Clintwood vs Galax, State Championship Predictions

**Biggin** · December 8th, 2011, 09:32 PM

A true "sports analyst" would use proper punctuation (hell punctuation period) and not misspell seventy thousand words.

Its okay, we know you are a Galax fan getting on here talking shit. If you had read the thread, most people on here were predicting a very tight game or even a Galax win.

Reading comprehension FTL

Actually all these post show Galax losing, and the sports analyst ???? made a great comment that no one has acknowledged and that is Grayson using speed beat Clintwood 61-6 and Galax did beat Grayson 21-6 on what coach Dixon called one of their worst games of the season. Not bad beating the previously ranked #1 team on a bad night. I understand that teams have bad games but 61-6 proves that speed is their worst enemy. And that is true about D-1 scouts, 6'4 Deon George wide receiver is being recruited by top ACC schools. The running back and the 6'6 defensive end have small D-1 schools like JMU and Emory scouting them. I love the fact that nearly everyone is downing Galax.

You want an acknowledgment, Ok. The first 4 weeks of the season Clintwood was garbage. They had 1 returning OL and the line play early was terrible. They also couldn't hold onto the ball. Add into that Meade (RB) broke his leg in game one and was playing 2 weeks later, plus Dotson (fb) was gimpy, and having 7 fumbles in the first half is the reason for the game/score. It had nothing to do with speed. Other than Rodriguez I didn't see anyone that was "fast". It was an avalanche of turnovers that came in about a 8-10 minute span that put a close game into the cooler before halftime. They couldn't even get the center/qb exchange correct that night.

I have to agree with you on this big time. At the begining of the season Clintwood wasnt what they are now. As for sports analyst go, how about all the teams that win championships who had weak first halfs of the season? That is not a rare occurance. Alot of teams loose early on and end up winning championships. Galax is good and rightfully deserve to be where they are but so does the Green Wave. Galax has won and done it very handily against some real good opponents but what about Clintwood? Nobody gave them a chance to beat a very good George Wythe team. GW was supposed to be playing this game not Clintwood. Then last week with Sussex Central everybody was saying how the Tigers won 88 to 8 and was going to put one on Clintwood just like that. "No way a team who isnt fast can handle Sussex" was the general thought last week but Clintwood proved them wrong. This week not much has changed, Galax is the top team and Clintwood is the underdog except here on this forum. Well this is Clintwood's district forum so what do ya expect? Galax is good and they have won games that proves that point but so is clintwood. I understand that Galax has a fast tall receiver that can burn Dbacks but can the line give the Qb time to get the ball to him over and over or will Clintwoods D line be in the backfeild more than they are used to?
As far as D1 scouts coming to the Galax games all season, thats awesome! Im glad they have them coming to see their kids. That dont mean as much as you think seeing that their head coach is a former NFL player. Im sure he knows how to get intouch with these guys and get em out there. Their has been alot of talent down here in Wise co that went overlooked because the coaches wouldnt help them out. Not to mention that Powell Valley have three to four times the scouts come to there games AFTER Thomas and Julius went to college. That dont mean much about them beating Clintwood. Clintwood has the biggest backfeild in the region and the most heart of any team I have seen this season. Sussex had em 8 to 0 and was handling the game pretty good but the Wave pressed on and won 17-8. Give the wave some credit folks they gothere by one hard road just like Galax has.

LOL 2 more FACTS for you GW and Sussex are BOTH FASTER than Galax.......CW will be the fastest team Galax has seen in the playoffs.

(If CW plays to the same level they did vs Grayson than they will lose.........IF Galax plays at the same level they did vs Glenvar than they will lose)

Hey musiqdestiny( sp)! Im a sports Analyst ...Bigggin is a sports analyst, so is Counts, Ironlung, R13, Rock, and the rest of the regulars. This is a sports forum..thats what you do on here. You however do not impress me!! Do you seriously think we would pick against Clintwood? One because we want to see them win and two they are from this area. Yeah, we are a little biased...so what, but we all gave intelligent comments why we think Clintwood would win.....any intelligent person that knows sports believes this will be a close game and only a couple have said blowouts which for me I do not think will happen. Just go on back to your little forum in central va, do not get so up tight redneck on us down here, enjoy the game Saturday, be safe driving home and continued succes in your sports analogies of high school teams! Love ya!!

Dang I wish Emory would have told me they were D1 on at least one the recruiting trips I made up there, I probly would have taken their offer and went there.
