There’s been quite a few 8 seed make deep runs in playoffs. Ironton lost 4 games by one possession.

The region 19 championship was played week 11 between Johnstown and Ironton.

Ironton must be a lot better than people are giving us credit for. Johnstown ran over top of Bellaire tonight 35-7. They had to hang on last week against the Fighting Tigers. Ironton will be very good next year.

I believe next year is the year Ironton returns to the top dog in the tri-State area. I think they beat Wheelersburg in the opening game and set their sights on making a deep run in the playoffs. I think Ironton is beginning to go on a run like in years past and many kids in the area will again want...

The Tigers are coming back. Johnstown who basically had everyone back from a regional runner up team escaped on their home field. Ironton had a fumble inside the 1 and a pass called back for illegal motion that put them down at 3. Johnstown busted long runs at the beginning of the game but after tha...

Ashland is 9-0 and ranked #1 in state in 4A... Ironton also gave Burg one of its tougher games. They started the game out terrible and battled back. Also, can you tell me just how good Gallia strength of schedule is and the teams they have beaten with winning records. Bottom line is, 6-2 Minford bea...

Your saying the best player on the field will be a Sophomore. Ironton isn’t going anywhere anytime soon. I think a new dynasty is brewing in the BIG I...

Ironton is not good enough to hang with Gallia that offense can strike from anywhere at anytime. I believe the game of the year will be Ironton and Portsmouth now that he is letting Lattimore run some. Ironton has played two teams with more explosive offenses than Gallia. Wheelersburg and Ashland b...

Gallipolis on cruise control until the bubble bursts in week 9. 8-) LOL! Ironton wins a few games and all of the sudden, its like the Lutz era again! :lol: :lol: I think you will be eating those words in a couple weeks... Ironton will be most physical team you have played promise you that. Ironton ...

Ironton was impressive week one. That is a tough, motivated group. That being said, this week and next will serve as a much more realistic measurement of exactly what this team is capable of. Handle business vs Russell and Fairland away and go into the home debut vs Ashland with only the Burg loss ...

I see a lot of people posting negatively about Wheelersburg after last weeks performance against Ironton. Do you guys ever think maybe Ironton has just gotten better. Wheelersburg returns almost all the skilled kids on offense and the defense is still very good. Last year I thought Wheelerburg strug...

Ironton is going to be loaded for next couple years. They will return 9 of 11 starters on D next year and 8 of 11 starters on offense. Give those kids a full year in weight room with this staff and it’s going to be scary.

72 of burg yards came at end of game in mop up duty. 37 yards of Irontons came on Hail Mary. But Ironton is still searching for an identity. I think they found in late in the game. Those blows will start to wear on you a little bit.

How many drives did Wheelersburg have? They got short fields after short fields and struggled to move the ball. Coach said it best this morning. It took awhile for the young guys to believe but once they did they were playing right with if not better than the state champs. I hope we play again. I th...

Really proud to be a Fighting Tiger today. I knew the Tigers would show up and play with pride. Ironton is a very young team. Only have something like 6 seniors and I’m not sure if all of them even play. I do know Carrico is only a sophomore. They’re Sophomore class has a chance to be something spec...

I’ve noticed after the West scrimmage some of the where gonna give burg all they want posters are changing their tune . I do believe I told everyone last December Ironton lost their entire line they will struggle all year .. this Friday night will be the first start for a lot of tigers new head coa...

If Ironton keeps it close for awhile look out this game becomes dangerous for Wheelersburg... talking to a few around the program yesterday, they truly believe the have a shot to win and they believe it’s going to happen. That’s half the battle is self belief. Wheelersburg will be playing a differen...

Both Gallia and Chilli are down from last year but they are still on two different levels. I agree that Gallia will struggle to get to .500 this year, even with a relatively weak schedule. Ironton does look improved overall, but depth is still an issue. No doubt they will come out swinging and figh...
