Week 7: Wellston @ Alexander

[Rocketfan88]

How did Alex have 7 refs last night? Thought the max was 5?

I dont care how many officials they had they were terrible!! It looked like it was thier first game in pee wee football.

You got pounded last week. You win a game and want to run down another team. Look at your record you are not exactly a power house yourself.

NOT POUNDING A TEAM AT ALL FREDDIE!! Just a poor officiating crew. Please read those statements again please.

My bad a little reading comprehension problem on my part.

Great win Wellston! That should shut um for a while.

Maybe if Alexander had played a stronger non-league schedule, they would have won this game.

Food for thought.

Congrats to Wellston on the win!!!!

Alexander's strength of schedule is #716 in the state, which is from what I gather, very few away from the worst schedule in the state of Ohio. And yes, their playoff hopes are gone.

According to OHSAA's site there are only 716 teams recognised as playing football this season.

Kind of makes the quotes in the Friday Messenger article with Coach Arno even more memorable, doesn't it? I could spin his words a number of different ways, but I won't.

Only thing that I will say, is, it seems that those who were questioning the validity of the Spartan's schedule, well, they may have had a very valid point.

It will be really hard to buy what Coach Arno said in last Friday's Messenger, if Alex goes 0-4 the last month of the regular season.

Final

Rockets 27
Spartans 14

Awesome! No 80 points this week? They won't win another TVC game this year,I hope Athens beats the guts out of them goes for 2 on every TD and fakes a punt when they are up 40-0

YEA we did find out how good Alexander is!
ARNO is a jerk and a JOKE when you Fake a Punt up 28-0 with 4 mins left just to make the score look better in the papers.
No mercy

Wow, weakest schedule in the entire state of Ohio? Nice!

I knew it was weak, but, wow!

I love how the Messenger and Gridiron Glory called this an "upset". I don't see how it was an upset. Maybe that was just the PC thing to say.

I wonder if the Columbus School for Girls will start playing football? If so, I'm sure they will find their way onto Alexander's non-league schedule.

I will say a couple of the teams they play traditionally have better records than they do this season and they can't really control that. I still think they are a good team that their remaining schedule better not overlook.

If you pull up the football section then click on the divisional breakdown tab it has the numbers. There are a couple of schools that play football in Ohio that aren't recognised by the OHSAA i.e. Columbus Crusaders so I think Pasteur's site actually ranks 718 schedules but it's still not good.

What was said in the messenger? I don't get the paper.

Boy, I hate to quote myself, but my prediction of an 0-4 month for Alexander may be spot on.

They've been outscored 120 - 21 the last three weeks. Ouch.
