Kearney 38, Smithville 14 FINAL
- Thread starter thetophat2021
- Start date
Absolutely flying all over that field all night. Frankly not sure what the heck Smithville will be able to devise to win the likely rematch in 9 weeks.
Not likely park hill not that good, NKC even worse, Grain Valley is not the team they normally are and won't be by then, ray South will be no challenge and same for winne and ex springs. KHS goes into districts 9-0
Besides the one running long play that set up TD, did SV ever drive across the 50 YL?
I’m thinking no. It was Kearney D 7 SV 7.
Starting D given up 7 points and has scored 16 points in 3 games.
Fort is a better team than SV. Game was 2 plays away from a turbo clock in 3Q

I am not remembering anything close to the 50 seems like they were stuck inside their own 30 all night.
No question there was nobody on Smithville's D anywhere near Thompson and, yep, it sure looked like turbo was gonna happen. No need to go for that in the regular season, though.
Smithville special teams were disastrous, frankly. Fixable but, again, just not sure what the heck they could find to make this one much closer when the two 95+ percent meet for it all in 9 weeks up the street............
Staley upset Park Hill last night. They seem to have really dropped since beating what I still think is a very good Rock Bridge in 3 OT to open 2024.
You have seen them in person me just replays but totally agree. KMO looks now to roll at least to Week 6 just gotta avoid those "key" injuries.
Im curious to see how this ages. Liberty's D has looked like it was humming the last 2 weeks and rebuild or not, to hold a LN team to under 100 total yards and one score was pretty spectacular
K and L have 3 mutual opponents so i will reconvene on this when i have more data on the matter
So 38-7 in early 4Q. I didn’t count on K’s specials. Wow. Kearney offense ran about half the plays that the Ville ran.
D Line and LBs had a lot to do with that the Warriors O Line never stood a chance but yes the backs are making the plays thus far. Amazing how things change in-season, too. Not sure KMO has one team on the slate (GV maybe Week 6) that truly will be able to hold up on the lines.
More data available. Liberty loses to Park Hill. Kearney almost turboed Park Hill.
Uh, you missed the game. K easily coulda had 14-17 more points in that game. Squandered.
Liberty 41 Ray South 12 (6 in 1Q)
Kearney 50 Ray South O
Liberty 17 Park Hill 20
Kearney 38 Park Hill 17
Blue Springs South 41 Liberty 24 - At least the Summer camp version. No way BSS scores more than 14 on K in a game.
Kearney D giving up 4.2 a game. Virtually every point given up has come from big plays. Better D than Liberty. Better line. Better linebackers. Maybe not better pass D? 5/7 opponents did not have more than 50 yards rushing.
The numbers are now showing it to be the best K defense since 2009.

I told the folks around me at the Lafayette-Eureka game don't worry I have a feeling I will be back in STL next month but maybe a bit more nervous/boisterous..................
