Was at the Hooker Fairview game the other night and not too impressed with Hooker. It was 9-8 Hooker after 1, 20-19 Fairview after 2, 28-25 Fairview after 3 and a final of 41-32 Hooker. Fairview was in it all the way but the scales tipped in the middle of the 4th Q and we couldn't recover. To be fair it was my first look at them this year but it was mentioned earlier they are looking shaky. The Fairview boys have played well at times this year, especially vs Dale and Hooker and they could make some noise. I don't look for Hooker to be at State unless they pull together quick.

🙄🙄🙄 Hooker played pretty awful I’ll give you that but they still won. Hooker is a legit contender...beat Hinton tonight by 18. Probably could have been more but Hinton was pretty content watching Hooker just hold the ball.
oldblue I don't think Hooker played awful (and I was there), I think a good defense stifled them for 3 1/2 quarters. Did you read my running score numbers? Their record is great and they no doubt are a good, well-coached team but to trail unranked Fairview for most of the game (basically a home game) doesn't look good. They've only played 5 games vs top-20 this year. Don't get me wrong, I'm a fan of D1 but they better come together quick. I'll be at the regional finals Saturday night and will no doubt have more to say.
No one is talking about Mangum but what a game they played last night. I know Minco was without their best player but no excuses. I said Mangum was going to be real threat didn’t start the season right but is playing at the right time. So to all that had Silo and Minco as contenders to play Cashion in area finals sorry. We can play ball in SW Oklahoma just look at area three. What a game it’s going to be Friday night Hobart vs Mangum a old rival game. Proud to be a Mangum Tiger.

Dude, I’ve seen Hooker play more than once. Fairview’s defense isn’t that great nor are they a good team. Hooker played awful and still won by 9. Fairview played great. They gave Hooker their best effort and came up short. During this time of the year it doesn’t matter how it looks, just matters you win. If anything Hooker played down to their opponents level. If Hooker played Fairview 20 times Fairview would lose 20 times.
Calls me Dude...that's pretty funny. And for everyone's info the Fairview games today were moved to Okarche due to power outages in Fairview. Forgot the feed the hamster I guess. Fairview boys won a tough one against Hinton this afternoon.

I know that most of these games that are live-streamed are commentated by home town guys, but I wish there was a little less complaining about officials in these broadcasts. Makes it hard to watch when the guys commentating complain about calls against their team. Maybe I’m in the minority here

Hooker is up 23-5 with 4 minutes left in the first half against Morrison.

I watch it with the sound off for mainly this reason. I've never seen an official change a call because someone complained. They're human-some are bad and some are good.
