History on the line Friday night no matter the outcome. Bixby was already in the record books as the first team in state history to advance to 10 straight state championships.
A Jenks win would give them 19 titles, tying them with Ada for most all-time.
Jenks are the only team to beat Bixby in the last two years, looking for their third title since 2020. Bixby, looking for a sixth straight.
Almost exactly a month from when these two teams squared off in the regular season finale.
14-nothing Bixby after 1. Early second, a direct snap to Kourdell Gouldsby, his third touchdown of the night. Spartans up 21-nothing.
Late in the half, Jenks caught a break. Connor Kirby's pass tipped by Blake Hogshooter, and Jett Calmus was there to pluck it right out of the air! He took off down the sideline and went untouched. 80-yard pick 6. Jenks was on the board.
But on the ensuing kickoff, Gouldsby looked at him get through the first wave, used his blockers, and took it to the house. A 96-yard kickoff return, hit the lights, lock the doors. Spartans up 28-7 at the half.
Mid third, Gouldsby, 20 yards touchdown.
Bixby, big winners, champs again, 49-21.
Bixby finishes the year undefeated. 10 straight championship appearances. 6 straight state titles. Dominance, defined, by the Spartans.
