The game had finally started, the stadium was bright as over a hundred thousand people came to witness this match. My teammates were nervous some even had the bubbles and had to use the restroom before the match. I told them to calm down and just play how they normally play but that still didn't work which I didn't mind because I was going to take over anyways.
The coach was talking about some of the plays with us as we discussed what we were going to do first. There was a performance for the start of the game, Rihanna came and sang the national anthem for us at that time she wasn't as popular as she was in the future. I even got to meet her at the end of the match which I'll tell you guys about it later.
The match started us we had won the coin toss and chose to receive the ball. The Buckeyes kicked the ball but the kicker had messed up so the ball had gone out of bounds. They had to kick it again and this time we received the ball close to the goal line and ran it up the field but we were stopped halfway through as we began to set up plays.
I started as a quarterback and arranged the plays that I was going to use with the team. When I called for the start of the play everybody ran according to the play that I had given them due to having a basketball mind I had one of the players set a pick for another guy which surprised everybody there. The ref called an illegal play which caused everybody to laugh.
Next play I threw the ball to my teammate and he made the catch, unfortunately, wasn't able to get through far as he was tackled but we still got the first down and slowly made our way to the goal line. We were able to make the touchdown and the crowd was booing us due to most of them being Ohio natives but we ignored them. We made the extra point to give us two more points giving us an 8 point lead.
The Buckeyes were not discouraged but were more motivated they quickly received the kickoff and started running the ball. The guy was called Bab and was running the ball extremely fast, he was able to weave through traffic like a Slytherin snake. Bab made his way past all the defenders and was able to break free defenders to get a touchdown which shocked everybody.
I was quite impressed with Babs's play as I sat on the sidelines watching all of this godown. They decided to go for the field goal not trying to take any chances as they caught up to us and we're only losing by one point. The Buckeyes kicked the ball off once again as we received it but were stopped right away again as we were back on the offensive side. I set up the plays once again but this time I decided to run the ball by faking a Hail Mary.
As soon as they all tried to tackle me I time froze them and jumped over them and when the time returned back to normal they fell down crashing into each other letting me easily make the touchdown. I celebrated with my teammates and decided to go for another two-point play as we did a fake, I found somebody open and tossed it to him to get the two extra points giving us a 16 point lead.
The Buckeyes were surprised at how good I was and wanted to injure me. As the game continued we were going back and forth every time each time we easily scored a touchdown they would also score a touchdown but the only difference was we always went for the 2 point extra till the point that it had totaled up to become like another touchdown so the buckeyes were behind by 6 points due to the extra points.
It was halftime and the score was 48-42 by half time, with my team in the lead by six points. They had a crazy performance with the band and cheerleaders and even Rihanna came to perform once again. She had a nice show going on and she was in total sync with the band as everybody enjoyed the show. Isabella was cheering for everybody while the rest of my family was just impressed by how big a high school football game could get.
There were so many people there at the game. The VIP lounge that my family was in was a state-of-the-art room with multiple TV screens to view the game and plenty of food that Isabella went through like a lawnmower. My team was downstairs resting as the coach was giving us his famous pep talks and discussing how we can pull off this win because it was still a pretty close game.
The coach was quite impressed by the buckeyes normally any other team would have given up by now after seeing how I played but they were playing even harder and seemed to be more excited to be playing a team that was just as good as them. They were still the best in the country for a few years in a row so they had the right to think like that and not give up.
The halftime show continued as I heard everything going on upstairs I wish I could witness the show but unfortunately, I was stuck in front of Coach listening to him ramble on and off about things I didn't really care about.
