"Automatic Max" has now hit on 55 consecutive PAT attempts. He's just a junior, so he'll work on that record for sure should he remain perfect against Highlands next week.

 

Also, senior TE Ryan Wallace set a new standard for TD receptions by a TE at BGHS with his seventh of the season tonight!

 

It was a big test of the Purples' intestinal fortitude tonight, and they passed the test with flying colors! OHS folks and players...DO NOT hang your heads! You had a great season this year, and my personal congratulations on such! I never would have dreamed that the Purples would have hung 35 on that magnificent defense of yours. The commentators for our station said several times of players from both teams getting up woozy after collisions on the field...a typical old WKC football game!

 

The Purples move on to face Highlands next week...just like most everybody thought at the start of the season!

 

Sic 'em, Purple!!!!:thumb:

 

You're assuming he gets a chance to kick a P. A. T.

Well good luck to the purples next week at papa john's. Very good team. I felt that if we had a few calls that went the other way the game might have been a little closer but I still feel the better team won the game tonight. Automatic MAX has a nice leg and talked to my son after the game and had some nice things to say to him which proved that MAX is truly a class act. I am proud of our guys for a wonderful season and to those seniors that will now be leaving us I just want to add that it has truly been a pleasure to watch all of you this year you guys are true champions in my book regardless.

I hope your players have the same over confidence!!

Thanx, 58! And thanx also for the first class way you represent your Alma Mater. I always say that one should be a Goodwill Ambassador if you are going to support your program, and you do that very well! We're sorry that we couldn't come up and meet you, wcj800, and radio guy, but we will meet someday for sure! Stay in touch!

 

That is OK we will get another chance I am sure to meet. I have a feeling this will not be the ast playoff game between the Devils and the Purples. Plus my son will be there for 3 more years.

If you are correct, at least his streak will still be intact. And, as they say on Sports Center, "You can't stop them, you can only hope to contain them"!!!!

 

BGHS has myraid of offensive weapons. Stop them one way, and they will beat you in another way. They rang up the states best defensive for 35 pts last night, and they could have gotten another one. But, coach Wallace decided to run the clock down instead.

 

Good luck to the Birds....

 

 

Go Purples!!!!!!:dancingpa:dancingpa

Owensboro did a great job...nothing to be down about!!!! They did not give up and really showed that they are a team in all definition of team! Great job guys. Be very proud of yourselves!!!!!

By the way, not too many QBs have ever started THREE championship games in a row, but Trent Steelman joins that small select group next week barring injury!

 

Why wouldnt he be playing? Did he get banged up last night?

And now, I think that Mrs PH and I will do a modest victory twist...well, okay, a big one for a big win that put us in the championship game for the third year in a row!!:dancingpa:dancingpa:dancingpa:dancingpa:dancingpa:dancingpa

Jim Kelly has that same record in the NFL.

There are still practices and everyday life. No, he did not get banged up last night.

We are talking young men who do not get paid, not the big bucks men!

Hey Purplehaze, best of luck this comming weekend. I hope its your time & the Puples bring home a state title!

I guess Bowling Green must be used to 7:30 kickoffs. Once they woke up it was all Purples.

 

Bowling Green outgained Owensboro 339 (136 rush, 203 pass) to 142 ( 78 rush, 64 pass), after turning the ball over on 5 straight possessions.

 

BG's QB runs the fake handoff better than anyone I have seen lately. Several times I had no idea he still had the ball. I think even the refs were fooled on the TD run. Rash stadium was loud so it was hard to hear, but it seemed like they blew the whistle when the RB got tackled even though the QB had the ball on the other side of the field.

 

I sat on the BG side and heard the following exchange from a couple of their fans in the 1st quarter that I thought was funny after the 5th early turnover. It was 13-0 at that time.

 

With reference to the whistle, the official explanation given to both coaches was that, in fact none of the 5 officials blew the whistle. They asserted that on the play a whistle was blown from the stands or I should say by a non-official.
