  1. Overlook SW at your own peril. I know Page is a great team, and are used to football in late November. The way SW has taken care of business against 3 perennial contenders in Springfield, Beech, and HC tells me they have a real shot. Very athletic, well coached, and not going to beat themselves. Wish I could make this one!
  2. Springfield laying down in this one. 2 fumbles deep in SW territory is costing the Jackets. 21-0 SW
  3. Jackets have improved. Wouldn't be shocked to see an upset round one against SW, but I know nothing about them. Good to see the Fr QB get some snaps, he's got a live arm and hit some nice passes. Should be a good player as he matures and gets stronger!
  4. Jackets rolling so far. 21-0 Springfield after 1. Portland with negative yards offense so far.
  5. Well Jackets got the win, but man was it ugly. Lots of self inflicted wounds from both sides. The good: The Jackets looked in shape and fast on Defense. Held GB in check for most of the night. Other than the one deep shot, GB biggest gains were on QB scrambles. The quick passing game for the Jackets looks promising. It hurts losing #9 for the year, but the sophomore 88 showed flashes. He's gonna be good! The bad: We are small. I'm really concerned, we're gonna get pushed around by bigger teams. QB has improved, and a pretty good runner, but the downfield passing game is not there. I think we are gonna struggle to put up points at times. All in all, Jackets are well coached and play hard, but I think 5-5 is about right for this schedule. I do think they beat Portland for the 4th playoff spot.
  6. Coopertown Middle does indeed have a football team! The new coach is young and learning on the job, but he did play NAIA football so he knows the game. They were late getting started after his hire, but so far have faired pretty well. Beat IA (the magnet school) 28-0 in a half at the jamboree, and won 20-0 last night against Sycamore Middle in the first game of the season. Not a ton of guys, probably 28 dressed, but there are some pretty good athletes. I also agree that there will need to be a new Middle School in Springfield in the next 5 years. The Coopertown area is growing, with new construction happening all over the place, and the school is almost at capacity. Having no Middle School in the biggest city in the county is not a good long term solution.
  7. Jackets never recovered from that bad snap that lead to HC td. Had their chances, couldn't capitalize. Hats off to HC, great team. Bring home the gold ball!
  8. Yes Springfield wasn't clicking on all cylinders on offense last night. Too many self inflicted penalties, and gave up some bad sacks. It became apparent in the 3rd Q that MC wasn't trying to win the game, but to keep it close. They punted several times in Springfield territory down 21 points. The Jackets were content to run it into a 9 man box and run the clock out. I don't blame them for trying to get out of there with a W and not sustain injuries. This game got pretty chippy, would have been bad to lose a key player on a dirty hit in a game that was never in question after the 2nd quarter.
  9. 27-7 at half. Looks like it's going to get chippy in the 2nd half. Hope I'm wrong, and the refs get control
  10. How did Central/ Munford turn out? Haven't seen a final
  11. Hearing Crenshaw gonna play some Friday. Wouldn't expect it to be a lot, but probably wouldn't hurt to knock the dust off before the playoffs.
  12. Nice win for the Bobcats. What are their playoff chances looking like?
