Week 7: (5-1) Ironton @ (1-4) Pikeville KY

[fbnut]

Ironton has the #1 strength of schedule in D5. Wheelersburg and Midland has drug that down. They have blown everyone out but Clarkson North who no one in D5 would even schedule let alone beat. Jealousy and hatred is an awful thing in the land of Milk and Honey. Liberty center has played no one good. Liberty Center hasn’t even played a Hartley. Who just about beat the #1 D3 team this past week in Bishop Watterson

#1 strength of schedule? Ironton is currently #11 in D5 computer points so not sure that SOS is legit. Also not sure why you called out Liberty Center, but they have more computer points than IHS.

As for “no one in D5 would schedule Clarkson North”, you do realize Harvest Prep scheduled Pick Central? Also scheduled Sandusky Perkins and Cincinnati LaSalle? That’s quite the schedule!

With regards to Hartley, yes they came within 15 points of Watterson, but also lost by 31 points to Ursuline. They even gave up 28 points to 1-5 Elyria Catholic. Will probably finish below .500.

So yes, Ironton has a very good team and a great shot at state, but they aren’t the only team playing tough schedules. Definitely do not appear to have the toughest schedule even in D5.

Circling back here. Ironton now 1st in the state in computer points. This despite being 9-1 against several 10-0 teams. Would you now say they played the toughest schedule? For the record, I wouldn’t.

First in D5

Yes, Ironton being #1 in the region is a reflection of their schedule. Whereas 10-0 Barnesville is #3 because their schedule wasn’t nearly as tough.

Now your argument could be made about HP sitting at #4, or even Burg sitting at #14, but two teams with identical records? Computer points tend to be a strong indication of schedule.

Green shoulda been in the mix
