Ironton has won 2 of last 3.
Burg defeated Ironton convincingly in last seasons regional playoff matchup after Ironton had defeated them convincingly week one.
Ironton loaded at the skill positions with multiple D1 kids.
For the 1st time in at least 3 matchups Burg will enjoy the advantage of experience at the los.
Will QB1 be healthy and ready to go week 1 for Tigers?
Revenge?
Redemption?
Or does Burg put on an exclamation point and beat Ironton in huge back to back games?
This might be the biggest, most hyped and anticipated matchup ever in this series.
I may be way off base here… but with all of these hyped players for ironton, is there any merit to the idea that maybe these players will worry more about showing out personally then being a team player? Or pressure on Ironton staff to put the ball into so many sets of hands so as to appease those watching? Not saying there is, just a thought.
It seems to this layman that burg is more system oriented, rather than keying in on having 1 or 2 statistical monsters. Burg attacks with depth and the kids all seem to buy into it and are ok with 5 or 6 kids getting 300-500 yards.
It’ll be the same as last year in this regard. Ironton will have the clear advantage on the field. Wheelersburg has the clear advantage in coaching. Which one will win out ? Ironton should win by 3-4 scores. But, I think they’ll win a tight game.
I don’t think Ironton can hang with the Burg this year. Burg has too much firepower and little ole Ironton is gonna struggle matching up with all of Burgs athletes. Let’s just hope Ironton can keep it close.
Ironton by 2 scores in this one 28-14 Ironton is stacked at RB and WR QB 1 has to stay healthy’
As for the O-line experience may be missing but they are still huge and quick.
Should be a great game and hopefully both teams plays’ well and come out injury free.
