Wheelersburg 21 - 20 Minford

[vladimir]

Didn’t need to to watch the film, lol. It was right in front of the refs or out by theirselves in the spotlight. All stupid mental penalties. As for Minford it was just the quicker D line. I said it last night. Both teams killed theirselves with turnovers and penalties but all 22 out on the field left it right there, on the field!! I say best game so far this year. Also what a play on 2 point conversion Lewis gives it to Wiget burg thinks it game after tackling him short but before Wiget goes down he pitches back to Lewis and tied the game, great stuff and alert!!

100% agree with you!

BondRoad Bandit, I believe Minford only weak spot is ur kicking game. Extra point shaky all year, no deep kick offs, or field goals. I hate it but that’s the huge part in playoffs. Why isn’t Bob kicking off or extra points? He won PP&K 2 years in a row. I could understand if he was straight on kicker needing to change his shoe but he is soccer style and uses same shoe, makes no since too me. He kicked all the way up until now when it counts the most

^I addressed this a few weeks ago, and said it needed to be fixed or it was going to cost Minford dearly. I don't like to single kids out, but something has to be done, b/c I've seen enough. 3 missed chip shots in the Wilmington game, are ya kidding me?

The kid that is out there now doesn't keep his head down and looks up at the D-line. W'burg overloaded the left-side, look at where the ball went, and it looked to me he kicked the middle of the ball. That's what happens when you don't keep your head down. It's like he's not a football player and is afraid he's going to get hit or something. IDK, but this is a problem and needs to be on the top of the agenda the next meeting.

Ruby's decision to go for 2 in OT is b/c he didn't have a choice. If he put that kid back out there and he shanked it again, I think the kids would have killed both of them.

14U, who's Bob?

I don’t like picking a player out either but that’s one position you just can’t help because there is is one! Oh it’s risner been called that for years. I liked the go for 2 because Minfords line was getting gased. I saw 2 up close getting sick and another gasping, that goes with playing both ways no subs and playing hard every play

Bottom line if you don't have a qb and short of receivers that can catch a throw ,don't throw the ball.

Wheelersburg is back to reality. Minford should’ve won. Good game Minford. Waverly will beat Wheelersburg.

Says an Ironton fan.. I do not blame you wanting Burg to not win out, so Ironton would not have to play them again this year...I can hear the worry in your words

[Larry Fine]

Never seen Wheelersburg fans so happy to beat minford. You got lucky and you know it. Get used to 7-3 seasons. Minford outplayed scioto county.

Keep making fun of Minford. The truth is it took a failed 2 point conversion for you to beat Minford , even with all those scioto county kids . You’re 2 plays from being 1-5.

Those 2X a year shellackings Burg laid on the Tigers these last few years has really filled your heart with hate, huh Larrwy? Go ahead Larrwy, tell me about the 30-6 win you all had with Burg this year...you guys don't have much else to hang your hat on! Go ahead, might make you feel better!

What about all the years the Tigers beat down the Pirates before that ? Hope you keep getting the best kids from all the area schools. The trend of all the area kids running to Wheelersburg is over.

Ironton is called the all tri state team!! Ashland, Russell, raceland, Portsmouth West, Rock hill, Columbus etc!! Missed a few too, lol. With many empty apartments. Name the schools burg players are from that has football at their schools? Now I’ve been told by burg friends they might move in during elementary or junior high but live in burg now!

[LucasDavenport]

I picked the under and am highly disappointed:

It was 12 hours from end of game.

Over/under til the statement is made: Burg still hadn’t won vs an Ohio team in regulation this year.

Lost another one

You're "hometown" officiating crew kept you all from being .500 too! You know what I'm talking about, the ball that was bobbled and declared caught, by ol' Homer going into the end zone against Russell and also, the ball that was trapped off the turf that was declared a catch and led to the field goal (your own radio announcer said it he hit the turf).... you know what I'm talking about Larrwy, the game you won 10-0 that should've went to OT, that Russell very well could've won, because the vaunted tiger defense was wearing down against those Red Devils... hey..."it's only Russell"....yeah, I remember you all throwing that out there too! Remember Larrwy?

Back when lutz recruited hard took the best out of Lawrence county and across the River in the 80’s. Also seen them from Cincinnati, deep in Ky land St. Louis. Ironton double enrollment over burg in the 80’s and 90’s.being from Portsmouth for 60 plus years and remember those days, even had a relative lived by lutz asked me to come to play, just give their address. Larry must be a move in if he doesn’t remember those days. Ironton was 2-3 deep per position.

I remember ironton going into the OVC and happy went crazy to win against some of those teams too. Ironton should dominate that league year in and year out but have they?
