WEEK 5: JACKSON (4-0) at WHEELERSBURG (4-0)

[The Oaf]

He is petty much spot on about the Scioto County bit. Have you seen the ppl driving in NB? Ignorant.

Jolly, the only way I could tolerate driving out through New Boston would be if I was leading a Panzer Division my friend!

Heard from a very reliable source today that burg and Jackson deal was renewed for 4 years!

I have seen Jackson, Ironton and Wheelersburg play this year and none of them looks like a regional champ to me. There's a hole in all their buckets.
I'd say Valley has the best shot of the southern Ohio teams because they're in a smaller division.
All the SOCII schools are a division or two higher than Valley and that makes a difference come playoff time.
When you're used to wrestling a weight class higher it's easier to deal with someone your own size. *If you don't get beat up doing it!

Good news both from a competitive situation and from a $$$ at the gate and concessions perspective.

Trimble (D7) and/or Valley (D6) are probably the odds on favorite for local SE teams to get past Regionals....not sure maybe Athens in D3 Region 9 (this weeks' game against Big Red will tell us a lot).

[IRONMENFAN]

If Athens gets beat this week they probably won't make the playoffs.

Nope, 9-1 will put them at the 6 seed spot most likely. See Drew Pasteur's site, he is pretty accurate when it comes to projections.

If you are a Jackson fan, you want Athens to win this Friday in Death Valley, we do not want them in the 6 seed spot and us in the 3 seed for a Week 11 match-up.

Why not in week 11 your going to have to play them at some point. Hopefully in the pouring down rain!

Not if they get beat by somebody we match up better against first.

Need to take this discussion to Region 9 thread lol
