Looking for the absolute shock here. I'll start when Jay Ball was at O South with about 18 kids on varsity and were winless and beat a Top Five Creighton Prep team. At UNO I believe. Not even possible . South won by like ten?
Next for me would be the York win in Scottsbluff a couple of years ago. How crazy was that ?
Dig deep and ask your folks what game rocked the state over the years.
It was at Berquist (Norris Jr. High)....I was in the booth on the head set for that game. One of the worst experiences in my coaching career. They had a LB/FB named Barrientos who literally took the game over by himself. I believe he had nearly every tackle for Omaha South and ran for over 100yds to lead Omaha South to victory. I believe we finished the year 10-2 or 9-3 and were top 5 almost the whole season but Omaha South played a flawless game and earned a BIG victory for the school and the program....With all respect, it was nothing special on Jay's part so much as it was one of the best individual players' performances I have seen since I saw Jeff ? from Bellevue West who took over a game to win it in double overtime over someone big...Man I wish I remembered who that was but it was a HUGE deal...
Thanks,
