[YOU'RE TIGER BAIT]

VERY STOKED ABOUT THIS GAME FER YA'LL SWASHBUCKLER'S.

[TIGER#27]

Like what everyone is saying about Defense wins Championships and I agree, as both D's are very good, but while Defense wins championships so does having Tanner as a WR.
Pemberville will not be able to contain him.
My predictions is Tanner has 3 TD's and Burg wins 28-21.

[ALLthatJAZZ]

This is how I'll sum up this game...




Sorry Eastwood, but after a few spears and a jackhammer, I see the berg (I mean BURG) bringing the State Title home to Southern Ohio! lol

On Drew Pastuers fantastic 50 rankings he has Eastood at #44 ranked above Clinton Massie at #47 Burg #49 lol now I think those rankings are a joke! GO BURG!

Gonna be one heck of a game both teams are averaging about the same on offense and defense. Burg has had a tougher schedule but not by much.Burg #19 toughest Eastwood #24 toughest. But I do think that Burg had a tougher road to the title game. Also the Eagles and Burg are wery quick and fast to the ball on defense. IMO the Burg is more well rounded on offense.The Eagles tend to run way more than pass. On paper this is pretty much a toss up so I think whoever executes the best and has the least mistakes will win this game. Burg is my pick ofcourse and good luck to both teams for an injury free game. GO BURG 27 to 14

How can you say burgs offense is well rounded when the last 2 games their offense has been no where to be found and the reason burg racked up so many points in the regular season is because of not so good teams yes I’m rooting for the burg but please don’t pound your chest about how good your offense is my rant is over GO BURG

I think Burg beat the best team remaining last week. Madison didn’t get no “love” in the rankings because it was their first time there but that team was legit! Anna, CHCA, West Jefferson, then played ball with us. In my opinion Burg has it easier this week but we’ll see how it goes come Friday

Prediction!!!

Some idiot from Wheelersburg will yet again predict a running clock

lol true! Every burg fan almost says every game will be running clock.

No reason why Burg can't win this game Friday.

Last 2 weeks have been excellent tests for the defense against the Run and Burg defense remains superb.

Eastwood Defense also has been superb for the past 4 weeks during the playoffs, and Burg Offense has struggled the past 2 weeks...I see something finally breaking Friday where Butter, Old School, Sheriff and the boys will be putting points on the board.

BRING IT HOME BURG!!!

I believe he meant Burg’s offense was more well rounded compared to Eastwood’s. Burg’s is maybe a 70/30, 80/20 pass/run team where as Eastwood is a 90/10, 95/5 pass/ run team.
Onto my next point.....BURG WINS THIS GAME!! Doesn’t matter by 1 or 100 points.

Yes only kids 2 and under get in free

[Bleeding Red]

I think if Burg's offense sputters the first half like it has the past 2 games, Eastwood will not let them back in it.

Hopefully Burg gets a fast start. Good luck this week.

Tickets are on sale now until thursday at the high school or at Deemers Go BURG!

OK. Here, poor sports, is why I am now no longer picking Burg. Burg struggled to beat the #140Pasteur ranked team. Eastwood beat South Range, the #85 ranked team easy. Look at not the division's or records , but simply at the rankings of the teams on the schedules and you will see why people are picking Eastwood. Rankings matter, not divisions or record.

By the numbers, Eastwood played tougher teams overall. Good D, solid O, tougher schedule. Eastwood is the pick.

Pasteur is wrong in his rankings! I bet #140 would have beat #85 and maybe Eastwood too. They were ranked low because it was their first time being there. Pretty sure in my opinion, we took out the best team left last week. We shall see friday

Hopefully Burg gets a fast start. Good luck this week.

Past 2? We were up 28-0 at the half week before lasting this past week was because of great d. Madison was battle tested and ran the gauntlet. Pretty sure we beat the best team left in the semifinal. I bet you Eastwood offense sputters this week against this Burg d. We shall see. Go crunch the numbers...Madison d was quite a bit better than South Range

[CavalierAlum05]

Wait.... This game isn't at Herrnstein Field?!?!?!! Enjoyed the past 3 weeks.

Last week Burg fans were saying the same thing about Madison. Learn your lesson and dont be confused about schedules and on paper stats. Heck, there was even mention MAdison didnt look all that great on film. No way Burg coaches will allow a let down. You may lose, but it wont be for not showing up.
