What are your thoughts on 8-3 Lloyd vs 9-2 Walton Verona Fri?

Word from Newport is Walton's QB didn't play the last drive or two. Hopefully, if this is true, it was nothing serious. He is certainly a playmaker and I'm not sure WV could stop an eventual running clock in this one without him. 

I like Lloyd regardless, but Lloyd BIG if #2 isn't out there for Walton.

I will take Lloyd by 14 they played a tougher schedule.

They do have a few common opponents

Holy Cross -      WV 14-0 W -  LM 47-13 W

Grant County -  WV 21-14 W - LM 47-20 W

Boone County - WV 24-35 L - LM 36-15 W

Owen County -  WV 29-7 W -  LM 42-7 W

Newport -          WV 22-12 W - LM 44-22 W

Juggernauts Look To Impose Their Might On Host Bearcats

Records: Lloyd Memorial (8-3) | Walton-Verona (9-2)

BGP Ranking: Lloyd Memorial (#6 in 2A)

Series History: Lloyd Memorial leads 6-3 all-time 

Table Setter:  Lloyd Memorial's status as district runner-up forces them away from the comfy confines of home, where they're 6-0 on the season. All three losses have come on the road and two of those could have easily swung the other way. The Juggs are just a couple of plays from being a one loss team. Quarterback Isaiah Sebastian (1,428 combined yards and 19 touchdowns) and lead back Kaiden Zulager (1,106 rushing yards and 14 touchdowns) serve as the offensive catalysts, with Sebastian (4 ints.) pulling double duty in the secondary to compliment Elijah Westwood (team high 83 tackles) and Amari Riley and Avander Abrams, who've combined for 15 sacks.

Walton-Verona snuck past Newport in Round 1 with a pair of Jackson Smith scoring tosses, two field goals, and a superb defensive effort. That effort will need to be present again this week to curb a Lloyd Memorial team capable of pouring on the points.

That all together looks like Lloyd by 3 TD's to me.

Lloyd by 21+. They will roll until Semi’s! Would love to see them play beechwood again, and make for a great NKY atmosphere!

I agree Lloyd will win this by three touchdowns if not more.

Lloyd is solid this year. I do not expect for a team to compete with them until semis. They are also benefiting like Beechwood with the east being significantly weaker than the west. Good luck Juggs! 

Juggs are looking great offensively and doing enough on defense to win games. Lloyd knows how to keep the opposing team off the field while taking time off the clock. Walton will not be able to score enough to keep this close IMO.

Bump.
