Wartburg @ Oneida

[TSSAAfootball]

Just watched replay. 1st quarter was pretty ugly.

Game turned in middle of 2nd quarter. Backup QB did a great job to lead that drive.

And then in the 2nd half, Wartburg had no answer for the QB run by Rector. 

May have been different game if the Wartburg QB could have played. 

Next week will tell a lot about Oneida when they play Polk.

Not sure what to say WB enrollment for TSSAA is 383, Oneida 386. I’m not sure numbers are the problem for either of us. I mean after all Coalfield has 162 total students so we both have more boys than they do students and they regularly beat the brakes off both of us. It’s not like they dress 50. I think both of our programs need to do better with what we have. Numbers help but like you said we have a big advantage in the numbers department and CF still throttled us. Y’all are more than twice the size of CF and no real advantage. Both of our programs need something they don’t have more than just numbers. WB is building I will say, the team Carries itself differently than in the past. If the powers that be will keep the current staff in place I think better times are coming. They are changing the culture and it shows.

Yep. Quality over quantity

Whooooo!!! From the middle of the orange seats it looked like the tribe came out of the locker room as if they were the fall guy for the macho man.  They came out the 2nd half like the ultimate warrior!! Whooo! 1-0 in the region baby! Got a lot to work on before the long haul to Polk salad.  You can say all you want to about how tough the Dawgs played but they left the prom alone baby! Whoooooooo you may not like it but you better learn to love it cause it's the best thing going today!!! Whoooooooo.

I’m not sure quality is our issue either. A good bit of talent out there.

Im talking about the kids dressed on the sideline. It's not Oneida's fault wartburg doesn't have more participation im just stating the facts. Wartburg has 9 kids playing both ways. 

Coalfields a whole different animal that I won't get started on, won't do any good. 

 

Good come back win for your squad. It's takes grit to come back 2 scores down no matter who the opponent is.

I get what you’re saying and I understand. The WB coaches are doing good things. There’s a lot of change happening but it takes time.

I wish TSSAA would wait a month or so before having schools turn in numbers. A month after Wartburg turned in 383, they were down to around 370 and got down to around 350 by the end of the school year with kids transferring out, home school, etc... There are so many kids walking the halls at Wartburg you look at and think they should be playing sports, but none of them have any interest. Not saying those kids would make big impacts, but they would add depth and that matters in football by being able to keep guys fresh late in games.

I got to watch the replay and the boys up north in blue played great the first half and just looked totally gassed in the second half. Oneida looked to substitute pretty heavy in the trenches while Wartburg's line was playing both ways all four quarters and that makes a big difference. Oneida has more overall talent and way deeper roster and lets be honest the program is in a better spot at this current time. Oneida did a great job at offensive half time adjustments and came out running the football with the QB and took control of the game. Polk and Oneida will be a good matchup.
