[Orange and Brown]

We like being underdogs!

NY is never an underdog. I’m sure it will be another week 10 showdown again

[MarauderMadness]

With the new additions to the roster and being prepped by a tough non league schedule Meigs will be hard to handle for the other TVC Ohio teams. Just sayin...

[93Bulldog]

I hope so! And I hope wellston is improved as well. Football season is more fun when we good league races down the stretch.

Nelsonville-York has won the TVC about 50% of the time since 1970. Everyone else combined has won the other 50%. Since Athens joined the TVC, either NY or Athens has won the TVC every year except the year Alexander won it.

Just going off the law of averages, it is highly probable that either NY or Athens will win the TVC in any given year.

NY defense is loosing Cooke, Williams, Richards, Maiden from D backfield; Wend & Yinger at LB, both DE's. They are loosing the best QB they have ever had & their recievers. The new QB, whoever that ends up is untested. If they win 8 games, Richards should win Ohio COY. That said......it's possible!

If you look at NY history, you will find many years where NY lost most starters to graduation and the next group stepped up and won the conference again the following year. Winning programs don’t rebuild, they reload.

Athens - should be their year in all the major sports from a talent perspective. We will see if they can put it together.
NY - just a football program. They will be top three.
Meigs - Will beat the teams they should
Wellston - lost a bunch from last year, but still have some talent.
River Valley - depending on who moves in. kids move around in Gallia Co. like it is a city school.
Vinton County - If Yates (the dad) stays they will finish here, if he leave they could drop to last.
Alexander - really hoping it is not another 1-9 year, but ...

I think Alex will be a little better than most are thinking.

Big fish small pond again same old same old . Once in every ten years a small fish may win. Its hard to compete with the resources available to the big carp.

Big fish will have to deal with Nelsonville-York....
They won't be winning titles year end and year out.

Good thing the puppies do not play Trimble too.

What is the percentage Athens has won since their inauguration into the TVC? No idea but seems to be > .500 for sure maybe close to .700?

The better question is, what's their record since Rusty took over. He'll dominate them, just like Kevin did.

They don't have another blue Chip QB in the pipeline and the Buckeyes have their mojo back.
Don't get me wrong. They will be tough over the next few years, but they will not dominate the league.

They are 46-10 for an 82% winning record in the TVC. But Davey lost to them 5 years in a row. Rusty won't do that, and will probably beat them 9 out of 10 years so while they did dominate during a brief 4 year stretch that has ended. If Meigs gets those move ins like I've heard Athens will be lucky to finish 3rd next year.

I meant record against NY. Is it close to 82% as well?

With the levy failing at Alexander, there is talk of a pay to play policy being adopted. If that happens, Alexander will not have the athletes to compete in the Ohio Division, they will have to move to the hocking. Idk

[Raider6309]

doesnt look good for Alexander football after failing another school levy. I know they are going to pay to play. We saw how pay to play has worked for Warren’s football team

Athens may be getting some transfers soon.
