Might as well get this one started a little early. Rivalry game so you know both teams will be ready to go. My guess is Warren wins by a couple of scores after watching MHS/Cambridge tonight, but I hope I’m wrong. Thoughts? Predictions?
Don’t see Marietta being able to do much offensively. Their offense is run heavy like VC and we had some success against them defensively. Warren’s non-league schedule overall has been stronger as well. I’d say the couple score prediction is pretty accurate. That said, I think we’ve turned the corner for a while against Marietta.
Agreed. Marietta just doesn’t have the playmakers this year. The only success we have had offensively came on the ground against teams we were able to bully (Athens, Ripley, team from DC). Just don’t see us being able to do that as effectively against Warren. Also think Warren will be able to put up some points on our defense.
Marietta is very young as well. I believe nearly half of our starters are either Freshmen or Sophomores. From what I’ve heard, current eighth graders have a chance to be pretty special, so I’d say the future is bright for Marietta as well. Should be some good matchups between these two in the coming years.
In these times when kids really need leadership, Marietta is fortunate to have Coach Schoub. The schedule Marietta has is a mixture of impossible and ok, but our young kids have been beat up by the tough tough teams.
Excited for this game!!! Hoping its a good crowd and stands get packed for this game!! We gotta come out playing turnover free football!! Whoever wins turnover battle will win this game in my honest opinion. As Always GO BLUE!!!
One year ago today the Warriors took down John Glenn in a double OT classic!! Gives me chills to this day thinking about that game. MY OH MY what a battle it was. Those boys and that team will never be forgotten by me as long as I live, and I might have cried that night in the stands. They gave this ole boy a memory to last a lifetime!! GO BLUE!!
If warren wins it probably clinches a playoff spot for the warriors. Would be good for this team to get another week of practice and a playoff experience for these boys.
