It was simply a glorious couple of nights for football. While I enjoy catching a game indoors, I think football should be played outside. The elements are part of the game. And Thursday night was a football cathedral. Wind & rain. Mud & muck. Slipping, sliding, sloshing. It was beautiful man. A perfect end to [...]

Some teams rise up when the stakes are high. Others fall flatter than a Kansas wheat field. Seeing a team make the transition from one who falls to one who stands strong can be exhilarating. Watching a team go the other way can be painful beyond all measure. Friday’s action showed off some of [...] Wow! I mean wow! If you look at the state rankings, and remember that we’re in districts now, the Ozarks has the possibility of 4 meetings between state ranked team. One in class 4 with three teams there, two in class 3 with 4 teams ranked, and one more in class 1 with the three [...] I think it’s safe to say we had the upset of the year this weekend. I had Greenfield/Lockwood on my ‘Games to keep an eye on’ list, but only thought it would be closer than expected. Lebanon has found the power switch after a slow start to the season. They’ll need it going into a [...] The people have spoken and they have said with a clear & ringing voice “CALEB”. Caleb Schaffitzel of Fair Grove runs away with the voting for first half MVP claiming well over 2 times as many votes as second place Braxton Baker of Webb City. Schaffitzel with his 18 TDs and 1,025 yards rushing in the [...] As we hit the halfway mark, this weeks question involves who has had the best season so far. Lot’s of good candidates across the Ozarks. Touchdown machine Caleb Schaffitzel covers both offense & defense for Fair Grove. Christian Privett of #1 Monett. Braxton Baker, one of many strong links for Webb City. Maybe you like [...] We’ll be at the halfway point after tonight. That means the weekly rankings, undefeated list, & winless list will debut this season next week. Both lists have been shrinking each week & I think the same happens tonight. At least two winless teams will get their first W as we have two 0-4 [...] Well, it wasn’t a perfect week like I hoped for, but it wasn’t bad either. One of those coming totally out of the blue. Joplin & Camdenton staged a shootout for the ages with Rolla & Parkview not far behind. Ava & Seneca proved they are teams to watch out for. Waynesville continued their free [...] As Monty Python sang, always look on the bright side of life. My picks have been sub-par, but it’s made for some exciting football. For example, I took Mountain Grove to beat Mt. View-Liberty. But it was flat out exciting being in the house as the Eagles beat the Panthers for the first time in [...] It’s a week to get some questions answered. Such as “Just how good is (Branson, Carthage, Rogersville, Nixa)?”. Or “Was the win by (Jasper, Cabool, Parkview) a fluke or are they ready for breakout seasons?”. How about the ever popular “Surely (Camdenton, Hillcrest, Cassville, Ozark) is better than they looked in week one arent’ they?”. [...] |
