Next thing you'll tell us is that the Chiefs don't get help from the refs.
yeah I know it's the Ref's fault The Bengals player hit Mahomes 2 feet out of bounds last year. it's also The Chiefs Fault Likely couldn't get his toe down and throw in yesterday, The refs caused The Raiders to snap the ball with The QB clueless because the coaches didn't get a play called before the mic cutoff lol
You hit the nail on the head. After FH had beaten Alco twice in a row and some were getting a little cocky I thought it was only fair to point out after BW FH hadn't really had any competition so it was hard to really say how much they had improved. Since then they have played three road games two of which were against teams that know FH and have beaten FH and are not intimidated or in awe of the Wing-T. Since Northern lost to Alco they have beaten Southern twice, a very banged up MR team, a Boonesboro team which is usually a pretty solid team, and SEED. Now aside from the outlier, Boonesboro, they haven't beaten anybody. FH has now been battle tested and above all you can't ignore FH beat them 42-7 when they last faced off. I love a good Cinderella story but if FH doesn't take this for granted, keeps the penalties and the turnovers to a minimum, and can use some common sense when it's fourth down in your territory...it shouldn't be close.
For what it's worth, BW is in the VA state 5A semis. FH is much more battle tested than Northern. Agree with your conclusions about next week.
I think it’s just neat for Western MD to represent in the finals again.
Is this a hint that Sherando may be on the schedule next year, along with Dunbar and Bridgeport (WV board confirmation that Bridgeport and Fort Hill have agreed to play in 2025)?
No, not to my knowledge. Outside of Virginia Week 1 and Week 2, Sherando is locked into district play every week these days.
FH by whatever Alkire wants to win by. It's not Alkire's style to embarrass teams by running up the score. Just a message to the Sentinel players. Northern may be in Awe of your program, and your successes, but they will not bow down, nor lay down for you. Prepare for them with respect.
Interesting - can you provide how many players from each who played that day will be playing Saturday?
I am not sure. I remember it because that was the first year my nephew played in the CAYFL on the Miners.
