Damon started the game and Cody finished it. Cody threw two passes and got us in the end zone, and I think he was 4-of-15 for 101 for the game. |
I'm glad to see us score some points. We got to play a lot of kids and this was a good win on the road. Anytime you have to travel two and a half hours on the bus, you're always happy to get the win. |
In the first quarter we played with them, but at the end of the quarter they go up 7-0. On offense we were moving it on them, but we had penalties at the wrong times that hurt us. We moved the ball but they big-played us to death. |
Our kids didn't quit. We talked at halftime and on our opening drive we go down and score. In the second half our defense held them to 47 yards of total offense. We came back in the second half, but we just came up a little bit short. |
Our kids never quit, but we just never tackled well and the kicking game, especially, hurt us. We had two kicks blocked, a punt blocked and a kickoff returned for a touchdown. That hurt us tremendously. |
Picher didn't lose a whole lot off last year's team, except for the running back (Keith Freeman) who went to Miami. We had to work hard for whatever we got, but our kids were definitely in better shape than a year ago. |
We shot ourselves in the foot offensively last year. We have to sustain drives and not stop ourselves with penalties and fumbles. Our running game is better this year and I really think we'll be okay. |
We're pretty well out (of the playoff picture) so we'll play for pride the last couple of weeks and get ready for next year. |
You're either on the road or in the ditch. |
