I just got 6 redirect ads in a row in an effort to post that I’m still getting them.

We’re 13-1 at home in the first round. Lost to Nashville Christian in 1998.

Don’t forget it’s at Waynesboro in November. The field will be muddy regardless. It holds water like a duck pond.

I like the Mt. Pleasant coach and wouldn’t mind if he moved back to WC when our coaches decide to hang it up, but I distinctly remember him complaining about the Z-plan a few years back in the newspaper. He, like a lot of coaches, didn’t like not knowing who they were going to play or where they might have to go in the playoffs. But guess what? A 7-3 team didn’t get left out of the playoffs in the Z-plan. This is the reason why the Z-plan was introduced to begin with. We had it, but almost everyone complained so much and so loudly, that it’s gone. Now the bottom line is, you finish 5th in your region you’re out of the playoffs. Clear, simple, easy.

They didn’t actually change the enrollment multiplier. It was just a coincidence that the enrollment of all the private schools around us increased to the point that they went D2 or 2A. Franklin Grace is a small, new private school. I’m pretty sure this is their first playoff game. QB is dual threat and a very good player. The best QB we’ve played this year outside of Huntingdon.

I agree, but I doubt we overlook them. Grace beat Mt. Pleasant when we couldn’t. A lot of people and newspapers will pick them to beat us at home so we ought to have a chip on our shoulder coming into Friday night.

Actually if Grace and Mt. Pleasant both lose and Richland wins it’s a 3-way tie for 4th, and Mt. Pleasant will get into the playoffs on the tiebreaker that way too. Honestly, those results Friday night are not that far-fetched. Lot of moving pieces in that region.

Glad to see we’re pulling up predictions from last spring....people have busted our chops over MtP games in the past. Good thing about the playoffs is that they ain’t no arguing about who beat who beat who when it’s all over.

Saw that WC won 40-14. How did the game go?

I know there's a lot of football left this year, but this week sure feels like a turning point game. Win this one and I think we finish at 7-3 and get a home playoff game, lose and I'm not sure we even make the playoffs at this point. I would have liked to see the team that played Loretto in the first half develop throughout the season.

Don't forget WC's TD that was called back on an unnecessary penalty. Turned out to be the difference in the game.

Yeah and I think WC won something like 6 of the 7 games between '97 and '03. It's a pretty streaky series, but it's evened out over the years.

This is the 60th meeting between the schools. Always been really competitive. MtP leads the series 32-26-1, but WC has won 7 of the last 9 games.

I think some teams need a loss to mentally toughen up, and I think it's for the best that those streaks are over... Can't really overreact because it's basically a tradition to play a terrible game between Weeks 2-4 . Our best teams usually pull out a win anyway, but we've had region championship teams that didn't. Even though we put up a lot of points the first few weeks, I dont think we've found our bread and butter on offense yet - mostly because of the wave of injuries. Bye week, followed by an old rival that's playing well couldn't come at a better time.

Pretty sure it was 20-14 final. WC threw an INT to end the game.
