Playoffs D5R17 #4 Ridgewood vs. #1 Wheelersburg

[cg-ironton fan]

This went from 0 to 100 in 4 posts. We have people saying they don't make predictions, who obviously did just 2 posts previously. We have people trying to talk about Burg's tradition and how they respect it and 2 seconds later get offended by a Burg posters who brings up said tradition. We've also got schmittie (gotta be CG's cousin) saying he is pulling for the SEO team and brings up a coldh2o drumming the SEO team will take. Then we have Wood fans getting upset or insulted that we start talking about Coldh2o. What in the world happened?
Answer: Schmitt happened.

glad to see you don't forget me pirate LOL but hammer is no kin to me, I just feel bad for him that he has to face the wrath of the inflator LOL.

hammer burg is winning this game by 21+

The inflator? Cmon man. You are doing your inflating too. 21+

Is Chasen Burk playing?

I heard he is.

I do not think he will be playing unless they really need him , hopefully another week of rest.

That's exactly how I said it when I heard about this. But I heard his answer was he is playing. It's his senior year.

All fun and games aside, no one wants injuries or an embarrassing showing. We all want a good game and for absolutely no injuries!

Good Luck to both teams!
Thanks to the few Woodies on here who gave us someone to BS with back and forth. It does get kinda boring in the playoffs when no one from the area is in the board. Hard to try and beat them up. We all want our area team to win and have so much confidence at times we lose sight and go what seems to be overboard.

Bring on Friday!

Go Burg!

Burk will be dressed and ready to play, however with this being his first week of practice for a couple weeks I don't see him getting in. Never know though. Good luck pirates!! Split the wood!

[FIDO]

I'll be shocked if the Burg doesn't win this game. Ridgewood would need a very special offense to overpower the Burg's "D". They have dominated 3 very good teams, one of them twice. They virtually shut all 3 offenses down. They shut down both strong running teams and passing teams. I'm not sure what Ridgewood has to offer in the way of offense but they better be able to control the front 7 of the Burg's "D" or else they'll find it difficult to score. I'll make this prediction...if the Burg scores 14 they'll win the game.

This is the easiest pick this week, Burg walks away victorious with this one by multiple scores.

[Chieftain2009]

Good luck to Wheelersburg!

Less than 7 hours til kickoff! Burg 1st Team Defense has given up an average of 2 points per game. Although Ridgewood Defense is good too, Burg offense will prove to be too much tonight. Running clock in 3rd Quarter. GO BURG! FBT!!!
