- 1:07Speaker 3: on a Friday night, there's one Thursday ball game Homini
- 1:10Speaker 3: this week, but everyone else will play on Friday. Guys,
- 1:13Speaker 3: good evening, How are you good?
- 1:15Speaker 4: Fantastic? We call it week one and a half for
- 1:17Speaker 4: night Now.
- 1:19Speaker 5: It's week two.
- 1:20Speaker 6: Are trying to just needle Nighthawk by saying week one
- 1:23Speaker 6: week zero?
- 1:25Speaker 3: Anything if not accurate, and it is week.
- 1:27Speaker 7: One, Please don't needle night Hawks. That's the last thing
- 1:29Speaker 7: we need.
- 1:30Speaker 3: It is confusing, I'll be honest. I'm more Usually it
- 1:33Speaker 3: doesn't confuse me that much. Is usually only half of
- 1:37Speaker 3: the team's play. But now that everyone around here anyway,
- 1:40Speaker 3: there are lots of other teams didn't, but everyone around
- 1:42Speaker 3: here played, so I am a little confused. We have
- 1:44Speaker 3: two teams that a buye this week already, So two
- 1:46Speaker 3: teams that played last weekend are off on Friday night?
- 1:50Speaker 7: How bad would that be?
- 1:52Speaker 5: It's brutal and it's Claremore's week one, it's Barso's week two.
- 1:56Speaker 5: I mean, I don't I can't keep up with it.
- 1:59Speaker 7: Dogs again living together. It's pandemony.
- 2:01Speaker 4: We had a bye week in the season. What what
- 2:03Speaker 4: would be your preference?
- 2:05Speaker 5: Well, for sure, any team that I would coach would
- 2:08Speaker 5: be a playoff team. So I've won about week nine? Yeah,
- 2:11Speaker 5: maybe Week not Week ten. Late yeah, late, yeah, so same.
- 2:17Speaker 4: I don't know.
- 2:18Speaker 5: I can opening duck season.
- 2:20Speaker 8: That's not a bad idea, but I kind of like that,
- 2:23Speaker 8: play your first three non districts, then get a bye,
- 2:26Speaker 8: and they started into districts.
- 2:27Speaker 4: I don't know.
- 2:28Speaker 3: So let's mention the two teams that we're not going
- 2:31Speaker 3: to pick because they don't play this week in South Coffeeville,
- 2:34Speaker 3: what's the in Christian School? The two that are off.
- 2:36Speaker 3: Mustang's lost to Yale in Blaine, Landers debut forty eight
- 2:40Speaker 3: to nothing. That was a halftime ballgame in Bartlesville on Friday,
- 2:43Speaker 3: South Coffeeville sixty to twelve when over Graham Dustin. Congrats
- 2:48Speaker 3: to the Lions, they're one to zero. Both those teams
- 2:50Speaker 3: are off this week. What's the and Christian School take
- 2:53Speaker 3: on Kyota got a chance to talk with coach Landers.
- 2:55Speaker 3: Feels like there's some things to build on there. Even
- 2:58Speaker 3: though it was a lopsided loss, a lot of new guys,
- 3:01Speaker 3: first year head coach against a really good program in Yale.
- 3:04Speaker 3: That was a tough season opener. Kyoto won't be a
- 3:06Speaker 3: ton of easier on the thirteenth for their second game,
- 3:10Speaker 3: but those were the two finals and teams that we're
- 3:12Speaker 3: not going to talk about this week, but congrats to
- 3:14Speaker 3: the Lions for a win over Graham Destin.
- 3:17Speaker 4: Hey, Evan, can we go back to that by week
- 3:20Speaker 4: one more time? Yeah?
- 3:21Speaker 7: Sure, because we're not allowed to talk about those dudes.
- 3:23Speaker 4: I think it would depend on my team. If I'm terrible,
- 3:28Speaker 4: We're no, we're going to be terrible. I don't have
- 3:29Speaker 4: a week ten.
- 3:30Speaker 5: By that a way, get all that's over? Yeah, and
- 3:33Speaker 5: then I watched some games. Yeah, yeah, let's get out
- 3:36Speaker 5: of here and get the game that mean something on weekend.
- 3:37Speaker 4: Exactly.
- 3:38Speaker 5: That's good. Let's go do that. You were such a thinker.
- 3:41Speaker 3: So let's hop into the ballgames, guys. We'll start with
- 3:44Speaker 3: Kenney Valley on the road at Hulbert Trojans h to one,
- 3:47Speaker 3: lost to Barnesdall In Ramona fifty five to twelve last week.
- 3:51Speaker 3: Hulbert did not play during zero week scrimmage Regent Preps
- 3:55Speaker 3: seven days ago. Two teams have not played since twenty
- 3:58Speaker 3: twenty one. Canny Valley swept them during the last two
- 4:01Speaker 3: year period that they did play, beat him forty three
- 4:04Speaker 3: to six in twenty twenty one, forty two to nothing
- 4:06Speaker 3: in twenty twenty. Holbert went oh to ten in twenty
- 4:09Speaker 3: twenty three, so that was last year. Twenty twenty two
- 4:12Speaker 3: and twenty one they went oh and six and twenty twenty.
- 4:15Speaker 3: The Riders have not won since November the eighth of
- 4:18Speaker 3: twenty nineteen. It's four years, nine months and twenty one
- 4:22Speaker 3: days before they play in Ramona on Friday. It's thirty
- 4:26Speaker 3: six game losing streek Kney Valley is an eighteen game
- 4:29Speaker 3: losing streak. They've not won in a year ten months
- 4:33Speaker 3: or sorry, one year, eleven months and twenty eight days.
- 4:36Speaker 3: Their last win was September the ninth of twenty twenty two.
- 4:39Speaker 3: So either Kney Valley will snap an eighteen game losing
- 4:42Speaker 3: streak or Holbert will snap a thirty six game losing
- 4:45Speaker 3: streak on Friday in ram In a Holbert a bigger.
- 4:48Speaker 7: Parton Evan, This is gonna be a very exciting game.
- 4:51Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree.
- 4:52Speaker 6: But can we start with the trip to Barnstall last week?
- 4:55Speaker 6: So I will talk about Barnstall down here.
- 4:57Speaker 3: It was in Ramona, but yes, in Ramon, it was
- 5:00Speaker 3: in Ramona last weekend.
- 5:01Speaker 4: Yeah that's right.
- 5:02Speaker 6: Yeah, So so how do we know anything about how
- 5:06Speaker 6: the game?
- 5:07Speaker 3: Talk to both those teams, both those coaches, and it sounds,
- 5:10Speaker 3: you know, fifty five to twelve's probably it was somewhat competitive.
- 5:15Speaker 3: I checked the score throughout. You know, they were up
- 5:17Speaker 3: by two or three touchdowns most of the time, but
- 5:19Speaker 3: it wasn't a running clock situation. If that, If that
- 5:23Speaker 3: answers your.
- 5:24Speaker 5: Question, Yeah, Marnzell had a good night. That big injuries.
- 5:29Speaker 5: So three injuries. Two of their studs, I think the quarterback, yeah,
- 5:34Speaker 5: so yeah, so their quarterback, four year starter I think,
- 5:39Speaker 5: broke his foot. Obviously, we know about the running back
- 5:43Speaker 5: that didn't have a injury, Yeah, Eastman Loans, so he's
- 5:49Speaker 5: out for the season. And then they lost two others.
- 5:52Speaker 5: So it was not a win that didn't come with cost.
- 5:56Speaker 4: Holy Moses.
- 5:58Speaker 6: Okay, well, I I'm taking Cannie Valley all the way here.
- 6:02Speaker 6: I mean, for one thing, they have won more recently
- 6:07Speaker 6: than Hulbert, and so I think they've got that you know,
- 6:11Speaker 6: winning mentality from from a couple of years ago. So
- 6:14Speaker 6: I think I think it's Katie Valley all the way
- 6:17Speaker 6: in this one. It's gonna be thirty seven straight for Hulbert.
- 6:22Speaker 5: If I'm selling pillows, I would go down and sell
- 6:27Speaker 5: them in the.
- 6:28Speaker 6: Just because yeah, yeah, because there's a lot of people
- 6:31Speaker 6: that need a good rest.
- 6:32Speaker 5: Yeah, exactly. Okay, I am also picking Canney Valley. I
- 6:35Speaker 5: think that Hulbert is over something. Yeah, so it's gonna
- 6:41Speaker 5: pick up Katie Valley. All right.
- 6:43Speaker 8: I'm taking Kenney Valley because last year we talked about
- 6:46Speaker 8: him being young. This year there year older just talked
- 6:49Speaker 8: about the game was competitive against Barnstol a good Barnstall team.
- 6:52Speaker 8: I don't know when these kids got hurt, and you know,
- 6:54Speaker 8: it's a great opportunity for those kids to get their
- 6:56Speaker 8: first win. And it's great for them to get it
- 6:58Speaker 8: early in the season and not weak nine or week ten,
- 7:01Speaker 8: you know, where you know the season is pretty much done.
- 7:03Speaker 8: So you know, this could turn around their season right here.
- 7:06Speaker 8: I mean, they get a win and get some confidence.
- 7:08Speaker 8: I don't care who you're playing.
- 7:09Speaker 5: Yeah, win win. I mean, coaches, you know, winning, winning
- 7:12Speaker 5: can be contagious. So this needs to be a really
- 7:14Speaker 5: big game for Caney Valley. They need to have the
- 7:17Speaker 5: mentality of going in that hey week two. Obviously Barnstall
- 7:21Speaker 5: is a tough, tough opponent. They need to go get
- 7:24Speaker 5: this win.
- 7:24Speaker 4: Yeah, Evan Offhan, do you know who Kenny Valley plays
- 7:26Speaker 4: next week.
- 7:27Speaker 3: I don't have that on here. I'd have to look
- 7:29Speaker 3: it up.
- 7:30Speaker 4: I'm just curious they play. Maybe they'll get to it
- 7:32Speaker 4: a row here because.
- 7:33Speaker 3: So Kenny Valley at Hulbert, everyone takes the Trojan. So
- 7:36Speaker 3: let's go to Copen at Foyl. Copen sixty two to
- 7:40Speaker 3: six halftime winner over Midway. How about this Hornets that
- 7:43Speaker 3: scored forty points on their first four offensive plays from scrimmage.
- 7:48Speaker 3: They had to pick six punt return for a touchdown,
- 7:51Speaker 3: three touchdowns offensively, and only one other play on offense.
- 7:55Speaker 3: The first three touchdowns went to Weston Aroriic on his
- 7:58Speaker 3: first three touches, had a rush of thirty four yards
- 8:01Speaker 3: for a touchdown, a rush of forty nine yards for
- 8:03Speaker 3: a touchdown, and then a forty one yard punt return,
- 8:06Speaker 3: So he had three touches and three touchdowns right at
- 8:09Speaker 3: the beginning of the ballgame. Copin beat Foyle a year
- 8:12Speaker 3: ago forty two to nine. They've won the last two
- 8:15Speaker 3: in the series. The Hornets have eighty six to forty
- 8:17Speaker 3: one combined. Foyle did not play last week. They're oh
- 8:20Speaker 3: and oh. Panthers went five and six last year to
- 8:23Speaker 3: make the playoffs in lost to Cato in the first round.
- 8:26Speaker 3: Foyle is in Class B one District threes. They're actually
- 8:30Speaker 3: a classification ahead of Copen this fall. Copan at Foyle.
- 8:35Speaker 6: Well, you guys all listened to this show, know that
- 8:38Speaker 6: we were big Copan fans in this booth, and especially
- 8:43Speaker 6: these last couple of weeks. Been thinking a lot about
- 8:46Speaker 6: coach Foreman and his family. I know they played last
- 8:50Speaker 6: Friday with a heavy heart and will continue to do so,
- 8:55Speaker 6: but man, they really really played well. It sounds like
- 9:00Speaker 6: just trying to do the math on forty points and
- 9:03Speaker 6: only three offensive possessions.
- 9:05Speaker 7: I love that.
- 9:06Speaker 5: Well, think about this. It was forty to nothing and
- 9:08Speaker 5: they had only ran four offensive play That's incredible. So
- 9:13Speaker 5: I'm not a smart guy. I know that's pretty efficient offense.
- 9:16Speaker 5: Pretty efficient.
- 9:17Speaker 7: Yeah, that's how it was.
- 9:19Speaker 6: When the only time I've done radio was with Evan
- 9:23Speaker 6: down at Booker t a couple of years ago when
- 9:25Speaker 6: Barbersville played down there and they returned the opening kickoff
- 9:29Speaker 6: for a touchdown and then kicked off to Bartlesville and
- 9:34Speaker 6: they turned it over on the first play and scored.
- 9:37Speaker 5: Yeah, and then you know.
- 9:39Speaker 6: Touch every time they touched it, they scored. It sounds
- 9:41Speaker 6: like that's what Copine was doing. Yeah, I'm just just
- 9:44Speaker 6: gonna say I think Copine will roll again. I think
- 9:47Speaker 6: they've got a really great and coach Forman corrected us
- 9:52Speaker 6: corrected me last week when I was talking on the
- 9:55Speaker 6: show about all their seniors. They've actually only got a
- 9:57Speaker 6: couple of seniors. All those guys we talk about Shooter
- 10:00Speaker 6: Burrington and all those those guys are all juniors, and.
- 10:03Speaker 7: So they're really dialed in. I'm excited about cop not
- 10:06Speaker 7: up there in Copan.
- 10:08Speaker 5: Well, and they did all that without Woodsworth, who is
- 10:11Speaker 5: a four or is going to be a four year starter. Yeah,
- 10:14Speaker 5: and you know, coach, you know this. Basically he pulled
- 10:18Speaker 5: the starters at half, so those younger kids got some
- 10:21Speaker 5: good experience in that second half.
- 10:22Speaker 4: Yeah, was it not over and half?
- 10:24Speaker 3: It was over and half? Yeah, it was it was
- 10:25Speaker 3: second the second quarter.
- 10:27Speaker 7: Yeah, first half of the game. They played half of the.
- 10:29Speaker 5: Game after the first quarter where they're up. Yeah, nothing incredible.
- 10:33Speaker 5: It's not bad.
- 10:34Speaker 4: You're taking who you're taking.
- 10:35Speaker 5: Oh I'm taking them. Oh you're taking them taking them again.
- 10:38Speaker 8: Well, I I don't think it's going to be a
- 10:41Speaker 8: blowout here, guys, you know, Foil did go five and
- 10:44Speaker 8: six last year and made it to the playoffs. They
- 10:48Speaker 8: do play a class higher, which to me really doesn't
- 10:52Speaker 8: mean a whole lot. But I think I think it's
- 10:57Speaker 8: going to be closer than what we think. And Copin's
- 10:59Speaker 8: going on the road, so I think this is going
- 11:02Speaker 8: to be a really good test for the Hornets. I
- 11:06Speaker 8: think I think they're gonna win, but I think it's
- 11:09Speaker 8: going to be closer than what we think it's going
- 11:10Speaker 8: to be. I think, you know, early in the season,
- 11:13Speaker 8: when you go on that first road game, it's a
- 11:17Speaker 8: little bit different for your kids to adjust to going
- 11:20Speaker 8: on the road, especially the younger, younger ones who you know,
- 11:24Speaker 8: they've never been on a real high school football you know,
- 11:28Speaker 8: bus trip and going into a stadium, and you know,
- 11:31Speaker 8: I don't know what a crowd is in Foyer, Oklahoma,
- 11:33Speaker 8: but where it is full it's over by Chelsea, north
- 11:39Speaker 8: of Claremore, Sequoia right there. So high road sets right there,
- 11:43Speaker 8: I mean, the football field sets right there on the highway,
- 11:46Speaker 8: Highway sixty six, I believe it is way.
- 11:47Speaker 5: Is it north of Claremore Christian School? No? Okay, okay,
- 11:52Speaker 5: Now there's another school in Clairmore.
- 11:55Speaker 4: There's a couple. Yeah, there's a couple more. Yeah, so
- 11:57Speaker 4: and and actually Sequoia is not in Clairemore.
- 12:00Speaker 5: That's true.
- 12:01Speaker 9: Oh that's right. We resolved that.
- 12:02Speaker 4: Last year, so that is true.
- 12:04Speaker 8: But I'm looking for more. I think Copine's gonna win.
- 12:08Speaker 8: They're not going to run roll them.
- 12:10Speaker 4: I think Copenne probably wins by two touchdowns.
- 12:12Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 12:13Speaker 8: I think it's closer this year than what it was
- 12:15Speaker 8: last year, but I think they win by two touch Yeah.
- 12:18Speaker 5: What's good with Copin Obviously they've got some veterans that
- 12:20Speaker 5: they have been on a bunch of bus trips. They
- 12:22Speaker 5: love the road. Last long road trip for the playoff
- 12:25Speaker 5: game last year, so this is going to be nothing
- 12:27Speaker 5: new to him. It's those younger guys like you said
- 12:30Speaker 5: that the first time on Friday nights and maybe the
- 12:32Speaker 5: first time on the school bus to get on the
- 12:34Speaker 5: bus to go on the road on Friday night.
- 12:35Speaker 3: Yeah, all right, everyone takes the hornets at Foyle. Good
- 12:39Speaker 3: luck to Copenn. Coach Foreman Oklahoma Union at Barnsdall. This
- 12:43Speaker 3: is one of our local games this weekend. Cougar's lost
- 12:46Speaker 3: to call Cord last week forty to seven. Most of
- 12:49Speaker 3: that first half was about a two possession game. I
- 12:52Speaker 3: was listening to our assistant sports director Alex Benzagala's interview
- 12:57Speaker 3: with Stephen Tramble some this morning and he mentioned it.
- 13:00Speaker 3: Eventually the damn broke, but it was a somewhat competitive
- 13:04Speaker 3: I think it was twenty to seven and a half
- 13:05Speaker 3: time something like that, and eventually kind of got away
- 13:08Speaker 3: from them. They missed on a couple fourth and shorts
- 13:11Speaker 3: that they had on offense that maybe could have led
- 13:13Speaker 3: to scoring drives, and they were moving the ball. Barnsdall
- 13:16Speaker 3: won to zero. We mentioned a fifty five twelve win
- 13:18Speaker 3: at Keney Valley. Barnsdall, by the way, tip at the
- 13:21Speaker 3: cap to Kylie Sweeney. They got Kenney Valley, Oklahoma Union
- 13:24Speaker 3: and Nowada non district play. It's the way non district
- 13:27Speaker 3: play is supposed to be done, right. Barnsdall's won six
- 13:29Speaker 3: in a row in this series. Last time they played
- 13:32Speaker 3: US twenty seventeen, So the Panthers beat Oklahoma Union from
- 13:35Speaker 3: twenty twelve to twenty seventeen. Last OKAU win came in
- 13:39Speaker 3: twenty eleven. Barnsdall's gone six and three in the series
- 13:42Speaker 3: since two thousand and four. Oklahoma Union going to Barnstall
- 13:47Speaker 3: on Friday.
- 13:48Speaker 8: Night Nighthawk, you were talking about some injuries to Barnstall. Well,
- 13:51Speaker 8: Oklahoma Union also had some injuries as well. They have
- 13:54Speaker 8: they lost their best offensive lineman, defensive lineman. He's team captain,
- 13:59Speaker 8: he was everything. They lost him in a scrimmage out
- 14:04Speaker 8: for the season, senior kind of bad.
- 14:06Speaker 5: Deal scrimmage before the game.
- 14:08Speaker 4: Lit.
- 14:08Speaker 5: Yeah, And I talked to a white hat that did
- 14:10Speaker 5: that game, that Cold Cord Oklahoma Union game, and he
- 14:13Speaker 5: said co Cord is big. He said they were. They
- 14:16Speaker 5: looked like a four A team out there. Is that
- 14:18Speaker 5: they averaged about two thirty across the line. He goes,
- 14:20Speaker 5: they were really big.
- 14:21Speaker 6: Well, and we had heard Cold Cord coming in was
- 14:24Speaker 6: gonna be just really really so I'm actually, you know,
- 14:30Speaker 6: like like you said, Evan, the game sounded competitive for
- 14:33Speaker 6: a while.
- 14:33Speaker 7: I'm proud of Oklahoma Union. We said, guys, they're close.
- 14:37Speaker 8: They also don't have their their best skill player who
- 14:41Speaker 8: plays running back. He's he's out for the first several weeks.
- 14:45Speaker 8: They'll getting back later on the season, but he's out.
- 14:48Speaker 8: So you know, they're they're missing two big, big starters
- 14:52Speaker 8: for them on their team.
- 14:54Speaker 4: One they will get back when they won't. But you
- 14:56Speaker 4: know that that's pretty impressive. Go play Cold Cord and
- 14:59Speaker 4: like they did. Yeah, and uh, you know, without two
- 15:02Speaker 4: of your best players. Now they got to play Barnstall
- 15:04Speaker 4: this week.
- 15:05Speaker 8: Barnstall, we know, no, no, I mean they're they're pretty
- 15:09Speaker 8: good and you said Barnshaw's beat up a little bit,
- 15:13Speaker 8: so maybe it'll be more competitive.
- 15:15Speaker 4: I hope it is. But I do look for Barnstall
- 15:17Speaker 4: to win this game.
- 15:18Speaker 6: So home opener for Barnsdall. We talked last week about
- 15:21Speaker 6: what a big deal that was going to be when
- 15:23Speaker 6: they did it for the community and and everything else.
- 15:27Speaker 6: So I bet it's electric over there this Friday night.
- 15:30Speaker 6: Should be a great atmosphere.
- 15:32Speaker 4: I hope it is.
- 15:33Speaker 6: I hate I hate that both these teams have have
- 15:35Speaker 6: kids they've lost, especially this early in the season. Yeah,
- 15:40Speaker 6: probably a good decision to to shut down the football
- 15:44Speaker 6: season and wait for wrestling. For Easton Malone, he's he's
- 15:48Speaker 6: really really good and probably going to go wrestle at
- 15:51Speaker 6: the Division IE level. So you know, applause to that
- 15:55Speaker 6: kid for for making that difficult decision. I like the
- 15:59Speaker 6: fighting stashes here. I think they're gonna win it. But
- 16:01Speaker 6: I really like where Oklahoma Union is. I think they're
- 16:04Speaker 6: gonna they're gonna win some games this season, so that's exciting.
- 16:09Speaker 5: Yeah. I'm also gonna go Barnstall, and you know, gosh,
- 16:13Speaker 5: you know, I know, injuries are just part of football.
- 16:16Speaker 5: You just hate to have mulpile up week one, especially
- 16:19Speaker 5: with some of your key personnel, especially your for a
- 16:21Speaker 5: couple of your four year starters. H Coach Swiney obviously
- 16:24Speaker 5: has got depth there. So I'm picking Barnstall. I think
- 16:28Speaker 5: it's gonna be electric. I think the football stadium it's
- 16:31Speaker 5: gonna be packed, and I think Oklahoma's got some good
- 16:34Speaker 5: things going. They're just not gonna get them going Week two.
- 16:36Speaker 3: Yeah all right, I did. Oh yeah, okay, sorry, all right,
- 16:42Speaker 3: everyone takes the Panthers at home against Oklahoma Union. Let's
- 16:46Speaker 3: go to some games on the radio this weekend. Bahatska
- 16:50Speaker 3: at home against Meeker Husky. He's got a fifty to
- 16:53Speaker 3: six win on the road at No. Wat of this
- 16:55Speaker 3: past Friday. Score touchdowns first two drives and carries from
- 16:58Speaker 3: Van Wildcat and looked back Bartlesfield transfer Chase Eves couple
- 17:02Speaker 3: second half touchdowns. He had the first three two point conversions.
- 17:06Speaker 3: He was at running back wide receiver. Some Meeker did
- 17:09Speaker 3: not play last week. They're coming off a seven and
- 17:11Speaker 3: five season in two to a last year with the
- 17:14Speaker 3: playoff win. Last time these two schools played nineteen ninety
- 17:18Speaker 3: four ninety five. Meeker won in ninety five. Huskies won
- 17:20Speaker 3: in ninety four. Bahaska trying to go to and zero
- 17:23Speaker 3: to begin the season for the third straight year. Bajasca
- 17:26Speaker 3: first non district game at home against Meeker.
- 17:30Speaker 6: Just to clarify if I could, there's a player the
- 17:34Speaker 6: plays for Pohuska named Van Wildcat.
- 17:37Speaker 3: His brother, who is older, is named Lasharo Wildcat. And
- 17:40Speaker 3: there's another Wildcat brother on this year's Pehuska.
- 17:43Speaker 5: Team too, I believe.
- 17:44Speaker 4: So.
- 17:44Speaker 3: I think they're all three pretty fan athletes.
- 17:47Speaker 7: Van and Lasharo Wildcat.
- 17:49Speaker 3: You got it exactly right.
- 17:50Speaker 6: That makes let me tell you, that makes Shooter Brewington
- 17:54Speaker 6: look like some kind of German name.
- 17:56Speaker 7: That's the greatest thing I've ever heard.
- 17:58Speaker 5: Pretty good. Three carries for nine yards.
- 18:01Speaker 7: Wildcat, Yeah, got that right.
- 18:04Speaker 5: So he got tackled once.
- 18:05Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't think he was touched in those first two.
- 18:09Speaker 3: The first two carries I mentioned, he just popped it
- 18:11Speaker 3: to the far sideline and some.
- 18:13Speaker 5: That's my new favorite name ever. Yeah, you know Pahsca
- 18:17Speaker 5: is that quarterback too. I mean, just look at some
- 18:20Speaker 5: of the stats that came out of that game. Nineteen
- 18:22Speaker 5: of twenty seven for two hundred and eighty seven yards,
- 18:24Speaker 5: four touchdowns at a two point conversion. That's also a
- 18:27Speaker 5: free big fish.
- 18:28Speaker 3: Yeah, that is so And Van Wildcat wasn't even one
- 18:31Speaker 3: that I don't think we had mentioned in some of
- 18:34Speaker 3: the preseason stuff. You know, Canyon Heineman, Lane Kyler obviously,
- 18:38Speaker 3: we talked about Chase Eves after he transferred. Those were
- 18:41Speaker 3: kind of the three main guys, and there's a handful
- 18:43Speaker 3: of others too.
- 18:44Speaker 7: But Van Wildcat came out of nowhere, was it.
- 18:46Speaker 3: That's a younger guy. It's I think, really kind of
- 18:49Speaker 3: producing at the varsity level for.
- 18:50Speaker 4: The first Yeah.
- 18:51Speaker 7: Van Wildcat is well, I'm taking Pahusca.
- 18:58Speaker 6: You know they it's great to get off to a
- 19:01Speaker 6: strong start, but yeah, discovering unknown talent and having them
- 19:06Speaker 6: go crazy is awesome.
- 19:08Speaker 7: Oscar may be really good this year.
- 19:10Speaker 5: Oh, I think they're gonna be really good.
- 19:11Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm taking them.
- 19:14Speaker 4: Well, Pasco was gonna be good.
- 19:17Speaker 8: I mean, they're really good at the skill players without
- 19:19Speaker 8: Chase Eaves and then they add Chase Eaves and yeah,
- 19:21Speaker 8: I mean that's just icing on the cake for him,
- 19:25Speaker 8: and that, like I said that, their speed is just incredible,
- 19:29Speaker 8: and like you were talking about with Wildcat, he got
- 19:32Speaker 8: to the edge and he's gone.
- 19:33Speaker 4: Well.
- 19:34Speaker 8: I saw one where he takes off to the left sideline.
- 19:37Speaker 8: He's running like he's gonna outrun everybody, and all of
- 19:39Speaker 8: a sudden, corner steps up shoots him back the other direction.
- 19:43Speaker 8: He runs all the way by across the field and
- 19:45Speaker 8: goes to scores.
- 19:46Speaker 4: Kid can play. He's good, and that's what he's got
- 19:50Speaker 4: to be a sophomore.
- 19:51Speaker 3: I think. So I don't remember off the top my head.
- 19:53Speaker 4: I'm sure he is. I'm sure he is. So that's impressive.
- 19:56Speaker 8: Also, Hyman had a game what we would expect, you know, uh,
- 20:01Speaker 8: going in the second year starting played very well. I
- 20:05Speaker 8: did say one. I did see one play that I
- 20:07Speaker 8: would like to address that where he was running through
- 20:11Speaker 8: the ball, running towards Pusk's sideline. Kid from No Water
- 20:14Speaker 8: just blatantly shoved.
- 20:17Speaker 4: Him in the back and it was bad. I mean,
- 20:19Speaker 4: he seriously could have got hurt. You know.
- 20:21Speaker 8: I didn't want to say you know, Ironman need to
- 20:23Speaker 8: be better, way more disciplined than that. I'm sure he
- 20:27Speaker 8: was flagged. I'm sure coach jub got all over him.
- 20:30Speaker 8: But you know that's that can get somebody hurt early
- 20:33Speaker 8: in the season, and there's no need of doing that.
- 20:35Speaker 8: So I did want to. I did see the video.
- 20:37Speaker 8: If you saw the video, it was not it wasn't good.
- 20:40Speaker 4: So be better. No water. Uh, Huska gonna roll Meeker,
- 20:45Speaker 4: not even gonna be close.
- 20:47Speaker 8: Uh.
- 20:47Speaker 4: Meeker cannot keep up with speed of the Huskies.
- 20:50Speaker 3: Uh.
- 20:51Speaker 8: I want to see Pusky's defense, though, get tested a
- 20:53Speaker 8: little bit.
- 20:54Speaker 4: I think that would be good.
- 20:55Speaker 8: Yeah, you know, so I don't think it's gonna happen
- 20:57Speaker 8: against Meeker, but I want to see him get tested.
- 20:59Speaker 9: Speak of testing, Worre's Meeker.
- 21:02Speaker 4: Meeker is by steal water.
- 21:04Speaker 5: This guy and their mascot.
- 21:06Speaker 8: Bulldogs really yeah they are. They're black and white, just
- 21:11Speaker 8: like Perkins Perkins Demons, okay and stuff. Beautiful stadium of Parkins, Sure, Parkins.
- 21:18Speaker 7: How's the track?
- 21:19Speaker 6: You know we mentioned last week that there was a
- 21:21Speaker 6: new track.
- 21:22Speaker 9: Possibly there was.
- 21:23Speaker 4: I saw Locus Grove and Locus Grove reyturfer Field too.
- 21:27Speaker 4: I watched it on kW n K TV, and.
- 21:29Speaker 5: I think Clamore's got new turf during the off season.
- 21:32Speaker 4: Did they do they have a new track?
- 21:33Speaker 5: Probably not, No, they don't have room for that. Okay, boy,
- 21:39Speaker 5: coach Heennessey is he the Lincoln Riley of high school
- 21:41Speaker 5: football in northeast Oklahoma. He keeps producing his quarterbacks and
- 21:45Speaker 5: they come out. I mean he's at a track record
- 21:47Speaker 5: that it's not by accident that he gets some quarterbacks
- 21:51Speaker 5: and he develops them and they become really efficient. A
- 21:55Speaker 5: lot of speed on POSCO, A lot of speed. I
- 21:57Speaker 5: mean that's the thing that just jumps out at you.
- 21:59Speaker 5: A bunch of athletes defensively, like you, I want to
- 22:03Speaker 5: see them get tested. I think with their team speed,
- 22:07Speaker 5: I think their defense is going to play really really
- 22:09Speaker 5: well as well. But yeah, I'm taking Bosca. I think
- 22:12Speaker 5: they're going to roll them.
- 22:13Speaker 6: Thank you Evan for going back to do the research
- 22:16Speaker 6: to find that they played back in the nineties. That's
- 22:18Speaker 6: deep level research right there.
- 22:19Speaker 3: That is Yeah. Yeah, yeah, I was really impressed. I
- 22:22Speaker 3: got a chance to go to that Beehuska game because
- 22:24Speaker 3: Bartlesville played on on Thursday night, so it's always nice
- 22:27Speaker 3: to see one of the other schools since I don't
- 22:29Speaker 3: get a chance to see him in person a lot,
- 22:31Speaker 3: and yeah, you can just it's one of those deals
- 22:33Speaker 3: when you and know Wada looks a lot better than
- 22:36Speaker 3: they've looked the last five years, right, I mean we
- 22:38Speaker 3: talked about that with coach Juby and then winning four
- 22:40Speaker 3: seasons ago, and they look put together. They have some
- 22:43Speaker 3: bigger guys, they have some some athletes or whatever, but
- 22:45Speaker 3: Pehuska is just it's on another level the way that
- 22:49Speaker 3: they look when they take the field. You can there's
- 22:52Speaker 3: certain times where you think the game's over before it's
- 22:54Speaker 3: been played, and they just look organized, big, athletic, confident,
- 23:00Speaker 3: all that stuff. I mean, it just did the It
- 23:03Speaker 3: stood out to me just watching them warm up.
- 23:05Speaker 5: It wasn't it. Yeah it was.
- 23:09Speaker 3: And it was a good crowd there on both sides too,
- 23:11Speaker 3: So uh yeah, that was a good ballgame on on Friday.
- 23:14Speaker 3: I got to be running clock toward the I think
- 23:16Speaker 3: middle part of the third quarter. But I mean, and
- 23:18Speaker 3: no one had some moments and we'll talk about the
- 23:20Speaker 3: Ironman in a second, but anyway, Yeah, Bahuska and Meeker
- 23:23Speaker 3: and everyone picked I think right, yes, everyone took the Huskies.
- 23:26Speaker 3: No WADA on the road at Warner mentioned Ironman tough
- 23:30Speaker 3: night against Bahusca again fifty to six. Is that final
- 23:33Speaker 3: had a couple first downs first half. Thought Trevor Emberson
- 23:36Speaker 3: was really good. Adrian O'Dell Asia Saxton both had some moments.
- 23:40Speaker 3: All those guys looked really good in a jersey. Emmerson
- 23:43Speaker 3: to Sebastian Brown with a nice over the shoulder deep
- 23:46Speaker 3: ball was their only touchdown. Warner, coming off a three
- 23:50Speaker 3: and seven season a year ago, obviously did not play
- 23:52Speaker 3: last week. They're oh and oh. Eagles are coached by
- 23:55Speaker 3: Kate Sherwood, who was the third coach in the fast
- 23:58Speaker 3: four years at Warner. I think Raye Watkins might have
- 24:00Speaker 3: been their head coach last year or two years ago.
- 24:03Speaker 4: I'm pretty sure. I don't know.
- 24:04Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that that's right anyway, That's why I
- 24:06Speaker 3: looked that up. That coach Sherwood's new there. So yeah,
- 24:09Speaker 3: three coaches in four years, No WATA at Warner. By
- 24:12Speaker 3: the way, that Bahaska Meeker Game Sports Talk ninety nine
- 24:15Speaker 3: point one FM, KPGM KPg MTV dot com. Uh, we
- 24:19Speaker 3: will have coverage of Dewey on KRAP We'll talk about
- 24:22Speaker 3: the Bulldoggers in a second and no radio coverage for
- 24:24Speaker 3: No Wada Warner on Friday night.
- 24:27Speaker 7: Some good names here too, guys. We got a good
- 24:30Speaker 7: year going here.
- 24:31Speaker 5: It's awesome.
- 24:33Speaker 4: Uh.
- 24:33Speaker 7: And you know, just the most normal name of all
- 24:37Speaker 7: this is Sebastian Brown and that's a great one.
- 24:40Speaker 4: Uh.
- 24:41Speaker 6: I know we were I know we were a little
- 24:43Speaker 6: tough on no WATA last week. Rev is gonna probably
- 24:46Speaker 6: have some follow up on on that make an announcement
- 24:49Speaker 6: about about some things we're trying to do here.
- 24:51Speaker 9: But I like the Ironmen here. I know they're going
- 24:56Speaker 9: to Warner.
- 24:58Speaker 6: But I think the the Puhusca game last week was
- 25:01Speaker 6: probably a good opportunity for them to learn some stuff
- 25:04Speaker 6: about themselves, work on some things this week as a team,
- 25:09Speaker 6: and get it put together against probably a little more
- 25:13Speaker 6: close competition.
- 25:14Speaker 9: Than they were facing with Puhusca.
- 25:16Speaker 6: So I think it'll be a much better game and
- 25:19Speaker 6: I look for No Water to put it together.
- 25:20Speaker 5: I like where they are. Yeah, I also like know
- 25:24Speaker 5: WATA this week and talk a little bit about last
- 25:26Speaker 5: week's game. You know, even coach Tennessee, I read one
- 25:30Speaker 5: of his interviews that he gave a lot of credit
- 25:33Speaker 5: to know Whatater for being a lot more physical in
- 25:36Speaker 5: the game than what they have in the past. And
- 25:40Speaker 5: you've got to look at they Pasca ran forty offensive
- 25:43Speaker 5: plays in the first half, and that's intended quick offense,
- 25:49Speaker 5: quick snaps, you know, fifteen seventeen seconds between plays. And
- 25:56Speaker 5: coach Tennessee, you know, conditioning is a big deal with him.
- 25:58Speaker 5: He wants to wear teams out the second half. And
- 26:01Speaker 5: I think you saw that, you know, the first half,
- 26:02Speaker 5: second half. I think they just got worn out. I
- 26:05Speaker 5: think they're a young team, but I think that they're
- 26:08Speaker 5: definitely gonna I think they're gonna win this week. And
- 26:10Speaker 5: I think there's gonna be some kind of like we've
- 26:12Speaker 5: talked in the path, they're gonna be better than what
- 26:13Speaker 5: they were last year, and they had a good year
- 26:15Speaker 5: last year.
- 26:15Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 26:16Speaker 8: Yeah, they're playing more aggressive, which is fantastic because that
- 26:22Speaker 8: means they're playing with more confidence. And I'm sure you
- 26:25Speaker 8: know last week was the first game and they're playing
- 26:28Speaker 8: Bahusca and they know how good Pask is and everybody
- 26:32Speaker 8: was excited, a large crowd, like Evan said, everybody was
- 26:35Speaker 8: fired up, and you know, they they just got out athleted.
- 26:40Speaker 4: That's it. I mean, just reality.
- 26:42Speaker 8: Sometimes they're a lot faster than you are, and you know,
- 26:45Speaker 8: you just try to eat the clock and get out
- 26:46Speaker 8: of there healthy.
- 26:47Speaker 4: And I hope they did this week.
- 26:51Speaker 8: Like you said, you know, their second game, they're going
- 26:55Speaker 8: on the road to Warner Warners had three coaches in
- 26:59Speaker 8: the last four years. There's all that nonsense, blah blah blah.
- 27:02Speaker 8: This is a great opportunity for the Ironman to get
- 27:05Speaker 8: the first win of the season, play within themselves and
- 27:08Speaker 8: play like they're like they're gonna play the rest of
- 27:10Speaker 8: the season and improve each week going forward. Uh, they'll
- 27:14Speaker 8: take a big step this week as far as improving.
- 27:17Speaker 8: It always happens after your first game. So I think
- 27:20Speaker 8: they do go on the road, they do get their
- 27:22Speaker 8: first win, and this is a non district game, yes, okay,
- 27:28Speaker 8: so you know they should get this easy.
- 27:31Speaker 6: Well, and this is probably a good opportunity for us
- 27:34Speaker 6: to acknowledge that we I don't know if it's a
- 27:38Speaker 6: new listener or not, but we know for sure that
- 27:40Speaker 6: we've got the City of No Wata, you know.
- 27:44Speaker 9: Listening to the show.
- 27:46Speaker 6: I hope that they have it played in the City

- 27:58Speaker 6: the to the show and ed you know that that

- 29:00Speaker 7: Watching it happen.
- 29:01Speaker 5: That's right.

- 29:04Speaker 8: about what would Adam Hooper say, what would Trenton say?
- 29:08Speaker 4: You know, it would just be like, oh my gosh,
- 29:11Speaker 4: are you kidding me?
- 29:13Speaker 6: Got on those two great guys and get it back.
- 29:17Speaker 3: So no wada at Warner. Let's go to the next
- 29:20Speaker 3: one on KRIG one O four point nine kreg tv
- 29:23Speaker 3: dot Com. Dewey against Perkins Tryon Bulldoggers. Tough night at
- 29:27Speaker 3: Locus Grove lost fifty to twenty three. Did score seventeen
- 29:31Speaker 3: points in the second half. Easton Davis found Cooper Wood
- 29:34Speaker 3: and Evan Propper for a couple of touchdowns. The Perkins
- 29:37Speaker 3: Tryon did not play last week. Demons went eleven and two.
- 29:41Speaker 3: Last year they were in the three A semifinals, lost
- 29:44Speaker 3: to Lincoln Christian In that playoff ball game. They were
- 29:48Speaker 3: turned seven starters off that team. Dewey one and one
- 29:51Speaker 3: against Perkins their last two matchups in two thousand and
- 29:54Speaker 3: eight and two thousand and nine home game for Dewey
- 29:57Speaker 3: against Perkins Tryon. When did Perkins Perkins Tryon?
- 30:01Speaker 4: Oh jeez, long time yeah, long time ago.
- 30:05Speaker 7: Whenever Oklahoma first started school consolidation.
- 30:08Speaker 4: I mean it was yeah, a long time gotcha.
- 30:10Speaker 8: That was the first place I've ever seen high school
- 30:14Speaker 8: a high school ref wear a headset and talk over
- 30:18Speaker 8: the loud speaker.
- 30:19Speaker 4: No way, oh yeah pretty oh yeah, but the button
- 30:22Speaker 4: talked over the Yeah, that's big time.
- 30:24Speaker 5: When he talked, you mean like calling out the penalty.
- 30:26Speaker 5: Oh yeah, yeah, like number really.
- 30:30Speaker 4: Oh yeah, we've got him.
- 30:32Speaker 6: We've got ref mikes Aaron Barts. Well, the refs just
- 30:34Speaker 6: don't want to use them.
- 30:36Speaker 3: It happens on A I've been to a few six
- 30:38Speaker 3: A games where they've done it, but number a minute.
- 30:39Speaker 6: Yeah, every game we set them out up there and
- 30:42Speaker 6: asked the refs if they want them in that wild.
- 30:45Speaker 5: That is wild. You know your stories, that's like your hundred.
- 30:48Speaker 5: It's younger than me. It is the reason to do this.
- 30:50Speaker 3: Say, we don't have time.
- 30:52Speaker 4: But someday I'll tell you about the time that.
- 30:55Speaker 8: We blew an eight point lead, oh no, with about
- 31:00Speaker 8: nineteen seconds stuff at at Perkins and winning over time
- 31:05Speaker 8: and got was that before try on?
- 31:08Speaker 4: No, No, it's been perkinstrung the Demons years. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
- 31:13Speaker 4: we blew it. Lloyd Workman Daves, they had football coach
- 31:16Speaker 4: here in week nine.
- 31:18Speaker 8: We had to be end up having to beat berry
- 31:20Speaker 8: Hill in week ten to go to the playoffs.
- 31:23Speaker 6: So living in still Water as long as we did,
- 31:24Speaker 6: and having Perkins, you know, right there close and try
- 31:27Speaker 6: On right there close. You know what ends up happening
- 31:32Speaker 6: at at Perkins is kids. You know that from still
- 31:36Speaker 6: Water and Perry and some of these other places that
- 31:38Speaker 6: get frustrated or aren't seeing the playing time or whatever,
- 31:42Speaker 6: end up a lot of times transferring down to play
- 31:44Speaker 6: for Perkins Tryon.
- 31:46Speaker 7: And they're good.
- 31:47Speaker 6: This is going to be a really really rough night,
- 31:50Speaker 6: I think for Dewey and and you know, they're going
- 31:54Speaker 6: up against a legitimate state title hopeful and they're usually
- 32:00Speaker 6: they're usually fast, they got good athletes. It's gonna be
- 32:04Speaker 6: a tough night. But let's talk about the fact that
- 32:06Speaker 6: Dewey has Cooper Wood on their team. Yeah, you know,
- 32:10Speaker 6: how did Night Night get another year of eligibility?
- 32:13Speaker 7: I thought he was over at Marting going to college.
- 32:15Speaker 3: Wanted to deple check that when I saw it, thought
- 32:17Speaker 3: the same thing.
- 32:18Speaker 4: Well, do we.
- 32:20Speaker 6: Know have we heard anything about how it went for
- 32:23Speaker 6: the Bulldoggers? You know, having been watching practice a little bit,
- 32:26Speaker 6: I didn't get.
- 32:26Speaker 7: Any updates on their game last week.
- 32:28Speaker 8: I watched it, but all at night Hall Night Hawk
- 32:31Speaker 8: go ahead. But I went back and replayed the game one. Well,
- 32:34Speaker 8: I'm taking Perkins try on.
- 32:35Speaker 6: As bad as I'd love for Dewey to be competitive
- 32:37Speaker 6: in this game, it's gonna be tough.
- 32:39Speaker 5: Yeah, I agree with you, badge that I think Perkins is.
- 32:43Speaker 5: I think they're a pretty good dang team. I think
- 32:45Speaker 5: last year they were in the semi finals, and I
- 32:48Speaker 5: think they brought back a bunch from that squad, So
- 32:51Speaker 5: I think it's gonna be another tough night for Dewey.
- 32:54Speaker 5: Good news is it's still a non conference, it's a
- 32:57Speaker 5: non district, so that means that you know, that younger
- 33:00Speaker 5: team has got a chance to get a little bit
- 33:02Speaker 5: better before they get into the district play.
- 33:05Speaker 8: Yeah, they got beat by Lincoln Christian who won the
- 33:07Speaker 8: state championship, who was really really good. Yeah, who beat
- 33:10Speaker 8: Chilo Christian who played for the state championship over in Arkansas.
- 33:14Speaker 8: So yeah, they're good and they get just about everybody back.
- 33:17Speaker 8: But last week I told you guys, if the Bulldoggers
- 33:21Speaker 8: do not run the football seventy percent of the time,
- 33:23Speaker 8: they're not gonna win.
- 33:25Speaker 4: And that theory was proven Friday night they threw it.
- 33:28Speaker 4: I went back.
- 33:29Speaker 8: Oh gosh, yes, I went back and watched the first half.
- 33:32Speaker 8: Didn't watch the second half because the game was you know,
- 33:34Speaker 8: it's forty two to nothing, and it was bad. But
- 33:38Speaker 8: let me give you a prime example. Twenty eight to nothing.
- 33:42Speaker 8: Perkins kicks off due gets balled about I don't know
- 33:45Speaker 8: the thirty somewhere around in there.
- 33:46Speaker 9: No Locus scrup no Dewey.
- 33:48Speaker 8: Oh not perkinct I do, I say, Perkins, I'm sorry,
- 33:51Speaker 8: Locus Scrove kicks off. Do he gets balled somewhere around
- 33:54Speaker 8: thirty it's twenty eight to nothing. Do he runs counter
- 33:56Speaker 8: of Reid Easton, pulls it eleven yards, go back, run counter,
- 34:01Speaker 8: read again, hands the counter, gain about ten to eleven yards.
- 34:04Speaker 8: Another first down, go back.
- 34:06Speaker 4: It looked like to maybe it was an inside zone
- 34:08Speaker 4: or something that they ran though.
- 34:10Speaker 8: Running back is good, guys, he is I like watching,
- 34:12Speaker 8: Oh good? And he hits it up in there.
- 34:15Speaker 4: Another first down, So now they're out of somewhere around.
- 34:19Speaker 5: The thirty five to forty somewhere around in there.
- 34:22Speaker 8: Then they try to throw some outside screen incomplete second
- 34:25Speaker 8: down sack, third down sack. Now it's fourth and forever
- 34:32Speaker 8: they think about going for it.
- 34:33Speaker 4: They jump off sides. They got upon it. Oh Man,
- 34:36Speaker 4: run the ball. You just got first down. You know.
- 34:39Speaker 8: Coach do Beck and I we s argue about this
- 34:41Speaker 8: all the time, you know, cause I'm big.
- 34:43Speaker 4: Run the ball, run the ball, run the ball. And
- 34:45Speaker 4: he liked to throw it around a little bit. I'll
- 34:46Speaker 4: tell you story.
- 34:48Speaker 8: One time we were just running it right down beneda
- 34:51Speaker 8: hornet's throat and Coach Ruble, defensive coordinator, said, don't you
- 34:55Speaker 8: dare throw that ball in the air. And coach Heinley,
- 34:57Speaker 8: he was calling place and down Chaneley and I hear
- 35:02Speaker 8: he's gonna throw the ball and he did.
- 35:04Speaker 4: Yeah, they intercept it.
- 35:06Speaker 7: Yeah, of course, run the ball.
- 35:10Speaker 9: Mulldoggers.
- 35:11Speaker 4: You've got your offensive lineman are are big kids.
- 35:15Speaker 5: It's hard to pass pro it is. What do you
- 35:18Speaker 5: think there's something about some offensive coordinators that they and
- 35:22Speaker 5: so a story about running and passing. Twenty ten at Union,
- 35:27Speaker 5: we're up nineteen points at half. Our quarterback ran for
- 35:29Speaker 5: one hundred and ninety five yards. How many carries you
- 35:32Speaker 5: think you got the second half? Uh three? We think
- 35:36Speaker 5: about it. So we get beat for the conference title,
- 35:40Speaker 5: to hosts two playoffs.
- 35:41Speaker 4: Why and yeah, throw the ball. Yeah, I don't don't.
- 35:47Speaker 4: I don't understand it.
- 35:48Speaker 5: Running our quarterback. We were thinking he's going to get
- 35:50Speaker 5: three three hundred and fifty yards plus it runs a
- 35:52Speaker 5: clock exactly, so we got beat as time expired on
- 35:56Speaker 5: a kick. It's a forty six yard kick.
- 35:58Speaker 7: Was it?
- 35:58Speaker 4: Was?
- 35:59Speaker 7: It incredible as light and play?
- 36:02Speaker 9: Who who was the running back?
- 36:03Speaker 7: Ref?
- 36:03Speaker 5: No?
- 36:04Speaker 8: It was no, No, it wasn't. Gosh, I can't remember
- 36:08Speaker 8: the kids. If somebody said it, I'd say, yes, that's him, but.
- 36:12Speaker 4: They can run it.
- 36:13Speaker 8: But Easton Davis he looked really good. He got himself
- 36:16Speaker 8: out of some situations and he's just athletic and he
- 36:20Speaker 8: can running. No, No, that was playing running back for
- 36:25Speaker 8: the Bulldoggers. Yeah, no, it was. It was a different kid.
- 36:28Speaker 8: I'll look it up here, Well you find out who
- 36:31Speaker 8: it is. But uh, it was a different kid. But
- 36:35Speaker 8: they but they've got what it takes up front, you know.
- 36:38Speaker 8: I know those they say, well we can't we can't
- 36:42Speaker 8: run block.
- 36:43Speaker 4: Oh bull crap.
- 36:44Speaker 8: It's easier to teach run blocking than it is to pasketball.
- 36:47Speaker 8: And not to mention, you got your a quarterback that
- 36:51Speaker 8: played receiver last year and you've got good skill players.
- 36:55Speaker 8: It's a heck of a lot easier to hand that
- 36:57Speaker 8: skill player of the ball than it is to throw
- 36:58Speaker 8: it out there and have him catch. So it's just
- 37:02Speaker 8: it's silly. Once again, if they do not run the
- 37:05Speaker 8: football seventy percent of the time, they're not gonna win.
- 37:08Speaker 8: I'm hands down, it's not gonna happen. And that thirty
- 37:11Speaker 8: percent of the time that you throw the ball.
- 37:13Speaker 4: It better be play action or it's for vert throw
- 37:16Speaker 4: it as far as you can. Hope the heck they
- 37:17Speaker 4: go catch or vert go get it, Yeah, go get it.
- 37:21Speaker 5: Was just so that is for vertical past routes going deep.
- 37:26Speaker 4: That's right, we're gonna throw it deep and hope something happens.
- 37:29Speaker 7: Well, maybe they'll listen to you, coach Revart, I hope so.
- 37:32Speaker 8: But this week they need to get out of here healthy.
- 37:36Speaker 8: You know what's sad is they should be playing either Vaneda,
- 37:41Speaker 8: know what of van Ada or FAHSCA. And now they're
- 37:43Speaker 8: going to a team that went eleven and two last
- 37:46Speaker 8: year and got beat by the state champion.
- 37:48Speaker 4: Good thinking, everybody, horrible idea. So anyways, we'll move on.
- 37:52Speaker 8: Actually, they're at home, so it's home over, so all
- 37:54Speaker 8: you Bulldogger fans, let's get out and support them.
- 37:56Speaker 5: Yep.
- 37:57Speaker 4: God let's get out and support those kids.
- 37:59Speaker 3: Bartleville on the road or Bartlesville on the road at
- 38:02Speaker 3: Clairmore Bruins oh to one lost the Newcastle last week
- 38:06Speaker 3: forty nine to twenty four. Was an interesting ball game.
- 38:09Speaker 3: Got behind fourteen to nothing, throw a pick and they're
- 38:12Speaker 3: inside their own thirty five. Looked like they're gonna be
- 38:15Speaker 3: down twenty one to nothing almost as soon as the
- 38:17Speaker 3: game started, and then Damian Nico got an interception. All
- 38:20Speaker 3: of a sudden, the Bruins reel off three scores in
- 38:22Speaker 3: a row. They led sixteen to fourteen at halftime after
- 38:26Speaker 3: they had really dominated probably the last fifteen minutes of
- 38:29Speaker 3: the first half, and then didn't really do anything from
- 38:32Speaker 3: that point on, ended up giving up twenty eight unanswered
- 38:36Speaker 3: something of that nature. Bartlesville facing Clairemore seventh consecutive year
- 38:40Speaker 3: past six years was the season opener. Clairemore won its
- 38:43Speaker 3: second ever matchup against the Bruins last year twenty eight
- 38:46Speaker 3: to twenty seven. Bartlesville, if you remember, took a late
- 38:50Speaker 3: six point lead, missed a pat and then Claimore would
- 38:53Speaker 3: have tied it up because they made the pat. That
- 38:56Speaker 3: was the difference in the ballgame. Won it by a
- 38:58Speaker 3: single point. Prior to Live lost, the Bruins had won
- 39:01Speaker 3: four in a row in the series. They were district
- 39:04Speaker 3: mates at eighth nine, twenty fourteen, twenty fifteen. All the
- 39:08Speaker 3: other matchups have been in non district play. Clairemore did
- 39:11Speaker 3: not play last week, and the Zebras have I think
- 39:15Speaker 3: two starters back on offense and five on defense from
- 39:19Speaker 3: a eleven win team a year ago. So not a
- 39:22Speaker 3: ton back, but they were I think unexpectedly one of
- 39:25Speaker 3: the best teams in five A a year ago. Bartlesville
- 39:29Speaker 3: on the road at Claremore.
- 39:31Speaker 5: Can we back up the Dewey? I just have a question.
- 39:33Speaker 4: Okay, since it's.
- 39:35Speaker 5: Home opener, how come that field runs east and west
- 39:39Speaker 5: when ninety nine percent of the fields go north and south?
- 39:41Speaker 4: Is the history and that was the only place they
- 39:43Speaker 4: could put it.
- 39:44Speaker 5: Okay, that's it.
- 39:45Speaker 8: You know, I had the old field that went north
- 39:46Speaker 8: and south along the highway now and then they wanted
- 39:48Speaker 8: to move it. So they had they were between the
- 39:51Speaker 8: baseball field and that middle school gym, and they didn't
- 39:54Speaker 8: have enough room for the stadium to go north and south.
- 39:56Speaker 5: Maybe tell Bay Talk, you know, we get behind the
- 39:58Speaker 5: city there and let's just change that because that drives
- 40:00Speaker 5: me crazy every time I.
- 40:03Speaker 4: No issue Easton.
- 40:04Speaker 7: It's one of only like seven in the country.
- 40:06Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yeah, anyway, sorry, that's a good.
- 40:11Speaker 9: That's a great question.
- 40:12Speaker 4: Night.
- 40:12Speaker 7: Listen, there are no Hey.
- 40:15Speaker 5: I didn't know that most fields run north and south.
- 40:17Speaker 6: They're gonna look it up now, they're gonna they're gonna
- 40:19Speaker 6: test me.
- 40:20Speaker 8: This is also about education, educating our listeners. That's what
- 40:24Speaker 8: this program does exactly. Yeah, we help the people. We
- 40:29Speaker 8: are program.
- 40:30Speaker 7: Yes, yeah, I watched.
- 40:33Speaker 6: This game and uh, you know, the great thing about
- 40:37Speaker 6: k w o N TV dot com is being able
- 40:39Speaker 6: to listen to Olevan and Kyle Poole and be able.
- 40:42Speaker 7: To watch the action as it comes to you.
- 40:45Speaker 6: Uh, we need to we need to probably work on
- 40:48Speaker 6: our camera work a little bit.
- 40:50Speaker 9: It was a tough night.
- 40:51Speaker 6: Uh, but I think we can get her fixed, and
- 40:54Speaker 6: I think it's gonna be great.
- 40:55Speaker 3: Open seat in the car batch, I'm happy to happy.
- 40:59Speaker 6: To uh a disaster that would be that would be
- 41:04Speaker 6: well see now you got me.
- 41:05Speaker 7: Now you're trying me here.
- 41:07Speaker 4: And where you are?
- 41:08Speaker 8: All right, exactly, yeah, there you go do it here.
- 41:12Speaker 3: It's exactly what I'm doing.
- 41:13Speaker 6: Okay, all right, Well, either way, it was a weird start,
- 41:18Speaker 6: and I thought the same thing you did, Evan. I thought,
- 41:22Speaker 6: Holy Moses, they're about to go down twenty one nothing.
- 41:24Speaker 6: This is absolutely disastrous.
- 41:27Speaker 7: And then they look really good.
- 41:29Speaker 6: They were they were clean and crisp, and you you wondered,
- 41:34Speaker 6: what in the heck was happening before.
- 41:35Speaker 3: This if they're probably gonna win by like three touchdowns.
- 41:38Speaker 3: I really did think that they really should have been
- 41:40Speaker 3: up by ten.
- 41:41Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 41:42Speaker 9: I thought they're They're gonna.
- 41:43Speaker 6: Absolutely put it to these guys. And then it was,
- 41:46Speaker 6: and then the second half it was It was bizarre.
- 41:49Speaker 6: I mean, I just couldn't figure out. They just could
- 41:52Speaker 6: not do anything.
- 41:55Speaker 7: It was strange.
- 41:57Speaker 6: There's still some some discipline issues here that we've got
- 42:01Speaker 6: to work through. I was I was hoping in year
- 42:04Speaker 6: three under coach right that that those would kind of
- 42:07Speaker 6: resolve themselves. But maybe that's just gonna be the personality
- 42:12Speaker 6: of his squads and that and that's all right, but
- 42:15Speaker 6: but it's it's tough for him. A lot of penalty
- 42:18Speaker 6: yards and frankly, on on Nico's first touchdown, they probably
- 42:23Speaker 6: could have called him for an unsportsman like that might
- 42:26Speaker 6: have cost him the score because he started walking at
- 42:29Speaker 6: about the three, but you know the hopefully they'll clean
- 42:34Speaker 6: that stuff up. This is a really big opportunity for
- 42:37Speaker 6: the Bruins here.
- 42:38Speaker 4: Okay, you go to.
- 42:39Speaker 6: A really tough Newcastle opponent, you get punched in the mouth,
- 42:43Speaker 6: and now you've got to turn around and play a
- 42:45Speaker 6: really good Claremore team and they have an opportunity here
- 42:48Speaker 6: to turn their season around. I really believe that in
- 42:51Speaker 6: game two, and you know, I think they can. But
- 42:56Speaker 6: they're gonna have to play discipline, they're gonna have to
- 42:59Speaker 6: play hard, and they're gonna have to do what.
- 43:02Speaker 4: They do well.
- 43:02Speaker 6: And those are some things that all three of those things.
- 43:05Speaker 9: They struggled with at times last week.
- 43:07Speaker 6: I'm taking the Bruins because I really do believe in
- 43:10Speaker 6: I mean, I believe in coach right. But it's gonna
- 43:12Speaker 6: be a tough night and they're gonna they're gonna have
- 43:14Speaker 6: to do everything right.
- 43:16Speaker 4: Would you like me to go well.
- 43:18Speaker 5: I thought we had it. Okay, you go last on, Dewey,
- 43:20Speaker 5: I can see that far.
- 43:21Speaker 4: That's right, that's right, that's right. Okay.
- 43:25Speaker 8: I I think that you guys were watching a different
- 43:29Speaker 8: game than I was, because what I witnessed was Newcastle
- 43:36Speaker 8: just cramming it down their throat for two touchdowns, for
- 43:38Speaker 8: three touchdowns because they went up. They scored that third
- 43:42Speaker 8: touchdown and it got called back about a forty yard
- 43:45Speaker 8: run and it got called back.
- 43:47Speaker 4: And then next thing you.
- 43:48Speaker 8: Know, Bartisville gets picked those a deep scores touchdowns seven
- 43:52Speaker 8: is fourteen seven.
- 43:53Speaker 5: Instead of running the ball again.
- 43:54Speaker 4: Exactly, they just ran for forty yard touchdown. Don't hand
- 43:58Speaker 4: it off to the same kid, do it again. And
- 44:00Speaker 4: they were just just crawled down.
- 44:02Speaker 3: Only that, but they threw it with a wildcat quarterback,
- 44:05Speaker 3: that's right.
- 44:05Speaker 4: Yeah, they kept taking that kid out.
- 44:07Speaker 3: And in the wildcat quarterback was good running the football.
- 44:11Speaker 3: And we talked, Kyle and I talked about it. Right then,
- 44:13Speaker 3: you had been chunking eight ten, twelve, seven, eight yards
- 44:18Speaker 3: at the times with those two guys. And then they
- 44:20Speaker 3: brought in They're running their wide receiver to throw the
- 44:23Speaker 3: ball for some reason, and that battle they turned the
- 44:26Speaker 3: That was.
- 44:27Speaker 6: Just to be clear, wildcat position not related to van wildcat,
- 44:31Speaker 6: that's true.
- 44:32Speaker 4: That's true.
- 44:33Speaker 8: But then Bartsville finds himself back in the game. You know,
- 44:36Speaker 8: in the second quarter, they find themselves back in the game.
- 44:39Speaker 8: You know, got a couple turnovers ends up ended up
- 44:42Speaker 8: scoring MAGA sixteen fourteen second half. I believe it was
- 44:48Speaker 8: middle of the fourth quarter before Bartsville got a first
- 44:52Speaker 8: down besides two that were via penalties, Is that correct?
- 44:57Speaker 8: I mean it went in't close, all right, So it
- 45:01Speaker 8: wasn't even close in my mind, I mean it was
- 45:03Speaker 8: they were lucky to have it as close as what
- 45:05Speaker 8: they it was at halftime because they were not stopping Newcastle.
- 45:09Speaker 4: It wasn't happening.
- 45:10Speaker 8: And now why did this happen? You cannot play five
- 45:18Speaker 8: freshmen at any level from class to A up and
- 45:24Speaker 8: win a game, especially six A. I mean, and they
- 45:28Speaker 8: they either started or got considerable amount of playing time.
- 45:33Speaker 8: And so there were five freshmen and one one was
- 45:38Speaker 8: it safety want to right tackle and it you just
- 45:42Speaker 8: can't do that at that left me fresh It's you're
- 45:47Speaker 8: really you're gambling right there, because you're you're throwing a
- 45:50Speaker 8: freshman to what we would call back in the day.
- 45:53Speaker 4: Throwing them to the wolves.
- 45:54Speaker 8: As you're throwing them out there and you're hoping they
- 45:56Speaker 8: have success and you're getting them experience, but also you're
- 46:02Speaker 8: you're gambling there on you know, one of those kids
- 46:05Speaker 8: really losing confidence and all that stuff, So you gotta
- 46:07Speaker 8: be careful playing playing that many freshmen. Now, every now
- 46:10Speaker 8: and again you get a special one that yes they
- 46:13Speaker 8: can play, and I think there may be some that
- 46:16Speaker 8: that could play for the Bruns.
- 46:19Speaker 4: Uh.
- 46:20Speaker 8: But it's my understanding that they had some kids hurt,
- 46:22Speaker 8: Is that right, Evan, that were out, especially up front.
- 46:26Speaker 8: They had quite a few few kids hurt. So hopefully
- 46:28Speaker 8: those kids get back. If they do not get back,
- 46:31Speaker 8: then it's going to be really hard for them to
- 46:34Speaker 8: win Friday night against Clairemore. Clairemore this season, they have
- 46:38Speaker 8: more kids out than what coach Hurt has ever had
- 46:41Speaker 8: out on his football team. So I mean he's he's
- 46:44Speaker 8: he's got it going over there. You know that they
- 46:46Speaker 8: were successful last year. They were turned five on defense.
- 46:49Speaker 8: They only returned two on is one of them the
- 46:53Speaker 8: running back that returns, yes, which he's pretty good.
- 46:55Speaker 3: Yeah, big kid, right, running back in alignment.
- 46:57Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 46:57Speaker 4: Yeah, So.
- 47:00Speaker 8: You know it's going to be a challenge for the
- 47:01Speaker 8: Bruins going over to Claremore. If they get the kids back,
- 47:06Speaker 8: they win in a close game.
- 47:08Speaker 4: If they don't, unfortunately, it's gonna be tough.
- 47:11Speaker 5: Yeah. Yeah, there's a lot here, so talk about one.
- 47:17Speaker 5: I want to give Newcastle a little bit of credit.
- 47:20Speaker 5: They are they are better than what I thought they were.
- 47:23Speaker 5: They're bigger, their quarterbacks, big their offensive line. I mean,
- 47:25Speaker 5: they they don't look like a team that was three A.
- 47:29Speaker 5: I mean they remind me a lot of Lincoln Christian.
- 47:31Speaker 5: Lincoln Christian always has kids out that are bigger than
- 47:36Speaker 5: what you think their class is. So but at the
- 47:38Speaker 5: end of the day, Barcelos should not get beat by
- 47:40Speaker 5: five A. I'm just down here right now. A six
- 47:42Speaker 5: A two should not lose to a five A in
- 47:44Speaker 5: that matter, because I agree with you that it was
- 47:46Speaker 5: not very close. We had that sixteen point run, but
- 47:48Speaker 5: that was within about ten minutes and very well. If
- 47:52Speaker 5: they don't have a penalty and it's twenty one nothing,
- 47:55Speaker 5: then gosh, the game gets away. Obviously disciplined. I mean,
- 47:59Speaker 5: to have six offside penalties and you know by the
- 48:03Speaker 5: defensive line really hurt them.
- 48:05Speaker 4: I think the same kid had four or five of them.
- 48:08Speaker 5: I mean, under critical situations, you can't. I mean, all
- 48:12Speaker 5: of a sudden, it's third and six, third and seven,
- 48:14Speaker 5: and they jump off sides and they did it intentional
- 48:16Speaker 5: because they knew they were going to get it. Obviously
- 48:18Speaker 5: we had a couple unsportsmanlike Nico one hundred percent. You know,
- 48:23Speaker 5: I know Nico and that's the first thing when I
- 48:25Speaker 5: saw him, I said, hey, finish the dang play. He goes.
- 48:28Speaker 5: I know. I know. Good news is Coach Wright got
- 48:32Speaker 5: on him hard for a doing yeah one, So talk
- 48:36Speaker 5: about finishing place? Did you know listen to this? Did you?
- 48:41Speaker 4: So?
- 48:41Speaker 5: I know the offense had their I mean, they did
- 48:44Speaker 5: not play well for most of the game. Seventy missed
- 48:48Speaker 5: tackles on defense. So what that tells me is finishing place.
- 48:53Speaker 5: You have to finish place. Seventy missed tackles. Basically every
- 48:57Speaker 5: play on offense, there was more than one because I
- 49:01Speaker 5: think they only had sixty something plays, so there was
- 49:05Speaker 5: more than one missed tackles and sometimes every five percent.
- 49:08Speaker 5: So I know what they're concentrating on this week is discipline.
- 49:11Speaker 5: You're gonna see a whole new defensive line out there
- 49:13Speaker 5: Friday night. You're gonna see some running backs at the
- 49:16Speaker 5: defensive line of putting. Some athletes talk about freshman starting.
- 49:19Speaker 5: I believe that two freshmen are gonna be starting both
- 49:21Speaker 5: sides of the ball. So I know Kent. I think
- 49:24Speaker 5: he's going to be starting at receiver on offense, and
- 49:27Speaker 5: I know the freshman running back is going to be
- 49:30Speaker 5: starting a defensive end defensive, which is not a bad movie.
- 49:32Speaker 5: He's a good I mean, he's a good looking kid.
- 49:34Speaker 5: They're gonna move them around. I know they focused on tackling,
- 49:38Speaker 5: wrapping up, wrapping up, but really, you know, when it's
- 49:42Speaker 5: just not fundamentally or bad fundamentals, when you miss tackles
- 49:48Speaker 5: like that, it's finishing plays. And that's been a common
- 49:52Speaker 5: theme for coach Wright for three years. I think this
- 49:55Speaker 5: is a make or break game for Bartlesville because if
- 49:58Speaker 5: they don't win this game, I'm telling you, schedule doesn't
- 50:01Speaker 5: get easier. You go to call it, I mean College
- 50:03Speaker 5: Zille comes here, we got to I mean, but then
- 50:05Speaker 5: we get it to Muskogee, Sepulpa, I mean Sand Springs,
- 50:10Speaker 5: and you know there's a chance. And so it's up
- 50:13Speaker 5: to the senior class right now and that coaching stack.
- 50:17Speaker 5: Yeah yeah, and that's you know, to be honest, that's
- 50:20Speaker 5: just not a no. One should be okay with that.
- 50:24Speaker 5: So it's a big week. I am picking Bartlesville. I
- 50:27Speaker 5: think there's a little bit I think that coaching staff
- 50:29Speaker 5: should they should feel the pressure because you start ozing
- 50:33Speaker 5: three and then, like you said, you've got a chance
- 50:35Speaker 5: to go oh to nine in six a two. That's
- 50:38Speaker 5: just I mean, there should be pressure. It sounds like
- 50:41Speaker 5: it's trickling down. They've had a great first two days
- 50:43Speaker 5: of practice. I like the adjustments. I like their focus.
- 50:47Speaker 5: I like you know, with obviously I'm close to Damien
- 50:51Speaker 5: because I coach his little brother. I saw a different
- 50:54Speaker 5: focus with him. I mean talking about the sense of
- 50:57Speaker 5: urgency for Friday night. I haven't seen that because there's
- 51:01Speaker 5: been a little bit of a swagger when the swagger's
- 51:03Speaker 5: not deserved yet. Yeah, right, so you know, so I
- 51:07Speaker 5: like that. I like the adjustments. I hate that we're
- 51:09Speaker 5: playing so many freshmen, but you know what, gosh, it
- 51:12Speaker 5: is what it is. I don't want to hear this
- 51:15Speaker 5: crap of hey, we're preparing for the future. I know that,
- 51:19Speaker 5: but not with freshmen. You got to win now, right
- 51:22Speaker 5: because you're in year three and I know we've made
- 51:25Speaker 5: the playoffs, but you know, everyone's making the playoffs these days,
- 51:29Speaker 5: so it's a big it's it's a big game Friday Night.
- 51:32Speaker 5: I am picking Bartaspool. I don't think Claire Moore. I
- 51:34Speaker 5: like coach Hurt. I think he's one of the best
- 51:36Speaker 5: coaches in Northeast Oklahoma, but I think he's lost too
- 51:40Speaker 5: much from last year. He's going to have a good
- 51:43Speaker 5: game plan. It's at Clairemore. It's week one for them.
- 51:46Speaker 5: I like the environment, but I am picking Bartaspool here.
- 51:50Speaker 4: This game's kind of become a little rival. Yes, it has,
- 51:53Speaker 4: it has.
- 51:53Speaker 5: Yeah, Yeah, it's kind of good.
- 51:55Speaker 3: The one thing that I was thinking about too is
- 51:57Speaker 3: I was getting ready for this one of the broadcasts,
- 52:00Speaker 3: and you're right, look at the scores. Since they've played
- 52:02Speaker 3: in non district play, Bruins have won twenty one fourteen,
- 52:06Speaker 3: lost forty to twenty eight, one thirty four to ten,
- 52:10Speaker 3: won fifteen to fourteen, won twenty to nine, and then
- 52:13Speaker 3: lost by one point last year.
- 52:15Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 52:15Speaker 3: So outside of the twenty four point Bruin win in
- 52:19Speaker 3: twenty twenty, they've all been ten point games.
- 52:23Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 52:23Speaker 3: The one thing that I was thinking about and getting
- 52:25Speaker 3: ready for this game that I don't ever think when
- 52:27Speaker 3: you think about Bartlesville football to twenty twenty three, you
- 52:31Speaker 3: think about those losses to Stillwater, Muskogee, Sand Springs, all
- 52:36Speaker 3: three of which were right there and then of course
- 52:38Speaker 3: they still finished just behind those teams. Sure in the district,
- 52:42Speaker 3: won a playoff game and then lost pretty good at
- 52:45Speaker 3: der Creek. You forget that they went zero to three
- 52:48Speaker 3: against three five A teams in the non district. So yeah,
- 52:52Speaker 3: it's it's bad, and I agree with some of what
- 52:54Speaker 3: you guys are saying, but that program and staff has
- 52:58Speaker 3: proven that they got off really bad start last year,
- 53:01Speaker 3: sure ex. Three five eight teams, and then a couple
- 53:04Speaker 3: of weeks later with your backup quarterback, you've got still
- 53:06Speaker 3: water down with like three minutes left in the game.
- 53:08Speaker 3: That's true, So it can change pretty quick if you
- 53:11Speaker 3: get the guys to believe in themselves. I think that's
- 53:14Speaker 3: one thing that this program has been a little different
- 53:17Speaker 3: the last two three years, that those guys do believe
- 53:19Speaker 3: in themselves. Maybe too much sometimes, right, but probably better
- 53:23Speaker 3: that than what we've had other times where I think
- 53:26Speaker 3: they think they're losing every week.
- 53:28Speaker 4: They go out to the game. They got confidence.
- 53:29Speaker 3: It's a fine it's a fine line in there, right.
- 53:31Speaker 8: Yeah, And and Evan, exactly what you're saying there. That's
- 53:35Speaker 8: what I'm talking about about playing young kids, playing freshmen
- 53:39Speaker 8: like that. They don't they're trying to develop that confidence.
- 53:42Speaker 8: They don't know what that confidence is. So you've got
- 53:45Speaker 8: to build that confidence. And you know, if they get
- 53:49Speaker 8: stomped pretty bad, it's hard for them to get that confidence. So,
- 53:54Speaker 8: like I said, maybe I don't know did they play
- 53:56Speaker 8: this week? Do they the freshman play?
- 54:00Speaker 3: I don't know about the sub varsity guys. Now I'm
- 54:03Speaker 3: sure they do, but yeah, I don't know.
- 54:04Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, those players should be playing on I mean
- 54:06Speaker 5: should be.
- 54:07Speaker 4: Yeah, those guys shouldn't be.
- 54:08Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean the rule is I mean because you
- 54:10Speaker 5: because you go to two games a week, right a week,
- 54:13Speaker 5: and those starters hopefully aren't playing JV. I mean, those
- 54:16Speaker 5: guys are just getting it from Friday night. So you know, Evan,
- 54:19Speaker 5: that's a very good point. I mean, the one thing
- 54:21Speaker 5: about this staff and this team over the last two
- 54:23Speaker 5: or three years is that they do have a memory
- 54:24Speaker 5: of a goldfish. I mean, I'm telling you we have
- 54:27Speaker 5: seen two different teams in less than a week, you know,
- 54:30Speaker 5: from Friday night to Friday night. But you know, if
- 54:35Speaker 5: we think about it, the last ten to twelve, I
- 54:37Speaker 5: mean really the last fifteen years, I mean nine oh wait,
- 54:40Speaker 5: you know, there were some really good teams in that
- 54:42Speaker 5: era in six A. I mean, you know, they're playing
- 54:47Speaker 5: the Union, the Jinks, the Broken Arrows, and they're close games.
- 54:50Speaker 5: And then playing six A twos wasn't close games, and
- 54:54Speaker 5: then we had a little bit of a lull, and
- 54:55Speaker 5: then we got into twenty fifteen, you know, in the
- 54:57Speaker 5: six A twos. So yeah, it's you know, obviously I'm
- 55:01Speaker 5: passionate about Brooin football and I want them to be
- 55:03Speaker 5: successful and uh, you know, I I want them to
- 55:07Speaker 5: go out and play well this Friday playing so oh yeah, absolutely, yeah.
- 55:12Speaker 8: You know from your first game, the second game we
- 55:15Speaker 8: just talked about, that's where you see your most improvement.
- 55:18Speaker 8: And fortunately for the Bruins, they've played that game and
- 55:22Speaker 8: Clairemore has not, so they got a bit of an
- 55:24Speaker 8: advantage there.
- 55:25Speaker 4: So uh it'll be good. Yeah, yeah, I'm excited.
- 55:29Speaker 6: You know, Evan, how these schools sometimes these college programs
- 55:34Speaker 6: will bring in you know, advisors or whatever.
- 55:36Speaker 5: Like it's not a Ko Gundy was.
- 55:37Speaker 4: Over helping Mike. You know for a while.
- 55:40Speaker 6: I have to point out that fourth grade Bruin White
- 55:43Speaker 6: is two and oh this year no oh no, you didn't.
- 55:46Speaker 7: Play last week.
- 55:47Speaker 5: No, we got a bye week it's oh really zero
- 55:49Speaker 5: and then we had a bye week.
- 55:50Speaker 6: But you know, they've brought in an advisor for the
- 55:53Speaker 6: program to just you know, help out every now and
- 55:56Speaker 6: then maybe look over the squad see how their practice.
- 55:59Speaker 9: You know, is going, and things like that.
- 56:01Speaker 5: He's putting his hand on the ground coaching.
- 56:03Speaker 3: I saw that.
- 56:04Speaker 6: Yeah, I saw coach Revard with him blocking dummy, you know,
- 56:07Speaker 6: helping out on some some surveillance photos.
- 56:11Speaker 9: That I saw.
- 56:12Speaker 6: And so I think it's I think Brew and White
- 56:15Speaker 6: is the team to watch this week. I know we've
- 56:17Speaker 6: talked about a lot of games. Fourth grade Brew and
- 56:19Speaker 6: White is who do we have this week?
- 56:23Speaker 5: Well? Also Barzil, you know fourth grade also Barzil Columbia
- 56:26Speaker 5: is really really good. They are good, Yeah they are.
- 56:30Speaker 5: This is one of those classes. But we've got Broken
- 56:32Speaker 5: Arrow Silver at Broken Arrow at two thirty on Saturday,
- 56:35Speaker 5: the first weekend of here. We're going to a little
- 56:38Speaker 5: but that's okay. It should be a really good, uh
- 56:42Speaker 5: day for Barzila.
- 56:43Speaker 7: Well, don't worry.
- 56:43Speaker 6: Oclub State plays at eleven. You can watch the whole
- 56:45Speaker 6: game and still coach your game.
- 56:47Speaker 5: It's okay, man, you know, I don't know if that's
- 56:49Speaker 5: on that you know, oh really, I'm still breaking down
- 56:51Speaker 5: tape at the very end, really looking up. So what
- 56:55Speaker 5: you want?
- 56:55Speaker 8: You need to make sure you have practice over early
- 56:58Speaker 8: on Thursday so we can watch Chiefs.
- 57:04Speaker 7: The advisor is making a request, you know.
- 57:08Speaker 5: You know, I'll just take about forty five seconds here
- 57:10Speaker 5: about youth football and not about Bartswell. That's even though great.
- 57:14Speaker 5: I mean, youth football is where it starts to feed
- 57:19Speaker 5: Friday nights, and there are some as I look back
- 57:22Speaker 5: over the last twenty five years, kind of the peaks
- 57:24Speaker 5: and valleys of high school football for Bartosil, I can
- 57:28Speaker 5: go back and look, I mean it runs lint here
- 57:30Speaker 5: of when the youth program is strong because there's four
- 57:33Speaker 5: or five dads out there in different classes that really
- 57:37Speaker 5: get behind it, and then the parents get behind it.
- 57:40Speaker 5: And you know, I've never had an issue with parents.
- 57:43Speaker 5: I don't see issues at you know, with these four
- 57:46Speaker 5: or five coaches that are out there at different levels.
- 57:49Speaker 5: That's exciting. Numbers are way up. Coaching coaches on all
- 57:55Speaker 5: levels are really good because kids are staying out whether
- 58:00Speaker 5: or not they win or lose, they're staying out and
- 58:02Speaker 5: the numbers keep throwing. So I think, you know, if
- 58:05Speaker 5: we can continue this momentum. And coach writing staff is
- 58:08Speaker 5: involved with the youth football, so I mean he knows
- 58:12Speaker 5: that youth football is his feeder. So you know that's
- 58:16Speaker 5: that's really good. And of course I love talking about it.
- 58:18Speaker 5: And next week I'll bring some more scores back of
- 58:21Speaker 5: some other teams and talk a little bit and just
- 58:23Speaker 5: take a couple of minutes about them.
- 58:24Speaker 6: I love that And you guys know this, but you know,
- 58:27Speaker 6: I don't know if our listeners do. You know, we
- 58:30Speaker 6: do the Meet the Bruins deal before the season where
- 58:32Speaker 6: we get to introduce every youth football player from every
- 58:37Speaker 6: single team at every level and they get to run
- 58:39Speaker 6: out of the tunnel and all that stuff. I could
- 58:41Speaker 6: not believe the number of kids it took. You know, again,
- 58:45Speaker 6: as the announcer, it was.
- 58:47Speaker 7: A lot of work. There was. There were teams that
- 58:50Speaker 7: had just an overwhelming number of kids on them, and
- 58:53Speaker 7: especially at the sixth seventh grade level, where Nighthawk is right,
- 58:58Speaker 7: they're staying around. You know a lot of.
- 59:00Speaker 6: Times there'll be big numbers at the third fourth grade,
- 59:04Speaker 6: but then when they get older and it gets tougher,
- 59:06Speaker 6: they start to fall away. The seventh grade roster was
- 59:10Speaker 6: unbelievably big. Yeah, then, and if those kids will keep
- 59:14Speaker 6: playing in a town like Bartlesville, it's a numbers game.
- 59:18Speaker 7: You've got to have enough people out.
- 59:20Speaker 6: There playing that that you can get guys in the
- 59:24Speaker 6: right position because you've got enough of them.
- 59:26Speaker 4: Sure, I hope it gets to the point.
- 59:29Speaker 8: And Coach Wright has done an incredible job supporting the
- 59:32Speaker 8: youth program and being out there and with everybody, so
- 59:35Speaker 8: you know, kudos to him and his staff and all
- 59:37Speaker 8: of them for doing that.
- 59:38Speaker 4: But I hope it.
- 59:39Speaker 8: Gets to the point where they have to split the
- 59:42Speaker 8: seventh and the eighth grade and make two teams per grade. Yes,
- 59:46Speaker 8: you know, because if you got forty to fifty kids
- 59:49Speaker 8: in the seventh grade, it's hard for to get all
- 59:51Speaker 8: those kids.
- 59:52Speaker 4: And you don't want to lose.
- 59:52Speaker 5: Them, and it's all about reps at that age.
- 59:56Speaker 4: Exactly right.
- 59:57Speaker 8: I remember, you know, we didn't have that many, but
- 1:00:00Speaker 8: we would have a lot of kids. So we would
- 1:00:03Speaker 8: play a fifth quarter where you know, all the kids
- 1:00:07Speaker 8: who didn't get to play, they'd at least get to
- 1:00:08Speaker 8: play one quarter.
- 1:00:10Speaker 4: There's a couple times we played two quarters.
- 1:00:12Speaker 8: Against if another team, you know, they had a lot
- 1:00:14Speaker 8: of kids and they didn't play, you know, on a
- 1:00:17Speaker 8: Tuesday night or Thursday night, they'd we'd play a couple
- 1:00:20Speaker 8: extra quarters where those kids could just play.
- 1:00:22Speaker 5: Yeah. Yeah, because it's all about development. And you know,
- 1:00:25Speaker 5: in two thousand and six, I know Evans sitting there
- 1:00:29Speaker 5: looking at his watch. But in two thousand and six
- 1:00:32Speaker 5: talk about a class, the eighth grade class. So that
- 1:00:34Speaker 5: was the twenty elevens class first, that was their eighth
- 1:00:39Speaker 5: grade year. We had three teams in youth and I
- 1:00:43Speaker 5: told I kept warning coach Wheeler, coach, you better get
- 1:00:46Speaker 5: two schedules. Yeah, guess how many kids checked out pads
- 1:00:49Speaker 5: that year for eighth grade football? Sixty two ninety two?
- 1:00:55Speaker 4: Did they split teams? Now? They had one team with
- 1:00:57Speaker 4: that one you can't do.
- 1:00:59Speaker 5: That's how I got into high school coaching because they
- 1:01:02Speaker 5: lost about thirty five kids really quick, and they went
- 1:01:05Speaker 5: over five and Coach Smith came to me and said,
- 1:01:07Speaker 5: I need some help with this.
- 1:01:08Speaker 4: I can't do.
- 1:01:08Speaker 5: I know that you know these kids. So that's how
- 1:01:11Speaker 5: I got into varsity coaching. And I just followed them
- 1:01:13Speaker 5: up and then stay and then stayed after it. So couple,
- 1:01:17Speaker 5: but they needed to set enthusiasm. So the whole point
- 1:01:21Speaker 5: of this the community in Barzlo. If you want a
- 1:01:23Speaker 5: good product on Friday night, support your youth football. It's great.
- 1:01:27Speaker 5: I mean, it's the purest football that you'll see. It
- 1:01:30Speaker 5: is because they just love the sport and they're just
- 1:01:33Speaker 5: out there. Now. Some of the coaches can be, including myself,
- 1:01:35Speaker 5: can be overbearing, be a horse, but at the end
- 1:01:39Speaker 5: of the day, we love them, but we love those kids.
- 1:01:41Speaker 5: We love the kids. Yeah, yeah, so anyway, but.
- 1:01:43Speaker 6: Yeah, if they can do if they can do you know,
- 1:01:46Speaker 6: like seventh grade Blue and seventh grade white.
- 1:01:48Speaker 7: They need to do that more reps one hundred percent.
- 1:01:51Speaker 7: They've done it before.
- 1:01:52Speaker 5: Yes, yes, yeah, okay, all right, well, good luck.
- 1:01:56Speaker 4: To everybody Friday night, everybody, the little luck. Get out
- 1:01:59Speaker 4: there and watch them. Weather's going to beautiful. Oh God,
- 1:02:04Speaker 4: get out and watch them.
- 1:02:05Speaker 8: If you can't k w O n TV, get on there,
- 1:02:09Speaker 8: or if you miss a game, go back and watch them.
- 1:02:11Speaker 5: That's what I like to do.
- 1:02:13Speaker 8: You can go back and watch and I will say
- 1:02:14Speaker 8: that Tuesday, Wednesday night, you and coach.
- 1:02:16Speaker 5: Pool were in mid season for him. Oh god, I'm
- 1:02:18Speaker 5: telling you.
- 1:02:19Speaker 4: Good guy, really good game. Did a fantastic job.
- 1:02:22Speaker 3: Well, I had kids playing hot wheels on my feet.
- 1:02:25Speaker 3: We were in the back row of the bleachers.
- 1:02:27Speaker 5: And it looked like.
- 1:02:30Speaker 7: So you guys were talking about that.
- 1:02:31Speaker 3: Were you literally outside, Yes, sitting on the bleacher and
- 1:02:34Speaker 3: had a kid sit on my toes and he was
- 1:02:37Speaker 3: playing That's awesome, and his dad just looked at him.
- 1:02:40Speaker 3: He looked at me. Turn let it go, care.
- 1:02:43Speaker 7: All, that's awesome.
- 1:02:45Speaker 5: High school football.
- 1:02:47Speaker 3: You I didn't have enough room to sit on the tables,
- 1:02:50Speaker 3: had a clipboard. I almost about it.
