2023 Massillon Football

[MassillonTigers3]

From what I heard, yes. Week to week. Have to wait and see now.

Tbh I’m not sure why you’d put him in at this point unless Owens gets hurt

 

[Foster]

final score tonight?

 

[Oil Filter]

Just play it at Lake and give Massillon the home side lol

Let Lake take the home side. If we can't beat Lake on the road, we aren't going to beat Avon or Hoban anywhere.

 

[John Lee Pettimore]

final score tonight?

50-7 Tigers.

 

[ftb1]

The OHSAA would put it in Dover, New Phila or Mansfield if they could just to pizz Massillon off.

they could do that but they are to greedy and that would cost them a loss of revenue

I’m not sure they will. Like you said unless Owens were to get injured. I’m just hearing his recovery is going well. But personally I have no idea. So like I said I guess we wait and see. I wasn’t able to get to the game early tonight, did he even throw tonight during warmups does anyone know?

 

[Massillon#82]

North Canton??

I don’t think they will want to host since there is a lot of construction going on with the baseball field etc. but who knows since they won’t announce who is willing to host

That’s the truth.

 

[Ninja Guy Dan]

Massillon vs Lake should be at Glenoak.

Byers Field in Parma.

Too soon for that joke?

 

[DSE 32]

Question ? Will it be region 5 vs 6

And 7 v 8

 

[MassillonJoe]

Byers Field in Parma.

I'd rather play at Lake and give Lake all the homefield benefits. Byers is awful.

 

[TigerPaw]

Agreed! Or anywhere in Stark. Barberton not a horrible non-Stark option, 1/2 hour for both teams.

If it’s Hoban, Avon, Massillon and Cincy team then I would say yes.

Just wondering how we ended up with so many penalty yards as out of the 9 flags , I counted 4 or 5 of the 5 yard variety plus two were face mask penalties of 5 and 15 . Not sure how we ended up with 134 yards ? Am I going nuts here ??

Yeah idk lol I recall a hold and 3 encroachment calls along with those two facemask penalties.

I agree with you I didn’t think we had very many penalties for big yardage

 

[IBleedOrange]

If it’s Hoban, Avon, Massillon and Cincy team then I would say yes.

Agreed and it's a bummer. I'd love to see Avon and Massillon this year as two public schools in their prime. I don't think Avon is long for D2 either. I love that we scrimmage them, but would be nice to get them as a regular season opponent.

If it does end up region 5 vs 6 and 7 vs 8, you definitely have to opportunity for an Avon vs Massillon final. Obviously, both would have to.earn their way there, but it would definitely be possible. Or were you hoping for an Avon vs Massillon semi final?

 

[MassillonTigers3]

Watching CS v Buchtel replay and some familiar names on the field….I wonder if the media makes sure to refer to them as “the transfer from Massillon” lol

That would be fun and definitely possible. I just get frustrated that unless a Toledo team is in the mix, Massillon automatically gets to meet a Cincy team in Columbus. Avon would be a lot more fun and obviously easier travel for the team and fans.

The private school from Akron with 2500 fans never has to leave NEO in the playoffs even though their travel time to Columbus is exactly the same due to freeway access.

This year I would definitely rather play the Cincy team in the semis

How dare you say that other county schools get transfers.

To be fair to that team, half of the players do have a 30 minute plus car ride just to get on the bus.

Watching CS v Buchtel replay...

Do you have a link to the replay?

 

[IBleedOrange]

From a perceived strength of opponent standpoint I would agree it is the easier path this year. I just think it is far less interesting than playing teams up north that you have common opponents and some history with.

So I went through the play by play stats last night and the penalty yds should have been 79.
False Start - 5
Block in the back - 10
Holding - 24
Encroachment - 5
Offside - 5
Illegal batting - 10
Illegal Sub - 0 (offsetting)
Face mask - 5
Face mask - 15
I have no idea where they came up with 134
