Not sure what game you watched RomanEmpire Conner didn't look like a 5A contender. Beechwood looked like the better team. Nussbaum was the best player on the field. Beechwoods defense was in Conners back field a bunch of times. I also heard Colin Justice is playing on the line now. Number 16 looked good at QB for Beechwood. So what was the story with Conner's starting QB?

 

Beechwood is one of the better small schools in the state aren't they?

Beechwood may have looked like the better team, but obviously they were not since they lost. I don't know what was going on with Beechwood tonight but they had a ton of penalties in the first half. They had a few personal fouls, a horse collar and a block in the back. Given it was a scrimmage, they can't expect to win big games if they have that many big penalties.

First 30 minutes was varsity then the next 30 minutes was JV then 10 minutes was Varsity again. Conner beat a team had all its players playing both ways. South Oldham and Cooper will crush Conner.

S Oldham and Cooper will be tough.

So why didn't Barker play? You know about every college visit the kid has. He didn't look hurt he was tossing the football during warmups.

Barker suspended for the night is what I heard.

That is what I figured I just wanted to here RomanEmpire or Clyde say it.

I'm betting Coach Trosper knew you were there, and wanted to keep Barker's talent under wraps so you can keep up the foolish talk.

After a long physical camp, Conner rested six starters. Including Barker. And from the looks of it, 3 touchdowns to 1, those starters didn't have to play. I'd venture to say, that if those boys played, it would have been a lot worse. Nobody on beechwoods defense could catch Fogle out of the backfield, I can't imagine how it would have been with him at receiver, and Barker throwing it to him. I'd venture to say their corners wouldn't have been able to cover him, or the other two starting receivers that sat out, But That's just a Guess.

Please explain how Beechwood tackled Fogle several times? Fogle did have a fumble that Beechwood recovered. You Conner fans must be on Fantasy Island!

Fogle did impress me on the long run. He didn't pull away from Nussbaum and Erdman but they couldn't catch him either. I thought Nussbaum was going to catch him as he neared the goal line but he just couldn't quite get to him. Very nice display of speed by Fogle.

 

Which six starters did Conner rest tonight? I didn't notice anyone other than Barker sitting out.

Beechwood lost 20 Seniors from last year. So basically returned a couple starters and hung with the 5A Conner team who their fans think will win state.

If Nussbaum didn't catch him that tells you the kid can run. Max has some wheels.

If Nussbaum didn't have to play every down he would have caught him.

All the Conner hype I have heard all off season. They looked like an average team at that.
