First game of the year doesn't really matter. For example:
I remember when I was a kid, kid. The only time my city had good football. This was back in the day when Ozark and Branson ran football in SWMO. Branson was up 35-7 at half we won 50-49 with a 2 pt conversion at the end. Next week crushed Camdenton when we played them at (then) SMSU. Knocked off Rolla at Rolla to make it to the quarterfinals against Camdenton. They pushed our shit in that night and went on to win state.
