Good Evening, Evan Farbach, Chris Reebard, Chris Batch Elder and Nate
0:23
Nighthawk on the phone. It's good evening. Nighthawk is on the road.
0:32
I Am, I Am. He traveled out to Bishop Gorman in Vegas to
0:35
watch him play football, so he wanted to see how the Oklahoma teams could
0:39
peak with Bishop Gorman. Is that that fake team that went and played everybody
0:43
around it? No? No, that was that was Bishop Something. Second's
0:48
where DeMarco Murray came from? And what was the linebacker's name? That was
0:53
really good? What they came together? You remember Nighthawk? Yeah, I
0:58
do not. They're not near as good as what they used to be.
1:02
Yeah. Was that Black Magic Woman? It was? That's awesome? Yeah,
1:06
what a what a opening song? I tried to get everybody? Yeah,
1:11
Week number five. This is the sixth of eleven regular season weeks of
1:17
The Green Country Kickoff Show and Tailgate Talk thanks to Gateway First Bank. Last
1:22
week, we had a pretty good week as far as area school. I
1:25
was gonna say, guys, we had a really good picking week. It
1:27
was our most successful picks week. Last week, I was really really watching
1:32
close and we did really really well. At least two of us in the
1:36
room right now that are together made a really really good pick on the Bruins.
1:41
But I'm sure we'll get to that in a little bit. Yeah,
1:44
I think all the area teams won outside of Oklahoma Union and Knei Valley and
1:51
Dewey. Yes about that. Yes, so those three did not win last
1:56
week, but everyone else won. Barnesdall, Westing Christian School, copan Wata,
2:00
Bartlesville, Kenny Kansas all got wins last week, and we have a
2:05
really good slate this week. I was going over at doing preparation for the
2:08
program, and I was particularly excited about a lot of the ballgames. So
2:12
why don't we go ahead and hop to it and we'll start north of the
2:15
border as we always do. The Kenny Kansas Bullpops are at home against Neota
2:20
Shay. Keeney Valley is three and one. They've got a forty two to
2:23
six win at Cherry Vale against the Chargers last week. The Neota Shay Blue
2:29
Streaks or two and two. They beat West Franklin a week ago forty eight
2:32
to fourteen. They have a comment opponent. It's Eureka again. Niota Shay
2:38
lost to Eureka twelve to six on September the eighth, while Kenney beat Eureka
2:43
fifty eight to sixteen the week following that matchup. Alright, first off,
2:47
before we pick this, we do have a big announcement that's going to happen
2:51
at the end of the show, so you'll want to make sure that you
2:53
stay tuned in for the big announcement. We're gonna wait till the end of
2:55
the show to let the cut out of the back there very exciting announcement.
3:00
Stay tuned. That's right. Kenny Kansas says started to score points ever since
3:06
I called them out. So I think I'm gonna start calling out all the
3:08
teams who cannot score because they scored fifty eight and then forty two in their
3:14
last two games since since I called them out and said they can't score.
3:17
Uh, just based off the scores here and things. And I think that
3:21
Kenny Valley kind of got their offense going running the old wishbone. I think
3:24
they're gonna come on to come out on top this week. Bullpups all the
3:29
way. I'm just telling you right now, this is the Bullpups. Are
3:31
you know? In mid season fourm they do this, they kick it into
3:36
gear and whip everybody. Uh, they're already heading toward the playoffs and we'll
3:40
try to get them over the top end that. But I'm telling you the
3:44
Bullpups, they get dialed in when Rev calls them out, I'm taking them.
3:46
Did that's just maybe Tommy them? No way, No, I mean
3:52
always they're in the playoffs. Well, we've been doing this for several years
3:58
now, and we've seen this. We've seen the Bullpups, and I'm hoping
4:03
things are different this year. They're gonna make a little farther this year in
4:05
the blouse. But let's hear your poll. I think they made it the
4:08
Semis last year, so let's just right yea, yeah, the last year
4:13
they did pretty good, which means they won one game. No, they
4:15
wasn't really two games. Okay, really good job. You call them out
4:19
last week a couple of weeks ago, and now their offense is just rolling.
4:24
I agree. I'm obviously did not have as good a picks as what
4:28
you guys had last week, but I am gonna go Kenny, and I
4:32
think that's gonna be I think they're going to continue to roll. Their offense's
4:38
gone obviously going to play good defense. Shay is not as strong as they
4:42
have been in the past. So Bullpups all the way. All right,
4:46
everyone takes Kenny Kansas. Let's go to a ball game that was not on
4:49
our original schedule. It is Barnes do All at home against with Tumpka.
4:55
That was an addition over the weekend. That'll be the final non district game
5:00
for Barnesdall. If you were called, they were supposed to play Claimer Christian
5:02
last Friday and then have a bye week this Friday. Claimer Christian forfeited their
5:08
ball game, made Barnes Doll five and Ozero. They didn't want to have
5:11
three weeks off between ball games. They found a game against what Tumka as
5:15
the Chieftain's game against Kiyota on Friday was also called off. What Tumka is
5:20
coming off to ten and two season, but the Chieftains are two and two.
5:24
Thus four I have a sixty six to thirty four loss to drum Right.
5:27
They lost a Regent Prep. It's a really good club usually in class,
5:30
made by only a touchdown a week ago. They have wins over Quentin
5:33
and our coma and of course, as we mentioned, Barnesdall's five and oh
5:38
they've not played for a couple of weeks, fighting stashes all the way.
5:41
How many yarchs does the kid have? Are you keeping track of it?
5:44
I don't know it off the top of my head. I mean, we're
5:46
looking for over a thousand at this point. And so I think that Barnsdall,
5:53
I don't know much about what Tomka they, like you said, they
5:56
had a really good season last year. But again, Barnsdall is another one
6:00
of those teams that's really shifting into gear right now, getting ready for district
6:03
play. I like him to roll here, nine hawk what you got?
6:08
That's how scared are you of Barnsdall? Now you were scared of them when
6:12
they were zero and zero, and now that they're Oh no, I'm just
6:15
gonna tell you right now, any fifth grade team that goes over there to
6:18
scrimmage is going to be terrified. I'm not. I don't want any piece
6:20
of them. I don't even want to go over there. It scares me
6:24
just to think about going into town. They got that oil well in the
6:27
middle of the road. I'm not doing it. Easton Malone. By the
6:30
way, uh, seven hundred and twenty four yards sixty one carries, guys,
6:34
that's a four games. Yeah, so he's averaging eleven point nine yards
6:41
a carry in one hundred and eighty one yards a game. And there's a
6:44
few there's a few games he's only had like four or five carries, like
6:46
two they've been at a halftime. Yeah, yeah, exactly him. Yeah,
6:50
yeah, I was gonna say those seven or twenty four yards were down
6:54
in the first two quarters. Yeah, basically every game. So Barnstall,
7:00
I don't even know where this feather Town is. What Tomka, Well,
7:02
I wouldn't say one hundred percent because with Tomka is not a bad football team.
7:06
Guys. They lost a Region Prep you know, by a touchdown,
7:11
and Region Prep is good every year in year out, and they wanted several
7:15
times. But in the last ten years, I'm stay, that's fine,
7:20
that'snd of Tommy. They're five and oh they're rolling. Like I said,
7:24
they're offensive deepens, the line are just so much bigger than everybody that they're
7:28
going to play and obviously got really good at scale players as well. Uh
7:32
far and self. I think I think they're playing at home helps amount of
7:36
lot sure, otherwise I'd probably have to go with what Tompka. I wonder
7:41
how they decided where that game was supposed to be with Tomka was supposed to
7:44
be at home this weekend as well. What Tomka, by the way,
7:46
is right to the southwest of Henrietta and Walitka is almost right in between Henrietta.
7:55
Every big Rivals they play in the last game of the season every year.
7:59
I don't know that I believe that. If that's not true, do
8:01
you actually know that I do. I looked at it. Yeah, we
8:03
had a conversation with somebody about it this week. Yeah, because by that
8:07
so I'm taking the Panthers. That's only two hours from here. It was
8:09
not that fur Panthers, all right. Oklahoma Union is at home against the
8:13
hominy Bucks tonight. Cougars oh and four again lost the pretty close ball game
8:18
thirty to eight a week ago their district opener at Morrison, A homedy.
8:22
Looks to be one of the best Class eight teams in the state. Bucks
8:26
are four and zero one to know and district play. They've outscored their opponents
8:30
one eighty eight to fifty in those four wins. They got a district opening
8:35
win against Pawnee last week fifty five to twenty two. Oklahoma Union has got
8:39
a huge challenge. You're going up against Homedy Bucks. It's gonna be it's
8:43
over a half. I hope it's not. If they can make it to
8:46
the second half, then that's a victory form. But yeah, this is
8:50
this is Actually they can't because they have to play Oh really, yeah,
8:54
they'll They'll have to finish the running clock. Yeah, running clock. They
9:00
have Bloy Bryan Clark in the second half for sure. Show yep. So
9:05
I agree with you. I think Oklomba Unions. We want them, we
9:11
want them, we are pulling for them so hard. But it's just not
9:15
gonna happen this week. Uh, comminy. We've talked about the program a
9:18
couple different times. Talented, tough, played good defense, and so I
9:26
gotta go with the Bucks as well. Yeah it's the Bucks. I hope
9:28
Okclooma Union shocks the world right here, but it's gonna be tough. Maybe
9:33
maybe the game of the week now, one that I've been hyping up on
9:37
the radio and our old website Bartlesfield Radio dot com over the course of the
9:41
last several weeks. It was Wesleyan Christian School hosting Copan. It's one that
9:46
I've kind of had circled on my calendar all preseason. Not very often two
9:50
teams from Washington County play each other. We'll have it on Friday night.
9:54
Both teams are two and two overall, both are one and zero and Class
9:58
C district. With the wins a week ago, Copan kind of a coming
10:03
out party for the Hornets sixty eight twenty win at Blue Jacket Weston Aroic one
10:09
hundred and seventy one yards on the ground, tagging corone four touchdowns, some
10:13
six carries on the ground came Foreman more than a hundred yards through the air.
10:16
Wesleyan Christian School Boy. It's been a much different first four weeks of
10:22
the season than you would have thought for Wesleyan Christian Amen football. When your
10:26
top wide receiver in your top quarterback, you're starting quarterback go down, things
10:31
look a little bit different. Mustangs had to grind out a win at Oakes
10:33
last week twenty one to fourteen. Had a true freshman at quarterback and James
10:39
Wisdom Aidan Hart who was their running back who did pretty well in that ball
10:43
game. Actually came in and I played a wildcat QB down the stretch and
10:46
they got a big score. They put them up by two scores late that
10:50
they kind of cruised onto the win. Wesleyan Christian won this game a year
10:52
ago sixty one to twenty. I very much doubt it'll be that lopsided for
10:58
the Mustangs this year. It should be a good one in Bartlesville on Friday
11:03
night. I think we're looking at two completely different football teams than last year,
11:07
especially with you know Steamers out in the quarterback out losing their running back.
11:11
I mean, those are three huge skill players that you've lost from last
11:16
year. And then we know the Copan Hornets are a year older and they're
11:20
they're big, they're physical, they'll get after you. This is gonna be
11:24
a great game. Looking forward to it. I wish Mortisville Westland was healthy.
11:30
Unfortunately they're not, so I'll been going with the Copan Hornets. Look
11:33
at my calendar rev right here on Friday night and tell me what's on there,
11:37
and has been for quite some time. I'm telling you guys, right
11:39
now, christ And I'm going to this game. I've had it circled on
11:43
my calendar. The Bruins are at The Bruins are at US Grant, which
11:48
is which is in no way, shape or form a road game that I'm
11:52
going to be making. And so I'm going to the game of the week
11:56
right here in Bartlesville. I can't wait. I think with the situation that
12:03
Wesley and Christian is in with their injuries, I also am going with the
12:09
Copan Hornets. I can't wait. I'm excited for Coach Foreman, can't wait
12:11
to see them in person. And what a game that should be. Yeah,
12:16
I can't be a great game. And Batch, I remember you talking
12:20
about this game literally four weeks ago, talking about, hey, we're gonna
12:24
go, and I think I'm also gonna go watch that game. So first
12:28
I want to say what a tremendous job Coach Cloud is doing and has done.
12:33
Last week, obviously we picked I picked the other team, and boy,
12:37
I just you lose that based starter that much talent, and then for
12:41
them to come out and fight it was evensive battle to come out and win,
12:46
just tremendous. My hats off Coach Cloud. We talked about it last
12:48
week too. He's a great coach, but he's also going against a really
12:52
good coach this week as well. I am gonna I'm gonna lean towards go
12:56
pand I think co Pan takes this and or a really good game. But
13:01
I think Copange is going to win it less than a touchdown or right at
13:05
that touchdown mark. So Copa, I think that there is a chance.
13:11
I don't think it's for sure, but I think there's a chance. Wesleyan
13:13
Christian does have some of those guys back. Now, how much they've practiced,
13:18
whether there's rust exactly how many or even if any of them come back,
13:22
we'll be a question. But I only mentioned that to say I think
13:26
you could be looking at a much different Wesleyan Christian School football team in three
13:30
weeks than the one that they'll trot out this Friday night too. Oh yeah,
13:33
and that could change this game right here. If you know, they
13:37
get Cloud and Steamer's back, that could definitely make this game could look completely
13:41
different. Yeah. Yeah, I agree with what something that Nighthawks said.
13:46
My hats off to both of these coaches. They have done a really unbelievable
13:52
job this season. Well, really building programs over the last several seasons,
13:56
but this season really kind of taken what they've been down and make it it
14:01
work. And I can't wait to see them. I think it was I
14:03
think it was five years ago that those two teams had to coop with each
14:07
other just to have a team. Remember that, Yeah, and South Coffeeville
14:11
right well, now there's a tailgate talk game of the weekend. Yea,
14:15
how they're playing each other? Yeah, and there and they're I mean it
14:18
very well could decide the district championship. I love it. I mean there's
14:20
a I think better than twenty percent chance that's one and two in the district.
14:24
Right there, we'll see so pretty cool stuff for those eight man clubs.
14:28
They've come a long way last four or five seasons and we're very much
14:31
looking forward to that. We have a lot of audio and previews from both
14:35
those teams on our website if you missed it at Bartlesville Radio dot com over
14:39
the course of the week as well. Next ballgame do we on the road
14:43
at Bristow Bulldoggers one and three. They're coming off a forty five to fifteen
14:48
loss to Jay last week. Did finally get on the scoreboard after they were
14:52
shut out a couple of weeks in a row. Bristow is two and two.
14:56
Do we one and three? Pirates are one and oh and dish play.
15:00
They beat Iola on the road last week thirty seven to twelve. Bristow
15:03
won this ball game fifty eight to six a year ago. Last time that
15:09
Dewey beat and Bristow. Chris Reevard was an assistant for the Bulldogger. That's
15:15
not true. Were you a head coach? That's not true. That's not
15:18
true. I was a head coach. We beat them, and that might
15:22
have been oh two that we beat them. That's what it says. Yeah,
15:24
yeah, I was a head football You were the head game place they
15:26
were three? Started in three? When did you start up two? Yeah?
15:31
They were the They were the number three team in the state of Oklahoma.
15:33
And we get a pass interfairs call right before halftime, getting untimed down
15:41
though it deep, it tips Brandon Smith catches touchdown. Is that your first
15:43
year is my first year's head So he started to paw and that thirty nine
15:48
thirty five was a story. They were number three team in the state.
15:50
They come to the larger stadium, we flog THEMLO. Congratulations, thank you,
15:56
that was a big Yeah. They haven't played that many times. So
15:58
anyway, Dewey and Bristow a good memory too. Rev. Yeah, but
16:00
we all know that even though you're the head coach, you had some good
16:03
staff around you. Oh absolutely, And you know what, I think we've
16:07
beat them several other times throughout that course. You might need to check that
16:11
staff, or we could just not check it and move on and pick the
16:14
game. We'll move on. But Evan and I are going to check that.
16:17
I mean, I'll pay them, and it's possible maybe. So well,
16:21
let's you guys, you guys ready for that. Let's talk about the
16:22
Bulldoggers. I'm taking them. I'm taking the Bulldoggers. They've got to have
16:27
one of these games where they really break through, and I think it's I
16:30
think it's I think it's this game go ahead and yeah, so uh hey,
16:40
maybe a little bit of that Rev magic from two thousand food is going
16:42
to come out. I think on the road, I'm still looking for Stewies
16:49
to get their offense going. So I'm gonna have to go against the Brain,
16:52
against Batch and probably against Rev as well. But I am going to
16:56
go Bristol. I think that it's going to be a tight game. I
17:00
think that Bristow was a little bit stronger upfront and yeah, so yeah,
17:06
I gotta go Bristow. Well, I went up last week to homecoming and
17:10
uh watched homecoming. Watch my former assistant brand Dugger. His daughter was homecoming,
17:15
Queen Addie and all. It was a great ceremony. Everything was great.
17:18
But watched the Bulldogers for the first quarter before I went to Sperry,
17:22
Little Kansas and watched them play Did you see did you run into special guest
17:26
Kevin Lynch? I did not see. Okay, I did not seek.
17:30
But the first quarter, the Bulldogers had a great game plan going up against
17:33
Jay's run game, trying to stop the big fullback and bos He is a
17:37
big kid, and they had a great game plan and just basically said Jay
17:44
throw the football. Well coach Eddie Barnwell said, okay, I'll through it,
17:47
and he did. He three for two touchdown passes their first two touchdown
17:51
passes with long touchdowns, and and that kind of just kind of, you
17:55
know, deflated the Bulldogers right there because they could not get anything. Ain't
18:00
going offensively. They are They're really struggling. They move Easton Davis to one
18:04
of their receivers to running back, played him back there he looked goods.
18:08
He's a little sophomore running never played running back before. Moved him back there
18:15
and he looked good. But they're gonna have to figure out how to get
18:18
first downs to keep defense off the field or they're they're not gonna win.
18:22
And this week it's gonna be tough going up against a very athletic Bristow Purple
18:26
Pirates team in Bristow. I just think the old wall there is going to
18:33
be really tough for them to climb and get over this week. And I'm
18:36
going to take the Bristow Pirates. Wow. Okay, I'm shocked at that
18:42
reff really do. It's just it's tough. I want to pick them really
18:48
bad. Yeah, but I know how athletic. It's like it's like them
18:52
playing Vanita. When they played Vanita, Vanita is very athletic and when they
18:59
got speed and the Bulldoggers don't. It's just tough, all right, Next
19:04
ball game Nowada and Vanita. Speaking of which, Kreg one on four point
19:10
nine kregatv dot com tonight Nowada three and one. First time the Ironman's have
19:17
at least three wins and their first four games since that twenty fourteen run to
19:22
the class of oh. I guess it was two a I believe state championship
19:26
game. Nowada beat Kandy Valley last week forty four to eight. Vanita one
19:33
and three. A Hornet's lost to Bajoska last week and kind of a surprising
19:37
score. I thought forty four to seven. Boska trounced them. They also
19:41
have losses to j and Sperry. Their lone windows over Dewey that was thirty
19:45
four to nothing back on September the eighth, Nowada and Vanita tonight from Nowada
19:51
on KREG one on four point nine kregtv dot com. Guys, I talked
19:55
about this game last week, exciting. This is gonna be a great game.
20:00
Think it's two evenly matched football teams. No Water is coming in with
20:04
a lot of confidence. Had a week off last week. You know that
20:08
could help him, it could hurt him. I don't. I don't know.
20:11
You never can tell. But and then Vanita got thumped last week by
20:15
Phuska. This is gonna be a fantastic game and at No Water. I'm
20:21
taking the ironman here, go beat the dog out of Vanita Hornets. Yeah,
20:23
I'm gonna go ahead and disagree with you. I don't think it's gonna
20:27
be a good game. I don't think it's an even matchup. I think
20:32
No Water is gonna beat the life out of these guys. You talk about
20:36
Vanita team speed and that was only apparently it gets Dewey because they have gotten
20:41
the brakes beat off them ever since. And I really really like Nowata and
20:45
what they're doing. And I know that I started the season a little iffy
20:51
on the Ironman and they have absolutely proven me wrong. They are rolling and
20:56
I like everything I'm seeing. I think No Water in a runaway. Yeah
21:00
good that this? Uh? And I've got to go with you guys,
21:04
I think no Wather. We talked about it a couple of weeks ago,
21:07
but really we were kind of I mean, if you take out that Dewey
21:10
game, were really what the last couple of minutes? I think they're four?
21:14
Oh yeah, they had a week off. I'm a firm believer that
21:18
if you do get a week off, especially early different district play, I
21:22
think that helps. I think the coach is going to be prepared and the
21:25
kids are going to be fresh, and you know we have a week off
21:27
like that. Boy, just I mean to play one last game, your
21:33
body, the kids, They're gonna be fresh. And I think No Water
21:36
just run away with this game. Wow, two runaways. I think it's
21:38
gonna be a tight game. We got two runaways. This is gonna be
21:41
great. I would love for No Wada to win. They have not had
21:45
a tend of success against Fanita. It's two teams that have played each other
21:48
six and nineteen, the last twenty seven meetings from what I remember looking it
21:52
up. So I wonder if Vanita and No Water are going to play next
21:56
year now that Vanta is going back up. They used to non district.
22:00
I don't know if you guys know this or not, but this year was
22:03
the last year duey no what A is gonna play each other? Wow,
22:07
they're not doing non districts. No, they're not playing non district It baffles
22:11
me absolutely. Who's making that decision? Whoever made it as a horrible decision.
22:15
Yeah, I mean the game the last time they didn't play. Oh,
22:22
I have no idea four our time. I mean, think about it.
22:26
What's the world's coming to. There's no bedlam. I mean it's the
22:29
last year of bedlam. I mean about that. It's it's utter chaos.
22:33
Cats and dogs living together. Well, it's absolutely ridiculous. So you got
22:36
two schools that close to each other played, I mean, and it almost
22:40
tests have been every year, and and great gates competitive games silly somebody's makings.
22:48
Don't you think that that game? So they're not gonna play next year?
22:51
But the head coach of schedule their first three games. Don't you think
22:56
that these two coach is going to get together and say, hey, we
22:57
need to play each other. It is my understanding that it is done and
23:03
we are niling. It is a done deal. That's the first. I
23:07
didn't even think to ask because I just assumed do it always happened, so
23:11
no more needs someone needs to publicly ask those questions. The Hooper game is
23:17
over. No, we can't let it happen. We will single handedly do
23:21
what we can to bring the game back next year. I agree, guys,
23:26
that's nonsense. I don't even know what to say. I know what,
23:30
all right, we had this next week. This next game is gonna
23:32
be a quick pick. And then we got a we got an important game
23:34
from last Saturday to recap. So, okay, Bartlesville at US Grant ballgame
23:42
on K one am fourteen hundred FM, ninety three point three, ninety five
23:47
point one video livestream, K one TV dot com. Bartlesville beats Booker T
23:52
for the fourth time ever, twenty one to ten first and fifteen tries.
23:56
Bruins got out to twenty one ten lead at halftime, and then teams just
24:00
kind of ran around a lot in the third and fourth quarters. Ballgame was
24:04
really long in the first half, lots of penalties, all kinds of stuff.
24:08
In the second half, nothing happened other than a bunch of punts and
24:11
turnovers on downs, but Bruins were up eleven. We'll take it. First
24:15
win over book or T since ninety five. P J. Wallace two hundred
24:18
and fifty four yards on the ground, two hundred and forty two yards in
24:23
the ground. I've had, sorry, thirty carries, two forty two,
24:26
two touchdowns, brought Eves through a touchdown pass. Bartlesville trying to get its
24:30
second win over US Grant, which is two and two. But they've played
24:36
kind of those teams in Oklahoma City that are struggling, those Oka SEPs teams.
24:41
They lost the Stillwater last week seventy six to seven. Okay, first
24:45
of all, I have to say that. I take great offense to number
24:48
one listener Cody Meat saying that I only picked the Bruins because I picked the
24:52
Bruins every week. I do pick the Bruins every week, but I also
24:56
provided a little bit of substance to four my So I really did think that
25:03
the Bruins had a chance going down there, because book or T is down
25:06
and if you we're gonna catch him, it was gonna be a year like
25:08
this. Okay. Secondly, I understand that PJ Wallace. I think they
25:14
announce it tomorrow or today or tomorrow, but I think PJ. Wallace is
25:18
going to be the VIPE Player of the Week, which is a really big
25:22
deal. And I think that his like I've called his coming out party for
25:27
Tulsa TV, has really garnered him some attention. I think Fox is running
25:33
a piece on him from going into this game this week, and that's awesome
25:40
for that kid. The team, you know, had a good game,
25:44
They've still got to clean it up a little bit. Guys. There's just
25:47
too many penalties and and I think if they can get that done, they're
25:52
going to settle in here and start district play and hopefully make a little bit
26:00
of a run. I really think they have it in them. They just
26:02
have to figure it out. US grant is terrible. Uh, it's a
26:06
it's a crime that they that they make them play all these teams. Uh.
26:11
The OSSAA really needs to figure something out with the city schools. I'm
26:15
serious when I tell you guys this. There was a proposal last year to
26:19
start a city schools league in Tulsa and Oklahoma City where the TPS and the
26:25
Oklahoma City Public school teams play each other. And that really would make a
26:30
lot of sense. And then you don't have classes or anything. They just
26:34
they just play each other. It's really not right what they do here.
26:37
But you play who's put in front of you, the Bruins will roll.
26:41
It'll be a running clock. I think it'll be a big score. Wow.
26:48
Can we just talk about reft You did call them that? Hey,
26:51
I mean I was I was the only one that went we seed. Last
26:55
week, Batch comes out and not only call Barsville but then also calls the
27:00
coming out party for Wallace. I agree with you as well that it's not
27:06
even fair. I think the US BRAIN is probably gonna suit up twenty nine
27:10
kids, thirty kids and at six eight football you just cannot do that and
27:12
be able to compute. They got to figure that out. It's gonna be
27:15
Bartersville big first half. Wallace's boy, he's got a chance to carry it
27:22
six times, maybe score four out of those six. But yeah, Barnsville
27:27
in a big win here. I'm not going to spend that much time talking
27:32
about this game. I mean, it's not even gonna be close. PJ.
27:37
Wallace carry the ball five times for one hundred and thirty five yards and
27:41
get him out two touchdowns and get him out of the ball game and let
27:45
him take his shoulder pads off and eat a hot dog. I don't care.
27:48
That will be you make a great point. It will be a chance
27:52
for some kids to get some time that really might help them down the road.
27:56
To point and offensively, look at your tendency that you've had the first
28:00
few games here, and then go play some games, do some different things.
28:06
You know, break your own tendencies. So one coaches, you know,
28:08
go and look at your film and put your stuff in the computer and
28:12
all that stuff. Break some of those tendencies. But don't do it with
28:15
some of your studs. You know, get it, get out healthy,
28:19
and that's it can I ask a question because Batch touched on this, but
28:26
I want to point it out because people ask me all the time, so
28:30
I wanted to get it in the in the show. US Grant by enrollment
28:34
is a six A two school. That's the reason why has to do with
28:40
the tendance. Yeah, So so why why is a program like US Grant
28:45
capital? Hell? What is it that makes them so far worse than everyone?
28:51
I well, what are they dealing with at those city schools that are
28:55
different than Bartlesville, Ponca City whatever. Just it's just extracurricular activities, apathy,
29:02
there's just not an interest in doing. Their band is also really small.
29:07
It's just that nobody does stuff outside of having to go to school every
29:12
day. Out of school like that. They just don't they aren't interested.
29:18
Yeah, yeah, I think that's a great question. So attendance is as
29:25
far as the numbers matchup, there's six A two, But for some reason,
29:29
they just cannot get kids out to play. So I don't know if
29:32
it's a coaching issue. I've asked myself that same question because I know back
29:38
in twenty fifteen, sixteen, when Barzelos start playing them and or when they
29:42
start playing the six A two. There were some nights that they had fifteen
29:47
sixteen kids on the sideline and you just cannot do that. So I don't
29:49
know if it's I mean, obviously a program issue, but whether or not
29:53
the coach is getting in those hallways those classrooms to get those kids out,
29:57
that's not at me. And you just cannot play with those numbers. It's
30:03
just that it never matches. And I'll point out it's not just football,
30:07
like Batch mentioned with the band, because Bartlesville's played Capitol Hill. I think
30:11
us Grant now back to back years in their baseball regional and they have softball
30:17
girls to fill out the baseball nine. Yeah, schools filled them now.
30:25
Last week on the home field at Custer Stadium, a school that or a
30:32
program that rev is real familiar with Claren Moore Christian or Sea Eagles or Sequoia
30:38
was it Sequoia? Okay? They came in to take on the third grade
30:44
Bruin White, who lost to them in the playoffs last year in spectacular fashion,
30:49
and towards the end of the game, the coach was still throwing,
30:52
still calling timeouts, doing some really really unsportsmanlike type things, and so the
31:00
Brew and White had this games circled on their schedule for quite a while.
31:03
Nighthawk, why don't you go ahead and let us know what happened. Well,
31:07
first of all, there was even a bigger win because we were the
31:11
better team. So you put us, on paper words, the better team.
31:15
We've got, you know, sixteen seventeen kids out, which is a
31:18
good number for youth football. They have twelve. So the really good game,
31:25
and I want to call out the parcel. Navy played to Watso and
31:29
they beat him. I'm sorry Jinks, Jinks Maroon and on paper Jinks Maroon
31:33
was supposed to win win that game, and Barcel came out. It was
31:36
a great game. I don't know if you got watched it, but it
31:38
was zero to zero. Jinks Broom was down first and goal from the one.
31:44
Bartelsville gets the turnover. Then they went and scored, and then they
31:48
scored. They had a big long run to end the game. So I
31:53
passed off to that. Those guys obviously won't practice. Somebody. We eat
31:57
tact us right next to each other. So let's fast forward to the twelve
32:02
thirty games. Clare Morskoy would beat its last year thirty to six. And
32:07
to your point, the coach, I thought, at the end of the
32:10
game, you know when you're when you got the game one, you're up
32:14
twenty four points, don't call it time out and don't grow the football that
32:17
doesn't know in any good but very good football team last year, this year,
32:22
they're just not the same. I think they lost a bunch of kids.
32:24
Our kids were ready. It's really cool to see these young kids at
32:30
this age. Not only did f coaches circle, but our kids circled it
32:35
because a lot of kids from last year's team are on this year's seats and
32:38
end up winning. You know, we scored three times, it was six.
32:40
Nothing has happened. Then we came out and scored a couple of times
32:44
and the second half and is that point eighteen? Nothing? Funny thing is
32:49
the only thing that was the same is you know their coach didn't even sick
32:52
our hands afterwards. There we go. There it is. I mean,
32:57
hey, I love the rivalry that's building here, don't you. This is
33:00
two years in an I love it. I wouldn't watch this game. And
33:05
if you are a youth football coach out there, please do not yell and
33:08
scream at them kids constantly why they're on the field. It's it's nonsense.
33:14
You look silly. Stop it. It doesn't help. And sequoilia their coaches.
33:19
Somebody needs to tell them to calm down little bit, because they were.
33:22
But I love what Nighthawk is talking about this third grade group, and
33:27
I've heard this fourth grade group too. There's a there's a couple of those
33:30
fourth grade teams that are also really good. We got some good young players
33:32
coming up. Yeah. I watched the end of the other third grade game
33:37
too. It was exciting. Yeah, it was exciting. Okay, we
33:39
have a big announcement, big announcement of it. Here we go, big
33:44
announcement. Yeah, I'm excited. Okay. First of all, I can't
33:47
wait for Brood fans to get inside that stadium and see this new video board.
33:52
They lit it up yesterday while I was over there. It's way cool.
33:57

before the game? I think over under is at seven and so you'll have
36:57
to determine that yourself. Now, now take there's a little bit of a
37:00
tongue in cheek there, because Tate and I have a thing about hot dogs
37:04
