Week 2... Games of Interest

[CowboyP]

I'm 34 of 40 so far this year. Not too shabby for guesswork.

not too bad cowboy, I was 78% correct out of 110 games but I need to be above 85% to consider the system as working. still ironing out a few bugs due to the loss of all my historical data.

I usually end the year between 65% & 70%. I expect to miss a few more pretty soon.

I'm not sure I can comment much on the Oakwood/Milford game, but we did see Milford and Zephyr play week 0. All I can add is that in what appears to be an even game, it should be a match up issue. What I saw from the stands during the Milford/Zephyr game was that Milford had one good spread back that could make defenders miss in space, he had speed, and more importantly, after he bought time by making people miss in the backfield, he still had the ability to deliver the ball to receivers down field. While the team on the whole did not seem overwhelming, the guy, I believe his name was Russell, kept making plays. On the other hand, while Zephyr seemed totally outmanned talent-wise, they still made a comeback and had a chance to win the game. I have not seen Oakwood, but would be interested to hear what they have that can stop the Milford spread back.

All this being said, I thought Geneva and Abilene Christian, who played the following night, would have handed it to both Zephyr and Milford. They were much deeper and had just as much speed. Abilene Christian cruised to 30 point win against Cherokee after their starting QB went to the hospital in the 1st quarter. And Geneva was up 40-8 at the end of the first quarter against Rochelle; and finished the game playing freshmen who made the trip.

That wasn't the ACHS 1st string QB that got hurt. He was the 2nd. 3rd string QB played 3.5 quarters of that game.

All this talk about Oakwood, they should beat Milford they didn't loose but 1 player from last year. I hope they do go underfeated and make it all the way so they can meet up with the mighty grayhounds from Throckmorton.

I hope so too. In order to be the best you have to beat the best. Milford first tho. Oakwood players aare quietly confident.

We shall see in a few more days. After this game either way the team that wins is going up in rankings.

WOW! Now there's a bit of insight.
Careful Cowboy, looks as if you're in an intellectual battle with a feller with the scruples of Larry Flint and the intellect of Shaggy (maybe Scooby)....

Chilli isn't getting any love and thats OK. Playing the #1 tapps D II school this week should at least give an indication of what
they might accomplish this year. Should be a good football game.

I'll be careful between now and Friday. Saturday one of us will have to admit to being wrong. I gladly do it if Oakwood wins.

I think sc vs gc will be interesting

I think sc vs gc will be interesting

I second that

Any predictions on the sc/gc rivalry?

I'm thinking SC with the win, but I couldn't even guess the spread, but then again you can't count GC out. I think it will be a really good matchup with SC on top.

Agreed.

I agree. I think this one will come down to PATs

 

[51eleven]

What position does Pat play? Which team is he on? What # is he?

He's a ghost that isn't seen often enough by several teams.

i have oakwood picked but at least 12. they only lost 1 starter from last year and gained a few more pretty good players and from what i hear milford has pretty much the same team from last year also. but as always they have a good squad and will always show up to play some hard hittin ball. oakwood also has a very good spread back that knows what hes doing out there. going to be a very good game no doubt about it. good luck to all

I can imagine that ONE o you will be willing to congratulate the other. I'd be willing to even make a prediction on who it will be..

 

[queen b]

SC/GC game I believe Sterling City as this one!!!!


Go Getem Eagles!!!!!

 

[RLsteers]

I highly doubt that RL will be 45'd tonight WV not as good as last year and RL is better more depth...I think it will be a good game we shall see

 

[rainjacktx]

I bet certain Oakwood folks will be quiet for a while after tonight.
