Starters pretty much stayed in until mid 4th qtr, up by like 40 points.

100% correct

I didn't watch the game. We're starters playing in the 3rd or 4th qtrs? Just for comparison, for the past several years anyway, in runaway games, C.Joseph left starters in the first half regardless of score. But 2nd half most if not all starters sit out, and the bench gets emptied. If the opposition makes too big of a comeback, or perhaps on a critical play, a few appropriate starters may get back on the field.

Not necessarily. You just have to know about this particular members posts and you will see what I am talking about.

So asking a legit question about coaching tactics is a pessimist?

Wth is spidersal?

Are you spidersal offspring?

Good wins against two not-so-great teams. So, what kind of strategy is it to leave all your starters in until you're up by 40+ POINTS before mixing in 2nd/3rd stringers? That's a recipe to get a starter hurt, especially when you're in the running for playoffs. You leave your star RBs and starting defensive players in? Is Nederland trying to make a statement or something? All the crowd praises the coach when winning, but if a starter got hurt unnecessarily I'm pretty sure they'd turn. Just idiotic if you ask me. There's plenty of 2nd/rd stringers who could've still done well against that team.

Congratulations Pirates

I'll have my crow fried burnt, extra crispy (sprinkled with eagle dust) while eating it inside of an active hornet's nest washed down with a cup of tar mixed with muriatic acid. Please grant me blue bell ice cream mixed with two grape flavored fig newtons for dessert 😂.

Wow... This wasn't on my bingo card congrats Hardin.

Time to switch styles from blue to red LET'S GO BIG RED !!!

Rivalries aside! Emotional games drive me nuts.

Looking forward to it

This was fundamental football on defense. 1. Stopped the run. 2. Quarterback Pressure (Multiple Sacks) 3. Don't allow those big plays from early games 4. 3 and Out drives for Jasper 5. Create Turnovers (Pick 6, Safeties, etc.) 6. Offensive Firepower from ALL aspects for the Tigers. Run game has been devastating. If this is any indication of growth for the Tigers it could be a fun district and even better playoff run for 10-4A. Go TigerNation

Now that we took the L, im curious how the Playoff bracket is gonna look now. Possible 2 seed Newton lol.

Yep here it is... [Hidden Content]

Shepherd puts themselves in the drivers seat for that 4th playoff spot

Very impressive win by Hardin. Coach Taylor and his staff has done an outstanding job.

College Gameday is hilarious right now 😂

I don't believe the Newton coaches overlooked Hardin, especially after their great season last year in 3A D1. That said, Newton is definitely one dimensional (and I was born and raised there). Special teams/kicking PATs have been nonexistent for many years, and it really matters in games like this. Regardless, if Hardin survives the playoffs, they’ll meet Newton again and it’ll be a good one.

Simon isn't ranked the #5 RB in the country for no reason. Add the Soph Dieudonne--who is coming into his own as a 'banger'--and it's a stout rushing attack. Plus, Wells (QB) doesn't make many mistakes with the ball. He's a talent as well. I'm VERY pleased with the OL. It's been patchwork since early game 1. The only young man playing OL now that started the season is the TE Reynolds. Y'all actually covered him pretty well last night. I think he only had one catch for a big first down on a scramble by Wells.

I'm shocked wow!!!!

North Crowley smashed Waxahachie 42-17 Think they are gonna win it all 🫪
