High schools: Deer Creek looking forward to game vs. Guthrie
Battle of Class 5A unbeatens will highlight a large Thursday night football schedule.
Since beating Carl Albert in the district opener, Deer Creek has been looking forward to this Thursday's game at No. 1-ranked and unbeaten Guthrie.
“It's going to be a tremendous atmosphere,” Deer Creek coach Grant Gower said. “It'll be a great setting for high school football, and it's got huge playoff implications.”
No. 3-ranked Deer Creek (7-0) hasn't been challenged much since the win over Carl Albert. The Antlers have outscored their last three opponents by a combined 198-12.
“It's good and bad,” Gower said of his team's recent schedule. “We're not really beat up so to speak as far as going through any really physical ballgames, but the other side of it is we haven't been able to run many plays with our main offense.”
Deer Creek used its starters for 23 offensive plays on Friday in a 69-0 win over Western Heights. The Antlers' starters took just 18 snaps the week before in an 83-6 win over Guymon.
