The only Lamar players to make first OR second team were two o-linemen and two d-lineman...
That’s laughable!

Class 4 Coach of the Year was awarded to the Strong Winds...that kept PC from putting up 21 points a half on Webb.

Lamar also had their middle linebacker chosen. But, Lutheran North and Lafayette County had 7 each compared to Lamar's 5. Teams that Lamar beat on their way to #7. The biggest joke is that Ava, a team that played Lamar as well as either of those two teams, had 0 players selected. That is ridiculous.
Wind was non factor in that game, dying down in the 4 th qt. Their QB had a cannon, wind did not affect him in any way to those of us who were there. They had the wind right before halftime and the determining factor had nothing to do with the wind but it was the WC D.
Webb's best passing plays of the game were against the wind, they scored two td against the wind and PC scored their last td and two point conversion, you guessed it against the wind. The reason the score was low was WC defense, and the main issue WC had was how good and well the coached the PC team was. Didn't follow PC much thru the year or how they were doing but by this game they were tough as nails and as good as any team Ive seen WC play in a semi final in several years. So the wind, just stop! I must say that was some very good stink bait you've been throwing out since that game though.
To say the wind was a non factor is ignorant. It very obviously was. Webb's D was the main factor, but the wind was the 2nd biggest factor. A windy day is a HUGE advantage for Webb in that matchup.
That said, I don't think it necessarily changed the final outcome, but it affect the number of points scored.
By saying that you didn't follow PC throughout the year, you have already ruled out your ability to say if the wind affected the game because you aren't able to tell how the wind affected PC's play calling.
Agree saying wind non factor was not correct, it was to a point but like you said it didn't change the outcome of the game, just got tired of seeing joey of no return use it to say its the reason WC won. I assure you JRod would say the problem that day was not the wind but playing a well coach team. You can call me whatever you want, Ive been called much worse. Where you there that day? PC QB had 300 yds passing against one of the best D in class 4. I will just plead ignorance, but the way their QB threw the ball with the wind or without didn't seem to bother him at all. He was terrific. Of the 5 td scored that day, 3 into the wind which I stated died way down in the 4th.
Also gotta love all these anonymous posters who can say whatever they want and call people names. Anyone who wants to get in touch with me its no secret.
I can promise you coach Rod couldn't care less about ever winning a coach of the year award. His concern is for his players and that they become the best player and people that they can be and have a happy and successful life. I think he's done very well in that area. And his 11 state championship rings speak for themselves!
I was there. I think with no wind, PC wins. Unfortunately for them, the conditions are part of it. It was a good game. The better team that day won.
You could very well be right but I think with no wind Webb has a different defensive strategy with much more pressure. Just my opinion, and I agree the better team won that day. I would probably pick PC over Ladue if I had to bet on it.
When two great teams play, I find myself wondering "if they played ten times what would be the outcome"? I think in the Platte County game, it might be pretty close to 5-5 or 6-4. But in the end the only outcome that matters is the one that actually took place.
When you look up, "Can't win the big one." in the football Encyclopedia...you'll find the 68-75 Oakland Raiders, the Buffalo Bills, the Minnesota Vikings, and the Platte County Pirates. They should have rolled to the state championship in 2016. Way better team than Kearney or Harrisonville...but they choked out in the 1st half on Kearney. This year, they outplayed Webb in the first half (come on...they dominated it for the most part)..but the scoreboard didn't show it. Then they outscored Webb in the second half...but it was pretty evenly played in the 2nd half. Key was Webb controlling the clock. Even through Webb was outgained and had fewer First downs, they were able to eke out a victory.
