  Don't jinx us now the last 2 weeks with the weather. How many years in a row has it rained wooster week.
• RedRider1

  

  ...and it's always made worse by Wooster's field being a craphole after 10 weeks of all levels of football and soccer.

  Yes...that's the goal tonight....get the win...but let's do it with some crisp execution.

  Looks like the big games in the region are Ashland-CF, Huron-Oak Harbor(Must win for Huron), then tomorrow ELyria Catholic takes on Cleveland Central Catholic.
• RedRider1

  

  Bucyrus-Ontario...both 5-2...winner stays alive, loser is probably done. A win by Bucyrus may bump them into the top 8.
  
  Still just 1.2 points separating 7th and 12th place.
  
  JOeEitel has been updating late Sunday night.....don't know if I can wait that long this week....may have to do some actual projections myself....not just guessing.
• OQB

  

  I think Joe Eitel comes out with his "playoff status" too after this week is played. It may take him a little bit longer to get the results out.....We're counting on you RR1 haha

  Hey boys.... good luck tonight and stay healthy for next week. I decided to keep my mouth shut this week so I stay out of trouble in the valley.... well, stay out of trouble for the most part!
• 5knots

  

  You and yours stay healthy as well. Pulling for the Colts though, sorry.
• OQB

  

  Orrville on top at half, 21-14.

  28-14 Orrville on top in the 4th.

  Well...um....um....a win is a win. Lots of flags, both sides this time. I imagine the Colts will be talking about a 50 or so point victory next week. The JV game crowd is starting to rival the varsity.
• OQB

  

  Very disapointing turnout tonight for the game, and it's becoming an every week thing.......
  
  Bright spots tonight were Lichti's passing, and Turner's 3 TD night. That is what I have been expecting out of Turner every week he is such a game changer.
  
  Penalties, and bad tackling....we play like that next week we will be disapointed.

  Man, the way the game started out, I just sat there stunned. I decided to go for a walk to the outstanding restroom facility in order to re-live the old days at Cleveland Municipal Stadium, ya know, to change our luck. Upon arrival, I passed Old Rider and we exchanged a shaking of the heads about what was happening. Well, my little walk worked, though, with 35 unanswered points. I knew we would come back and win, just didn't like having to do it that way. BUT, the important thing is that we won and now we prepare for a big battle next week. WTG Riders!

  Will this be the week we put it all together and play a complete game?
• Go Riders

  This week everybody has to learn the disciple of staying at home on defense and playing their position. No arm tackles just hard hits. Need to send a message early.
• OQB

  

  We will need to gang tackle and hit hard early and often. Would be nice to get an early lead for once too.
