Pretty close to right.

Didn’t get to go to game. When did burg put in 2nd string??

Middle of the 3rd or so.

Congrats to Burg. Tremendous passing game and the only slight weakness might be the running game. Not sure what team can cover Holden and Co in space and the QB throws a great ball.

Best of luck. Should be an easy win out in the SOC II.

Keep it rolling pirates! Congrats on the win!!

Burg had quite a few subs in late in the 2nd quarter but the 1st string did run the first series of the second half.

Passing game was right on target again. The radio had Salyers at 11/14 for 260 yards. The running game was without Reyes tonight and it may have hurt them a little, but according to the radio stats the Burg had 190 yards on 23 carries if I heard him correctly.

Great game burg . Is it time for SOC to start thinking about letting Burg go independent .

They can leave if they feel they are too good to stick around. Nobody can stop them. It will never happen though......Too much of a scheduling nightmare. Burg knows they shouldn't go anywhere.

[BurgGrad6]

Only reason burg stays in the soc is because of scheduling.

Why even ask this?? Just to get crap started? The Pirates are happy right where they are. This is one of the better conferences in our area and is normally competitive, but the Burg is just a step above everyone this year as long as they play their game. Why would they want to leave a conference they have dominated since the early 70's and are considered the favorite pretty much every year?

Dude, he just raised the question. Calm down.

Why would they stay in a conference that has no competition..

. That’s not hard to figure out. It wasn’t long ago Valley put a run together. This conference is usually very competitive. Burg is just holding themselves to a higher standard as of late. Things will get more competitive. West has a good thing going right now. They will continue to get better. They aren’t there yet.

Why would they leave a for sure 4 games every year? Can you imagine Burg trying to schedule 10 games.

[seasick80]

Not me lol

Who would they schedule then? By wk 4 or 5 pretty much every team is in their conference play so that would make for a near impossible task of scheduling games after about wk 5

[Ohiostatefan]

Burg has dominated this SOC for yrs . Why not take program to next level ..

They are Heath, Bishop Watterson, Bishop Hartley and Jackson equals next level !!!!! Ohio State may be to much at the moment

[Mikenmike]

Be careful you're dabbling in the old Portsmouth mindset toward the SOC. The SOC is the best conference in the area by far. If Burg wants to leave that's their choice but have fun with scheduling. You think Watterson was good? They aren't the best Columbus Catholic School. If Burg thinks because Coldwater is gone from D5 they can win state look out for Anna from the Mighty MAC. I think Burg can compete of course but the worm will turn. Look at Ironton and Portsmouth.

[seasick80]

What level? Ur in the most southern part of the state. Not an easy task

[seasick80]

Mike mike, come on. Skeds are made a few yrs in advance. And, Watterson def a bigger school, more kids and should be better talent.
