With weather starting to be more of a factor, I was curious which teams most of you would consider ground and pound type teams. I'll list a few I know of or am pretty sure of.

Thomas usually is from District 1
Hobart, Frederick, Sayre, and Hinton are primarily run teams from District 2
3 has The big boy from Cashion, Watonga's option game(which might be problematic in weather as well), Crescent maybe? Minco is balanced or was.
4 has Ringling, Dibble, Elmore City for sure. I think Rush and Walters are pretty balanced but not sure. Apache usually slings it a bunch.
5 Pawnee, if Morrison still runs wing-T them, But I think the rest are balanced or sling it(Am I right?)
6 no clue
7 Wayne runs it a bunch, wynnewood is usually more run than anything, Stroud is usually more balanced I think(right?)
8. From the past, I'd say Gore, Savannah, Hulbert, and Talihina but its been awhile.

Any insight from the east side?

It does make it though for some I'm sure. I can only speak for Minco, but they have a good quick game. Anything inside 30 yards the rain shouldn't affect. The QB in Minco is a stud and can drive the ball 50+ down field with ease and has all year with great accuracy, but I don't see that happening tonight.

I agree. Have seen him play.

On a side note, Mooreland beats Thomas, so I guess Thomas will now be ranked 9th. Starting to think that district isn't as strong as in the past. And did Apache get healthy all of a sudden. They won tonight over Elmore City. What does that do to the playoff picture? All eyes in District 2 and 5 look to week 10, the way God intended it to be.

They have great kids up there but are down a little this year.

Good win last night mtown. Now that y’all have played CHA and Watonga, what’s your take on that game next week? I have been leaning CHA, but I haven’t seen Watonga, so it’s not much of an educated guess on my part.

Last night was nasty, cold and rainy. It was also senior night. The boys had to stand outside for along time and they were freezing.

Having said that, the first quarter was really sluggish. Minco dropped around 6 balls on offense 2 of witch would have gone for TD's. On defense we dropped 5 balls, also 2 would have gone for 6. CHA was a really sound team, fast to the football and finished well. They are planning a freshman quarterback that did a pretty good job. #7 a receiver is a stud! The kid made some amazing catches last night. We could have shaded a safety his way as we ran cover 2 but our db was really in good position all night. CHA can also run the ball pretty well and I believe they are one of the best coached teams in the state.

Having played both CHA and Watonga I'd give the edge to CHA because they can throw the football and Watonga is pretty one demential. Also I lost all respect for Watonga! They play dirty, they try to bate you into a fight and are as foul mouthed as I've ever heard and this includes their coaching staff.

Watonga is much improved from last year, and they have talent. So you better take them serious. Just my 2¢.

Starting QB from CHA is hurt, freshmen threw 5 interceptions. Minco controller the line of scrimmage and ran the ball pretty much at will. CHA will have no trouble with Watonga or Crescent and will face Ringling first round. Ringling can’t pass the ball but they can run it big time. Will be interesting matchup I would say if the starting QB isn’t back for CHA then Ringling wins

The field conditions are gonna be just as bad next week if not worse than it was this week. The way the weather will be next week I believe Watonga will beat CHA because all they do is run the ball and CHA is more of a passing team that can run a little.

I guess we’ll see. Like I said, I haven’t seen Watonga but I have seen CHA. Conditions were bad in Minco last night and CHA lost by two TDs while throwing 5 ints. That’s not too bad considering all of that.
Conditions were bad in Watonga and they lost by 40 to Cashion. Seems like Watonga is the team that couldn’t handle the conditions to me.

Plus, at some point you have to just go play football, regardless of the weather. And I’m not seeing any rain for Thursday or Friday in Del City. I’d much rather play on a wet field than playing in the rain, especially if I’m a throwing team.

Are they young or has the talent just ran out finally?

They didn’t lose much according to dtrain. Biggest names I remember them losing were Peters and Odom (I believe the two that moved to Ada) and the Ashley kid (believe someone said he decided to rodeo full time). Still have Patterson and the Grove kid came back out this year at QB. He was the best player on the field for them against Stroud this year.

I know Patterson and Grove will be gone after this year. That will hurt some. I don’t know about the rest of their team. But no one else stood out for them to me, last year or this year, IMO.

I think it probably has something to do with the coaching change, and with the new staff a change of philosophy, which can of course throw a "monkey wrench" into the works initially, even with an experienced and talented group. But like johnsmith intimates, dtrain is more qualified to speak to the poor showing this year from Wynnewood.
