Game 13: Notre Dame (11-1) @ Symmes Valley (?-?) 1/15/13

[TitanPride]

ND coming off another smothering victory against Clay. ND's opponents PPG maybe top in the county right now. I realize not the best of competition but I think that's 3 straight games with teams scoring under 35 for the entire game. This could be a trap game for ND playing on the road. I think Coach Mader will have them ready, to much of a veteran team to look ahead to Friday. Thoughts/Predictions?

Symmes is the only team in the league that matches up with Notre Dames overall size. It's a long ride down there for a game and the Rowe kid for Symmes is playing pretty well. Against Eastern Symmes missed a ton of bunny shots if they want to hang with Notre Dame they better board and make those bunny's.

This should be the game of the night in the SOC1. SV can win, but it will take the performance of the year to do it. Notre Dame should win, but that's why the games are played.

I'll say ND 54 SV 45

SV has the ability to beat the Titans. As had already been said, the Vikings have the strength and size to matchup with ND. If their guards can handle the pressure and the Titans get a little motion sickness from the ride out 141 to Willow Wood, the Vikings can win,

I am picking the upset. SV 60 ND 58

ND will not take this lightly. They are too mature of a team and realize they need to be ready to play.
Titans by 15.

I'll agree with Cinders, the Titans come into this game prepared and the focus is winning tonight. I don't think the Vikings have faced a better defense and press like the one they will tonight.
Symmes matches up in size, but that is all in my opinion. ND has too many weapons they can turn to and it's hard to guard 2 guards who can light it up. Mader and Ogg will need to be physical and control underneath. Titans go 9 deep and that is hard to keep up with over 4 quarters.

Titans wear them down and control the game. I'll take the Titans in this one.

Must have been a slow paced game usually these 2 teams get out and run.

[Futurebkstar]

Wow, let me first say i am so proud of the vikings tonite. They havent had a win like that in years. I anm glad Sv made the decision of hiring coach saunders and coach brace. They did a phenominal job with this team. The boys are starting to understand them and its coming together as a team. The boys held notre dame to 14 points at the half. They got after it tonight. The crowd was great and excitement is back in willowtown!

[gipper]

Just want to give a big shout out to the Symmes Valley student section...they are doing a great job out there and make the game a lot of fun for the players and the crowd...hope to see the student section continue to grow and get louder every game!!

[Futurebkstar]

The student section was rocking tonight!

[Eaglesnest]

Congrats Vikins!

[SOCFAN1430]

Wow, I'm a little shocked but great job by SV. I'm just glad the Eagles don't have to go down to your place and play again.

Eaglesnest - You called it

[Lightle04]

I thought this could happen Symmes Valley is yet to play there best ball this year. What stinks is the Eagles have to play them again.

[Tartanblue]

this win helps open the SOC I back up for Eastern Pike and East
