[Burg Bias]

This is the best team that Burg has on their schedule. If Watterson has a power running game then Burg will have trouble. But I think the Pirates can score points. It'll be a good one!
Go Burg!

Beyond laughable.....

Watterson would be a top 10 caliber D5 school

Agreed.

Watterson dismantled a D2 school in Whitehall-Yearling. They were beaten 22-0 by Olentangy Orange (who has only allowed 2 TD's so far this year and roughed up Dublin Jerome).

This is, by far, the best team Burg will face until the playoffs. Watterson plays a VERY tough schedule for a D3 school. If it wasnt for Burg's storied program, I dont think them scheduling a D5 school would have ever happened.

Minford could beat Whitehall yearlings. Ole tangy orange is a new school. Burg gets close to a running clock.

35-7.

Ok. I'll come back and eat crow.

Watterson 24-Burg 21.

[Jolly P(irate)]

I definitely believe Burg will win and that Watterson is the best team on their schedule. I don't see a running clock. This one will go all four quarters. Going to have to fight all night to get this one done.

I do not see a running clock. I see Burg winning but they will earn it. You are going up against a well disciplined catholic school, so buckle up. Burg by 21.

I wish Abe. But my Cavaliers will be out matched Friday at The O. I heard Harris is out. I will take Hartley by 4 TDs. Go Cavs though! lol

Olentangy Orange has been around since like 2011, if not before. That's not a new school.

Edit: I was wrong, they have been around since at least 2009, since they made the playoffs that year. They made the D1 playoffs last year as well.

There is far more to this topic, as it relates to enrollment trends, beyond the adjusted enrollment numbers for football. I have this conversation with educators in Ross and Scioto counties from time to time. To frame this as "people only care about athletics" when it comes to unwillingness to enroll into home district is incorrect.

Never would we say that. We respect all opponents. Big or small.

I am a burg grad and fan and I hope Burg wins but I see this being a very close game and burg will have to play lights out to win this one but will be a great game to get ready for the playoffs
