Might have had something to do with the fact they wanted to avoid lightning/thunder delays. There were plenty of other games played on grass throughout the state.

 

Again, how many were moved? Jeez. It's a simple question

Why did a boatload of other schools in the state move their games? Just saying. Every other NKY game played tonight was on turf.

 

The momification of football.

 

Here is the whole thing in a nutshell without being biased. Both teams had to play in the same conditions so it is what it is. The fact of the matter is that it was the weather and the Cougars vs. SK. The weather was definitely the great equalizer. It was impossible for Shearer to throw the ball around. Not just because of the footing but the grip on the ball as well. Conner attempted more passes because they had to but their QB was flinging wounded ducks up there because he couldn't grip the ball either. SK's oline and defense won the game in the trenches. That's the way it had to be. Is Conner that good? I don't know. Is SK only 7 points better than Conner. Absolutely not!! I can only speculate but if this game is played on a dry field I say SK's passing game wins this by at least 3 touchdowns. I guess we won't know unless they meet in the playoffs somewhere. I would say that this game should never have been played. I think Trosper played it because he saw the rain and mud as an equalizer. He was right but also very arrogant and selfish. Football is a tough sport as it is. He put players from both teams in danger of catastrophic injury tonight because of his arrogance. This game should've been moved to last night or tomorrow at SK. Regardless, a win is a win and, in the grand scheme of things, it is a meaningless win because the district is all that matters. Good luck to the Cougars the rest of the way. I hope both teams made it out without any traumatic losses due to injury. I know both teams are banged up after tonight. I hope Trosper is happy with the result.

 

Bolded is a bit dramatic.

You realize by trying to say it wasn't a good showing by Conner that you diminish SK's win, right? :lol2:

 

You realize if this game was played yesterday SK would have won big. It doesn't matter if it is a 1 point game or 60 point win. A win is a win.

The momification of football.

Maybe a bit dramatic but, in this day and age, there are alternatives as proven by the moving of many games. I personally also think that Trosper is trying to make a case with the Boone County School Board to get turf for Conner at the expense of his players.

Conner is raising money for a turf field.

Right but the school board still has to approve.

Pretty sure everything has been approved. They just have to raise the money.

Matt Shearer uses his legs to lead Simon Kenton over Conner

Nope. Boone had the money raised years ago when Shawn Alexander offered to pay for theirs. The BCSB said no because Conner wouldn't have turf. Their thinking is that if one gets it they all do. Ryle has turf because they were tricky about it. Heck, the BC schools don't even get buses to athletic events other than football. The fight will still be on even after Conner has the money.

I believe Conners QB got hurt in the 3rd quarter and another Conner player.

 

Highlands had twice as many players get hurt last night on a dry field. Enough said about the field conditions.

Conner only beat Boone 21-13. Ryle just waxed Boone 48-0.

 

You realize if this game was played yesterday SK would have won big. It doesn't matter if it is a 1 point game or 60 point win. A win is a win. :lol2:

 

Some people judge teams by the final score. You want to talk about Highlands loss, but make up excuses why SK only scores 14 points. Will SK drop a spot on the NKY poll?

This week SK received this. SK Oline unit of the week.

I will say this Conner has something good going on in Hebron. NKY Bandits have some really good football players coming up in a couple years Conner will be playing real good football.

Conner plays Scott next.

It's clear that you are badly misinformed about both the Shawn Alexander/Boone and Ryle situations. I hope Conner is successful in raising funds for turf installation that has been approved by the board just like Boone and Ryle as long as you raise the entire amount and go through the bid process to select the turf contractor. Not too tricky.
