This statement just blows my mind, I get if you’re trying to gas light. Burg loses the SOC title and beats Prep of beats a Ironton and doesn’t win SOC ppl will be upset. Banners get hung for championships a pat on the back is what you get for a Ironton or prep win, unless it’s in the playoffs.
Let’s take a poll
:D Coming into the yr would burg fans take 6-4 with losses to the teams they always lose to and a soc championship or 9-1 with obviously wins over ironton, Jackson and prep with a loss in week10 to west and no championship
Now let’s apply that logic to Ironton…

Would they trade their recent wins against Burg for a state title in 2017, or are they happy with the Burg wins and no state title since 1989?
So you’re honestly trying to compare a state championship to a SOC championship

Fbnut, big spoon, janjkang, or whatever user name he chooses for the week only offers insults… my assumption on this poster is they either never played football or is a kid because their posts are uninformative or childish.

Burg is a solid team. Thats it. Their best team in the last 10 years won the state championship needed a miracle to win it. That’s why Ironton hasn’t won it yet. They’ve brought in talent but you need a few bounces your way.

Ironton isn’t out of the woods in their own region. Prep is loaded with talent. Columbus Academy and Barnesville look solid and Even burg is going to give someone fits.

What have I said that’s wrong? They aren’t 1-15 post Holden? Attendance isn’t way down? You say solid team, I say avg. really not that far apart. You think they have improved. I think they just aren’t playing anyone. You say insults, I think it’s reality.

I’m no ironton fan but I’m taking the state title. Now your turn. Next season you want wins over ironton and Jackson or a SOC title?

Don’t tell me you’re a Jackson fan?!?!

It depends. In the regular season, always the SOC. In the playoffs, a win against IHS is HP.

Keep in mind, here are Burg’s goals:
- SOC championship
- Home field playoff game
- State title

So I would trade a SOC title for a win against IHS or HP (playoffs) in order to advance towards a state title.

Example: take the 2021 season. More than happy to take the huge loss in game one of the regular season against IHS in
exchange for a close playoff win against IHS.

I don’t really believe you but that’s ok. If that’s truly the case then the burg football program is meeting your expectations
Isn’t 10-0 somewhere in those goals also?

Reading comprehension is not your strong suit, is it?

Not comparing a SOC championship to a state title. Showing how meaningless game one and two of the regular season are if goals are not met.

Example: Ironton’s goal this year is a state title. Beating Burg is a means to an end, but they would happily sacrifice game one of the regular season every year in exchange for a state title. And if they don’t bring home said title, the Burg win won’t be much of a consolation prize.

Lose week 1 and one of burg goals is already unattainable. I would sacrifice week 1 and 2 for a state title to but I’m not seeing any state titles for the burg since 2017. Just a bunch of loses to the same teams yr after yr.

Hence why it’s a goal. Not all are easy to attain!

And a 2017 state title is much sweeter than not having won one since 1989, or in Jackson’s case, not ever having won one.

Btw, since you are not a IHS fan, which team do you support?

Totally agree but you have to admit that 1-15 hurts and really isn’t up to burg standards or at least it didn’t use to be

Losing always sucks. And as most Burg fans, I don’t take it well.

But I also know the mentality at Burg when it does come to winning regardless of sport: SOC first step, state title second step. It’s how we measured ourselves when I played, it’s how they measure themselves today. And beating specific teams? Again, only matter with regards to those goals!

So beating SOC teams takes precedence during the regular season. Beating IHS or HP matters more come playoff time.

That’s interesting for two reasons:

One, given you played for Burg, you should understand the importance of the SOC championship. All the coaches in every sport talk about it being the regular season goal. Yet your statements about Burg minimize the importance of winning the SOC. Someone who played at Burg should understand this.

Second, your posts come off as an outsider making observations about Burg compared to one who has a strong connection to the school.

You asked, I answered honestly. All I can do. Shouldn’t be hard to figure out since 99% or higher of my posts are on burg topics.

I’m not saying it’s not a good thing to win the SOC but things have changed. A successful season for burg shouldn’t be winning the soc. It should be beating ironton, beating Jackson, winning the soc, advancing, beating and competing against powerhouses in the playoffs. Let’s be honest the SOC is usually pretty weak. Maybe once every 5 yrs there is a team capable of beating the burg. Look at the softball team, won the soc again but most would say there season was not a successful season because of expectations and how it ended.

Many outside of Burg post mostly about Burg. LOL!! Also, you have something attached to your posts that is odd: “ 1-15 Pendleton broke Wheelersburg Football RIP.” Very odd for a Burg fan to have that on every one of their posts.

Given Pendleton is from West, and also given his recruiting tactics to make IHS what they currently are, no Burg fan would praise him. No Burg person would be a fan of Pendleton.
