Bridgeport 43'
Fairmont Senior -13
*All eyes on West Virginia for this afternoons game against rival schools that tend to play each other tough... Both come in at 3-0 but at first glance the nod definitely goes to Fairmont Senior Polar Bears *A very curios mascot for WV, no?..
Fairmonts National Rank is #877, #6 in Staten; #2 in Div
(WVSSAC (West Virginia Ranking Commissions) has 1) Bluefield 2) Fairmont Senior 3) Bridgeport)... The Bears have body slammed their first 3 opponents, and Starting QB Connor Neal so far has already amassed 980 yards on 51 of 72 pass through the air.. w/11 TDs... (he has several offers) as last year he tossed 31 TDs.... He has several weapons, but Starting RB Breeden Gilbert (leading rusher with 211 yards) and RB Caleb Walker (as a Jr accounted for 783 receiving yards & 10 rushing TDs w/8 more by the catch.....
Fairmont OL is gargantuan, Jr Zach Frazier (1st Timmy
SDeam All-State (6'3" 275 lbs) anchors both lines on Def and Off....As a Soph he recorded 83 Tackles, 26 for loss, 5 sacks, 5 forced fumbles with one recovered, a one man wrecking crew (*played with two departed WV Mountaineers on full ride)....
Bridgeport comes in ranked #2526 Nationally, #12 in the State and carries a Dynasty Record of 158-28 (87-7 in league).... HC John Cole is in his 2nd year and has has to do some major shuffling and hiring for the Indians Coaching Staff.... The program knows how to win and has captured 9 State Titles with last ones from 2013-2015.... The Offense last year averaged 32.4 ppg while allowing 15 ppg.... HC Cole has kept the offense the same, the team runs the Power Pistol and they make no qualms that they are a run first and when in doubt play Defense....
New QB Jr Devin Vandergrift (5'10" 150 lbs) did start a few games as a Soph when the starting QB went down with injury... He will hand the ball off to all everything RB Jake Bowen (6'1" 200 lbs) had an eye popping 1,916 yards w/26 TDs, he moonlights as Sam LB where he received accolades as 1st Team All-State selection... Bowen already has 480 yards on 51 carries (9.4 ypc) w/8 TDs..... Bowen has several colleges showing interest in the bruising RB..
The Defense wins Championships mentality means the Indians play Iron man football with their best athletes going both ways... The Mike LB is Jr Trey Pancake (6'0" 180 lbs) with a name like that what position would you expect him to play....
Fairmont Senior and Bridgeport game is the top draw in North Central W Virginia each year... Last season Bears won 14-10......in 2016, Indians won 17-14 in league but lost in the playoffs in a 2 OT heartbreak 22-21......This will be the 6th meeting since 2015, with each of the last 4 matches being 1 score games.... Of those 4 match-ups games have been decided by a total of 16 points : including 8 points in last 2...
Should be a good one, and I would heavily lean to a confident QB Connor Neal lead team, however, Neal's two biggest weapons coming out of the backfield starters Gilbert and Walker are hurt and won't play.... This plays into the hands of the Indians game plan of making teams one dimensional.... Granted Neal could go off and have a monster pass happy game, however, I'll side with history and back the Underdog with a pleasing +13 points.
