Let's get behind the boys and the staff and beat Wheelersburg for the first time since (I think) the 70s!

In short, the Pirates are stepping it up and getting the most out of their kids. On the other hand I think it is also a fair statement to say that Northwest has under achieved and it is not out of the question for this team to have been undefeated at this point in the season. So what's it gonna be Friday night? What will be the deciding factor when the final seconds tick off the clock? In short, the Wheelersburg Pirates do not have a "star player" among them, however, they are a well coached disciplined football team comprised of kids that come from a tradition of excellence on the gridiron. Burg does not rebuild, they reload! Like to see the Mohawks hold them to less than 30 points and put a few scores on the board themselves and at least be competitive Friday night.
Based on your post, I don't think you have seen the Burg this season. The Pirates most certainly do have a star player in quarterback Alex Shears. I have seen film on him, but watching him in person Friday night he is the real deal. Solid arm, great feet, and a good feel for the game.
This won't be a normal Burg-NW game, but Burg still wins with ease. 35-13
I would say that is an unwritten law that you WILL be in the weight room in the off season in the Wheelersburg program. It's just about attitude and work ethic. I'm sure there are some Mohawks that dedicate alot of off-season time to weights and getting stronger and quicker (Luke Brown for instance) but it has to be everybody with that work ethic and that dedication to becoming a better football player and a better team (coaches included).FIDO wrote:Burg is always good. Even a down Burg is better than the vast majority of local teams. Those who are believing the Burg can't win out are kidding yourself. Prove me wrong on the field and not on a chat board. I'm not buying the BS!!
You missed out on Northwest's 1970 victory over the Pirates by one season. The Mohawks finished that season at 6-2-1 overall and 4-2-1 in the SOC, good enough for 3rd place in the then 8-team SOC (West, Notre Dame, Wheelersburg, Valley, Northwest, Minford, East and New Boston...1970 was the first year after Waverly vacated the SOC for the SEOAL for a short while).Burg_Grad_77 wrote:The Ripper wrote:Kenraken Ahta, I agree - this team could very easily be 5-0 if they had a bounce here - interception there.

I have lived in Wheelersburg since 1971 and they haven't beaten the Burg since then. I really don't see them doing it this year either.
and your point is??????????????UPNYA4 wrote:I tell ya this much, if the UPSET somehow does happen....you will have thought NW won the STATE TITLE afterwards!!
cause I was gonna say I'm pretty sure West & Northwest have won the same number of state titles in football....0UPNYA4 wrote:uhhh....Point is that it’s NOT!!
perhaps but it wouldn't be as bad as the slew of comments that would come in from (some) posters saying how northwest used every which way to cheat in order to win...but this is all hypotheticalUPNYA4 wrote:I tell ya this much, if the UPSET somehow does happen....you will have thought NW won the STATE TITLE afterwards!!
I think that's the point of these forums, get a little excitement about football. The current team sure has some excitement out in Mohawk land. This year is probably the best chance NW has had in a long time to at least be competive.UPNYA4 wrote:LOL...true
But, boy we sure know what it feels like to be there though :122249
Don’t get me wrong, I would be tickled if NW pulls it off!!
Maybe the same amount of state titles but no where close to the same number of SOC titlesSlew72 wrote:cause I was gonna say I'm pretty sure West & Northwest have won the same number of state titles in football....0UPNYA4 wrote:uhhh....Point is that it’s NOT!!
