Yup after seeing Tarkington first hand last week; I will go with the Horns, they have a really good QB & Rec's. HJ will have to keep them off the field in order to stay close. HORNS - 35 HAWKS - 28

Wow, that was a beat down; I wonder what happened to all of that EC talent, looks like they may be going thru a dry spell?

HF will have to start fast and have better QB performance in the passing dept. and Line blocking up front to keep up with EC; if they do I like our chances of hanging with them; if not it could be a long night for my Horns. HF's defense is solid and will keep them in the game if like I said above, the QB & Line play better.

Yup, should be a good game; I hear Kountze is good this year and we barely beat them last year as I recall.

Based on the little I saw from Live Streaming Hughes Springs looked big and fast; HF just could not get anything going on offense. Even though HS is a smaller 3A-Div 1 school they play powerhouse teams the likes of Tatum, Atlanta, Waskom & Jefferson all of which I think have won a State Title. I look for HF to bounce back next week though, good luck to both teams.

Did anybody make it out to this scrimmage; if so how did these two old district rivals look?

Marcus Morris of HF should have a good year; he is a Sr. as well as a 3 year starter at QB for the HORNS.

Wow, no more Crack Back's on the DE or LB; that is good I guess because it's a devastating block.

Wow the BC forfeit sucks, really hurt HF; it appeared to be coming down to a Play in game with them and Silsbee for the #4 playoff spot.

Wow... close game

Any HF fans know when they begin?

Damn this was a good game, hats off to Liberty they kept battling back and never gave up. Those two picks the HF QB threw killed them as one was a pick six and the other came close to being one as well. HF battled back down 14 late in the 4th and almost pushed it to over time, they just couldn't stop that sweep play once two of their starting D-line men left the game with injuries. HF gets a bye week to heal up for the toughest part of their schedule. Good luck to both teams.

I'm no coach but to me it seems, he just needs to work on his mechanics, setting his feet, squaring his shoulders to throw... things like that. It's one thing to pass in practice where you know they aren't going to hit you, as opposed to Friday night where everything but the kitchen sink is getting thrown at you.

HF has struggled in the passing game; QB is having trouble with accuracy but definitely has the arm. We have to get the passing game going otherwise Liberty will try to make us one dimensional and that is not good. Going to be a good game as this is only our second home game and HF fans will pack the stands, I expect a loud and spirited environment. With that said: Horns - 17 Panthers - 14

Yup and illegal shifts as well; they are trying to many men in motion.

HF played better than I thought they would; they had their fare share of "bullets to the feet". All in all EC was the far and away the better team. The EC defense didn't play as well I thought they would; I know the score was 35-13 but if not for breaking out their own Six Shooter HF moved the ball on them.

The EC defense is average at best, HF was able to move the ball on them; if not for untimely holding penalties, overthrown passes and T/O's their game would have been much better. The EC offense however is as good as advertised; they have speed and the QB can make just about any throw on the field with good accuracy. Woodville will need to get a pass rush on him in order to keep it close. I will go with Woodville in this one 35-28

Yeah that's why you guys quit playing us in the 90's as we always overestimated ourselves. Look at the head to head record over the years... need I say more.

I just saw the KFDM interview with Coach Waggner, he seems to be a class act. Good luck to you an the Horns this season Coach.

I have to admit Kountze was better than I thought they would be, they gave HF all they could handle.

Yup... this is going to a good game; I will take EC in this one, the HJ QB (Collin Pomirco) is a Soph and 1st yr at the varsity level.

HF by a whole bunch

Yup... looking at their schedule they don't shy away from anyone & play in a tough district. They play the likes of Atlanta, Waskom, Arp and Jefferson who if I am not mistaken all have State Championships under their belt, at one time or another.

I heard that Hughes Springs was big & fast, that is all I heard or know about this team from East Texas. Did any HF fans on SETX Sports make the game that can comment on it?

I am totally clueless now; I heard last night the Varsity & JV will travel to Houston Waltrip for a scrimmage on Saturday morning 08-18-18?
