If you are trying to say there was a drinking incident at Boone involving Kam and/or Bryson, then I call BS on you. Why would you want to fabricate something and drag these kids names out there? Shame on you.

I expected more from this team too, but... How many of the kids you named as talent for Boone are Seniors? I thought this team would perform better, but the team lost 28 seniors from the team that went to the state semi's a year ago. The team needs a QB to at least give the threat of the pass. Both Ingolia & Schulze are "gamers" who play the game hard, but neither demand any respect from opposing defenses. Pack 8-9 guys in the box it becomes difficult to ground & pound. Every team has to deal with injuries through a football season, but Boone was hit early & often. I would agree with those who criticize the lack of imagination in the Rebel offense. I think the staff would like to open things up, but I don't think the current group has a QB that they trust to throw the ball with any success. Priority #1 has to be to start developing and using QB's. I thought last year that Kam Schwartz gave the team a reliable, talented QB that the staff trusted for the first time in a long time. The team probably misses him more than anyone else because they didn't develop a replacement.

Boring game. Not sure if either team completed a pass. No joke. Seriously don't think either team had a completed pass. Punt return before half set the tone for the rest of the game. Hope Boone's QB is okay. He got crushed helmet to helmet while trying to pickup a fumble in the 2nd quarter & did not return. Boone then became even more one dimensional on offense (if that is even possible) after that. I want those 3 hours of my life back!

Oh brother! Don't get me started on the taking a knee thing. That is a girls soccer thing that somehow found its way onto the football field. Be mindful that a player is injured. Be respectful. But you do not have to take a knee. Coaches can coach, players can listen even while a player is hurt. It is not bush league. It is football. Sorry, if that is not politically correct, but it is the truth.

Conner's O-Line vs Cooper's D-Line is the match-up that I am most interested to see. If Conner can't handle them, then this game could be a blow out for Cooper. If they can, then it may be a track meet, and despite last week, I like Conner in a track meet. If I were coaching Conner, I would make sure that someone is hitting Morris every play he is on the field playing defense. Conner might be able to wear him down physically. Should be fun tonight...

How many kids from that Freshman team are still playing at Ryle as Seniors? Based upon what I saw last year I would say a decent number of good football players have decided to do something other than play football at Ryle. The sideline looked like a 1A or 2A sideline. Seemed like Ryle was having big problems getting players to come out for the team. Not sure if it has gotten better this year, but my guess based upon what I'm reading on BGP is no...

Yes, sorry, as Guru said, I was just trying to say that Dixie scored a late TD after the outcome was decided and the final score was 34-13, not 34-7. I can see how you could interpret my post as a slam on Dixie, but that is not what I intended.

Dixie scored in garbage time 34-13 final.

Wow. Where were the defenses tonight?

Rebels shoot self in foot with 3 offensive penalties after moving ball inside dixie 10. Miss fg. 34-7 boone w 4:30 left.

Start 4th. 34-7. Boone has ball.

34-7. 25-30 td run for marshall. Boone's o-line dominant.

They have as good a chance as anyone of winning district. I am sure the team is not happy being 0-5, BUT... They have lost 5 games against tough competition in which they were probably underdogs. I think most would agree they have been hit by injury harder than most. They have a young team that lost 28 seniors from last year and were expected to improve as the year progressed. I will not be surprised if they run the table in district. I will not be surprised if they get beat every game. I think it would be foolish to count them out at this point.

After watching Conner & Cooper play Boone, I won't make a prediction on the outcome of the game, other than to say I predict I will be there and it will be a good game. Cooper's defense looks to be the real deal. Ditto Conner's offense. Anyone could easily predict a 2 TD victory for either of these teams, but these teams appear evenly matched, each with different strengths. Having Morris play both ways would be a HUGE concern for me were I a Cooper fan. He will wear down as the season wears on

Thought Boone threw the ball a lot last night, mostly unsuccessfully. Seemed like they were trying a ton of short sideline passes. The interception before half was on a slant about 10 yards from the line of scrimmage, the DB jumped the route. Boone did have a receiver break open on an out and up in the 4th, but the QB over threw the ball instead of getting some air under it and letting his wideout run under it. Too bad because it would have been a long TD as he was probably 5 yards clear of the DB. Cooper's d-line did a good job against both run and pass, Boone's QB did not have much time in the pocket and they rolled him out on at least half of his attempts.
