Buckeyes “should” be healthier and get some key players back? OL should get a boost for sure. Bucks win

Bucks are starting to mend. Other good news, I talked with the new OLineman yesterday, he can play varsity starting with district. Sorry Pitt.

Buckeyes need to get healthy

Make it all game and with 6 seconds left and about to lose, all of a sudden, a “problem” with stadium lighting. Give me a break. Honestly, should have seen it coming, that is just how they operate down there.

What’s going on with Gilmer’s kicking game so far this year? Missed extra points, FG’s. They still have the All-State kicker from last year and their kicking games was supposed to be a strength. What gives?

Question. So I saw where the Sophomore OL who moved in was playing on JV last night, I’m assuming because of UIL rules? How many games will he need to play on JV until he moves to Varsity?

I didn’t watch or see the game, but Gilmer didn’t look good at all. I heard special teams was the reason? Gilmer apparently had several out, so not sure what to expect. The QB situation is this. Tennison doesn’t want to play QB this year, just defense. He has been injured along with others. With that being said, I think it will be a growing year, so give me Chapel Hill by about 3 scores.

That 2 point conversion was stopped by Gilmer’s front four consisting of 3 Sophomores and a Freshman!

True. Gilmer’s defense is young too! That DL will be killer next year!

This is the Gilmer’s HC’s 8th state championship game. His 4th title. Same for several other coaches on his staff. I think he knows what he’s doing.

5 was no stranger to big games. If I recall correctly, he blistered Gilmer last year in Rd 3. In this game, Surratt pretty much put the ball where it needed to be, and the receivers simply dropped the ball. Uncharacteristic of a team of that caliber.

Phhht! They also predicted this…

I agree with this. Just like Gilmer, Glen Rose deserves to be in this game. They don’t run a lot, but they can sling it! Buckeye secondary will have their hands full for sure. Look for Gilmer’s RB Henderson to have a huge game offensively.

Well versed. I was going off Maxpreps strength of schedule for both teams. Gilmer has definitely played the tougher schedule out of both teams. Take Maxpreps for what it’s worth, using computers for certain HS sports sometimes backfires. I do know Glen Rose has been playing great the last few weeks, and their passing game will definitely present a challenge. Gilmer’s secondary will definitely need to step it up this week. With that being said, I think Gilmer’s speed in the open field will be the difference and they pull away late.
