The best team on carpet will win-PV! Don't get me wrong Gate City is the hottest team in Region D right now, but put PV's players on the carpet and look out.
Yeah we're dead

Is it shag or pile?
certainly not Bermuda-has GC played on UVA-Wise's shag or pile yet. Vikes have ask Clintwood.
They hadn't played on JMU's before either before 03.
There's now way you are comparing the 07 Devils with the 03 Devils now are ya?
Not at all. You play where you play, and the 03 team had never played on turf either. While turf does help a fast team, I think it is slightly over rated. Doesn't it make sense that a slower player will also be faster on turf than grass?
I don't think it helps speed so much as it helps teams/players that like to make sharp plants and start and stop quickly
True that.

No, a slow player is a slow player. I am proof of that. LOL

I'm slow too, but may be less slow on turf [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/grin.gif[/img]
Doesn't it also make sense that a fast player will be even faster-it's all relative. This game will come down to execution (what a cliche), but cliches are warranted since they are true. Does PV put 9 or 10 in the box and make GC beat them throug the air? Can GC pressure PV's offense by making Cedric make decisions while under a constant bombardment of blitzes? Tomorrow will tell, but if it turns into a track meet were special teams set up each team's philosophy of playcalling-give the edge to PV. If GC can contain PV's speed in the kicking game and do a good job of covering kicks thus making PV go the distance of the field then they will be right in there.
Don't kid yourself, true astro-turf is not over rated-watch Burton play on that stuff and tell me they don't look like a different TEAM. I just believe that PV has too much team speed for GC, that is if their coaches scheme GC and make them one dimensional.
Speed kills and TEAM speed is a holocaust.

What was I supposed to see from Burton? Sounds like they were a losing team on the turf. Speed got killed today.
You were suppose to see a team execute it's jet offense, but apparently Clintwood had a lot to do with that not happening. As a GC fan, you know that Norton's O line struggled this year, but Norton has always played well on UVA-Wise's carpet-heck they have won as many games there as anybody. Up until this year that would include UVA Wise itself lol. I don't believe I was the only one who thought Norton would come away with their 5th straight regional championship winning 3 out of the 4 on the turf. If no one else will say it then I will "I was wrong" congratulations to the Greenwave. Two more and we can stop hearing about how State Championships can't come back to SWVA because of realignments. If GC beats PV then I will have to say that "I'm wrong" again, but I'll wait until after the game before eating that crow. [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/wink.gif[/img]
Anybody got any seasoning this crow is awful [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/blush.gif[/img]. Congrats to GC and Clintwood they certainly proved me wrong.
