Title: Benton-Bryant
Post by: IAFLAR7 on August 24, 2018, 09:21:10 am
Hard to believe there is not a topic on this.

On paper, should be close. Bryant is loaded and so is Benton.

It's a rivalry so anything can happen but I'm saying Bryant by 2-3 TD's.

I just think all things being equal they are better on D and they play with fire in their eyes. You have to wonder about a team as loaded as benton is going over to Little Rock Christian and getting pushed around like they did. I don't put a ton of stock in scrimmages but this one was a red flag.

Bryant's got their number. I agree with your 2-3TD prediction

21 to 14 at half Bryant. Neither team dominating. Both making great plays to score and sustain drives. Great high school game in front of (my guess) 38000 people.

Little Rock Police

There was no gun at stadium, there was a fight that broke out and someone yelled gun. No shots or gun were at the game.

That leaves a lot of questions marks going forward. You think they will finish it at another time? Anyone know what are the rules for cancelled nonconference games?

That's to bad, 38,000 attended a great rivalry game and ruined by a few.

From non social media fake news reports, it was a group of unruly kids in the concourse.

Good. And honestly. Hope she had to stay the night in jail.

I hope they put 50k in the stands next year. Ole AW might have to put on some panther maroon
And make an appearance.

Saline county, lets not let this tarnish the salt bowl image. Come back stronger and show the state that saline is still loud and proud.

Post by: IAFLAR7 on August 26, 2018, 05:20:35 pm
For the little amount played, this was a hard hitting game. Both teams are big and athletic. Ultimately, Bryant was taking control of the game by making benton one dimensional. I think the biggest difference in these teams is at QB. Benton just doesn't have a strong armed QB that will allow them to stretch the field and fully utilize all of their skill position players.

They won't if the true story makes the rounds.  There was a tazer.  It just so happens it was a member of the WMS security team that was using it.

Correct. The LRPD has confirmed this. Yet local media continues to interview "terrified folks who were scared for their lives" because of the "gunshots."

I am very sure it was terrifying. And the reaction is appropriate for today's nutjobs of the world with their public antics, but dear Lord give it a rest KATV, KARK, FOX16, etc.

All it took was someone yelling, "he's got a gun", to cause the sheer panic that ensued. That did happen. One individual posted later on social media that very statement.  You could clearly hear the statement. Not many even knew the reason for the panic. I remember thinking a helicopter or plane had crashed into the stadium, although I didn't hear it. Some were thinking it was an earthquake. The movement of so many people at one time caused a rumbling sound like an earthquake. Most were  just following what everyone else was doing out of caution, "what if it is a shooter?" most were thinking. Almost all activity was regarding the public thinking it is a shooter and I must protect myself and my family. If it had been a shooter, they were doing just as they were trained to do, take cover, hide, or run. I think you will see stronger and more intrusive checks next time you go to WM for an event such as this where a crowd is this large. It was such a great atmosphere and a great game. Sad it didn't get to be played out. Although Bryant was declared the winner, the victory was hollow. Bryant would have wanted to play the game as would Benton. But there was no way that could have happened Saturday night.

Agreed. Very heads up moves by the communities of Benton and Bryant.

My displeasure is now aimed at the media. It is time to let it go and MOVE ON. Take the dramatics elsewhere.
