Great Coach, Great Man, Great Leader had the honor to call him my coach but nobody should count out NV next Year whoever they bring is intaking a great group of young men ready to work. Thank you @Woody_Hayes

The PT is going to Harvard and he's their best player idk about the LCC QB. Don't sleep on Jerome White from NV is a scary dual threat and makes every defense worried. White is the best player in the conference and I will stand by that statement.

Ok the squirrel sadly won't be in town for the sectional championships, but I strongly believe in both teams advancing on to the regional championship next week. LCC @ Seeger- The Patriots pulled off the upset last week and the Cinderella story continues in a 14-7 win with amazing defense. PT @ NV- What a roller coaster win for NV last week as much as I would love to see NV win I think Park Tudor is too explosive on offense but if NV controls the game I could see the Falcons winning. I am torn but my gut tells me to pick the Falcons in a party at Gibson Falcons win 34-27

Yes those schools are bigger but THN was not good this year as I believe most of the Wabash Valley schools could've beaten the Patriots. You can never judge pre season because teams are never 100% and you are not scheming those teams> I understand what you are saying but I believe the Wildcats would be better playing Northview or Indian Creek or Greencastle week 1 compared to West Vigo.

Ok the squirrel has been busy dodging tigers for survival but I must speak on this weeks game and SV CC @ RP- Same result as last year RP can't compete CC wins 56-0 Seeger at Lewis Cass- Patriots are inconsistent give me lewis cass 45-21 CP @ NV- NV better be ready for a physical game and they will be give me the falcons 34-29 Now SV deserved to win the conference but if they want to win the sectional they can't be playing teams like Attica, RP, PH, and Cov on a weekly basis. I agree they should play teams like NV and Seeger but at some point they got to realize Linton, Sullivan and Cascade are different animals. Cascade plays a tough schedule with teams like Lutheran, Monrovia, and Triton Central. I whole heartily believe SV was better than Cascade but Cascade was more battle tested than SV. SV being the WRC is not good for the conference in my opinion. The two sports they don't dominate is Basketball and football. In sports like track, swimming, cross country they dominate I think they are better suited for the WIC and they would still be relevant in football and basketball in that conference. SV is a good school with a great community filled with great families and they deserve to win a sectional but playing in the WRC I don't see them doing that. The squirrel has spoken Good Luck to all three teams left and to the seniors who careers are over remember the good times not the result and to those seniors still alive cherish every last practice and games with your brothers cause in a year your going to wish you had one last chance.

Alright Its win or go home time will the WRC capture a sectional this year here is what this ground squirrel thinks. BC @ Seeger- Same result as week 2 give the patriots another week 49-27 SV @ Cascade- Game of the week cascade is a good team but SV is also good. Cascade has home field advantage and I believe they will make some plays early but SV will prevail 34-26 FC @ PT- FC is looking for revenge however I just don't see it happening Park Tudor is the favorite and I don't like the Mustangs chances on the road PT wins 43-21 CP @ Covington- CP is a mystery to me but the Tro-Fakers either show up or don't and after a bad loss last week I'm goanna take the Gophers 54-6 NV @ Attica- Really, enjoy the bye week Falcons on your fall break and maybe next year Attica NV 42-0 PH @ CC- Again maybe next year woofs, you improved but not enough give me CC 66-0 RP @ Cloverdale- Cloverdale is better this year and the panthers aren't as good this year, but the panthers are hot and they extend to a four game winning streak 32-12

Sectional 34 Correction: Clinton Central plays the winner of FC PT instead of NV vs Attica

The last week of the regular season is upon us the squirrel can't wait for sectional but now for my week 9 picks Attica @ SV- Congrats to the wildcats not even going to put a score Cov @ RP- Lets see if covington is for real. Its at RP coach sanders and the crew ends the regular season a 3 game winning streak RP over the fakers 28-6 Seeger @ NV- NV had their chances friday and i think they scored down on the goal line but we won't talk about that but the combination of White and Tryon is hard to stop Ill take the Falcons 34-18 FC @ PH- FC pulled it out last friday but I could see them being on upset watch this week with them preparing for Park Tudor next week give me the Woofs 24-20 The squirrel has spoken I Love this weather and football is in full swing enjoy it

One game doesn't make a line all the sudden a top tier line. Covington's line is big but can't move and if were being completely honest seeger is not the best line in the conference the bulk of yards covington has gotten on the ground has been against bad teams like tri county and south newton and Parke heritage. I'm not saying that covington's line is bad, but to say they are a top line unit in the conference is insane. If your good you show up and ball out week after week and covington hasn't done that this year.

I disagree that the trojans are a top oline and dline unit in the conference. NV and SV both did whatever they wanted to do against the trojans up front also FC did as well. Maybe seeger just isn't as good as years past but since we are here, I guess I'll rank the lineman units 1. South Vermillion 2. North Vermillion 3. Fountain Central 4. Seeger 5. Riverton Parke 6. Covington 7. Parke Heritage 8. Attica Thats it the squirrel has spoken and this is final.

I forgot RP @ PH- The Parke county showdown as I don't know that much about either team except that this where I imagined PH would be at the beginning of the year and RP is not what they were last year. Call me crazy but I got the woofs in a close game 28-27

Conference Championship week but this maybe the best week of matchups in the WRC. Covered bridge is just around the corner and that means playoffs will be here soon with the draw being on Sunday. Now time for the squirrel's picks. Covington @ Attica- Covington almost pulled off an amazing upset last week but they will get back in the win column this week with the worst team in the conference. Coving over the ramblers 54-6 NV @ FC- FC got humiliated last week against the wildcats and NV started slow against the woofs last week. NV is better up front and I think White is better than Acton and I think the Falcons are just better give me the Falcons 44-23. SV @ Seeger- Is seeger playing possum after almost imploding against the Covington Fakers last week? Will the Wildcats somehow manage to lose to the Patriots again? This all comes down to a blowout for the conference championship. SV's victory lap goes through Williamsport this week as the Wildcats win 54-12

Ok its week seven playoffs are just round the corner and this squirrel can't wait for October bridge fest, conference championship and the playoffs in IHSAA start. This time of season is truly magical for all WRC football players and I hope all the seniors across the conference soak it all in. However the squirrel still has a job and my week 7 picks are in. Attica @ RP- The panthers have played the meat of their schedule and over the next 3 weeks they should take the chance to win some games and get some momentum going into the sectional of death. Attica has to wait til next year good try ramblers give me RP 52-12 Cov @ Seeger- The Patriots won a thriller last week and next week will play for a conference championship, Covington surprised me last week with a surprising defensive battle against the woofs. My problem for the trojans is their inconsistency against the good teams but this week they give the patriots a battle but Seeger prevails 34-20. FC @ SV- Game of the week with conference implication the mustangs lost a heartbreaker but herb you can never count out. The SV line is what I believe will win them the game because FC looks a little soft upfront give me the wildcats 45-16. PH @ NV- PH lost a game they should've won and NV is rolling after an honorary bye week and I believe they are the better team. Does an NV lineman get another pick six against the woofs this year my guess would be the Hinchee kid. The Falcons are to explosive for the woofs weak defense the Falcons win at Gibson 58-12.

1. The Covered Bridge in Eugene 2. Benjamin's in Clinton

Holy cow no way its already passed the midpoint this season time flies when you're having fun. Let's do a midseason recap. SV is the best team in the conference NV FC and Seeger are fighting for 2nd place and after that we have some teams trying to prove themselves like RP and PH and Cov and Attica are bringing up the rear of the conference. Now for the squirrel's picks. NV at Attica- NV came out flat against RP but the man the myth the legend aka woody hayes will have his troops ready this week. Attica is better this year but they just can't compete. NV wins by mercy rule and they will be classy NV 48 Attica 0 PH at Cov- This game is interesting Covington can prove they aren't fakers and PH can prove they are improved by beating the trojans. Last year this game was a shootout and this year will be the same but this year the woofs come out on top PH 44 Cov 36 Game of the week Seeger at FC- This game will decide which week SV will wrap a WRC title aka next week or week 8. I like both teams Im leaning towards FC because of the Acton kid he is good and Herb will get his sweet sweet revenge. FC 31 Seeger 24 SV at RP- RP is a 1st half team as they showed against NV, RP is not bad they just played the best teams in the conference early but after this week they will get some Ws. SV's victory takes over at RP friday Night SV 42 RP 21
