Playoffs 2020 Northwest 21 - 20 Portsmouth

[packers80]

I feel the seeding for NW was skeptical at best. Good luck to both teams in the post season however.

Seeding is skeptical at best but we shall see Friday nite.

Good Luck Northwest

Going against your own conference?

I sense some hostility with him, could be because the Redmen haven’t beat Portsmouth but one time since they joined the OVC (2015) or maybe he’s rooting for NW because their mascots are similar..hard to tell with those guys up on the hill.

Interesting match-up for sure. I'll go with Portsmouth 33 Northwest 21.

If Portsmouth can stop the run or at lease attempt to play defense they will win. Seemed to of played well against Gallia

no hostility here...seems like your the one creating the hostility

Portsmouth big, Northwest will not be prepared to play someone their size.

NW had work done to their facility recently..
Hopefully they had seating installed on the away side??

Looking forward to this one Saturday night. Will be a good indicator of whether or not a SOC I schedule hampers Northwest against bigger schools. With playoffs expanding to 12 teams/region next year, Northwest should be close to qualifying most years. Question is how prepared will they be to face other D5 teams come playoff time?*

If I’m not mistaken this is the first ever playoff appearance by northwest

I don't really consider this a playoff appearance. I think if teams win the first round then they can say a playoff appearance but when you have teams that have only won 1 game how can you say they made the "playoffs"?

Bleachers on both sides.

Good point

I’d like to take in this game. I’m sure I won’t have the chance but I’d like to check out Northwest’s new facility.

In this fake playoff game. Ill take NW by 6.

[Lutey1985]

Portsmouth’s defense is horrible. Also their best receiver is out. If Northwest can cleanup the turnovers they can control the clock by running it. Portsmouth only wins if they complete a few big plays. Northwest 31-21

The list of strange things to happen in 2020 continues.

What the heck, Northwest for the W.

Pendleton is the best receiver and he is playing. Pendleton is the best player on the team both offense and defense and only a sophomore. I know the Dixon kid quit and heard the Bryant kid is back.

I always have been impressed with him. He is as tough as they come.

Call the MS at 740-259-2528. I hear the Principal is a pretty cool guy and would show you around the facility.
