2010 CPFL Schedule Released
Today the Central Plains Football League (CPFL) released their 2010 schedule that kicks off Saturday March 13th. The CPFL is an 8 man semi-pro football league that plays most of their games outdoors using similar rules as arena football but without the walls. The game is very entertaining with a lot of scoring at a fast pace. The field is 50 yards long with 7-10 yard end zones by 28 yards wide. In the CPFL there are no 3 plays and a punt like you see in a traditional 11 man game. Each team will go for it on 4th down or try a field goal. Click on heading to read more....

Outlaws take step up to APFL
When the Mid-Missouri Outlaws joined the Central Plains Football League three years ago, head coach and starting linebacker Travis Jobe expected the team to compete from day one. Pitted against the best semi-pro teams in the area, the Sedalia-based Outlaws did more than just compete — they put their stamp on the arena-style CPFL with three straight championships, compiling a 31-3 league record and a 33-3 mark overall. Mid-Missouri’s dominance reached its peak last season as the Outlaws finished 12-0 in the league, followed by statement wins against two heavy hitters outside the league. After an impressive 62-35 win over the Independence Bulldogs completed their CPFL campaign, the Outlaws traveled to face the American Professional Football League and Great Lakes Football champions in back-to-back contests. The Outlaws shined against the two elite teams, defeating the APFL Iowa Blackhawks in a 54-49 barn-burner, followed up by a 33-13 win over the East Central Missouri Eagles. The victories made an indelible mark on the Outlaws, giving the team a taste of better football, played on a grander scale. The hard-fought victory over the Blackhawks came in front of 10,000 fans, and the seed was planted for the Outlaws to move from semi-pro to professional football. Click title to continue article

Outlaws(CPFL) plunder Blackhawks(APFL) of win
The Mid-Missouri Outlaws rallied from a 35-0 deficit Saturday night to stun the Iowa Blackhawks 54-49 in Council Bluffs, Iowa. “I can’t believe it,” Outlaws coach Travis Jobe said. “I knew we were good enough to play with them. ... We were a little shell-shocked at the start. The speed of the game’s a little faster. They’ve got pro athletes. They get paid and practice three times a week. We don’t practice because of everybody’s jobs.” The Outlaws (11-0) began their comeback in the second quarter, scoring 22 points before halftime. Kyle Middleton threw two touchdown passes and scored on a 1-yard run to slice the Blackhawks’ lead to 35-22 at intermission..... Click on title to read more

Outaws(CPFL) Beat the Iowa Blackhawks(APFL) in a non-league game
Although it seemed unlikely at the outset, the battle of the unbeatens lived up to its pregame billing Saturday at the Mid-America Center. The Iowa Blackhawks, leaders of the American Professional Football League, scored on their first five possessions and led 35-0 yet fell to Central Plains Football League champion Mid-Missouri 54-49 when the Outlaws stopped 235-pound running back Mell Holliday on first-and-goal at the 1 as time expired. Iowa (5-1) jumped on top Saturday when Marque McCray hauled in a 28-yard touchdown reception from Chuck Wright on the third play from scrimmage. Holliday added a pair of first-half rushing TDs as the Blackhawks built a 35-0 lead less than 20 minutes into the game. At that point, Mid-Missouri had one turnover and had managed only a single yard of total offense. However, the Outlaws found their offensive groove midway through the second and outscored Iowa 54-14 over the final 2 1/2 quarters to improve to 11-0. "We’ve been down like this before," Mid-Missouri quarterback Kyle Middleton said. "Granted this is a completely better league, but we’ve got some true champions on the team. They knew we could battle back. We knew our offense was going to put up points, and our defense was the best in our league. We knew they were going to make a stop there." Middleton threw a pair of scoring passes and rushed for another to pull the Outlaws to within 35-22 at the half. A 10-yard interception return for a TD by Antoine Stewart with 7:58 left in the third cut the Iowa lead to 42-36, and Mid-Missouri was seemingly going to have a chance to tie or move in front when Stewart scooped up a Holliday fumble at the goal line and started racing the other way. .....
