Listened to this game and the Central Rebels were in this til the end. Win out O C and you will be playoff bound.

 

Good Luck.

There was some real head-knocking going on out there....Big boy football...My son's first words out of his mouth when he got home was "54 is a baller"...

 

I want to take a minute to show my gratitude for some OC kids going out there and playing hurt/injured...Tyler Tankersley ,who is a cancer survivor, not only has dealt with that to get back on the field, has been playing despite a painful foot injury,LaDevin Fair has been playing with a groin injury,Shawn Weaks has been playing with a bad knee,collar bone/shoulder and migraines,Joe Ferguson has played with bad knees his entire career, Stratton Moore has been battling a concussion and Trey Phipps had an automobile accident on Thursday on his way to practice that he is lucky to have walked away from uninjured...Rolled his truck....Seat belts save lives...Dylan Trout will probably have to have surgery on his shoulders at season's end, Lucas Garland had surgery on his shoulder in the off-season and in the very first game he separated it again, Kevin Cumana will more than likely face shoulder surgery in the off-season, Chris Donaldson broke his hand early in the season and has been playing with a cast, big Skylar Hopkins has been playing with a bad shoulder and ankle..There are probably more but I just wanted to let those guys know that I appreciate, and I know all other Rebel fans appreciate, your dedication to the program and sucking it up and playing through the pain...In this day and time when it seems hard to get kids out for football with all the other things going on in their lives and just the simple fact football is a tough sport, mentally AND physically, to play and some kids just don't want to put out the effort, it's refreshing to see some that do...

 

 

54's name is Barkley Legens. He does play both ways as a Defensive End and an Offensive Right Tackle. He also plays with injuries just as the rest of the Westview team does. Its Football not water polo. Their are injuries every week and usually on every person. I might have taken it wrong but it seemed as if you were kind of saying that because of OC's injuries it gave Westview an advantage. In that sense every team plays with injuries and does not necessarily give you an excuse. Sorry if i have taken your quote wrong.

Rebfan, please dont take that post as the true feelings of anyone from the Westview side. I have been a Westview supporter for 30+ years and was certainly there for every second of the game. The only questionable action on the field Friday night was the action coming from the officials. They made some calls that I think we might both agree could have been done without, not to mention the unending conferencing they did that prolonged the game. There was no unsportsmanlike conduct on either side. It was a hard fought game, and we are are pleased that we came away with a win. We respect your program and your players. Best of luck.

I didn't take that as a view from Westview as a whole at all. This person was on here last year saying the same kinds of things when these teams met. Most likely a kid or an extremely immature adult. We have tremendous respect for your program. We want to be where y'all are which is a solid program year in and out. Coach Jackson and his staff I believe are the right ones to get us there. We have come a long way from those two 0-10 seasons. With a lot of our starters being underclassmen I think the best is yet to come from this group. Best of luck to the Chargers as well.

Don't give up now....It's happened one time...You take NO game for granted and the Rebels better not do it this week or they'll go home with a loss...Just like 2004...
