1. Beginning of August, told you Poqouson plays in state title and loses to Appo, but giving them a much closer game than the last 2 years...nothings changed.
2. Told you Poqouson will finish 8-2 with the worst loss to Smithfield and the other loss to Lafayette in a closer game. Nothings changed.
3. Told you Buckingham County would be shi' kicked or curb stomped by Poquoson...nothings changed.

Lol, a novel will be forthcoming.
Who's your team EH31? Let me guess, another BC fan? Why even post? If your not an Appointment fan, zip it Skippy; otherwise, you are a another "crabber grabber" piling on and looking to fit in.

I was waiting on it.

Never been to buckingham. Couldn't even point it out on a map.

I've been registered here for 12 years. Never have tried to "fit in", but also never tried to force my opinions as facts either.

Sounds like a poor answer. Don't care where you have been junior, I asked who your team was? No such thing as " forcing opinions as facts." That's impossible. Unless it's a final score, about everything on this board are opinions. That's the beauty of it. Predictions are opinions to. If you don't like them, then either give your own or shove them where the sun don't shine for all I care.

Sorry for disappointing you with my "poor answer". Let me rephrase to appease you.

I'm at Mitchell Stadium most Friday nights &
I don't belittle people that do not take my opinions as gospel.

Not really sure what "my team" had to do with anything? Is Appomattox "your team"? Because this all started you using Appomattox's accomplishments to talk down to someone from Buckingham, right? Sorry you can't take some jabbing.

Yes, you have disappointed me. I like the idea that you don't belittle people that don't take your opinions as gospel. I don't either. I think you should practice what you preach a bit more. So, I think you are saying you are a Graham fan. I got your boys in the state semis since early August. I'm a Bull Islanders fan with much love for Class A, AA, and AAA football. Got Graham, Appo, Poquoson, and Goochland in state semis since August. Got Appo winning it again.

That's not possible. Poquoson and Goochland are in same region. You substituted one of them for Region B champion

Goochland is overrated and benefits from a weak schedule. Got that from a referee last night that called one of their games earlier this year. I have Poquoson coming out of A also, but not by much.

Since I posted went and looked at centrals schedule they have played no contenders but Clarke the teams they have played have 17 wins and Clarke had 7 of those. I think they got to beat someone before you can say they will win region b

All year I've been reading that Clarke is the team to beat in B. And for a while this appeared to be the case. And then Central shellacs them 40-0 and now Central still hasn't played anyone. That's confusing. Who does that leave as the front runner for B?

I didn't say Clarke was team to beat in B didn't say central was or wasn't either I'm just doing checking on central since we have to play in a couple weeks but someone posted central was team to beat B I just responded by looking at schedule and central has not had a close game but they have not played contender but Clarke. I haven't seen central play they may very well the best team in B and give Appomattox run at the title.

You are something else ain't you? 1st of all you got your panties in a bunch because I said Poquoson wouldn't beat Appomattox but a few replies down you say you had Appomattox winning it all since the summer? Dude you knew nothing about what Appomattox would be over the summer so stop that. Had I said Poquoson would beat Appomattox you would light up a star in the sky. I said Appomattox would manhandle Goochland and a few other teams but none of those fans got so in a bunch to the point where you wanna take shots at my team for being down. I can handle that I know whats going on with my team and it will change sooner than you think, but that another story. I apologize from everyone on here who doesn't agree with you from now on buddy. Cry baby a$$ kid lol! Oh you mentioned everything that didn't change but you forgot to mention Poquoson's lost column changed. No disrespect to other Poquoson fans on here but this dude makes yall seem soft.

BCKnights, why are you posting? Your team is not good and 3 things haven't changed since your recent novel. Poqouson goes 8-2, plays for state title giving Appo a closer game than the last 2 years (my opinion only) and your team would be shi× kicked by Poqouson.

This dude got bent out of shaped because I said the same thing he claims he said over the summer that Appomattox would beat Poquoson, so how did I insult him in any way? I deleted my last reply, I'm a grown man I'm done.

No personal attacks here on BC. I stick to the game on the field that is football. 2 opinions I made are the Islanders playing in the dance against Appo as an 8-2 reg season team, and giving them a good game. One fact (actually an opinion) was that the Islanders would curb stomp BC. All of the above is field related and nothing g personal at BC.

Guys, you can disagree until hell freezes over. You can say "you are absolute wrong with your opinion". You can offer a million reasons why someone is wrong. But the minute you start to demean someone, call them any term that is derogatory, you cross a line that you shouldn't. And it will not be permitted. This is not a new rule. It's always been this way.

So express yourself all you want, just keep it respectable, please.

You are correct but also will be points if teams they have done played get wins and the teams left to play gets wins. After each week you have to go back to first team they played and so own to see what they did. 2 for each win a team you beat gets and 1 for each win a team you lost too gets as for rest of season.

question?...am i correctly adding up goochland to finish the season with 23.777 pts? re:vhsl , says they have 88 and 24 bonus..W@bluestone(2-5) = 18pts and 4 bonus?!, if im on the right track the following should be correct, W@RH(0-6) = 18pts and 0 bonus, W@PE(will be 5-3), 18pts and 10 bonus?!, and W@Amelia(8-1) 18 pts and 16 bonus. and im guessing puq. finishes with 23.700. am i way off here?
I think your close and I dont think Poq can beat Gooch. The only decent team Poq played, Smithfield, they didnt even score.

r u sure about this? can anyone else confirm. i dont see that written anywhere, first ive heard of adding points from the whole season(although, i think that would be fair) so i hope you are right

yeah, i would agree with you....im still reserving my vote however, as goochland has played one of the weakest schedules in the state. luenberg (a 1a 4-4( a team that lost to bc and barely beat bluestone) againstrandolp henry (0-7), cumberland)1a 0-7, buckingham 2-5 , bluestone 2-5, nottoway 4-3(all wins against the 4 teams above)fk union 2-5 wins only aginst a pvt school, tjeff(4-3) in arguably the weakest part of the state. with all due respect, im not saying they are not good, but they are playing in the james river and it is arguably the weakest in the state no offense. im not confident in them yet is all im saying. so for anyone to argue without a doubt they would win would seem to be reckless at this juncture.

Poq hasnt played anyone much better. Warhill, NK, Jamestown, Tabb, Grafton. New Kent is 4-2, but they lost to Middlesex in final scrimmage and looked bad doing so. How they are 4-2 is remarkable. That is why I say 2A is down. Its not that Appo is great, though they were last year, its just that no one else is good. We, WP, scrimmaged Poq and they only scored on us once, and that was on a broken play. If they make it to the title game, I will be very shocked

That is correct. I'll try to copy and past what it says.

This is why you want everybody you play to win, win, win.

Here is the reality though. Here in the Central District, you play 7 district games. So other than your game with each district opponent, the other district games are a win-lose deal. If one wins, the other loses. You can only hope that the one that wins is someone you beat so that you can get two points. The exception in our district now is 3a Colonial Heights, chose not to play 6a Thomas Dale. This means that we had the potential to pick up points from both teams, since they were not playing each other. Well, TD schedules Granby, and almost sure victory for them. But then CH schedules Appomattox. Ouch! Not much chance of them pulling THAT victory off! So it will probably be a wash points wise.

i think because scrimmages are just that, a pick up game with 10 plays each etc., they are not real. with teams trying different plays and personnel. anyone else think a scrimmage is the barometer of a good team/season?also, my ? was with goochland not appo. tkx
I agree a scrimmage is not a good barometer. However, it is easy to see if a team has athletes, is well coached, has speed. As always, Poq is well coached. I doubt they would get the check mark for speed or athletes in most games they play or played this year

I don't know why anyone would draw conclusions from a scrimmage. I don't even watch them they are so meaningless. I'd rather watch padless practice.
I've heard that scrimmages are held solely for the need to keep the hopelessly addicted fans, (like me), that are worrying the coaching staff to death with endless question, something to watch as a diversion. They used to tell us to go boil them a pot of water, but we got wise to that.

To me, the point of scrimmages is practice. You work on key things, to see what you have, and get all your kids experience and reps. Same thing with benefit games.

Yes, you can see some athletic ability, but I can't say you can really tell anything about the coaching. The only time coaching may come into it is a new coach and seeing what they are running. The point of a scrimmage isn't to win. I'm sure some look at it that way, but those are usually the ones looking at it the wrong way.

I can't remember who the teams were, but recently (last few years) I remember a thread about 2 teams that had scrimmages that year and met in playoffs. The talk was Team A "won" the scrimmage convincingly so they were going to win the real game, it was a big blowout in Team B favor

I think one of the most important observations you can make at a scrimmage is, organization. Does the coaching staff have a plan for what they want to accomplish at the scrimmage? Do they execute that plan without looking disorganized? Are the players focused and quick to follow coaching directions? Are the players competent looking taking the field, lining up timely and properly?

Usually, when I see a team that looks like it's their first time being together on a football field, the season is probably already lost.

Agree and Disagree. I agree Poqousons schedule is not great, but disagree on Smithfield being "the only decent team Poqouson has played." I simply don't buy that. Southampton is a good football team. Warhill would beat at least 8, maybe 9 of 10 Class AA schools in VA. New Kent is a good team. Smithfield would beat 9.5 out of 10 Class AA schools each and every night. Poqouson is 6-1 and has played 3 horrifically not good teams, but 4 of the 7 have winning records and are good teams in my opinion.

As for Poqouson and athletes or speed. That's never the Islanders strong point. The strong point is their O and D lines, and there are few, if any AA team's in VA this year in my opinion as good as Poqouson on the line. I haven't seen Union who I've heard is nasty up front.

Have any of you seen Poq play?

5 of the 7 games, and will be at 1 of the last 3 in the regular season. I've seen Goochland as well. I think it's an absolute toss-up with them and Poqouson. That's my honest opinion. Why would I pick Poqouson? I'm a fan. Poqouson is coached at a crazy good level, and again, from tackle to tackle, I'm hopeful that matters in quarter 4.

I agree with you 100%. I think in reality, Poqouson is probably the 5th best team in AA. But, the East is simply not as good as the West, and Poqouson's lineplay is good enough to cause a problem for 1-2 games in the mid to late playoffs (final 8 and final 4) against a team that should probably beat them and would appear to be better by the eye test, and especially against a team in the West that hasn't seen them, excluding Appo of course.

Just Diesel's highlights. That may be all I need to see. He's a bruising runner. The OL plays well and the defense is well coached. Best team in the state? Maybe, maybe not. Top 10? Absolutely.
