Was at Branson for Reeds Spring, Branson, Kickapoo, Aurora
As with any Jamboree, you really cant saw a team won or lost...
Reeds Spring scored more than anyone they faced.. Scored twice on Kickapoo gave up one score
Scored once on Branson did not give up a score
Scored once on Aurora did not give up a score.
All teams have stuff to work on...
Branson defense looked to be better and at times was hard to move the ball against. Offensively had trouble getting in rhythm. Still think they have the skill guys to do some damage, but will have to protect them and give them time to create.
Kickapoo is big and has plenty of athletes. Maybe not the explosiveness in the backfield that they had last year, but will win plenty of games.
Aurora is noticeably different than they were a year ago. But, that quarterback could be something special. Payton Evans is a handful. They are not the unit they were on the defensive line that they were a year ago... But, I wonder if they are not a team that will get better as the year goes along. If you are going to play them, it is a better to play them early, in my opinion.
Reeds Spring put the ball on the ground a couple of times but showed the ability to move the ball against all three teams. Quarterback is probably a little bit of a question at this point. If they get a QB settled in and get the passing game going with that running game they will be crazy explosive. Defensively they bent a little but did not break. Some alignment issues and with so many guys in new positions, that was not a big surprise. Another team that will get better as the season progresses.
