Thoughts on this First ever meeting between these two

[california kid]

two very physical teams playing each other .... should be a good one

[YOU'RE TIGER BAIT]

all i can say is we better do a better job tackling and in the secondary. a good passing team will pick us apart if we don't tighten it up. but i'll say this ironton definately has the potential tp put points up in a hurry.
what is johnson central's nickname and record, seating capacity , etc.

Is this the team that Burg played a couple of years ago? If so, they were pretty good if I remember correctly!

[fuzzhead]

They're the Eagles.

Ironton's next 2 opponents (Watterson & Hartley) will be squaring off this Friday.

I'm trying to get out of work to make it to a game this week. I haven't decided between this game or the Pick North/Pick Central game. If I make it to Hartley/Watterson, I'll try to get some info out... maybe a few other Central Ohio posters could help out with some 'advanced scouting' , if I am unable to attend!!

Really?? I thought we had played them before. They're not all that far from Belfry - I thought we played both in the past.
My sister now teaches there - but I haven't talked to her recently.

Ironton remains unbeaten this week.

AXE, YOU KNOW WHAT HAPPENS WHEN FALCONS PLAY WITH FIGHTING TIGERS

WELL, IT HAIN'T PURTY.

[maniac66]

Looking for a big win here Ironton 33-20 the tigers are just to much to handle for this team here

[Vision Quest]

With both teams having penchant for the running game, I see a quick, smash-em-up game.

I think they have played jr High games before i dont think they have played varsity against each other i dont think.

If Johnson Central defense is anything like Ironton defense, it will be a high scoring game. Best of luck Ironton.
