Wow,
What do you say when the first play of the game is an onside kick and the other team recovers it? It was by far the worst game of the year for our team. We lost 33-0 against a good Kaysville Gold team. They are a good team but not 33-0 good team. I certainly don't want to take anything away from Kaysville and their team but we had 6 turnovers in this game. Two fumbles, two interceptions and two lost onside kicks. We never got into a rhythm in this game.
I give Kaysville credit for taking the ball out of Jaden's hands. They kicked off six times with 5 onside kicks and 1 down the opposite side of the field. Jaden never touched the ball on a kickoff. We did have a few moments where we executed on a couple of plays and it looked like it might turnaround but a penalty or a turnover quickly stopped the drives. Both the coaches and players felt like we had just been kicked in the gut as this was the worst loss in the last 2 years that we have had.
In any event we are still the number one seed in our bracket going into the playoffs and everyone is picking Bear River White to beat us. Hopefully that will give us some added motivation going into the playoffs. We definitely need all of the boys to play well and need a good defensive effort on the field. I was so distraught after our loss on Sat that it took me until today (Tuesday) to post anything about the game.
We have a very good team that needs to find a way to get up for the big games. As we have said all along if we can execute our game plan and not have any turnovers we can win every game. That obviously did not happen last Saturday. We need to have a good week of practice and forget about our game on Saturday to set the stage for a first round win in the playoffs this week.
Lets dry our tears and move on to our most important game of the season. Remember there is no crying in football.
