Scottie doesn't know

Was talking about the Blanchard/Cushing game tbh. All in jest from the song, but I would be surprised if Wagoner wins by that margin as well, but I've been wrong many times before. I just see Cushing as a notch above everyone else. Tuttle/Wagoner is a coin flip game to me.

No offense to Blanchard, but I I don’t see anyway that happens. I know it was last year, but Cushing threw 3 picks against Blanchard and still won by 14. Cushing has thrown 4 picks all year this year.

Also, I watched that Blanchard-Weatherford game. Blanchard didn’t look great at all. They were lucky to win. Weatherford dropped long passes and was in the red zone several times. And I don’t think Weatherford is great at all.

I know, I know. The weather. Well it was cold and snowy/rainy in Cushing too and they put up 48 points in 3 quarters.

Its probably a pretty good take.  W'ford makes this hard to figure out.  They definitely improved as the season went on.  The question is how much.  I think Cushing wins, but I doubt it will be more than a few touchdowns.  

I wasn't completely sold on Cushing either until they throttled Wagoner. I know, I know, this Wagoner team is nowhere near the State Champion teams they've had the last decade, but they did play Coweta and Grove really close and Cushing blew them out. The Perkins win for Cushing is also looking better after they dismantled Marlow. 

Cushing has a d1 signee at QB.

They have the best overall HS player in 4a, #21

They have 20 + seniors on their roster.

They are well coached. 

Just my personal observations/opinions.

That’s okay. You have your opinion. Just better hope those smaller DBs can tackle and get off blocks from Cushing’s receivers. No one has been able to all year, maybe Blanchard can. Because if they don’t, bubble screen and now screen will make Blanchard’s night longggg.

And they better put a safety over top on Crooks or the night will be long.

Blanchard secondary
5’9” 150
5’10” 160
6’0” 175
6’0” 155

Cushing receivers
6’3” 190
6’2” 210
6’0” 165
6’0” 190

Honestly I think my Tuttle tigers are gonna beat the brakes off of wagoner
