        • Statement win for Union | Things we learned following Week 1 of district play

          Union was impressive in its win over Owasso last week. It's looking like 6A, behind Bixby, will be the mad scramble we thought it was going to be.

          In this week's marquee matchup, Owasso hosts Mustang. Barry has mixed feelings about Mustang, despite its 4-0 record.

          It's unclear whether Rams impact receiver Deuce Chalk will play as the Rams look to avoid falling below .500 on the season.

          Plus, it's another week of solid matchups, including Holland Hall at Verdigris, Collinsville at Bishop Kelley, Sapulpa at Coweta and Beggs at Victory Christian. 

          Lastly, Barry's Final Thoughts and an update on Luke Hasz.

        • This week's blockbuster: Owasso at Union

          • Breaking down Jenks-Union, plus where's Danny Okoye going to college

            In this week's episode, Barry and Patrick break down Jenks' win over Union in the Backyard Bowl. Barry explains how Jenks' performance against Owasso, even though it was a loss, was important in boosting the Trojans' confidence heading into the Union game.

            Plus, Barry offers an explanation to a reader's question about his weekly rankings. 

            Also, Patrick discusses where he thinks Danny Okoye will go to college. The NOAH standout announced that he'll pick a college on Sept. 20. This comes a few weeks after an impressive official recruiting visit to Oklahoma.

          • Jenks vs. Union, Broken Arrow vs. Owasso lead a blockbuster Week 2

            Barry Lewis breaks down some of the marquee matchups of Week 2.

            No. 2 Union at No. 6 Jenks: These programs that have combined for 23 state titles since 1996. The teams have split the last two Backyard Bowls. Union quarterback Shaker Reisig and three other Union starters return to play at Allan Trimble Stadium for the first time since moving from Jenks.

            6AI: No. 7 Broken Arrow at No. 4 Owasso: This one has the potential to be a thriller similar to Owasso’s 27-26 win last year when the Rams stopped Broken Arrow’s 2-point conversion with 30 seconds left. Owasso head coach Bill Blankenship will be on the opposing sideline from his son, Josh, who is in his third year as Broken Arrow’s head coach. Broken Arrow hasn’t been 0-3 since 2017.

            5A No. 1 MWC Carl Albert at 6AII No. 1 Muskogee: A matchup between two top-ranked teams. Muskogee’s 35-28 victory over Carl Albert last year was a springboard moment for the Roughers. The Titans have won 13 in a row since then, including their sixth state title in seven years.

          • How will Owasso and Jenks rebound? Plus, Hank Puckett's 'incredibly impressive performance'

            It's rare for the best game of the week to be between a pair of 0-1 teams. But such is the case for perineal 6A powers Jenks and Owasso, who sustained Week 0 losses and face each other Friday night in Owasso. Barry Lewis expects a close game this week as each school looks to avoid an 0-2 start.

            Other topic that Barry and Patrick discuss:                                                                   

            • Barry talks about how impressed he was with Bixby linebacker Hank Puckett and his performance against Owasso. “All he does is make plays.” Puckett 19 tackles versus the Rams.
            • Barry commends Rejoice Christian’s Cale Marley on his near-perfect performance last week.
            • Patrick was in attendance on Friday to see Kiefer defeat NOAH at Webster. But, it was a moving post-game NOAH huddle that made the strongest impression.
            • A look at Broken Arrow’s struggles.
            • In Final Thoughts, Barry gives a shout-out to security staff at high school events. “They are needed now more than ever."
