Webb Vs Kearney

1. Someone else brought up the ten year history. I just extended it three more years to make a point.
2. 2008 and 2009 are relevant because Webb was held to 14 and 13 in those games...in years where they were averaging 40+ a game on offense. And that was the Jones staff coaching those teams.
3. I just like twisting Webbies a little, because Kearney is 3-1 at your place.

Webb City wasn't really "held" to 14 in 2008. Boo Rodgers had a pick 6 and chose to take a knee rather than score. The general point is correct that Kearney has done better than any team in recent history of defending Webb City.

I do think WC is a more versatile on offense than the 2008-09 editions not that it really matters. I think the game is going to be closer to the 2008 game than the 2009 or 2014 games.

I think the 2009 Kearney team had more blue chips...if I'm not mistaken. One NFL player and several D1 players...
 
Kearney's starting D has only given up 56 points this year... You're talking pretty big considering Webb is 1-3 versus Kearney at home.
Kearney is 3-2 at Webb losing in 1989 and 2014 winning in 02'03'09 but Kearney has never beat Webb when they have hosted the game in Kearney. The overall record btwn these 2 schools is 3-3

The one NFL player was gone by then and one D1 player on the team but did have several D2 players

Having to play kids with a future in the sport has never really scared Webb city's players before. I seem to remember one dorial green Beckham being held to well under 100 (like 54 I think)yards for the only time all season a few years back by a bunch of kids that went on to do things that didn't involve playing football. Now DGB is carching touchdowns for the titans.. That being said, Kearny's speed, quickness, swarming d, high octane passing attack, (-their best reciever) is the last thing on webbs mind. They will have a gameplan. A damn good gameplan, as they do week in and week out. Everyone wants to talk about the Kearny d and how much better than anyone else. Let's not forget about how good the webb d has been this year and especially down the stretch. Watch the way those boys lay it all on the line and leave it all on the field for Smitty in his last game. If webbs offense can manage to score twice then it's bye bye bulldogs.
 
Stop talking! You have absolutely ZERO knowledge about this.
I have much more knowledge on that situation than you give me credit for. But the Webb radio broadcast talked to Coach Smith after the game last week about it being his last game. The part where they talk to Smith happens around the 3:14:15 mark in this video. So maybe YOU should get your facts in check before you go around calling people mouth breathers........

Because Webb usually has players that are playing at the next level, and their share that went to the NFL...

WC was minus a couple all-state starters including the star of the 2008 game. My gut feeling is that Kearney was the better team anyway though it would have made for a much closer game.

Joe Windsor was very impressive for Kearney . I don't think he made a lot of tackles but he definitely affected the WC game plan.

Over the last 15 years the Webb crystal balls have worked great except when they face Kearney, I remember very well back in 09 some of Webb's crystal said Ashton Hiatt may he rest is peace was to slow to run the ball vs Webb I think if memory serves me correct he carried the ball like 11 times in row in the 4th qtr driving the ball. I sat in the stands thinking yep that boy seen those post and was on a mission. I can't copy and paste those remarks but the honest Webb fan will admit it happened. Either way I think this will be the best matchup between the two ever I see two very equal teams may not end up that way on the scoreboard but I look for a very good game that could go either way.

I didn't say they didn't have. I know they have a few each yr that go play at a higher level,(most of them NAIA or division II) but not near as many as Kearny or some other schools have had go division one or beyond to the pros. Stick to cal preps Joey. You going to the game? I'll give you the points cal preps is giving em plus a couple if you'd like.

I was shouted down by two Kearney fans earlier in the year (Like week 3) of the season, when I said this team is better than last year and the 2013 team. I stand by that. And I think the performance over the year has proven me right.

Honestly hard to tell. Kearneys defense and Webbs both on paper look first rate. Difference is Kearney's schedule this year was so much weaker than Webbs. No telling what Kearneys record would have been if they played Carthage, Rockhurst, Harber, Nixa, Ect instead of Central, Liberty, Ray South, Ruskin ect.

They gave up 21 to Liberty North who ended up with a decent record but not a great team by any means. Kearney might have the best defense in Class4 but they haven't really played many teams that tested them much so kind of hard to tell.

Liberty North: Hinck out of the game on the first drive..Pick six for one score. Fumble by backup on their own 15 for another. Pick on the 5. Think CJ game. 14-7? Only worse. It was 10-0, even with the backup...well on their way to a turbo... Any objective observer would see they play 10 times, Kearney turbos 4 times, beats soundly 5 times, and loses: 1. This was that one. LN only had 7 first downs and half the yards of K.

Har-ber, Harrisonville, Carthage and CJ are all rated higher than Hannibal and Westminster. But Kearney will be the second highest rated team that WC has faced this year.

Last year Kearneys defense gave up 154 points in 14 games. This year they have given up 131 points in 14 games. I don't understand how the 2015 version is supposedly a quantum leap better than last years?

If anything their offense has scored 158 more points this year than last years version

Big Difference between this year and last year...they Turbo clocked everyone they beat. So by the early second half to 4Q, all the points they are giving up are to the JV. Most of their games, the starters were out by the mid 3rd Q. Their starters only gave up 58 points. Go back and look at the box scores...Ruskin...14...garbage points, Excelsior Springs, 14...garbage points...JV, and so on and so forth. Liberty pick 6. Winnetoka..7 to the Sophomores at the end of the 4Q. Add it all up, and their starters have only given up 58 points. Against common opponents, they did much better than Fort Osage in the Class 5 final.

Everyone????.....I could have swore they lost a game

I've been to 13 of the 14 webb games this year and only heard about this Kearny powerhouse with no real interest in watching them play as I'll get to see them in the some on Friday. Hard to tell how good they are without watching them yes but I know how good webb is this year and refuse to compare any one team with another from years past bc the one constant is the coaching staff at webb and their ability to put together a gameplan to move on to the next week or in this case the next year with yet another piece of hardware for their hand and trophy case back home.
 
With the weather not being a factor on on game day...the K offense Could surprise the Webb defense. Not underestimating the Card by any means...But it won't be a cakewalk like most are predicting. The K defense will be ready for the running game. There are some "GHOST" key players that has been very humble under the radar... Should be a great game by two very disciplined teams... Hoping for an injury free gàme.
welcome to the board beccmoe and the KMO faithful know the ones you speak of and will contribute and I see Kearney being the underdog again but winning once again. Defense wins games and the Purple Swarm starting up front in the middle will get it done. Kearney 32 Webb 20

Most points Webb Defense has gave up all year is 26 to Harber then 20 to Rockhurst. No Mo class 4 or 5 team has scored more than 18. If Kearneys offense can do that they deserve the big trophy for sure

I'm well aware of the concept. I'm also aware that 97% of the people on this message board are mouth breathers that need help tying their shoes every morning. Predictions and opinions are awesome & I enjoy reading them. They entertain me. However, definitive statements that are void of fact or proof are ignorant & should be treated as such.

Hate to tell you Counter, but this is accurate. Will indeed be Smitty's last game.

I would have learned so much more if you had been posting all season instead of just the last few weeks. You are well informed on every subject
Ditto for you I suppose. As a long time poster here (just a dumb fan incidentally) curious about your HSFB acumen?
