Yes, maybe them. Meadowbrook has more than double the enrollment, so it’s easier for them to reload - if the new coach can get the players to come out.
Nelsonville will be good. Meadowbrook is a lot bigger. Wheeling Central is like a good AAA team disguised as Single A. Is Magnolia supposed to be good this year?
The line was young last year, but improved leaps and bounds. They should be really good up front in 2019. They didn’t lose a lot, but the players they lost were excellent.
Week 1 - Belpre (W /42-24)
Week 2 - Nelsonville-York (W / 30-14)
Week 3- @Waterford (W 28- 24)
Week 4- @Meadowbrook (W / 28 -10)
Week 5- @Monroe Central( W by as much as they want)
Week 6- Wheeling Central ( L 14- 0)
Week 7- @Barnesville ( W 42 -20)
Week 8- Caldwell (W 35 - 7)
Week 9- @ Shenandoah ( W 42 -7)
Week 10- @ Magnolia ( hard one to predict now, L 14-10)
They might finish 8-2 but they won’t allow that many points. They return 8 on defense. No way Belpre scores 24 on them. Meadowbrook game will be extremely tough.
I would not sleep on belpre offense , but I agree ff d is gonna be amazing. It’s gonna be hard to score against Meadowbrook butttttt ff always pulls stupid stuff out of their butts to make close games look bigger. So 14-10 mid fourth, 28-10 final that’s how I made that prediction. I think belpre will put up points first half and get shut down hard second half once ff knocks off the rust. Fort Frye is gonna take a beating from belpre then NY then Waterford in a row. Then have to play Meadowbrook. I hope the players take care of themselves.
Assuming you meant belpre WILL struggle to score ( because you are a ff fan) I’d say I think belpre is much improved and may score let’s say one to two touchdowns. I’m just giving them the first game benefit of the doubt. But in all honesty probably will be a shut out.
