Good luck from Logan! My wife's family lives near Albany, and says there is more buzz about the team than in the last 20 years. Good 4 U.
Amanda is not new to the playoffs. Tough draw, but at least you have similar field conditions from what I hear!
Don't let anyone tell you it's too difficult. If you're in it, you can win it. The clock gives everyone the same amount of time. :-D

Good luck to the only Ohio division school to make the playoffs. Great job but it might be a long night. I will either be at Logan or might make the trip to Amanda.

First off i want to say congrats to Alex. Second i want to say this game could be awful interesting. Amanda was in the talk of winning state this year, but they took a big hit last friday. They lost their starting RB Dilly to a season ending injury with a broken leg. I was looking forward to watching this 230lb RB run the rock. I wish him the best. I don't care how good you are or what traditions you have, losing him will hurt Amanda. I've heard they have a really good backup that is fast but no where near 230lb. Losing your best player that you depend so much on will hurt, how much will be seen saturday. This in my opinion will give Alex more than a chance since Amanda's passing game isn't very good from what I'm hearing from some Aces. Good luck to Alex and I hope both teams have an injury free game.

Amanda's strength is their defense. They're giving up just under 4 points a game on average and they have 5 shut-outs on the year. No one has scored more than 14 points in a game against them.
Amanda will roll Alexander, make no mistake.

We'll be making the drive to Amanda to take in this game Sat. evening to support the Alexander team. I wish the Spartans the best of luck but, I gotta go with Amanda CC big in this one. Hey don't forget everybody said you couldn't beat N-Y also but you did, so prove me wrong again and I'll gladly eat crow.

I don't know much about Alexander..but schedule strength might be the reason that there wasn't many points scored..Not that I don't think they are pretty good on Defense...they are quick...but not any better than Wheelersburg from what I saw Friday...If Alexander can beat Nelsonville York....they can play with Amanda...especially now with the big back out...

What I would suggest is watch the 2 and 3 hole...close off the slants with your defensive ends...and guard against the pass when #88 comes into the game...if they go into the split back formation..watch the run through the 6 hole...that would be a nice start to stopping CC...Read my report from the game Friday..if you wish...I put in everything they did until the subs came in... viewtopic.php?f=1&t=66009

Make sure you scroll down to where I give my scouting report...it should tell you what you need...good luck..

AC rolls. When they have practice jerseys that don't have number just the words "Defense Wins Championships" they mean it. Alexander will be doing good to score in this game.

No contest, Amanda could lose half their starters and still win this game. The MSL Buckeye is three times the conference of the TVC in football and this will be proven next week. Everyone always talks about being rural, isolated, socioeconomically challenged, etc. but in the Buckeye division of the MSL Fairfield Union, Logan Elm and Hamilton Township don't even have a real town in their school district and Carroll, Ashville and Amanda proper are the size of Albany, Middleport , Glouster or Nelsonville so this tells me there is a different type and mentality of football played there. Just my thoughts :)

I will be also making the drive to Amanda (atownbigdog) ... But I am covering it so I need to get there a few minutes early and don't lave until I talk to both coaches ... but if you feel like hanging around the press box and don't mind leaving a minutes later, shoot me an e-mail this week sometime.

BTW ... Alex fans ... keep an eye on the Local Newspaper on Thursday and Friday and Saturday ... I believe two features and a game preview will be in their.

We did the same for Trimble last season and for NY (except I think they only had one feature during the week and a preview on game day) ... With the Spartans being the only team representing this area week 11 - there are some really good ideas floating around, which should make good news articles ... Usually we have at least two teams or so playing, but this year with only one IM sure the Spartans will garner a lot of attention from all media outlets and from the area communties.

You're thoughts couldnt be farther from the facts FOS. Did you take economics in College or high school? The socioeconomic make up of that area is vastly different from southeastern ohio. It doenst even compare. These communities are all suburbs and outlying areas of Columbus, Lancaster, Circleville, Chilicothe,ect. You want to compare this to Albany, Nelsonville, Glouster! lol Middleport! lol Wow. Even though these may be farming areas they are much more urban than our little towns here in SEO. If you want to put down this area just put it down, You will sound alot smarter than the rubbish you wrote here..... Good luck to the great big village of Albany in the playoffs :lol:

Wow what a tough draw for the Spartans!!!!

On the up-side, they are making there 1st ever playoff appearance in school history (Congrats on that).......... But the down-side...... AMANDA CLEARCREEK!!!

Amanda is probably THE most successful and accomplished team in the last 10 years in this area. I know they have had a couple down years, but I am sure this current team is fully tapping into their tradition of State Titles and deep runs into the playoffs.

Alex needs to be happy with earning a playoff birth, but not CONTENT. Play hard, and go down swinging. I would love to see them "shock the world", but I'm not betting the farm on it.

Amanda by a bunch.... Good luck Alex.... ;-)

Actually you are WRONG about AC. the have a very SMALL town where the school sits (Amanda) not much else. there are no other developed communities, Neighborhoods or anything around AC it is all farm commuinity and the hills of hocking county for their school.
Also they border LE schoolddistrict, TV SD, Berne Union,Bloom carrroll,Fairfield union and lacaster city. the school itself is no where close to any of these other school for other kids to want to transfer, in fact for the most part AC is "hated" by the other school disctricts around the area. because they are so good all the time and yet so much smaller than the rest. Nelsonville, Albany and Glouster is WAY BIGGER than Amanda and has a way bigger selection of kids than AC. in reality in a couple years people are looking for AC to go back down to DV.

I guess the OHSAA is picking on AC since they have NY as a middle of the road d5 school and Glouster a small d6 school. The projection with the bypass around lancaster is that Amanda will be d3 before long. WAY BIGGER. are you serious? Hating you because you are so good all the time. Did you read your post before you submitted? Drive through these communities you mention on here and tell me the socioeconomic make up is better down south as it is in your neck of the woods. Its not even close. The infrastucture doesnt even compare. They are just now trying to connect us down here with central ohio. See how long it takes you to drive to the nearest industry. I can tell you its over an hour any direction from my house.
