Phoebus is exactly where they need to be. Why should they be in 5A, because they're good and they can compete with some of the bigger schools????? They have the numbers to be in 3A - period. I've seen many 5A and 6A football games where offenses have struggled, its all relative. How much offense was needed for the Broncos last year to be world champs....
You have to give credit where credit is due. Phoebus defense has been extremely good so far. They have talent all over the place and swarm to the ball. They play a regular season schedule that features mostly higher populated schools. Blacksburg has been the road warriors of this years playoffs. Winning 3 straight on the road is no simple task. It can easily be argued that Beck is the fastest rb in the state. Blacksburg will have to keep the defense guessing. It should be a great game. Good luck to both
This should be a VERY interesting game! For Phoebus to be putting up the defensive numbers they have, says something about the team as a whole. Very impressive!
@HooaCav I had the chance to watch SR play last week. Great community support, great coaches/players and an overall class act. Congrats on a terrific season and good luck the rest of the playoffs.
I really appreciate that newleather! This is such an exciting time for us. To even be mentioned with some of the elite names of Va high school football is an honor.
WELP! I guess these "weak 3A playoffs" (as you stated on the 4A board) were too much for that lights-out defense.
Yup. Im eating crow!! But also, Its niave to think that Phoebus is the Phoebus of old....
