[TRENCHFOOT]

Ironton.

[wobycat]

Does anyone know what wellston brings to the game? I know what ironton has. What kind of offense and defense do they run? Who’s their top players?

Cat...….the golden rockets will be coming down 93 S with a few weapons that could cause the fighting tigers some minimal issues....however em fighting tigers allow the golden rockets to hang around and be in the game they could cause some issues that Ironton doesn't want to have deal with in week 1 of the post season...Wellston has a nice QB in RJ Kemp that can both run and throw the pigskin...…he has a nice tall athletic WR in Hunter Smith,,,,,,Hunters dad was quite the FB/LB for Wellston way back when...….....the dad sure was a mighty fine fine football player and the apple didn't fall far from the tree.........in the backfield they have a combo of a thunder/lighting type duo.....the Garvin kid who plays the thunder part and plays it quite well.....kid has good size decent speed and runs the ball with authority downhill.....Wellston has true playmaker in their stud athlete Ryan Molihan…..he is the son of former Wellston standout athlete Nathan Molihan…..give the younger of the two Molihans the ball and he is capable of making something huge out of nothing.....kids a helluva athlete...

Thanks for the reply. I’ve seen just a few clips on wellston and it’s going to be a tough task for them. Ironton looks to be a step faster and probably bigger.

Ironton is on a different level then this Wellston team.

[Mavrick2016]

Ironton running clock 49-0

[YOU'RE TIGER BAIT]

I'm just going to be satisfied with 1 more point than the rockets if the tigers do win. that's all that matters to me right now.

[MrFirstTake]

Ironton running clock 49-0

I ageee with the running clock but I feel like wellston might score late hopefully they do get a shutout tho

[MrFirstTake]

I feel like wellston will come out hot because it’s there first playoff game in a over 10 years but I feel like once that initial adrenaline wears off and the tigers get physical with them it starts to get out of hand

[mattash]

Will wellston bring s big crowd?

[hsfbfan]

Will wellston bring s big crowd?

Hopefully, but probably not since it will be very cold and everyone thinks it will be a slaughter. Being that it is Wellstons 1st playoff game since 06 though may help.

[Raider6309]

Will wellston bring s big crowd?

There will be more Kentucky plates than Ohio plates in the parking lot

[MrFirstTake]

Hopefully wellston brings everyone out to the tank it’s a great environment to be in during playoffs

[ohbuckeye2]

Good luck Fighting Tigers.....

[2Time]

Wellston typically travels pretty well. I could see them filling up the away stands if they can bare the cold.

my friend. we cannot under estimate them. as you say. playoff game, festive atmosphere. the tigers need to be ready for trickery as well. because they may not be quite as physical as the fighting tigers are. but then again, they may be.
I know nothing about them.

[YOU'RE TIGER BAIT]

their biggest win for my thoughts is a 7-3 Nelsonville York team who is always tough. they lost to the toughest 3 games on their schedule.
