[tigerpower89]

Thoughts on this rivalry
Ironton with a dominate showing against Ashland 41-13
While Portsmouth beat Waverly 29-27.

[Trojan_Pride]

team, team , and more team effort will produce another WIN here and should go beyond tonights 41 points we put up

[maniac66]

Portsmouth is a dangerous team and should not be over looked Ironton should win but it's one of those trap games that can cause Ironton to think a 1-3 is no worry.
Be up to the coaches to make sure this team knows that.

[TigerTownKid]

It's Ironton v Portsmouth. If the Tigers are overlooking this game, then they need a reality check. No one should ever need anymore hyping up than what the rivalry itself already provides.

[YOU'RE TIGER BAIT]

I agree ttk. if the fighting tigers keep things rolling they are gonna be a hard out.

[LICKING COUNTY FAN]

If and I mean if the Tigers come out and play their game, without mistakes this one could get very ugly.

[dreamweaver]

Ironton wins by 3 tds

[BurgGrad6]

Ironton will come away with the w this week. However the Trojans are tough. And they play hard the whole game! Is oliver playing this week?

[YOU'RE TIGER BAIT]

this is a rivalry like no other in these parts. I look for a very spirited game by both squads.

Amanda clearcreek won last night as did Russell. which certainly helped the fighting tiger's cause.

[BigBlueNation]

I would say the Trojans are sick of seeing orange-black this will be 4 staight weeks they played a orange-black team.

[local superstar]

Ironton is starting to gel alot better. If the Trojans have Oliver back then it will be an interesting game but with the defense Portsmouth uses it is a bust to win against a big line and talented backs with speed to match some of Portsmouth speed.

[TrojanXplosion]

Fighting Tigers - 48
Trojans - 26

[Gray Fighting Tiger]

I think Portsmouth is lots better than a 1-3 record would indicate. But I'll still pick Ironton to win.

[YOU'RE TIGER BAIT]

I believe so as well gft------------is oliver the qb, a rb, etc. and why has he been out.

[YOU'RE TIGER BAIT]

ironton's opponents to this point in the season are 11-5. and Portsmouth's are 12-4. so they are playing very successful opponents.

[Trojan_Pride]

I believe so as well gft------------is oliver the qb, a rb, etc. and why has he been out.

he is all this + alot more!!! he must be shut down in this game the way we shut down baker/long!!!
