I figured it would be a little bit better of a game than that. Wing-T is hard to stop, so kudos to WV on that.Waynesville 42
Madison 0
Final
Yeah, time to move on from this coaching staff. I have seen Monroe on film and been to a couple games and can tell you that there are absolutely no offensive and defensive adjustments being made. They run, maybe, 6 offensive plays and set up the same way on defense.I think I speak for all Monroe fans when I say we don't have a OC or DC worth a crap. They're clueless. Injuries is one thing but the play calling is god awful. Worst ever I think. Any of us could call plays better than that. The team looks uninspired. We don't have the best personnel to run the option. They run up the middle and do them pitch plays which never works. We can't defend anything really. They're gonna have to figure it out both ways or next year won't be much better. Bellbrook RB is fastest kid I've seen in a long time. That kids a beast. Be nice if Monroe had a RB that fast and versatile.
Snively stays with a school for a year or two and bolts. One of the longest resumes in the business. Not sure he is the answer.Worst offense and defense schemes I ever seen. Never a big fan of 3-4 or triple option. We need a QB who can throw the ball and a D that puts in the effort and toughness to get the job done. Mullins is one hard-headed coach. He's set in his ways and won't change anytime soon. Joe Snively would be a better coach I think. He did pretty well at Fenwick and was on Jason Krauses staff when Monroe was dominant. Time will tell.
I don’t see Monroe winning a game the rest of the season and they shouldn’t make the playoffs.Be nice if Monroe had a RB like Bellbrooks. Kid is amazingly fast. Bellbrooks whole team is pretty fast and physical. Monroe plays Ross next. They're struggling as well. I don't think it's gonna be 13-9 game like last year.
Valley view has all the talent in the world, and they are winning games gritty. My concern is they won’t be able to dig holes like this for themselves come playoff time. If the goal is to be playing in Canton they have to clean stuff like this up.Valley View started slow, got punched in the mouth, went down 20-7 on the road, Edgewood packed the house for homecoming. VV went on to outscore them 42-6 the rest of the way. Have to shore up some issues with penalties and some breakdowns in passing D but 8-0 is 8-0. Onto Brookville
Can't agree more.I don’t see Monroe winning a game the rest of the season and they shouldn’t make the playoffs.

Uh Dcord for 15 years died, best 2 players and team captains gone for season, will see you next seasonReally good Edgewood team? They got 2 wins. Don't think that's too good.
Uh, will smoke you guys soon just like freshman game. Uh 40 something to nothing?Really good Edgewood team? They got 2 wins. Don't think that's too good.
Uh will smoke you guys by at least 20Really good Edgewood team? They got 2 wins. Don't think that's too good.
I don’t typically agree with hoser, but uh, he is right.Uh will smoke you guys by at least 20
So madison lost maybe their best skill player 4 weeks ago looking at stats and you say lost their Qb last week? Will either be able to return this season?Week 9 games, Some very good games this week look for them all to be some what competitive. 2 Monster games that have implications on the small school side.
Brookville @ Valley View- Game of the week here. Brookville coming off a great win against Eaton. VV got things going in second half to beat Edgewood. I have to take VV on senior night but this will be a battle. VV 28 - 21
Waynesville @ Eaton- Waynesville continues to impress, they have enjoyed some of the weaker teams in conference the last couple weeks, but did what they were supposed to do. Eaton coming of a loss to Brookville, we shall see how motivated they are? I'll take Waynesville and sets up a huge matchup next week with VV. Waynesville 34-28
Edgewood @ Franklin- Edgewood played VV very tough, Maybe a step in right direction for them. Franklin is Franklin lost to Ross. Ill take Edgewood 41-21
Ross @ Monroe- I'll go with Ross in this game I bet the over under on passing attempts in this game is 8 combined. Ross 27-14
Carlisle @ Madison- I heard Madison didn't have Their QB this past week. Stinks for them as it seems like injuries have hit the Mohawks very hard. Rival game here and senior night for Mohawks. Carlisle is reeling and struggling to get stops on D and put it all together. I have to go with my heart and take Carlisle in a tight one. Carlisle 28-27
Oakwood @ Bellbrook- Oakwood hangs for a moment but Bellbrook is to strong. Bellbrook 38-13
I agree with your picks unless Orr plays for Eaton, if he plays then I'd take Eaton over Waynesville. Eaton is a different team without him. Not sure why he's missed the last 2 games but they haven't played well without him.Week 9:
Brookville @ Valley View
Waynesville @ Eaton
Edgewood @ Franklin
Ross @ Monroe
Carlisle @ Madison
Oakwood @ Bellbrook
This actually looks like one of the better weeks as far as matchups go. Several big games with playoff implications. The only game I'm terribly confident in is Bellbrook beating Oakwood. Even in that game, Oakwood's offense could make that interesting for a while. The other games could go either way in my view. I wouldn't be surprised to see some upsets this week.
Yeah what I’m hearing is Qb has some issues with his elbow? Maybe some Madison folks can elaborate more. I also heard RB/LB won’t be ready this week coming back from collarbone injury. Stinks as they both are Seniors. Hope they heal quickly and get back to play in playoffs. I’m sure they are trying to do whatever they can to play senior night though.So madison lost maybe their best skill player 4 weeks ago looking at stats and you say lost their Qb last week?

Haven't heard any updates this week but this past Friday night Madison ran everything from the wildcat as RB Rhodus was still out after the week 4 horse collar tackle that put him out with the collarbone. QB Thompson was out as well Friday leaving Madison without a QB and completely one dimensional. Credit to Waynesville, they are a solid team and burned Madison on their big play ability.Yeah what I’m hearing is Qb has some issues with his elbow? Maybe some Madison folks can elaborate more.

UH Edgewoods 6 losses to teams who are 43-6. Four undefeated and four ranked in the state.Uh the mighty Hornets not so much.Really good Edgewood team? They got 2 wins. Don't think that's too good.
If I were to be critical of VV at all, I don't love some of the slower starts they've had against Eaton and Edgewood. Both teams were able to jump out to 14 point leads. Against better competition, that will eventually be your undoing. Brookville very well could be the best test to date for Valley View. It's also a preview of a potential R20 playoff matchup. Should be a great game this week!Break down the VV-Edgewood game a little. Edgewood scored on a pick six, first play after a fumble recovery and after a failed VV fake punt gave them a short field. VV was behind 20-7 and outscored Edgewood 42-6 the rest of the wat. With that being said, VV-Brookville will be a battle. I like the Spartans at home by a touchdown like you said. It won't surprise me to see these two play in the playoffs, possibly the regional finals.
Brings back some great memories of the good 'ole MML days.Only prediction I’ll make this week is Edgewood by 14 over![]()
Grapevine says QB out for the year, RB returns this week or next. They're definitely reeling from these injuries, the little bit I've seen of their Waynesville game was not pretty at all....Yeah what I’m hearing is Qb has some issues with his elbow?
