Where as Irontons Offense looks like its been doing well for the last 5 weeks.
Their D hasn't been too shabby either They have been know for giving up a big play every now and then.
Also Ironton played"down" twice with both of those being going to the play-offs.

Highland os more known for their basketball!Won a state title in 1998,Beat Chesapeake in the regional finals that year!

Is it their first time for post season play in footballl? GOOD LUCK TIGERS!!!!!

Here's The Info I have on Sparta so far. If there's a Scot (I'm Scottish myself) that sees anything wrong, please let me know http://www.irontonfootball.com/schedule ... fs2009.htm

Good Luck Tigers from the Grove

Good luck Coal Grove From The Tigers!

You reckon the coaching staff will be wearing kilts?

Ironton, and it probably won't be close. They have similar scores to Ironton, although they play no where near the competition. Make the league proud.

I am willing to bet they have never been any place like Tank Stadium!

Let's hope it doesn't leave any warm memories for them

Ironton will absolutely roll this team.
Ironton by 4 TDs.

I was thinking of coming to se this game, but looks like a blow out, so I,LL save my $$

Looks like a big weekend for football...I believe that I will be traveling to Minford on Friday to root on the mighty sweat bees and then will be at the tank to watch them tigers...what an enjoyable weekend it could be...would love to see both these teams go all the way this year...

Wow, that's a long drive for the Highlanders.

It's a pretty brutal drive for them I agree....

You know you're going to be sitting in Tank Stadium next Friday watching them Tigers. You KNOW you won't stay away!


(ps....don't anyone tell Biggdowgg the game is on Saturday)

sorry, biggdowg already knows the game is on saturday

maybe I can use one of your press passes to get in

Yeah, there you go! free parking too!

now thats funny......Why wouldn't you get in free,Ive seen quite a few people getting in free.

For the kids sake Kantucky,Shotsky and Kent,Sam and Penny all do our kids a great service ,many teams would be happy to have one let alone all these.

Ive yet to see, Turke pay for anything......

you got that right hosscat, its easy to get in free when no one is checking tickets. looking forward to the playoffs.

somoine sure checke my ticket at the back gate this year when we was up there...

maybe I should come through the front gates?

Heres hoping for nice weather,maybe a slight chill in the air.
Along with brats,dogs and whatever else we can think of for the tailgate party!

First of all the weather forecast is for rain again.......


and in case you cant think of anything to go with the brats and dogs just dial.......1-800-GOEBEL............they have some wonderful recipes................

Lets not forget what day its being played on

Tim Belcher, former LA Dodger and Cincinnati Red, was a greaduate of Highland. It is a long haul from Highland to Ironton. 3 hour drive. Im sure Coach Harvey can back me up on this. I have made that drive many a time in my life.

Go Fighting Tigers!

on paper , ironton has a much harder schedule behind them, but the games are not played on paper, go tigers go.

had a great time at warren last night. real friendly folks.

kantucky , thamks again , for your wonderful website. ironton football.com

Ironton

On paper..this looks like one of our easiest games of the year...not to say that the game is going to be easy...as our schedule hasn't given us too many easy teams to play...however...as bait mentioned...games aren't won on paper..Barring any injuries or sickness...I feel that we should stand a good chance of whoopin' up on this team...go tigers go...

Good luck!!!!!!! I'm rooting for you guys!!!!
