would be the home team unless the OHSAA makes an exception since DeSales will bring about 200 people.

[1959irish]

Jackson will be the home Team !

[IRONMENFAN]

Jackson remains the home team.

[coyote26]

Per OHSAA 2014 Tournament Regulations, it looks like DeSales would be considered the home team.

Yes, DeSales is the home team. The winner of the #2-#7 game is the home team when they play the winner of the #3-#6 game. The winner of the Jackson-DeSales game will the visiting team against the winner of Athens-Tri-Valley (since that match up has the #1 team in harbin average).

[ohbuckeye2]

Is Hamilton Township the closest to both that have turf?

Logan about 45 min from Jackson and about 35-40 from Desales

Hamilton about 1 hr 15 for Jackson and 20 min for Desales

Jackson higher seed than DeSales and Tri higher than Athens....I be a little ticked if Athens gets Logan.

That means they will schedule the game to be played Hamilton, remember your playing a Columbus Team :122245

[jottings]

Several years ago, Gallipolis, Athens and Logan were tri-champs. DeSales beat "em all about 42-0. DeSales should not be in southeast district because they play mostly Division 1 teams during regular season.
