It's Go Time!!

For the third straight year we will be taking on the Weatherford Kangaroos for the Bi-District round of the playoffs. And the best part is: Shotwell is the location. I am very happy to have a home game for the 4th week in a row.
As many of you know, Weatherford is a fairly run heavy team. They have that triple option offense that can eat you alive if run properly. But against our Eagle D, that will not happen. We will have play with our heads on a swivel to stop Weatherford’s attack. I am positive that Coach Fullen has our D prepared to stop anything put in front of us. And the Warbirds will be getting a bunch thrown at them. I am sure that Coach Wheaton will have several different looks depending on how well we defend against their offense. I know that he will use a few people rotating from QB to RB to FB. We will have to play sound football to keep those guys in check.
Offensively we should be able to pick apart their D and basically score at will. As long as our Offense shows up to play that will happen. Last week was a scary game to watch for me. I know that we had several people resting up for the playoffs, but I still thought we should have had a bigger victory than 7 points.
It is now time to get everything together and take care of business as we head to the Class 5A Division II State Championship. I know that being a home game we will have a full house getting into the heads of Weatherford. I don’t think the Kangaroos know what they are getting themselves into. Let’s go out there, fly high, and knock some heads around. GO EAGLES!!!
