Fairmont has a decent defense and plays smart. They don’t generally beat themselves and commit few penalties. As mentioned previously, they run the ball on nearly every play. Coach Miller may sneak in a pass once in awhile, but lives and dies with the run. They typically finish in the middle of...

Burg did a great job of bunching the line and taking away the Fairmont running game in the 2nd half. Once again Coach Miller does not pass the ball until they are down 28-10 in the 4th. This is why the are perennially a .500 team.

It’s really too bad Miller has such an attitude about the passing game. They do not need to go to the spread, however, as you stated, they need to add a passing threat if they want to compete for GWOC championships. As others have posted, they have had some quality offensive skill position...

Agreed. This was a total beat down especially considering Fairmont’s only score was an 82 yard kickoff return. Defense could not put any pressure on the TM QB and the team speed differential was very obvious. Coach Miller is a fine coach. His teams play smart and are very disciplined, but they...

I think Alter is much better than last year and will fare much better in their league games this year. Fairmont will find it difficult to fill the major holes left by graduation. Regarding last night’s game, Alter lost two fumbles and Fairmont one early in the game when it was raining pretty...

Wayne will be highly motivated for this game. They will get up on Fairmont early and cruise to a 28-10 win.

Season is definitely not over yet. Wayne will play at Fairmont next week in a rematch of a game they probably should have won. I look for Wayne to win by two touchdowns.

Nice pick. It was 26-21 Fairmont!

Miller has returned Fairmont to respectability and most fans appreciate that. The program is to the point now that with the overall size of the school, the amount of students that play, and the buy in from the kids in the middle schools, there is no reason they cannot seriously compete with SHS...

Yes Fairmont is on mvcc.

Fairmont D will keep it close the first half. SHS weapons will be too much in second half. Springfield 35-10.

Fairmont has definitely improved since Miller took over, primarily with discipline and a reliance on strong fundamentals. Those are all important, however, I agree with others that for Fairmont to actually challenge for conference championships they must move away from the wing-t offense. Miller...

Northmont totally exposed Fairmont. As usual, Fairmont ran the ball nearly every down, even after being down 28-0 at the half and with no urgency to get to the line of scrimmage to even attempt a comeback. They will never be a serious contender to win the league until they change up their offense.

Fairmont’s style cannot keep pace with most of the other GWOC teams and they were totally outclassed on both sides of the ball by Northmont. A 28-0 shutout. Fairmont will once again end up about a .500 team.
