Start scheduled for 12.Is this game at 4:30
I heard more than one guru say that the Heritage vs SR game was the state championship game.
But i recall last year when most thought SR would beat Blacksburg.
The Phoebus fans said the same thing last year against Blacksburg..Be careful.Heritage will win this game. The best back in the state is going to rip through Hopewell. 300+ yards... +14 point win. State championship. I've been telling you guys all year.
I am sure they said that a couple weeks ago too!The Phoebus fans said the same thing last year against Blacksburg..Be careful.
So true HR6... I don't know that anyone other than Blacksburg fans really gave them a shot in that game but they surprised.
If someone told you when Hopewell was 6-4 having dropped their last three regular season games that they would be playing this Saturday, most would have said no way. If not for a touchdown in the closing seconds of the game Saturday, Hopewell would have allowed 7 or fewer against 3 straight in the playoffs; Phoebus 6, York 6 and James Monroe 14(2nd td came with 34.5 left in the game).
itaHeritage is too fast and strong for Hopewell. I just can't see Hopewell standing a chance in this game. Hopewell is too young in some critical positions and heritage is going to expose them. SR/Heritage in my opinion should have been the state championship game. Not hating on the east just stating facts.

@OCBoy on another thread you mentioned that Heritage was going to crush Hopewell. You don't think this is going to be a game? I heard they scrimmaged this year already and it was a close one.
Hopewell has played a hard schedule for a 3A team.
Heritage lost a close one to Glass but outside of that they haven't seen the level of comp that Hopewell has seen.
Now I am leaning towards Heritage to win the game bc I think number 11 is out of this world good.
Hopewell has a very good back and QB and a few other good skill players as well. Just curious why you are so confident Heritage is going to blow them out.[/QUOTE
First let me say that I am not a Heritage fan so my opinion is unbiased. Now, I'm not discrediting Hopwell but, I disagree that Heritage hasn't seen the competition that Hopewell has. Heritage gave 2X soon to be 3X defending 2A champ, Appomattox their only loss of the season, plus they played in a district that put 7 of 8 teams in the playoffs. I have seen Glass, Dinwiddie, and Dale and I believe that Glass is just as good maybe better than both. I haven't seen Meadowbrook play so I can't speak for them but, to say that Heritage hasn't played the level of competition that Hopewell has simply isn't accurate.
I say all that to say that, Heritage should win but I'm not sure by how much. It could be a blowout in Heritage's favor or it could be a close game. We'll find out soon.
Not sure if any of those teams they held to a TD recently are any good though. I think Pheobus is decent. They were undefeated but the Peninsula district was the weakest I have ever seen. James Monroe and York IDK.
Now Heritage damn near took down Glass. The question is how is Glass in comparison to Dinwiddie / Thomas Dale etc. - Hopewell didn't do too well against those.
I think Heritage is the favorite but I think Hopewell will battle pretty good. I don't see a blowout here. I think it will be a close game.

I guess if Hopewell win hermitage fans would commit suicide.First let me say that I am not a Heritage fan so my opinion is unbiased.

I do not think that Heritage could beat Dale or Dinwiddie but I do think they would beat Meadowbrook and IC Norcom... certainly wasn't suggesting that Heritage played a week Schedule. I just think if they swapped schedules Heritage IMO would have 2 losses. However that is just my humble opinion and far from factual. I think Hopewell would have probably had 2-3 losses if they played Heritages schedule
The difficulty level of the schedules is certainly debatable either way.
I just don't think it is going to be a blowout. That is all I am saying. The rest is just stuff for us to debate to kill time before kick off.
I do believe that Elijah Davis is the best back in the state and Heritage is the favorite.
I think that is the argument most are making... Either team could win but so many seem to think it is going to be a Heritage decisive or blowout win and I just don't think that will be the case. As you say, we will find out soon enough, just a few more days.
