Several awesome matchups this week:

Nixa @ Webb

Lebanon @ Joplin

Glendale @ Willard

Waynesville @ Republic

Ozark @ Carthage

Kickapoo @ Neosho

There is potentially 5 close games this week...I don't think there will be, but it is possible.

Good grief.

First half: Ravens already have had tackles lined up “in the backfield” 4 times. But KC? No

35-14 over Blue Springs

Anybody have a score?

So far looks like some good jockeying for position and these are definitely up in the air because of good splits in all 3 games tomorrow:

CaptainMullet and HermanBoone (who was solo Liberty pick, congrats) are leading with 19 pts.

Veer2Eternity and HHSX2 are close in tow with 18.

Several have 17 and on down the line................

Will do my best to update after the first two regularly scheduled games but there will be a gap tomorrow evening because it is POOL, DARTS and COLLEGE BALL time at the local watering hole (my Dad trying to teach me how to be a masters pool shooter is a whole new comedy routine) so will post everything most likely Sunday Morning along with what will be a GREAT Week 3 slate. GOOD LUCK everyone!

As promised 19 games are featured this week (Games of the Week and the slate in general were altered by what makes all of this so much fun - Week 1 unexpected results):

University Academy at KIPP KC Legacy (5 PM Thursday)
Blue Springs at Lee's Summit
Blue Springs South at Park Hill South

ON to Week 2 which appears will begin THURSDAY evening but no games are confirmed (I have a huge reshuffling job ahead of me given some of these results tonight! Look for games to post on the customary Sunday morning. WOW what a night! See you then..................

Lutheran North scores on 1 play on 66 yard pass.

Watched it live and couple times afterwards don’t understand at all why he got a flag

This weeks games

MV 1-0 @ Seneca 1-0 Has to be the game of the week in the conference. Wish this was a little later in the season.
Mac County 0-1 @ cAssville 0-1 One of these teams will come out with a win in this young season.
Monett 0-1 @ Strafford 1-0
The Newt 1-0 @ Lamar 1-0 Who would have thought this would be the battle of the unbeaten.
Nevada 1-0 @ Aurora 0-1 Aurora could pull off an upset at home this week.

Who had that one their Week 2 KC metro game of the week bingo card coming into the season? Would love to read thoughts about this one.

I am heading to the battle of Liberty this evening very interesting to see how these two play after one was upset by the aforementioned Tigers while Liberty North had to escape last second to prevail in their home opener................

Posted overnight. Another good read although gotta confess still scratching head why the "Highway 92 rivalry" ended vs. Kearney.

On another note looks like no KMO preview yet again this year on 810..................what the Sam heck gives with that?

Do they have some exception in high school for the punt team that they only have to have 5 men on the line of scrimmage? 🤔
