RD 3: Loudonville (3-5) @ Coal Grove (5-2)

[EasternDspy]

Doubt Hornets expected a home playoff game but they’ll get one. Don’t be fooled by Loudonville record.

[Matt77]

Stapleton and Wheeler both ran the ball hard against the Zeps. Chase Hall will be back Friday. That’ll be big for the Grove

[EasternDspy]

Loudonville has the best player in the region in Williams-Dixon. This RB is a stud.

Eastern.. if that’s #2. You ain’t lying. Kid is an athlete. I watched Coal Grove and Centerburg/Loudenville both tonight. He had a couple of explosive runs tonight. Noticed Loudenville likes to throw more than the average OVC team does. Kind of remind me of Fairland the way they play.

I watched them vs Northmor and he’s just a monster. Yea he’s number 2. This is why I love this format. Loudonville would of never got a shot because they play such a tough schedule. Decide games on the field.

Exactly right, also have to tip my hat to you, you called it on Loudonville possibly knocking off Centerburg. Been a few games now where teams would've never had a shot at the playoffs but here they are sitting in round 3 ready to play.

Northmor is one of the better teams to they just ran into Loudonville last week.

The Hornets came out strong on the opening drive last night and came away a TD. They also converted several 4th down situations last night. Only punted once the entire evening. Defense bent, but didn’t break. Just like to see some finishing on tackles.

They will need to be ready to stop the run.

Ah another ground attack . Last night was probably one of the fastest games I’ve seen in ages. I’ll have to check the stats on how many passing attempts there were.

I heard they have played there last 2 games without one of there better run stoppers who they say will be back this week so they should be ready

[Paulcrew]

This game comes down to
turnovers. Who will run the ball better. Will potential rain play a roll in this outcome? I believe the Redbirds have played a better overall schedule. If Coalgrove doesn’t turn the ball over, they could pull this out in the end. I hope I’m wrong but I see Redbirds winning 34-29

[REDMEN95]

Good Luck Hornets!

[EasternDspy]

Sam Williams-Dixon only a freshman has 476 yards and 7 Tds in 2 playoff games.

[wch125]

I'll take Loundonville in this one by 3 TD's . They have played a solid schedule and look battle tested for the playoffs. Solid win over Centerburg last week .

Loudonville advances

[MrFirstTake]

I think coal grive wins this game. Have to root for the OVC to win here

[QB’s_Aren’t_athletes]

I don’t think loudonville has faced a team as physical as Coal Grove I’m taking grovers by 6!
