Alone is the keyword. Elite talent like the Edmunds with great role players and great coaching around you is very hard to beat. Dan River had 1/3rd of that formula.
That's not only what Appo fans told me at Applebee's, they also told me they actually worked on exactly that in practice. Kicking the ball deep to the opposite side of Bradshaw, deep left side of the field.
Told you boys, I'm different. Not here for your likeness. Some at Appomattox can make the "ahh shucks" claims and it's good and well as long as somebody agrees with em and praises em. When there's a challenge, a little bit of unraveling comes around.
The APPO poster made a statement, an...
It's what leaders, the good ones, the great coaches, great leaders of our generation of done for ages. It's what separates them apart. Smith is a classy man.
Disagree. Appo didn't have 2 NFL players on their roster. Graham might be more talented than you think. Graham's freshman Yubrenal Isabell is another future likely Division 1 linebacker like his father who played at UVA and then the New England Pat's. I don't know if Graham beats KW, but 8 years...
I think it would be a great and classy Doug Smith move to take heat for the kid. It's more in line with his character. I don't think it's a bad example. I think it's great leadership and character.
Calpreps Has the Game at 38-28 in favor of Graham
Going into Today, It had the Following.....
It had Graham 38, Appo 27
It had King William 38, Central Woodstock 27
It had King William over Appo 38-34
It had Appo over Central 35-28
I think 35-28 KW over Graham

Graham ran for 356 yds. That's the most given up by Appo since the run started in 15 including the big losses to Heritsge , lots of passing yards with Htage. Appo had around 150 running against Graham.
Biggest factor in that game was Grahams ability to run the ball. Same thing for Appo over Graham in 19 two yrs ago. Even if Graham doesn't get the kick returns, Graham ran it better than Appo, not by much, but enough to kill clock and limit Appos touches. Late in the playoffs at the 2A level...
