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 [...]

For this week, we’re gonna break it down a little differently. Because it’s a different time of year. It’s a time when a team that has one win on the year can be playing for a shot at the playoffs. It’s a time when a coach could say “This game really means nothing.” and be [...] 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 [...] When did basketball season start? Seriously. 54-41? 60-41? 69-63? 7-6? Oh wait, that’s more like it. Yes it was an offense happy week 6. But the defense was still out there. Nixa & Camdenton played a 7-6 headknocker. Pierce City & Miller only put up 25 points combined, and even #1 Monett only managed 14 [...] Just call me butter baby, because I am on a roll. Only one ugly game this week and it truly was ugly as Rolla & Joplin slugged it out in the slop. Other than that, I only missed close ones. So, yes. I am feeling better about myself. I am somebody. Wednesday we’ll debut the [...] 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 [...] And we’re off. We’ll review the picks on Monday each week to see if I’m a genius or a moron. The truth is out there. Early conference matchups dot the landscape. And a clash of titans highlights the night. WEEK 1 PICKS Game of the Week Harrisonville (#6, Class 4) at Webb City (#1, Class 4) As [...] OK. I’ve told you all about the teams, the conferences, and made predictions for all of them. To wrap up our preview for this year, here’s my picks for district champions, top players, rivalry games, and other games to watch. DISTRICT CHAMPS & RUNNERS-UP Class 1 District 3 – Cabool, Marionville, Miller, Thayer Champ – Miller District 4 [...] 2008 saw a new power rise in Laclede County as Lebanon flexed their muscle and offensive prowess. Waynesville saw it’s title defense end when they let the eventual state champs off the hook. Scoreboards around the OC struggled to keep up with not only Lebanon, but Joplin, West Plains, and others. And the Camdenton Lakers [...] Rivals released their top 30 Missouri prospects from the class of 2010 and four Ozarks players made the list. Joplin transfer and Arkansas commitment Brad Hefley heads up the SW Mo contingent at #12. Teammate & fellow Arkansas commit Jordan Rainey comes in next at # 18. Directly behind him is Lebanon’s Josh Mattes at [...] |
