Agreed 99%. I think with Ashland having not been able to practice for the last 13 days plays into Loves decision not too throw 4 new  O-Line starters and a new QB against JC. Ashland returns 9 starters on D and would be great preparation for Belfry. As a fan I’d love too play the game though. Ashland’s schedule outside of Raceland and Russell is a joke. Spring Valley game probably won’t happen and no Wheelersburg, Ironton, George Washington games stings too.

Johnson Central has two new starters on the offensive line and they're breaking in a new starter at quarterback as well. JC is also replacing their entire offensive backfield. Johnson Central returns 4 starters on offense and 6 on defense. I'm kind of shocked that this game isn't being played especially since Ashland had to cancel their week one game. Why would Coach Love be comfortable with playing Spring Valley this week but not Johnson Central? There's not much difference between Spring Valley and Johnson Central in my opinion. This would be a an awesome game to see for both fan bases.
