Can Claremore Finish the Regular Season Undefeated?
The Claremore Zebras football team has started off the season with a 3-0 record going into Friday against a winless Hale. Here is a list of their upcoming matchups and info behind each game. Is it crazy to predict an undefeated season?
9/22 Claremore vs Hale
Claremore is coming into this game with a perfect 3-0 record with wins over Bartlesville, Hilldale, and Oologah. Hale is coming into the game with a 0 in the win column, so it is shaping up to be a very achievable victory for Claremore.
9/29 Claremore @ Grove
Claremore is expected to be coming into the game with a 4-0 record and a very dominant offense. Through the first three weeks of the season, Grove allowed over 31 points a game to their opponents. This will be one of Claremore’s tougher matchups but odds will be in Claremore’s favor to get the win on the road.
10/6 Claremore vs Pryor
This game will be a battle of offenses at Lantow Field in Claremore. Through the first few weeks Claremore has proven to have a higher scoring offense compared to Pryor. I would not be surprised if this was a high scoring shootout, but again I have Claremore coming out with another win.
10/13 Claremore vs Edison
The preview of this game proves that Claremore should win fairly easy. Claremore defeated Hilldale by a score of 63-13 and Edison was defeated by Hilldale 21-0. Winning this game will guarantee Claremore having their first winning season in three years.
10/20 Claremore @ Bishop Kelley
This is another game that looks very good for Claremore. The key will be dominating on the offensive end and keeping Bishop Kelley’s offense off the field. This may end up being closer than projected but Claremore has already proved that they can win in clutch time.
10/27 Claremore @ Will Rogers
After defeating Will Rogers last year, this game should be no problem for Claremore. Two games away from an undefeated season and riding their momentum, Claremore should move on to the last game of the regular season with a perfect record.
11/3 Claremore vs Collinsville
This will be Claremore’s toughest match of the regular season. Both teams are undefeated through the first three weeks and both teams are stacked on both sides of the ball. The key to victory for Claremore is to stop the Collinsville offense. The Claremore offense will score and make plays but the only way the Zebra’s will win is a dominant performance from the defense.
