As I said, I’m a Burg grad. Big supporter and fan of all Burg sports. Facebook friends with nearly all the coaches. Grew up with many of them playing sports with and against. So I am definitely not a Burg basher.
Based on losses, Burg is in a bad stretch that we haven’t seen with one head coach since Miller took over in ‘72. Something has shifted. I have my theories but don’t know the real reason, hence why I brought it up on this board to hear other’s thoughts/opinions.
Interesting what you said about “No dads” involved. Not sure what to think of that. Some of the pee wee coaches when I played were not dads of any players. Assume that was just coincidence because I don’t recall that rule. For that matter, my pee wee basketball coaches were not dads either. But many of the dads of the boys in my class coached junior high and high school sports. Never really thought about this and the possible impact…
Anyway, hopefully the coaches pull this together and prove my concerns to be irrelevant.

Game totals between Ironton, Jackson, McNicholas
Burg Offensive Yards - 2022 - 961 yards (one OT game) .... 2023 949 yards - Basically the same offensive yardage if you don't count the OT yardage
Burg Scoring: 2022 - 50 points Burg Scoring 2023 51- points
Burg Allowed Points: 2022 - 67 2023 - 62
Now, if they are struggling blocking this year, then they were definitely struggling last year. Because we are pretty much on par in all three games. I'll take a struggling o-line that amasses over 300 yards a game any year.
People see and interpret things the way they want to. In the Jackson game, Burg punted once I think, all other drives were stalled by turnovers, they need to fix that, and they will be fine.
Re: September 1, 2023 Jackson 28 - 20 Wheelersburg
Agree , I’ve been hard on Jackson first 3 weeks. If Jackson cleans up its pass defense and doesn’t jump offside during field goals they win that game 31-14 which is where they should be .

Jackson replaced a ton this year , they haven’t even came close to peaking as a team. I have faith they’ll have it together before league play.

Re: September 1, 2023 Jackson 28 - 20 Wheelersburg
Jackson coaches out coached Burg this past game. Hall did a great job protecting his sophomore QB. Didn’t put him in the spot to make any reads on pass plays. Burg coaches took the opposite approach with their sophomore QB. Hence 3 to 0 turnovers.

If they get those things fixed, I believe they win SOC, and make a great playoff run.

Re: September 1, 2023 Jackson 28 - 20 Wheelersburg
I am not going to argue with you... apples and oranges dude last years team was the second most rushing yards in school history with absolutely zero threat of a pass. Blocking was really the only thing they were good at and that was against 9 in the box every snap. that being said if memory serves me right we had almost 600 yards of rushing in the Mcnick game alone which skews the numbers a lot. Jackson and Ironton stopped us last year. The QB this year can throw but is running for his life and Lattimore/Warren have broke long plays when the QB can get them the ball. We have no sustained rushing attack this year so far. and I think everyone with common sense will agree that all 3 of the teams we played last year were better than this year.wobycat wrote: ↑Tue Sep 05, 2023 11:35 amLet's compare last year with this year in the three comparative games.

Wheelersburg has the line and backs to run the football , a good size tight end , 2 good receivers . I agree pound the rock , run some play action , safe passes and build on it from there. Coaches sometimes are too proud to keep it simple .

I was using last year's team to demonstrate that our o line is fine. Right now our oline is amassing over 300 yards of offense a game and scoring a point average better than last year in the three toughest games of our season, despite a boatload of turnovers. And you would probably be surprised of how well our rushing attack is, I don't know off hand but I would bet we are near 7 to 8 yards a carry. That's just not our offensive identity.
