Novemeber 1st, 2014 will be the 125th time the Tigers of Massillon Washington will play the Bulldogs of Canton McKinley. The series began in 1894 and the all-time record is held by Massillon at 67-52-5. There are expected to be more than 17,000 people attending the game this Saturday which is located at Massillon Washington Highschool.

This year holds something special for us Buckeye fans though, we will get to witness two homegrown Buckeye commits square off. Danny Clark, class of '17, is the QB for the Massillon Tigers and will attempt to attain his 2nd win against McKinley in just his Sophomore season. On the other hand we will see Eric Glover Williams, class of '15, who plays running back and sometimes QB for McKinley. EGW is at 1,044 yards this season on 174 carries, with 13 rushing touchdowns.

So who is going to win?

Will it be the young gun from Massillon or the senior trying to go out with a bang? Time will tell Saturday.

 

EDIT: If you don't know anything about this rivalry or the traditions of Massillon I encourage you to watch "Go Tigers!" It is currently on Netflix.
