Covered an 11-man game last week that ended up 76-42. The losing QB had 372 yards passing (his team also rushed for about 150 yards). The winning team had around 400 yards rushing and only faced two THIRD downs in the game. There was a total of 17 touchdowns and two punts, one of them on the last real series of the game when the losing team finally threw in the towel.
The most amazing thing about it? It was over in 2 1/2 hours.

How's Smith Center doing this year?

Already lost twice.

Will be a struggle for the next couple years.
 
Had a 63-27 game last night.

Was 14-14 at one point in the first quarter. Winning team scored all its points in the first half. Running back had about 219 on eight carries... and four of those carries netted four yards. Winning team had about 480 yards of offense in the first half on 30 plays.. and one touchdown was on an INT return.

Thankfully, there's a 40-point running clock rule here. But they still could've scored 100 if they wanted to.
 
Watching a 6-man game with athletes who can play is fun. When the athletes are bad (as is common at these schools), it can be a real death march.

Thank God for the 45-point mercy rule. It usually means you're leaving the stadium before 9 p.m.
 
I kind of miss the days of seeing 100-point games in Kansas 8-man before they implemented the 45-point rule. But there are still some mismatches where you'll see 55 to 60 points in a half.

Ouch.

Oh......and our game next week....yep.....Rolla @ Moscow.

This one could easily be in the 60's.

The whitehat on our crew is an old 8-man football coach who got back into officiating.

The tshirts they made a couple years ago......"We'll play you to 100....by 6's and 2's."

I guess he damn near hit 100 a couple times.......getting to 88 or 90 or something like that.
