First let me start off by saying, Congrats to all the Owls football teams (Varsity, JV, and Freshman) for an undefeated regular season (25-0). I'm not sure if anyone else in the state can say that.
Second, can the Owls win state? As much as I would love to see it happen, "I" don't think they will have enough down the stretch to pull it off without some luck going their way. All champions need a little luck to be able to run the table. Some call it luck, some call it Destiny.
Any number of things can equalize a game. Turnovers, weather, coaching just to name a few. Ask Riverdale fans about the latter because they should be sitting there undefeated. They never should have lost to McCallie and anyone who says otherwise is an idiot. This is coming from a totally unbiased party!! I do think McCallie will win state for Div II however.
To win state and go undefeated, you need a few bounces to go your way and the Owls have had their share so far this year. I hope they continue to go the Owl's way.
One thing about this years Owls team, they do not quit!! I must say, this is what impresses me the most. In the past, Owls teams would lay down when things didn't go their way. Anyone who plays the Owls will know they have been in a fight regardless of the outcome.
Now, with that said, GO OWL'S, WIN STATE!!
