Any Thoughts? I wanted to ask Fairlawn what you think after seeing Radford play both teams?
Anyone feel free to chime in..

Gretna @ Glenvar Thoughts?

I wish VHSL would change playoff format. Go back to format used in 2011. Current format results in too many rematches in playoffs from regular season, and playing mostly the same teams in playoffs every season.
As for Gretna vs Glenvar, it will be a battle of the 2 best QBs in Class 2. Whoever plays best pass defense should win.

I think Glenvar is about 10 to 13 pts better than Gretna if they play 10 times. But, it's going to be cold and that could hinder Glenvars passing gsme just a touch, and that could be what makes it close. Key for Gretna is not giving up huge passing plays and getting a lead. If they do this, they have a shot to win. If Glenvar gets rolling on offense and their offense is very rhythm based, Glenvar will win. I think it's a close game. Gretna defense is really good and that will give them a chance if they can stay even up until the fourth qtr.

2 best QBs in class 2 is a highly questionable statement . There were 2 VHSL record setters in region D this year.

You beat me to it! They may be the two best left in the playoffs but I don’t think I can get on board with two best in Class 2A.
Yes, a format change! I hate all these regular season rematches! I can’t say I necessarily agree with the two best QBs in Class 2, maybe two best left in playoffs.
Gretna’s Defense was stellar last night. This is exactly why they brought Brian Farrow from EC Glass to coach the defense. He was locked in last night.
I liked Gretna’s wrinkles on offense, but they made it way too complicated in the 2nd half. The team is used to no huddle and slowed the pace down and the offense definitely looked confused last night after having good momentum for the first half.
This matchup is a rematch of last years second round game where Gretna got stopped on the 1 as time ran out. If Gretna can’t get in the backfield to give Dawyot less time in the pocket. It could be a long night.

I dint see Gretna doing much with Glenvar this year. Gretna has 1 win against a winning team and that was last night against Radford and they barely squeaked by. I say Glenvar wins this fairly easily.
Enjoyed game last night loved the Gretna fans they were spot on and hilarious. 1st time I've ever seen a coach yell shut up and chill to fans lol Defense was great...offense was terrible play calls stunk had 12 or 10 men on the field multiple times ran one play with 10 men and nobody noticed in 4th qtr. Had to burn numerous timeouts bc plays weren't getting in quick enough. I agree with the fans I heard saying throw the new playbook in trash and go back to running what works. They didn't let there QB throw the ball much at all. If they don't get offense under control Glenvar will kill them. Hope Gretna wins due to there hilarious and very truthful fan base ...haven't enjoyed a game that much in awhile
Yea I just finished watching the Radford Gretna game, I feel disappointed for Radford myself. If Gretna gives Glenvar 1/3rd of the opportunities they gave Radford I think Glenvar capitalizes and wins.
Personally, I didn’t see anything from Gretnas quarterback that would put him in the same class as Glenvars QB. I mean not even close if I’m honest. Radford’s young yes, but there were no adjustments made offensively and no imagination that I expected to see in those final drives.
However,, that officiating crew turned the tide of the game with a number of calls. That touchdown in the corner at the end of the game would’ve been huge. It was very similar to when we played at Radford this year. The officials kept throwing flags over and over and over again. I honestly hope that crew has nothing to do with the championship game. LOL
Personally I would say Glenvars 2-3 TDs better than Gretna without any huge breaks/TOs etc. I would like to see a knockdown drag out contest that goes down to the wire but only time will tell. Just from watching their last couple games I’m not seeing it. Excited for next Friday night tho!
