I'll be posting updates from this game tonight in this thread. There can be other discussions about the game in this thread at the same time.

I typically post each play but only submit after a first down, score, turnover, or punt. If it is taking extra time due to injury or timeout, I will post that too. During the last few minutes of a close game, I will post every play. Should be alot of excitement on here tonight!!

I'll be doing this for all 7 games. Bookmark this thread as I will clean it out between games.

Stay warm!
 
 
At this time, snow does not seem to be a factor at the stadium. This picture is from ODOT

Clearly, you don’t pay attention to trends.

I am old and use to go to all games when there were only six and using Massillon and Canton. When to all games when at Ohio State ( not near as much fun even though I live only 50 miles from the Shoe. When they went back up north we only went to three games on Saturday. Not near as much fun as the other two venues and after over 14 years of going to games TV won out. Some time trends are not the best or fairest way. When going to games in person hated TV time outs.

Can I ask why does Div II get the Thursday game? I am sorry but I think they should rotate all games.

Historically, ever since we went to 7 divisions, the winners of region 5, 6, and usually 7 are all within a relatively short driving distance of Canton, so when the schedule is announced, the OHSAA is effectively hedging their bets (One could argue they don't need to announce is until the weekend before, but the potential schools involved might need more time than that to plan).
 
Avon has 109 players on their roster. No freshmen.

Anderson has 60 players on their roster. Only 3 freshmen.
 
Short kick returned 25 yards to the Anderson 42. Penalty on Anderson...personal foul. Half the disatance. Starting on the 14.
 
Anderson ball on their 45.

1- pass incomplete
2- lateral...WR pass to TE. 50 yards...penalty Anderson ... illegal formation
2- pass incomplete

4- going for it...quick kick. downed at the 4.

That was a huge penalty on Anderson. Had the ball inside the 5 if not for 5 men in the backfield.
