Thank you Mr. Obvious. That’s Not the question as the best team doesn’t always win. IF there was a rematch, who you got?Doesn't matter, they only have to play once a year
WapakThank you Mr. Obvious good morning. That’s Not the question as the best team doesn’t always win. IF there was a rematch, who you got?
Wapak won on the rarest play anyone has ever seen and dude acts like Wapak won 56-0 lololWapak
Rare? Lol Wapak blocked a FG the week before and almost housed it. Almost blocks a PAT every week as well. Sorry I am confident in their ability to close out a tight game?Wapak won on the rarest play anyone has ever seen and dude acts like Wapak won 56-0 lolol
PROJECT A MATCHUPWapak won off of an incredible play that likely doesn’t happen again even if they play 100 times. This is true, but some of you Van Wert fans are being pretty arrogant. Even if this play doesn’t happen, Van Wert only wins 19-14. Wapak didn’t give up a single point in the second half, showing they made the proper adjustments to slow down Van Wert’s offense. What makes you guys so confident that Wapak wouldn’t win if there was a rematch? I imagine it would be another close game that either team could win.
Not to mention this game was early in the season with an extremely young Wapak team. I wouldn’t mind seeing a rematch, and either team could definitely win. But I’m not seeing why Van Wert fans think it would be such a sure win
Congratulations to Defiance. That was a butt whooping I didn't see coming. Impressive! Good luck against Mansfield, will be pulling for you.Well at least you got Cloverleaf's score right!
I doubt that score happening tbh. It would either be a comfortable Van Wert win by 2-3 possessions or a gritty lower scoring Wapak win, no in between lol.PROJECT A MATCHUP

This is true. Thanks corndog06, and best of luck the rest of the season!!The issue is that 99 times out of 100, VW is smart enough to not punt. There was no reason to. If you fail, you give a running offense a 55 yard field with 10 seconds needing a TD. If you get it, it's over. If you do it right, maybe someone can run around and kill clock and the game is over.
I've been on record all year as saying the result happened, it can't be changed, and Wapak made the play they needed to. They deserved to win that night. But in the same circumstance all over again, I highly doubt the VW coaches make the same decision. That's where most of us saying if that same game is played in the same way 10 times, VW wins 9 of them comes in.
Now with that said....Wapak has the hardware. There's zero reason to be defensive about it.
Don’t see all the sports, where is volleyball?Congrats to Wapak on another WBL Football Championship! And to think there were people who truly thought Defiance would leave the WBL during all this conference reshuffling! I mean why, looks like the boys do OK for themselves in most sports. About to be 28 in Baseball!

So combined what is the score?
It seems like every time an WBL team matches up with a team in that area that it turns into a blowout. OG has done it several times to teams that were expected to give them a much better game than it turned out to be. Just think the grind of playing in the WBL is a lot tougher than a lot of people would like to believe.Congratulations to Defiance. That was a butt whooping I didn't see coming. Impressive! Good luck against Mansfield, will be pulling for you.
Most of the folks talking about Defiance moving leagues were non-WBL and it was just a lot of hot air to get the page count to 100 (now 200?). Anyways, it's cool for me to see their dominance in XC/track. Never really pay attention to those league standings; I thought Van Wert and O-G would be closer in terms of the gap.
