Waverly is definitely equivalent of going over into Kentucky or Lawrence county . The referees in pike county definitely call the game differently . I’ve not only heard this from west fans but from the perspective of a lot of other SOC fans.
Waverly 35 West 19

West didn’t need to pass with the push up front from the Big Uglies. West runningsbacks weren’t getting touched until 5 yards.Proud_Pirate63 wrote: ↑Mon Oct 08, 2018 8:44 pmI think West only attempted 3 passes the entire Minford game. They didn’t need to pass. West will really shorten this game with long, time consuming drives that will take them to victory.MasterOfNone wrote: ↑Mon Oct 08, 2018 12:32 pm I will be curious to see how the Tigers respond after Friday. The burg game was ugly. They rely on a lot of younger guys so hopefully they don't hang their heads after that loss. Everything that could have went wrong for the Tigers against burg did. I honestly don't think they could have played any worse, they are much better than how they played last Friday IMO. But a good bit of that credit goes to burg, they are a really good team and showed up to play. I think if Shoemaker doesn't fumble it on the first play, the game goes a little differently. Still don't think the Tigers would have won, but it wouldn't have been such a beating.
But it's time to turn the page and look forward to Week 8. I think this game could go either way. If I am West I am pounding the ball all night long. Waverly has shown no real answer for the run game all year. They do make adjustments throughout the game tho, such as bringing Snodgrass in to help on D against Valley and they started playing 4 D-Lineman in the second half against burg. If West wants to win, that's how they will do it. If I'm Waverly, I would load that box up with 8 or 9 and dare them to throw it. The Tigers have very good DBs, and I would trust them one on one with whoever West puts out there. Idk if what I was looking at was accurate, but one of the box scores I saw for the West/Minford game was that West only had 1 yard passing? If so, that's something you don't see much anymore lol. But Waverly has the ability to score in bunches and in a hurry. They have a ton of speed in all positions and can beat you in many different ways. I see this one being a close, high scoring affair. On a side note, how is West's special teams? That could be a factor as well. Waverly has been very good in that aspect of the game all year. Shoemaker has the ability to take the distance every time he is given an opportunity to return a kick. Just something to keep an eye on.
Re: Week 8 West (6-1) at Waverly (6-1)
U put 8-9 in box when west passes, I’ve watched this year is down the line with one man to beat!! Haven’t seen west in 3 games go downfield much just down the line of scrimmageWest Side Pride wrote: ↑Mon Oct 08, 2018 9:32 pmMasterOfNone wrote: ↑Mon Oct 08, 2018 12:32 pm I will be curious to see how the Tigers respond after Friday.

"If I was Waverly I'd put 8 or 9 in the box" That's prolly why your in the stands, sorry I'm not trying to be smart but I'd say Waverly's staff is
smarter than that. You would get screened to death.

Re: Week 8 West (6-1) at Waverly (6-1)
What is West like on D? Will they pin their ears back and try to get to the QB or play more coverage? Man or Zone? What about against the run?
Just haven't heard much about that side of the ball.

West is very physical up front. Against Minford they pinned their ears back and went after the QB. Especially after Minford's starting RB went down with a knee injury. Minford's O line did however do a good job of keeping their QB upright but there were MANY missed passing opportunities.MasterOfNone wrote: ↑Wed Oct 10, 2018 8:47 am What is West like on D?

West isnt extremely quick up front, but they play with a mean streak and are physical. Tough to run between the tackles against them. If Waverly is going to move the ball, they need to be able to seal off the end and take it wide or have a big night throwing the ball on West.

I believe in the last 10 years. Only thing about playing up there is the help from the officials, because the game could be close for the first half. We'll
have to see what happens to that "speed" when it gets hit hard play after play after play.

No Pike County refs that I know of.

Re: Week 8 West (6-1) at Waverly (6-1)
Thanks! 1 loss going back to 2008. That's why Vegas has 1/2 points cause a win is a win. Doesn't matter the score Greydude.... I believe Waverly,
as possibly even the better team will find a way to loose. More than likely they'll quit as I've seen several times in the past and West will not.
Re: Week 8 West (6-1) at Waverly (6-1)
Hard to make a legitimate case that Waverly has quit lately against West. At least not in the last 6 games these two teams have played. Waverly won 19-6 two years ago. West last five wins against Waverly have been by 4 points, 3 points, 1 point, 6 points and 1 point.
Don't know what will transpire this Friday but you won't see any quit in this group of Tigers. A relatively young group but a gritty tough group for sure. I like our chances. Go Tigers!

Re: Week 8 West (6-1) at Waverly (6-1)
I believe I'm gonna make another trip back up 23 to take this game in. I do think it will be a very good football game. I just think Waverly will win this game at home and possibly by 2 scores. Minford ran for 100 and threw for 150 vs West. I think Waverly's offense is better than Minford's this year. But I also think Minford's defense is better than Waverly's lol. And West ran for like 300 vs Minford. So all in all , I have no idea , but sticking with Waverly by 2 scores and hope to enjoy another good HS football game! Good Luck to both teams.

Temperatures could be down to the mid 40's by the 4th quarter. Time to break out the union suit and get the hot chocolate going. Football weather is here

No mosquito bites or insect repellent and nice chill in the air and a cup of hot chocolate. I will take that over temps in the 70's and a Gatorade every week.
Hoping for an injury free, good football game.

Re: Week 8 West (6-1) at Waverly (6-1)
I think the early part of the game will be the most important for the Tigers. They just need to prove to themselves, that they are a good football team, and are capable of playing like they have all year. If they can gets some stops on defense, and have a little success on offense, that confidence will return. I doubt if very few people are giving the Tigers very much of a chance to win this game. If the score is close at Half, I'll give the Tigers a great chance to win the game. Lets hope for an injury free game for both teams.
