The 2024 Offense-Defense All-American Bowl was one for the books. With 7 total games played over the span of one day inside AT&T or Cowboy Stadium, action was plenty. All Americans from multiple age groups got their time to shine in a historic venue.
The Bills and Saints of the youth midget division kicked off the day’s action. When the dust settled the Saints ended up with a hard-fought 21-6 win. This one came down to one final drive as the Saints scored their 3rd touchdown with just a few moments left to put things out of reach. #35 JahMere McGriff took home MVP for the Saints.
Up next the Raiders topped the Seahawks in a 21-20 thriller game in the youth junior division. After a strong start from the Raiders, the Seahawks clawed back to make it come down to the wire. #59 Noah Davis claimed MVP for the Raiders.
In the first of two underclassmen games, the Broncos beat the 49ers 20-6. #21 Aiden Frazier had himself a day and won the MVP for the Broncos.
In the second underclassmen game, the Cowboys got a dominant 29-0 win over the Steelers. It was all Cowboys in their “home” stadium. The Cowboy QB Dominick Sgambellone is pictured above. In the end, #21 Nickolas Stafford won MVP after a multiple-touchdown performance.
The Chiefs brought home the dub after a 19-7 win over the Vikings in the high school juniors and seniors game. The Chief’s defensive line was a force to be reckoned with throughout the entirety of the game. The whole defense line was getting to the Vikings QB, with a multiple sack showing from #61 Brylan White. Ultimately, #36 Austin Thomas was named the game MVP.
The Eagles shut out the Texans during a 14-0 win in the first of two middle school division games. Brayden Robbins for the Eagles was all over the place and impacted play in a variety of ways. Therefore he was named the game MVP.
In the final game of the day, the Lions held on to a 7-6 win over the Ravens. This one was a battle that never was out of reach for either side. In the end, #67 Jalen Newsome was awarded the MVP.
It was a great day of competition, exposure, and technique development down in Arlington Texas. The beautiful AT&T Stadium welcomed us with hospitality and was rewarded with quality gameplay.
The clock is ticking for next year’s OD All-American Bowl but for now, make sure you sign up for the upcoming Winter Camps!
