Birdville vs Weatherford - 2019 Week 3 Football Highlights

We had a classic of a game at Kangaroo Stadium in Weatherford where Dezmond Forrest looked to build on his strong start to 2019. We pick it up in the 3rd quarter where Forrest is taking this 28 yard run to the house for the 3rd of his 4 touchdowns on the night along with this 123 yards rushing. Still in third quarter it would be Birdville quarterback Stone Earle throwing to Carter Self for a 5 yard touchdown to regain the lead 26-25. This would be back and forth all night. We move ahead to 23 seconds remaining, Birdville down 33-26 and it is Earle throwing this 10 yard touchdown pass to the back corner to Carter Self to make it a 1 point game. The Hawk's are going to kick the PAT and send this OT right? No! Birdville decides to go for it all but this pass attempt falls incomplete and the Kangaroos win and move to 3-0 on the year with this 33-32 win.

Burleson Centennial vs Aledo - 2019 Week 3 Football Highlights

Aledo is led by two big time offensive weapons, Jase McClellan and Jo Jo Earle. They would lead the Bearcats into a matchup with Burleson Centennial. Check out the trickery early on here with McClellan pitting it on the reverse to Earle who takes this all the way down deep into Spartan territory. That would lead to this touchdown pass as quarterback Jake Bishop throws quickly to Money Parks - hey he could make plenty of money with speed like this. He scores the touchdown. It would be a big night for him. Later in the 2nd quarter it's Bishop again connecting with Parks in the endzone for the touchdown. Aledo has so many weapons - and the Bearcats go on to blast Burleson Centennial 63-30 to begin the season's district play.
