GAME NIGHT! Friday Night Lights V! Updates


It's game day! This time, for the second straight week, game night is not in Jaguar Country. Instead, tonight the B-B-E Jaguars football team travels north as they did last week. This week they face Long Prairie-Grey Eagle in Todd County after heading into Morrison County last week to Swanville. *Tonight's game will be played at the LP-GE football stadium, which is adjacent to their elementary school in the heart of town. It's roughly due south by a couple blocks from main street Long Prairie. This will be my first visit to their football stadium since either the fall of 1993 or 1994. That was quite awhile ago!

The Long Prairie-Grey Eagle Thunder are 0-4 on the season but pose a threatening passing attack. It will be a fun game, and I hope you can take it in by being there!

*Here's a pretty rough video featuring the final 50 seconds or so of the game. I was having major problems with a wet viewfinder on my videocamera, and then I was completely (100%) off the mark for U/SA's final play of the game. Anyway, here it is:


Game updates to follow below.
 
UPDATE: the Jaguars are ahead 6-0 late in the first quarter. B-B-E scored with 1:54 left in the first quarter on a 27-yard run by quarterback Luke Dingmann, who was trying to convert 4th down and four to go.

Halftime: B-B-E 24, LP-GE 0.

UPDATE: look Dingman scored on a 7-yard quarterback carry with 63 seconds left in the third quarter. A failed two-point conversion left the score at 30 to 0. Final score and more in a new blog post!!!
