CCHS and Powell appeared to look sloppy. I would have thought Powell would have did better. But CCHS were sloppy too. May have been rain. Be interesting to see how these two team play West.

That was just a bad game overall, although the rain was definitely a factor. Neither QB could grip the ball, and it showed. CC couldn't run the ball at all, and their QB was clearly not 100%. The guy could barely move around, although CC's O-line did a fantastic job of keeping the pocket clean. Last week against Gibbs, the Cougars were up 27-0 when he got hurt. They ended up losing a heartbreaker, 34-27. They are in a lot of trouble if he's not healthy going forward.

CC hit some chunk/big pass plays in the game, and that kept them in it. Powell ran the ball at will and they won the turnover battle, but they had ~20 penalties (>150 yards!), which wiped out a couple of long TDs, a pick-6, and killed multiple drives. In the end, Powell looked like the better team, but they don't have a chance against West, OR, and SD if they can't clean up the penalties.

Yeah they have a good record (Powell) but unless some changes occur and in high school football, that can happen in a week believe it or not, but OR Fulton may currently be playing at different levels.

That Fulton game was really good. Both defenses played incredibly well. Fulton scored with about 3 min to play to put it away.

The game against West is going to be really interesting, imo.
