Rally in Death Valley

    I agree with your premise, but at the same time you give me the 22 Parade All Americans and that would be all I needed....well a good coach too, since I don't know what I'm doing....and that team would beat any team in the country.

    It's more about quality than quanity.

Who was doing the sports writing somebody from Steub Central ?

    Yes, there were a lot of technical mistakes, but the bottom line is that it was good publicity for Steubenville. And did you see Reno's picture?

    Wow, now we are stretching it a bit. If you ever get 22 Parade All Americans, I'll buy you a season pass for all the games. I think I've dried this subject up; on to the next.

    Cheers.

    This game was on foxsports pgh Monday night at midnight. I am not sure if it will be on again.

    Technically, they had 100 players listed as there were two #20s. More impressive was that there were zero freshman and three sophomores, with 97 Jrs. and Srs.

    I have never seen Iggy play live before. I am going to guess this is not one of their 10 best teams. They seemed to be getting beat at the point of attack, and they were missing mightily on their passing games. Even when they were open, often the ball did not arrive or when it did, it wasn't always caught. Many offenses would look bad against Bosco, not just Iggy.

    I wish I knew it was on . Id like to have seen it on tv. Iggy is still a strong team . They are just not as dominate as they usually are . The Bosco team had a real nice back . Steubenville and Bosco would have been a good game . It probably would have been low scoring .In my honest opinion . I want to see this event again next year . I hope Iggy is better if they represent Ohio next year or they bring down Another Ohio powerhouse .

    This is Iggy's weakest team in 25 years according to those I've talked to. 3-7 is a distinct possibility.
  • Thinthickbigred
    I say 6-4 or 5-5 at worst . They played the meat of their schedule. They are a proud program .3-7 are for quiters they wont quit
