Nope......it's quite apparent that the Glimmer is not up to standards this season. It happens.......their schedule is not that overbearing.......they just have not performed as in years past so far. Cuero is having trouble too, but their best player at RB is out maybe for the entire season.......a D1 recruit at RB........so they have an excuse. Maybe by the time the playoffs get here Glimmer will be a much better team overall......or beat up with key injuries. Gilmer won’t be ranked come Mon. The reality is 4A D2 is not as solid as they have been in years past. 4A D1 is solid across the board. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarthDawg77 Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 After last evening’s outing, I fear Newton will rub a heaping helping of salt into Gilmer’s open wounds...59-24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He would have made but a little difference last night. Carthage is really good and Gilmer is just bad in all phases of the game right now. Also, something I haven't seen anyone else mention is, Gilmer is NOT running the QB, AT ALL, this year. Our QB ran the ball exactly 1 time last night, and that was on a busted play. Hurt #6 can run. Years past, we could reliably count on the QB picking up good rushing yards on every series of downs. This year, it's 3-and-out, over and over and over again, with no QB threat to run. Defenses are feasting on the somewhat bland Gilmer offense this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the way the Defense is playing, it would seem to make sense to go with the Senior. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldbuckeye#62 Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 Gilmer once again showed there weakness that the defense is lousy but I think they made up for it that they couldnt run the ball either. So with a very weak defense and a tiny bit of offense i predict newton by how ever much they would like to score. with out 35 coaches scratching there heads we lose.

I was one of the main ones saying Newton couldn’t matchup with Gilmer for 4 quarters. I think I might have to eat some crow after this one.

Wow regardless of record I have been so used to seeing the army of buckeyes come to support their young men. Think had this game been a week or two ago there would be more fans there?

From Gilmer fans perspective, the Soph. is more mobile and maybe more accurate passer, but he was throwing behind and over our receivers last night, probably due to being rushed by the Dogs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sbk5280 Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 I'll be heading to Newton to support the Bux. I'm there every week rain or shine don't care. We are not the same caliber team this year, but we will show up. Just need to learn from our mistakes and make adjustments. Carthage was just out of our league this year no doubt. Good team that should go far. Still looking forward to playing Newton. I just hope everyone shows up to play. 2 back to back losses can play a big mental game in your head for sure. Just have to move forward with this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For those who have never played against or seen the Purple Beast play, they don't know that Newton brings the house every defensive play. It works because they have the secondary that is skilled and fast enough to handle man to man. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pax Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 It's a young season, but so far Gilmer has given teams their average game or better. Newton's average game is 49-7 so this very well could get ugly. Atlanta averages 21 ppg; Gilmer gave up 41 to them. Van averages 35 ppg; Gilmer gave up 41 to them. Paris averages 25.5 ppg; Gilmer gave up 27 to them. Carthage averages 46 ppg; Gilmer gave up 66 to them. Newton averages 49.3 ppg...... Newton is also holding teams that average 23 ppg to just 7. I'm gonna say Newton 49-63 to Gilmer 0-14. My prediction is 63-14 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
