Didn't even need to pass the ball once it was so dominate. At the end when GO got the ball back after Hoover scored with 6 mins they just went same play same side over and over again. Grinded out 6 mins and 3 Hoover timeouts to ice the game. All of it behind that line. The tackles, TE and FB were abusing hoover players. They knew it was coming and could do nothing about it. Pretty impressive to watch.
Pretty impressive that Hoover coaches made no adjustments. As you say GO ran right all night, away from 17 the best edge defender. So flip the DEs and force them to go away from the strong side of their line. They have a huge kid #79 standing on the sidelines, throw him in there to eat up blockers and allow the LBers to get downhill. Did we ever get into a 5 man front?

Shouldve been an onside kick after the last TD as nothing indicated the defense would be able to force a stop.

Wasn't that the worst display of kickoff returns by both teams you have ever seen.We would kick popups to the 35 and hoover would just catch them and fall no matter where the defenders were and when Hoover kicked to us we would either drop it or run backwards 15 yards.We should be great on returns but we are terrible. I was surprised Hoover didn't go for it on 4th and short a couple of times but they did punt in that situation once and we fumbled on our 5.

Great comeback Canton McKinley after being behind 27-7 at Half time to get the win.

McKinley had 6 turnovers. Five in the first Half.

I was at ALL the games last night. Here are my thoughts:

McKinley: Come back kids... A true sleeper FED team

Perry: There no hope for the Panthers. Im sorry. Try something new... 5 wide???

Lake: A team slowly improving. They remind me of the Michigan Wolverines

Hoover: Vikes coaching staff is a bottom 2 coaching staff in OHIO (not 2). The vikes could use a real football mastermind like myself.

Green: As a die-hard Green fan, I can say that the refs are the reason we lost. the REAL BULLDAWGS got snubbed.

Jackson: Surprisingly, undefeated in the FED. I know everyone on here can relate to me when I say who the hell saw this coming

Officiating in the Federal League has been lackluster and really bad for the last 6 years and it continues to get worse.
I have seen the Federal League crews do some games out of the League and are very biased against certain people

GO beat Hoover. Makes sense for them to be below Hoover. 😂
There's a quirk in the model because one of Hoover's opponents is not considered. So it's only looking at 4 games for them but is looking at 5 games for GlenOak. If GO hangs in there with Green or beats them, they'll rise significantly.

I've said all along Green has no running game. They haven't had a great one in years. Now with their QB out they have nobody to get the ball to their outstanding Receiver tandem. Green is getting better but just not turning the corner. They were better than Jackson and found a way to lose.
They were not better than McK but should have EASILY won the game. Of course their QB going down had a lot to do with it. To get to the next level they have to win those two games instead of finding ways to lose. They aren't likely to win another game but we do have a really good coach so maybe he can come up with something?

A very strange and biased post.

Where do you get your stats if you don't mind me asking?
Not respond for "CantonKid", but the majority of the stats listed above were mentioned in the Repository's game coverage. MaxPreps also provides stats if you are registered to access.

MaxPreps only provides stats if someone bothers to add them, I'm the Jackson scorer on MaxPreps. I'll probably start keeping track myself now.

Perry’s pass defense is horrible, why should we be impressed??
"Big Time" Sports can't even spell one of the counties they're supposed to cover as a media outlet correctly. GURNSEY County.

Total yards

McKinley 491
Green 272

First downs

McKinley 28
Green 11

McKinley had 6 turnovers
Regardless of the stats, Green would of won this game if QB didnt get hurt. He went down early and they still almost won. Injuries are part of the game just like turnovers are. Not sure why you keep posting this info.

Dang, you been on McKinley's team 15 years now? I'd be surprised, but this seems to be the average time it takes McKinley students to graduate.
Wow! I had previously given you more credit as a person of class and integrity. But your obnoxious and illiterate comment above reflects, not only your, but probably the Jackson community's overall snobbish and arrogant attitudes. Pathetic!

I had no intention of making any comments until he escalated the conversation, as they say, don't dish it out if you can't take it. I have nothing but respect for our fellow Stark County schools, including McKinley, as I don't believe I've had the displeasure of not liking anyone I've met from McKinley. Do I regret what I said? Yes. Do I feel like it was unwarranted? No. I'm sorry you clearly hold a grudge against the Jackson community, as we're some of the kindest and most welcoming communities and environments in the whole state, if you've ever been to a game you'd know this. My friendly banter was not meant as an insult to "Cantonkid", merely as I said, friendly banter. Have a good day, Go Bears!

You sound like a politician. We were talking sports but you made personal. I have went to many McKinley-Jackson basketball games and sat with the Jackson fans. I could not believe what i heard. Many remarks like yours and worse. Sorry to say i heard the N word and making fun of the way McKinley fans dress and comments like yours. Go Bulldogs!

I've been trying to be as respectful as possible, but since you want to attack Jackson fans, this is what I'll say about McKinley in the many times I've been to a Jackson McKinley event (in multiple sports). McKinley fans are the absolute worst in the Federal League, and not just this but probably Northeast Ohio. There's not a set of more disrespectful fans, fans that will scream threats at the refs during basketball games, vandalize the school if they lose (I would know as I was a student at Jackson not too long ago, and I've witnessed it.) Your fans scream slurs at our student-athletes, they trash our stands they scream at the refs, it's the most pathetic behavior by a high school fanbase in the entirety of Northeast Ohio. It's also a shame considering every McKinley student I've ever met was amazing, and I love engaging in friendly conversations with them at games, but if you want to insult our fans, here's what yours do. Call us all the Jackson stereotypes you will but this is how it is. I made a single joke in response to an argument you started, and you took it upon yourselves to call us racists and practically horrible human beings, while I went out of my way to say I thought McKinley students were some of the best I've had the pleasure of interacting with.
