NY has never played South Gallia. NY did play the North Gallia Pirates 4 times in the early '70s, which is now part of River Valley.

NY and Jackson have only played 6 times since consolidation. (Although the old Nelsonville Greyhounds played Jackson for over 40 years).

I'll make my guess and rank them as I am stumped...
#1 Athens
#2 Belpre
#3 Vinton
#4 Trimble
#5 Alexander
#6 Wellston
#7 Meigs
#8 Logan
#9 Federal Hocking
#10 Warren
#11 Miller
#12 Crooksville - thats all I got. It had to be somebody in the early years of the TVC. Ironton and Wheelersburg were only like 5 times each, including the playoffs if memory serves my right.

Mister B guessed the final school.........Crooksville
Now everyone can take their guesses as to ranking the teams in order from most games played to fewest games played for those 12 schools.....

Mister B has correctly ranked 7 of the 12 schools. I am not going to say which 7 are right yet though!

They played in the regular season throughout the '70s - '82. Also, they played three times this decade on top of that. Those were some heated rivalry matchups back then. Both Crooksville and NY each won a state championship during that span of time playing each other every year.

Anyone else interested in trying to rank the teams in order of most games played against?

Well, I got all 12 teams and 7 of the 12 are ranked in the correct spot!
If I try and rerank the teams, I'll get a lower score. So, I'm all in with my hand and see if someone else can make a better hand on the river card.

These I am sure of how many times they have played.
Belpre - 39
Vinton County - 38 - no game in 1973
Miller - 10 TVC games - it could be more
Fed Hock - 23 TVC games - probably is more
Meigs - 25 TVC games- could be more
Trimble - 15 TVC games - probably 36 since Trimble formed in 1973
Warren - 16 TVC games - could be more
Wellston - 26 TVC games - No game in 1991 - could be more
I just don't have the NY non-league games documented.
Not a clue on Lagan and Athens, but it would be a high number. Someone from those schools could fill those numbers in.

Rankings:

#3 - Vinton County
#4 - Trimble
#5 - Alexander
#6 - Logan
#7 - Fed Hock
#8 - Wellston
#9 - Meigs
#10 - Warren

Simply guesswork on most of those.

Your TVC numbers add up fine. However, NY played several current TVC schools before those schools actually became members of the TVC in the 1970's. So that would increase games played versus some of these schools. Similarly, NY played its first three seasons in the SEOAL and had some non-league games against schools that are now part of the TVC - those three games in '67, '68, and '69 make all the difference in who the number one opponent is of all time vs. NY. The number one spot has not been guessed correctly. Athens, though high on the list, is not the number one opponent in terms of games played.
Regarding Trimble, Trimble actually consolidated before NY did - in the fall of '64. According to Wikipedia.....At the start of the 1964-65 school year Glouster High School and Jacksonville-Trimble (known as J-T) High School consolidated. From 1964 until 1973 the school was known as Glouster High School. In 1973 a new school opened just outside of Jacksonville in Trimble Township. The school adopted the name of the township becoming Trimble High School.
My only clue I am giving right now is that the person who guesses the #1 opponent of all time will be the person who knows what NY's non-league schedule was in '67, '68, and '69 as members of the SEOAL and/or is familiar with the non-league schedule against current TVC schools BEFORE those schools joined the TVC.

OK Buckeye96, forgot about when Nelsonville became NY.
VC played NY in both 67, 68 and 69 prior to Nelsonville-York joining the TVC. I don't think NY played Belpre prior to joining the TVC, so I guess that would put VC at the head of NY opponents list with a total of 41 encounters which NY leads with a 33-8-0 record. That's 42 years worth of history. The "no game" in 1973 was due to the VC school strike.

You are right! Vinton County is number one all-time in terms of number of games played against the Buckeyes. The Vikings and Buckeyes have played in 41 of the 42 seasons of Buckeye football. The one year they did not play was the 1973 VC Teachers Strike. VC was in fact on NY's schedule for '73, but the game was cancelled (as was several other VC games that year).
So Vinton County has been on the schedule for every year of Buckeye football history, with one game being cancelled in '73 because of the strike, meaning 41 games have been played out of a possible 42 years of football for NY. The first three games were non-league when the Buckeyes were in the SEOAL, and then TVC league games every year since.
NY is 33-8 all-time against Vinton County. Of the Vikings 8 wins, only 1 was by more than one touchdown. The Vikings have won 4 games by one point over NY, one game by 2 points, one game by 3 points, one game by 6 points, and the one blowout - 1996's 36 point win.

Mister B was correct in having Belpre second on the all-time list of games played vs. NY, with 39 games played as of the present.....all 39 have been league games in the TVC. The Buckeyes and Golden Eagles have played every season since 1970. The Buckeyes lead the all-time series 24-15 over the Golden Eagles. Belpre has more victories over NY than any other team except for Logan.
The second place mark in terms of games played is actually tied with one other school, which no one has correctly names as of yet. Anyone care to guess which school?
1. Vinton County - 41 games
2T. Belpre - 39 games
2T.
4.
5.
6T.
6T.
8.
9.
10T.
10T.
12.
