Aidan Hoskins and Josiah Robbins led the Rebels to an exciting victory.

Yes it was exciting and came down to the wire. Hoskins and Robbins sealed the game at the end. Hats off to Mercer playing without 5 starters due to injury and losing a key player to a concussion during the game. Only 1 Mercer player has any varisty experience and that is very little. Quarterback Sparrow has changed positions and does not take a snap or a QB rep at all during the week. Just goes to the JV game and plays. He had a good game especially defensively. Had he not been subbed out on the corner they would not have gotten the last TD. Ford showed that he just needs a whole and you won't catch him. Mercers young kids know that they can compete in the future and believe they can win. Which is something the varsity struggles with. Mercer did not play Davis down nor any sophomore that plays minutes varsity, such as Peavler and Bradshaw only spot played... . Will be a fun next few years. Do you know how many players Bolye played down that get significant minutes other than Robbins and Hoskins?

Was a very exciting game. Came to watch for a little while, but ended up staying the whole game. Saw some great plays by both teams. Both QB's and running backs looked very good. Noticed that Mercer did not attempt to kick any extra points, but went for two after each score. Do they not have a kicker at this level? Future looks good based on what I saw on the field.

Mercer is going to be a lot tougher for Boyle to beat over the next four years. I wouldn't be surprised if Mercer starts a streak next season.

Outside of Robbins and Hoskins there shouldn't be anyone else. Boyle's varsity is senior loaded this season.

Boyle only played Freshman and Sophmores. Robbins and Hoskins have played JV all year, they played the first time too.

Championship game? FCHS beat Mercer by 40 and they are in this conference?? I think the conference decided to only let half the teams have a play off that was originally set forth.

There is really a JV championship? WOW

Not true Robbins and Hoskins played against Mercer when they beat them last game and Mercer had 000000 kids playing that get significant minutes. AND mercers qb will not be varsity qb ....he was a fill in. Sorry Boyle your reign is almost over better enjoy a JV championship.

Oh....and mercer could have played all their freshman and sophomores down....and they win. Hmmmm

Just clarified Robbins and hoskins played all JV games this year. Mercer doesnt play varsity players down.

Sour grapes much? I guess we'll just forget the fact that the JV QB for Mercer, Austin Sparrow, started more varsity games at QB than Robbins did. Matter of fact, Sparrow has played more varsity time than Hoskins also. If Robbins is getting zero time at the varsity level at QB can he not play QB for JV? He is a freshman. And to go EVEN FURTHER he doesn't dress for the freshman team. When is next year's starting varsity QB supposed to get reps? Don't hate because your best players on your varsity team are freshmen and sophomores and a couple of juniors(and Darion and Coleman). That's not our fault. Robbins and Hoskins are a freshman and a sophomore. Leave it to sour grapes to have someone complaining about a freshman and sophomore playing JV. :lol: :lol:

 

Accept your loss and move on.

 

But hold up....

 

Let's also take it back to basketball season last year when Mercer's JV team was the whole varsity team and you didn't see any Boyle people on here crying about the daggone JV game that Mercer won by 20 with their varsity team now did you?

 

 

 

That's what I thought.

Go back and read post #4 since you obviously started posting before reading.

That game could be both ways. Yes Robbins and Hoskins do play alot of varsity and so did Sparrow. If Drew and Braxton did play a lot of JV and got hurt then the Mercer people would be complaining about why they were on the field because they have been a big help to the varsity. Nighthawk I'm a huge Mercer fan as people should know looking at my post on the Boyle/ Mercer prediction post. I wouldn't want them playing JV and risking injury. Me personally think it is wrong for Robbins to have that much playing time on varsity and playing JV and freshman but that is up to Boyle and their coaches. Just be happy that the team didn't lay down like the varsity did and showed that they know how to fight until the end. Good game Rebels and congrats on the win. Hope to see more great games like that in the future. I apologize for sour grapes from nighthawk.

And also if my memory is correct Sparrow practices with the JV and also takes snaps as scout team during practice. No excuses!!!
