West Point-Beemer ends regular season with win at Logan View/Scribner-Snyder

The West Point-Beemer Football Team rounded out the regular season at Logan View/Scribner-Snyder Friday night, winning 40-26.

Good win for the Cadets, who are now making their second straight playoff appearance.

West Point-Beemer (7-2) travels west to take on Gothenburg (7-2) Friday night in the opening round of the playoffs in action that can be heard on 107.9 the Bull.

The Swedes lost 10-7 at Ord in Friday night's regular season finale.

I think the Cadets have a good chance to win this one.

Some of the strongest football is played in Northeast Nebraska.

Gothenburg is very old school in that they will run and try and slow things down and control clock and grind things out.

The Swedes will mix in a pass every once in a while, but otherwise they're really old fashioned.

If West Point-Beemer can spread the field and create big plays I think they'll be in good shape.

Gothenburg is susceptible to giving up the big play, and the Cadets certainly have plenty of dynamic playmakers.

The game being out west is an advantage for the Swedes without a doubt, but West Point-Beemer can definitely go out there and win.

The winner gets either Aurora or Arlington in the Quarterfinals, and so whoever plays the Huskies, assuming they get past the Eagles, is going to have their hands full.

It would be a huge deal for the Cadets to win and be able to host Aurora in the Quarterfinals though.

To win a playoff game for the second straight year would be a huge deal for West Point-Beemer there's no doubt about it.

I don't think anyone expects the Cadets to get past the next round, but just having the opportunity to play the Huskies would be big for this program.

It's a long haul out to Gothenburg, but the ride home will be a lot more jolly and lively if West Point-Beemer wins.

The Cadets have to mentally prepare themselves for the game on the bus ride there and when they get there.

Listening to some of their favorite tunes and just staying relaxed and not letting the long ride out there get to them are all key for West Point-Beemer, in my opinion.

Kickoff is scheduled for 6:00 p.m. with pregame at 5:30 on the Bull.
