Week 7: Ironton (2-4; 2-0) @ Coal Grove (3-3; 2-0)

[Trojan_Pride]

Who would have thought the big game for Ironton this year would be CG The staff at Ironton has done a bad job this year At the Portsmouth game there were more past coaches standing on the side lines than present coaches It is time for Vass to make a change or move on

was they present at the fairland game also ??? I noticed ironton really try work on things when they got a cushion!!!

play calling has gotten better, # 32 I thought was used perfectly in this last one rest some on offense and potent on defense

carrico and rowe tremendous job at feeling in (hope they continue that)

Both teams are battle tested should be a great game.

[linedrive]

The team that A) Makes the fewest mistakes and B) Capitalizes on the other teams mistakes will be the victor.

[zebra77]

This will be a knock you down, claw your eyes out game, should be a dandy!

The team that A) Makes the fewest mistakes and B) Capitalizes on the other teams mistakes will be the victor.

And the third obvious, the team that scores the most points.
I think the team with the best front 7 on D wins. Gonna be a short game. Run,run,run!!

[Tigercannon71]

With a 7 start time everybody should be home by 9. I'm going to say there will be a total of 5 passes between these two teams. I think Ironton wins this game, but the first half will be very close and they will pull away in the second and win by 2 td's. Really though the only thing you know for sure is this will be a knock down physical fight. Both teams are physical up front and they both got a good stable of running backs.

Did some research. Does anyone else know how many people are buried in the cemetery?

all of them

If you mean buried in the ground, no.

[pmow3]

This game should have some sort of trophy for the winner to keep in their trophy case each year.

It really is a backyard brawl. It's maybe, a 10 minute walk from one home field to the other.

I think it's going to. The OVC Trophy...

This is the 'ZIP CODE BOWL"

Both schools share the same Zip Code 45638

Winner claims the Zip Code til the next year.

Could you imagine what the return address of the loser would look like?

Ironton High School
1701 S. Seventh Street
Coal Grove, OH 45638

or

Dawson Bryant High School
1 Hornet Lane
Ironton, OH 45638

Ouch-Now that's something to play for, right there. (Made me shiver, even when I typed it)

I actually google map the addresses a few minutes ago, and both schools are exactly 3 miles from each other. Shoot you could do a 5k from one high school to the other, the .1 can be finishing on the football field!

Next Year...Move this game to a Saturday at Noon Kickoff

8:00 AM - Have a 5k in the morning from one stadium to the other to benefit both schools' athletic departments

10:00 AM - Visiting team's fans all meet at their own stadium--then en masse altogher WALK to the other teams stadium right through the cemetery and 9th Street. (How cool would that be to have a couple of thousand folks in a parade in Ironton? I think I've seen that before somewhere :-) )

11:00 AM - Tailgate Bean Dinner

12:00 NOON - Kickoff

THIS matchup could be such a great thing for both schools.

[YOU'RE TIGER BAIT]

you'll have to talk with somebody who has some pull henry.

[Senatorz10]

This will be a PHYSICAL Battle. I think Ironton pulls out the win 28-21.

[Trojan_Pride]

[YOU'RE TIGER BAIT]
