NOW THAT WE ARE BEING CIVIL. HELLO MY NAME IS YTB.
it's always tough in the playoffs. to try to answer your question. some of these teams are enourmous schools, so when they make the playoffs , they are already meeting a beast. i've always thought this, and i've heard many announcers and coaches statewide say this. d4 is the hardest title to win. you are citing rock hill's non-league as not being a faxtor last year. i to be honest with you can't remember their non league. i think they played maybe tolsia, and portsmouth west, is that 2 of them. if i'm wrong correct me, but this year rock hill. plays valley, d5-oak hill d5-ports. west d5-wheelersburg d5-chesapeake d5. that is at least 5 schools i know of that are smaller. only one is really a stud program consistently , the butg. the other schools on the schedule are all d4. which is fine if they werte big point getters. in contrast. ironton plays 2 stud d5 programs. wheelersburg, and nelsonville york. only 2 are d4 . gahs, and portsmouth. everybody else is d1,2, or 3. just a comparison. but if rock hill, and ironton both go say 7-3. and come out of the seson realitively healthy. you'd have to think ironton would go farther in the playoffs. because then, they are playing teams their own size. i don't know if any ovc team has ever played anybody like columbus desales, columbus bishop watterson, or washington dc arch bishop carroll high school. but these teams throw105 players at you, each as good as the last. it's brutal to play teams like this when the tewams here locally , the starters nearly never leave the field. even special teams. that is what makes them, ironton truley battle tested. and you are correct locally teams from seop country have not gone far into the playoffs lately . with the exception of westfall. who just about got to the state game last year. but it runs in cycles. i hoipe lawrence county has 7 yeams in the playoffs this year. it's impossible to make this point without using ironton as a measuring stick. they are the only team, with that much playoff experience locally, at any level. thabks for listening. glad to meet you.

Re: OVC PREDICTIONS
Nirvana If the tigers suck then what does that make the pointer's? Ironton's JV would beat your varsity by at least 3 td's. I do get tired of tiger fans coming over and putting down the OVC but I would never say the actual tiger team sucks. Just some of their fans are very boastful and disrespectful to say the very least. I'm a big Ironton fan but I loved it when my son's team beat them last year in basketball after they dissed the OVC. GO GREEN!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: OVC PREDICTIONS
ok first off in my opinion the ovc will not be a 3 team race...south point really does have the talent and experience to walk through the ovc...i definitly see a playoff push this year for them...as for SP/IRONTON, we could possibly see this game in the playoffs this year, in which i think will be a great game with no blowout at all...i think it could go either way
the pointers have a strong offense that can be hard to handle...they have seagraves, plants, dillion, woodson, and west in the backfield with kratzenberg as the quarterback...tell me how that can be easy to stop....not to mention a line full of experience with pretty much everyone returning
so all im really saying is dont sleep on the pointers because they will surprise some ppl
