Week 5 Piketon (4-0) (1-0) @ Unioto (1-3) (1-0)

Piketon but closer than most think

I'm with ya Ed

[Svcguru]

Piketon by 3 touchdowns. Unioto has given me no reason to think they will be competitive in this game.

[Dundas]

This one could come down to who makes me the mistakes. A lot of people counting Unioto out but they have some talent.

I don't think anyone is saying Unioto doesn't have talent. There's just a difference in the senior heavy talent that piketon has and the much younger talent Unioto has. They're a year or 2 away.

I wasn’t saying people weren’t saying Unioto didn’t have talent. Lol I was just stating that they do have some good players and are capable (IMO) of winning this game.

You may be right. But after seeing Unioto and Zane Trace, I don’t feel like they’re too far off from each other. ZT played Piketon close. So that’s my basis. Maybe I’m wrong. We’ll see.

You could be right. I thought Piketon would handle ZT rather easily and they didn't. Unioto by all accounts should be 0-4. So it could be a great game or a blowout either way wouldn't shock me. Both are well coached teams.

Game day, weather should be perfect for football. Going to check out Rocas for some pregame! Lets Go Streaks!

[MadeInRossCounty]

Streaks keep rollin. Last week's scare makes them play better this week.

[LetsBeReal]

Will be interesting to see how Piketon reacts after last week. I have seen them both play in person. Unioto isn’t horrible and can play good football at times. Depends on what team we get.

Piketon can be lethal.

I think this will be closer than expected.

[BigGuy10]

I think this game can be close, but I believe Piketon has more weapons to pull it out in the end. Look for it to start close but I'm taking the Redstreaks in this one 42-24

[MadeInRossCounty]

Anybody know a score?

[greygoose]

I heard 7-0 Unioto on the radio

Piketon 50-17 middle of the 3rd

I think Unioto really needs to just clean house. Piketon is a good team and definitely better but that’s just embarrassing. The OC isn’t creative at all and the DC gets picked on by the other team every week. And I think Hoops is in over his head. Daddy ball doesn’t work at this level. Playing your kids and their friends leads to poop like this. They have talent but it’s being wasted and will continue to be wasted. Kids who could play in college like Fox should transfer out.

[greygoose]

Piketon with a running clock in this one, I don't know that Unioto has the running game to try and keep this one close

With Netter back (missed the Waverly game), they have a back who is averaging over 110 a game through 3 games. He gives them a big help in the running game.

I don’t see it being a running clock, it might not be close, but Unioto will be competitive for a while if not the whole game

Told ya, Unioto simply just to young with what Piketon has.

Unioto is very young so might have to cut them some slack, but Hoops isn't a football guy.

Yep. Unioto ran/moved the ball well (nearly 200 yards on the ground), but Piketon’s explosiveness exposed Unioto’s D. What looked like a strength in the early season has turned into a big weakness.

Still some time to get things fixed, thankfully won’t see an offense like what Piketon/Waverly have.

I was very impressed with Piketon offensively and their defense hit very hard. Still have to tighten that up, but that offense is awesome.

Now the big test for Piketon, Paint Valley with that big line and the running attack they have.

Yep. If they win that next week, they will coast to 10-0

After seeing both, I think Piketon is around a 10 point favorite at home though.
