Governors Football team impressive

Guess what, people in Sioux Falls that I know in the broadcast media are following Pierre. They tell me that we did everything but win the game against S.F. Lincoln last week. They admit it. Then they saw what Pierre did to Watertown on Friday and guess what, there is life west of I-29. Or at least the broadcast media. Print media guys still think the earth ends just west of West Central High School. If Pierre takes care of business against Mitchell on Saturday, I like thier chances at Brookings (Bobcats Homecoming). Yankton will be a test at thier place the following week but it is a winable game. Stevens and our homecoming game could be a feature game of the week statewide. Brandon Valley will be tough even if it is here. At Huron, we will win and we could beat Aberdeen Central the final game. 7-2 could be reached. 6-3 is very attainable. 5-4 would be reasonable. Less wins than losses would be dissapointing at this point. Now injuries and other things off the football that could occur and all bets are off. I don't believe in predictions like I just did, but it's a blog so what the heck. By the way, Pierre's win over Watertown was just the 4th in the last 19 years.

    What's the big difference so far this season, Rod? Is Coach Kramer making that big of an impression already, or are the Govs just another year better and another year HEALTHIER this year?

    Also, I’m a little surprised that coaches in the ESD were picking Watertown, if that is still the same team we almost beat last year. Seems to me Aberdeen or Brandon are the teams to beat.

    No. 1, Coach Kramer does alot of instruction at practices and I would dare say has guys believing. And this system of the Delaware Wing T seems to be a better fit for this group of athletes. With that said, injuries can be the great equalizer and so far (knock on wood) we haven't had any big ones like last year. Watertown might have been a little over rated but they will be there in the end. I would say Brandon Valley is probably slightly ahead of Aberdeen only because of the quarterback. Sumner at BV is very very good and Hanigan at Aberdeen is only very good. That should be a great game when they play.

    It's amazing what a new coach can do.
