;D
we had a pretty good JV a couple years ago thursday night JV game, we are all warmed up our kids just busted through our sign and were taking their place on the sidelines the Oline coach and I are watching the opponents get ready to bust through their sign. Their kids take a run at it, hit it, nothing happens, they can't bust through it, big traffic pileup behind the sign, finally a hand punches through and rips a hole and the team pushes through the oline coach and I are laughing, I look at him and say,"oh....we got this" beat the tar out of that team
what are some other signs of sure victory before the first kickoff

True Story: When the other teams best player gets tripped, falls and breaks his leg while they are out walking the field.

...when the bus arrives at the opposing schools parking lot to take them on a 2 hour drive to our place.
That particular team in our league, at the time, had the longest current losing streak in the state of California (36 games) and the combined score of the three previous games against us was 150-0. The previous year (2004) we were ahead 35-0 after running 4 offensive plays (5th TD was when 4 of our defenders partied at the QB and create a fumble....then returning it for TD).
Needless to say the final score was 50-0 that night.
I should say, "you know you are going to when........when the schedule was posted in December".

I think any time a team has a bunch of hokie elaborate chants and warm up dances and skits I know that they have wasted alot of practice time and are more focused on that then the game....once the game starts i love when i hear "ssssuuuuuuuuuwwwweeeeeeeeep!" when we are running the toss off tackle!

when the other teams dbs give like a 10 yd cushion because they know they are going to get beat deep if they come any closer.
when the other team decides to rush 5 and drop 6 into coverage vs nobacks. nice night that night.

At the coin toss the other coach looks your 2 Tackles and Fullback up and down then says Take it easy on us coach we dont want to get anyone hurt tonight.
Or you are up 28-0 after running 2 offensive plays. Kickoff return TD, Punt return TD, Int. return TD, 40 yd TD run on your second play. That one ended like 65-0

when i see an "elaborate" "new" scheme that has been "invented" solely to stop the off tackle superpower
when i hear anopposing coach say in pregame, "WE ARE NOT going to let them get outside." Good, we will run inside all your guys keeping us inside.
When the opposing coach (Same guy) says we have to stop the dive play....we do not have one, it is a trap!
Long night for them either way!

...the opposing QB calls "Timeout" before the first play because they only have nine guys in the huddle.
Coach comes out, yells, screams and flails.
Team huddles, QB calls "Timeout" again - only ten guys in the huddle.
True story.

In 2000 we played a team IN THE FIRST ROUND OF THE PLAYOFFS......the final score was 84-21 (not a typo and no....we did not run up the score....our first team JV offense, all 11 JV players, scored two TDs that night). The next week that same team called us and wanted to schedule a game in 2001!!!!!!!!!! Score after 1 offensive play??? 14-0. We returned the opening KO for a TD and scored on a 60 yard bomb. Final score 49-7. Thanks for calling us back coach!!!!

We were playing a team that wasn't as good as us but not bad either. It hadn't been a good practice week and the boys seemed sluggish. The coaches were worried. We had a couple of special kids for managers and the kids loved them. As our guys were kind of sleepwalking through pregame one of the other team's players looks at our managers and yells loudly, "Look, they have a couple of retards". Bad move.

Well...On the badside of this... You know you are gonna lose when the other team kneels in the middle of the 3rd quarter on your 5 yard line with the clock running ...

In 2004 we played a team (same as all of my previous posts) and kicked 4 field goals on first down!!!!
Their coach was upset when our kicker made a 56 yarder with about 10 seconds left in the game making the score 71-0. Yes, the kick was on first down!
The moral of this story is, "pick your poison". Our back ups put up a majority of the 71 points. We figured that every time we touched the ball we were going to score. If we didn't attempt those field goals (not all of them were made) and scored TDs on those drives the final score would have been 121-0. Nobody wants that.

the opposing teams coach in the newspaper says, "We just hope to be competitive with their first teamers". I said something very similar to a news guy one year... they printed it. We ended up winning 58-14- or something like that.
In 2000 we played a team IN THE FIRST ROUND OF THE PLAYOFFS......the final score was 84-21 (not a typo and no....we did not run up the score....our first team JV offense, all 11 JV players, scored two TDs that night).
The next week that same team called us and wanted to schedule a game in 2001!!!!!!!!!! Score after 1 offensive play??? 14-0 In 1999 (different school than now) we did something similar- we were the least terrible team in a terrible league- after getting beat 35-7 by a league runner-up in the playoffs one year, I begged for a game with the league champ. We lost 49-17... but from that point on we started to understand what it meant to compete at a high level.
Anyway...(all stuff that happened last year):
1. When the opposing coach is eating a bag of popcorn during the 2nd quarter (our concession stand is on the visitor's side... my question is did he send someone or did he get it himself?) We won 48-0.
2. Though we have a 45 point "mercy rule" (after half, game is over at a 45 pt. margin), when the officials talk to you about the suggestion from the opposing coach regarding the possibility of a running clock in the first half. (end of 1st QR: 56-0- we probably had 90 yds. total offense, but 3 ints and a FR for TDs).
3. When the opposing team runs off the field, cheering and hollering while we are hanging our heads. Scoreboard reads Home 44 Visitor 6. We were at our place.
4. When the back judge is so slow in his "ready for play" whistle that we probably get 35-40 seconds between plays (up 24-7 at half... we kept the ball nearly the entire 3rd quarter- gave it up after a TD with 21 seconds left). The best thing was this was a playoff game.
and my favorite from the 2004 season: (same team from #2 above... thankfully they are no longer in our district... they moved UP a class... unbelievable) We are playing our homecoming game against a terrible team. At the time, we are ranked #2 in the state, they had won 1 game in 2 years. Because they came a long way, I told their AD that we would feed them after the game (our FFA put on a big BBQ). During pre-game while catching kicks, a ball went over their returner's head (who was a starting HB for them), he went to get the ball and as he ran back to his side he stopped right next to me and asked "Hey Coach, when is the barbecue?"
Sorry so long... my TV is dead.

In summer of 2004 (as an assistant baseball coach) the opposing schools head football coach ad throws out a "Hey coach, how's that weightlifting going for your baseball team?" (they beat us 6-5 on a wind aided pop up homerun). So in football....pregame speech consisted of reminding them what had been said during baseball.
In opening game of the season we returned opening kickoff against them, scored 39 in the first half. Final was 45-0. And I was NICE, could have named the score.
In 2004 track season a conference school talked MUCH trash to us at a track meet. Same school had never scored a point on us at any level in my 5 years at current school. 2004 we beat them 70-0. JV scored 35 of those points. This year their head coach said they were going to win the district, "unseat" the Pirates. Final was 42-6 (with the 6 coming with their varsity against my fresmen kids at the end of the game).
In 2004 we put 80 on the board. At end of first half I was running traps and wedges. (attempting to keep the score down). It was 50 something to nothing at half. Problem was opposing coach kept throwing, and we kept intercepting, and they could not stop ANYTHING we ran offensively. It was like every play was a trick play (boy wedge and trap from a DW school are so sneaky I know).
I am 5 and 0 when we return the opening kickoff for a TD. We are 48-1 when we score first.

True story..1996, when running lead two inside backers try to get out of the way by running backwards.
Same season, the opposing team runs off the field thinking its half time when its only the end of the first quarter, had to get team out of locker room before when could start 2nd.

... the line judge tells your headcoach that a certain player is playing too aggressively. (our nosegaurd had something like 20 tackles that game, playing clean football every down)

"Or you are up 28-0 after running 2 offensive plays. Kickoff return TD, Punt return TD, Int. return TD, 40 yd TD run on your second play. That one ended like 65-0 "
Same here, coach. Up 28-0 after 2 plays. Kickoff return TD, interception return TD, bucksweep right ~50 yd TD, bucksweep left ~50 yd TD. Needless to say, they are not on our schedule for this season.

Or, when the ref comes over at the end of the 3rd quarter and says that the opposing coach requests a running clock for the 4th.
