The mentality of champions is that they CAN compete with ANYBODY, ANYTIME. The mentality that says you don't have the stuff to compete is a loser's mentality and is the number one cause of defeat. Just my opinion. So it’s mart mentality and not that they have better athletes every year? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just my opinion. When did Mart begin this mentality? Five years ago? Ten? Fifty? You can have all the mentality in the world, but your line average 150 pounds you ain't mentality-ing the ball down the field. A great mentality doesn't mean squat when the opposing star player is a D-1 prospect with a sub-4.5 forty time. Now, yes, if you have two somewhat evenly-matched teams facing off, I'll always pick the team who plays more disciplined, focused, and aggressive football. Yes. The right mentality wins out 10 out of 10 times, all things being equal. But the machine in Mart has been a long time going. It's a mentality that has been built over years and years of development from within and without. It's not the sorta thing that you can just conjure up in 5-10 years by getting smoked in non-district play. Just my opinion. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can out athlete sub par teams all day long, but when you meet someone who can at least hang with and compete with said athletes, that's where mentality,discipline,toughness,aggresiveness, etc. comes in. Tradition and history also have a huge play in things, if you've been there and done that and have proven yourself as a program, it almost can give you an edge on a team with better size and athletes as long as you play tough, disciplined, mistake free football. Mart and Cushing are just two very different worlds, but I hope Cushing can build off of what they have accomplished this season and turn it into long term success. The better the teams are, the better the football is, simple as that! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red90fly Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 I think you could make the argument that Cushing is the 4th best team in Region 3 along with Wortham. Mart, Lovelady, and Carlisle are easily the top 3 and are a few notches above everyone else in the region. I think Deweyville beats Jim Bowie and Cushing beat Deweyville by 22 earlier this year. Mart probably wins the region IMO and may very well win big tomorrow, but Cushing has nothing to hang heads about if that's the outcome tomorrow, they've taken a huge step as a program this year to hopefully build on going forward. Mart definately looks the part on film. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bearkaks have learned how to win when expected but now need to learn how to step it up and search for ways to Win when not expected. I belive they will overcome and succeed.
