So there we were...Myself, Dustin Kronhofman, and Brian Blevins. Just trying to enjoy a nice Saturday afternoon at the Grand Island Casino Sportsbook full of fellowship, football, and overpriced food. I decided to put a few bucks on a little same game parlay on Nebraska - Michigan State. Over on points and Nebraska - 13. Classic started-out-good-then-turned-to-sh*t-then-second-life type bet (we've all been there). Well that turnover on downs was huge as Neb scored quickly to cover the 13 points and set off a dog pile type celebration. Of course, our defense decided to let me down which turned my celebration into embarrassment not only because I lost but because sitting directly behind us was Ravenna coach Dan Bolling (great guy) and his crew. I think they loved me screaming "backdoor cover!!!" only to see Sparty actually achieve it. Anyway, we're here for picks right?
Class B: Skutt over Elkhorn North...Roughly 1995 Hartington High blew the doors off Skutt in Omaha at Burke. Yes, you read that right. I say Skutt has righted the ship since.
Class C1: Central City over Milford...Learned how to play golf at that awesome 9 hole course in Milford. Problem is, I suck at golf. Fighting Hueberts in this one.
Class C2: Yutan over Arlington...Flipped a GI Casino chip on this one. Technically it was Kyle Spotts' chip because I lost my last one (or 5) on a ridiculous dealer five card 21!
Class D1: Wausa/Osmond over Crofton...Ok, Brad Wright, we talked about this on Saturday. Let's see it!
Hemingford over Bridgeport...Get Up Bobcat Nation, probably the biggest game since Jordan Haas roamed the sidelines. Taryn Wood already has the cigar picked out and golf ball shaped ice cubes in the freezer.
Class D2: Neligh/Oakdale over Elgin/Elgin Pope John...One of my all time favorite people I ever had the chance to call a friend, Nate Metschke (RIP), would of been extra charged up for this one!
Class D6: Stuart over Hampton...Colin Schurman has created a beast on Hwy 20 and Johnny Miller has been nothing but good to me over the years. Sorry, Hampton.
Red Cloud over Silver Lake...SL tried everything they could to score 100 points on me in 2016 and thanks goodness for guys like Jason Heldt and Josh Sholtz because I was ready to lose my sh*t. #WeAreRC
