Unfortunately, this years squad is not as deep as we have experienced in the past and playing a fairly challenging schedule we have been hit pretty hard by the injury bug and those backups we are depending on to step up aren't quite up to the test.  Tonight we played without our 2 starting corners and at times the Purdy kid was able to make big plays against those very backups.  Hope by the first or second round of the playoffs we will get some of them back including a couple OL and maybe those corners.  One of our top RB's broke a foot and doubt we will get him back this year which forces us to use a talented safety to fill in at times.  Against the top tier teams we have to grind out 10-12 play drives which has little margin for error if we get behind the chains with a sack, holding penalty or any negative play.   As I previously stated, luckily we aren't in 6A R1 which has a handful of teams that would give us trouble.  Thanks for the plug though. 

I didn't think I could top last week's pitiful performance.  Well, I topped it.   I actually got more this week but missed a few that could've gone either way and second guessed myself on a few other picks when I should've known better.  Looking forward to 2026.  Good luck to everyone that made the post season cut! 7-9

I was one of the ones that picked you guys. Tough lost bro, but bounce back next week. Everything is still right there in front of the kowboys 

Are these money games where they get an ass whooping but receive a big check?  That would make sense since fund raising is hard.

Watching the Pick'Ems for this match, I was surprised everyone picked us as I expected a tight game thinking along the lines of LAZ margin of a 2 pt. victory.   It could have easily been that or more had we finished the plays that were there to be made as we dropped 2 easy touchdown passes in the endzone, plus on a separate drive deep in Lake Wales territory we dropped an easy 3rd down conversion pass that would have kept another drive alive around the redzone.   Props to Lake Wales as on the flip side every single opportunity they had to make a play they did.......no drops, no missed open receivers and no critical penalties that would jeopardize a drive or keep one of ours alive.  Can't really criticize the officiating as my eyesight isn't the best and some of the calls like helmet to helmet on their sideline on a critical 3rd and 6 that one might deem questionable when we got a stop, gave them new life and led to a score.  That happened a couple of times.  Our coaching staff called a great game and overall our QB did his job well but when you are depending on 16, 17 year olds it is truly unpredictable.  Our ground game probably gained somewhere around 250 yards while we pretty much stuffed theirs.  The Purdy kid they have at WR and plays both ways is definitely a talent.  This will pretty much relegate us to the #3 seed in our region thus requiring travel in the 2nd round probably to South Lake.   Haven't reported scores the past few weeks as we won several games we should have easily won and didn't feel a need to crow about it.  GO KOWBOYS!!
