Not much chatter on the intrastate battle.

Most likey Ironton wins this pretty easy. They are bigger stronger and faster then Greenup and they pushed Russell around quit a bit. Russell most likey playing from behind will try to throw way to much which will lead to 3 and outs and picks. Long night for the Devils.

Not much to talk about. Ironton will send the Devils crawling back to Haites.

Sat right beside 2 Ironton coaches scouting this game. Was pretty interesting listening to them tonight. They took a legal pad wore of notes and diagramed every Russell play and player.

 

Knowing the Ironton coaches they were probably playing tic-tac-toe. Tigers win this game easily.

With having friends from Ironton I've always heard that Ironton never practices too hard for Russell. It will be a good game to have to get the Devils ready for Ashland though.

Probably pretty close to the accurate score. Russell needs to run Conley and control the clock. Only shot they have in this game.

Both teams have something to prove after less than satisfactory performances last week. Russell's definitely outgunned a little, but I think the Devils come out and play inspired. I think Russell will make things interesting for a while before Palladino breaks a long one or two in the 4th.

Ironton in a blowout

Only way Russell has a chance is if they ride Conley and control the clock. If Ironton doesn't have the ball they can't score!

You've been misinformed, they practice hard for every game.

No I have not been misinformed. Granted this is from Ironton players roughly 3 years ago and also when Russell ran Ivan's wing T. Maybe I chose "practice hard" loosely but have always been told Ironton does not get up for this game as in other games.
