Russell/Ironton, OH Predictions

[ryanparker]

Russell visits Ironton's Tank Memorial Stadium this Friday for the first time since 1992. Russell last beat them there in 1977. Ironton holds the overall series lead 20-3-1. From everything I have read, this is one of Ironton's better teams in a while. Ironton kicked off their season by beating rival Wheelersburg for the first time in 3 years and it looks like Ironton fans are confident about what this season might bring. Does Russell pull off the upset of the year or does Ironton reestablish their dominance over Russell after a 17 year hiatus?

[Ram]

I wish Russell luck and hope they can pull off the upset. But, I really think Ironton will win this one. But, this could be a part of a the maturing process for Russell. Russell may loose the game, but will benefit greatly by playing it.

[Commander 25]

I sure hope that Russell puls this one off but I think Ironton wins this one good luck Russell.

[heath91]

I will be pulling for the Devils here, but I think this will be more than they can handle this year. Ironton seems to be back on track and firing on all cylinders. Russell has done good so far, but they have yet to face anyone at Ironton's level. I really hope they prove me wrong, I'm tired of watching KY teams fall to these guys.

[oldrambler]

I agree with Ram in that it will help Russell and they will get better by playing better people.

Ironton imo just will have too much for Russell this season.

 

Ironton.OH - 38

Russell - 6

[Graybeard]

Russell hasn't been willing to play Ironton for many, many years. I think we're going to see why.

 

 

Ironton by as many as they want.

 

 

I am happy to see Russell step-up and play a good team.

Symmes Valley not available? :lol: Ironton will spank the Devils. I just hope Russell avoids injury and lives to play another day.

It's true, they tried to get out of playing Ironton. They saw that Ashland/Raceland game Friday and tried to get another game with Raceland on the schedule instead.:sssh:

 

I too think that Ironton will win. Hope the Devils come out and play hard from the first whistle to the last.

Ohio, rolls in this match up.

Ouch!

Smackdown coming to Devils by the way of the I Tigers. Devils will be Tigerbait.

[Play 2 Win]

Hasn't been willing? I think it was more of a scheduling issue than willingness.

It is just Year 1 of a four-year contract. Tomcats have been real successful the past 17 years with the Tigers.:jump::banana::laugh::sssh:

Hope the score isn't as lopsided in favor of the Tigers as the Russell/Greenup score. But it may be.
