Throwing Caution to the Wind
No extra playoff round in 2021, so 2A teams are digging deep into the playbooks to position for one of 4 post-season spots. Here are some Week Eight matchups that could shape the bracket…
GotW:
Purcell @ Community – Game one (of three) in the endurance row for second place in District 3. Both teams got the wind knocked out of them early, but are coming on strong the past few weeks.
KaEo:
Hugo @ Antlers – Bearcats taking another step up in competition in District 6 after blowing through McCurtain County last week. Buffaloes seek to run like the wind, control the clock and keep things interesting to the end.
Lindsey @ Frederick – Bombers need some winds of change - a win or two over the next three weeks - to get into the playoff picture in District 4, starting this week with the Leopards, who are currently headed to Tillman County on track for a runner-up finish.
Beggs @ Kiefer – Opposite ends of the offensive spectrum in District 7, but both have been scoring like the wind is at their backs. Bring your stopwatch, because it is likely to be a track meet.
Against the Wind
Idabel @ Eufaula – Warriors took on a tornado last week against a talented and experienced Antlers team. Can they get a second wind and regroup against District 6’s favorite Ironheads?
