Football Pundit Chief Nostradamus: Northview Over Baker
November 2, 2012
Here’s a look at Friday night’s Northview Chiefs game against Baker from NorthEscambia.com’s new Northview football pundit - Chief Nostradamus, “The Cow Pasture Prophet” —
The Chiefs shouldn’t overlook this 5-3 Gators team in Friday night’s contest because this is a must-win district game. With a win, Northview clinches the District 1 championship.
Now for a closer look at Baker. It is just one alleged missed referee call from beating Freeport a few weeks ago. A win in that game would have given the Gators a 6-2 record, which would currently be the same as the Chiefs. Additionally, Baker scored 21 points on a quality Bozeman squad, which demonstrates that the Gators can put-up points on good team. So, Baker’s 5-3 record sounds pretty good on the surface. That is until one looks into the team’s wins and losses. When the game records are put down out on the table, there is a quick realization that the Gators haven’t beaten a team with .500 or better record. Baker’s wins came against South Walton (0-8), Rocky Bayou Christian (2-6), Sneads (3-5), Jay (3-5), and West Gadsden (0-8) – a combined record of 8-32. The three loses came in the ways of a 54-14 drubbing by Holmes County, a 32-21 thumping by Bozeman , and a 41-34 stumbling to Freeport. Nonetheless, it is obvious that Baker can score points even in defeat, and that makes this Gator team a force that must be reckoned with.
So here’s the prediction for Friday night’s match up. After contemplative gaze across the cow pasture, Chief Nostradamus prophesizes that the bovine fertilizer piles are not in a promising alignment for a Baker win; unable to hold-off Northview’s mighty Chiefs Friday night, the Baker’s Gators will go down in defeat by a considerable tally, 45-6.
That’s about it for now Chiefs fans. Come on out Friday evening and make the short drive over to Baker because our boys from Bratt need to hear you all cheering ‘em on to victory. GO CHIEFS!
