Winner will get Kirtland more than likely

Unfortunately, the comparisons don't look good for LB. McComb, LB, Leipsic and DSJ all are pretty comparable and played good games this season. Coldwater drilled DSJ. This one may be ugly.

IMO........Coldwater wins this by 24 points or more. L-B's linemen will not be able to handle the Cavaliers.

Coldwater wins, but closer than the experts think. ;)

I just don't see a team like LB rolling over and dying, especially when they see spread offenses regularly. I'll say Coldwater 27-14.

You can't compare scores or teams when it comes to playoffs! Go Eagles!

I love it when people try to predict scores in playoff matchups and judge teams based on regular season games and strength of schedule. ANYTHING can happen in November. I have listened to people discount the BVC and call it a weak, watered down conference, and low and behold, they have not one, but 2 regional champions this year. The fact of the matter is - the team that wants it most and gives it their all down to the last snap will win. Even if LB and McComb lose next weekend they have made a statement this year in the post season. Grats to the BVC for a helluva showing this year.

I'm pretty sure both teams want it. Coldwater is just a different animal.

Yep. I'll be interested to see how they match up with Kirtland this year. I haven't seen a whole lot of Kirtland out outside of highlights, but they laid it on Ursuline in the 2nd half.

Agreed. This Coldwater team is much better than last year's team.

Will L-B win this game If I knew what was going to happen in a week I would be a rich man. Should L-B be in this game? Yes because they found a way to win. I don't think they will just lay down for Coldwater and i doubt Coldwater will expect them too. Win or lose I think that this yrs Eagle team can hold their heads high as they have done better than most thought they would. Good luck to the team that wins may they go on and win a State Championship.

I would pick Coldwater based on what everyone is saying about them and seeing their scores throughout the year. That being said I would not think of it as be a blowout based on LB's game against LCC and PH this past week. They had a good game plan and executed it very well, if they can do the same and control the clock and not give up big plays they have a great shot at winning this game. In fact it is kind of obvious but they have a better shot than anyone else as they are still playing. Good Luck to both teams and I hope it is a great game to watch because I plan on watching with it being in Lima!!

No kidding. No one saw them going far. Glad they did though!

Coldwater is on a completely different level than PH and LCC

And as for they're game plan ? 150 total yards ? -13 rushing yards ?? They had 2 drives that points on the board , and don't get me wrong I wish them good luck I just don't think it will happen or even be close .

Final 4 is amazing accomplishment for this team. And 2 BVC teams in the final 4 in is also quite a accomplishment as well.

Good luck to the Eagles amd Panthers!!!!!!!!!!!
