The 2012 Bracket Challenge will officially be up and running at some point tomorrow! I have to wait until some games are played today and all playoff spots are set in stone, but for the most part most of the spots are good to go. There will be a 5A Division I & II, 4A Division I & II, and 3A Division I & II. If you are interested in participating, you must have your brackets filled out by November 15 at 5 PM. You are more than welcome to participate in one category or all categories!

Bad decision to onside kick that early IMO, guess it all depends on how many timeouts LCM has and how well Vidor is running the ball

SOMEONE PLEASE POST AN UPDATE!!

Anyone know of a site or sites where I can get teams that are set in stone for playoffs?

By Sam Khan Jr. | ESPN.com HUMBLE, Texas -- Aaron Sharp is not surprised with what his team has accomplished this season. After going 9-2 and making the playoffs for the first time a year ago, Sharp and his Houston Summer Creek teammates had high expectations coming into this season and so far, they're meeting those, sitting at 9-0 heading into their regular season finale against 9-0 Dayton (Texas) High School for a district championship. "Yeah, this was pretty much an expected season from us," Sharp said. "We had a lot of people coming back from a good year that we had last year. We had more talent come in, so I think it was a real big season expected for Summer Creek, and we're just doing what we're supposed to be doing. [+] Enlarge Tom Hauck for ESPN.com Aaron Sharp is a 2014 quarterback who has an offer from UTEP and interest from several other schools in the midwest. "It's been a season to remember." The 2014 quarterback has had a strong season of his own, putting up some impressive passing numbers. Sharp has completed 65.1 percent of his passes (116-of-178) this year for 2,122 yards and 28 touchdowns to go with five interceptions for the undefeated Bulldogs. His productivity shouldn't come as a surprise -- he has been growing in the quarterback role since he was a freshman starting on Summer Creek's varsity. Even from his ninth grade year, something was clear about Sharp to head coach Brian Ford. "The thing that's always been there is the accuracy," said Ford, who was the program's first head coach when it began varsity play three years ago. "He's just so accurate with the football and he understands and can see the field. Those are things that to me you just can't teach. ... He's gotten bigger, stronger and all those kinds of things, but the thing that he's had from the beginning and I think allows him to make so many plays is just that vision down the field and the ability to throw at his targets." Many schools have noticed Sharp's talent. UTEP has already offered the 6-foot-2, 175-pound quarterback and others are interested, including Baylor, Oklahoma State, TCU, Texas A&M and Texas Tech. Earlier this season he was invited to and attended the Aggies' home clash with LSU. "Yeah I went to LSU game," Sharp said. "I thought it was a real good game. I liked it. I liked the atmosphere at Texas A&M. It's real exciting and it makes you feel like you want to go out there and play." The school that has showed the most interest aside from UTEP has been Texas Tech, according to Sharp. He said he talks with offensive coordinator Neal Brown on a weekly basis and that the Red Raiders are very high on him. "We talk pretty much every week about what's going on and stuff," Sharp said of Brown. "We talk about football, talk about what happened in our game and stuff like that. I ask him questions about what's going on in the program. "I think Texas Tech is the top school that has been recruiting me more than any other. They tell me that I'm the No. 1 quarterback in 2014 that they're looking at [their] chart." Sharp said he would like to take in a Texas Tech and a TCU game before the year is up, but right now, he's focused on his team, the district title and the playoff run that will ensue. With much at stake, this week is an exciting one for the emerging prospect. "Both teams will be 9-0 so it's a clash for the district title," Sharp said. "We'll come out hard and after that we have to see who we have in the playoffs in the first round. We'll try to make it to the next round and take it one round at a time."

If this happens, that's one tough road for the Dogs. Lot of good teams in there. First Dayton, if they happen to get past them its Montgomery IMO, then if we get by them it would be Dawson. Geeze! That Dawson and Angleton game would be a great one to see. 8)

If I was a Vidor fan I'd be praying to the football gods for a Central win this weekend. That'd make their first round match-up much easier IMO

That's why I said if the rest of the season plays out like most on here think it will ;)

[quote name="Dazed and confused" post="1315287" timestamp="1351687382"] I agree but with the remaining schedule BC looks like they have a chance. [/quote] I agree that you could make an argument to put Central in the 4th spot over LCM, we'll see what happens this weekend. If Central were to get in at 4th in district would they end up a division I or II team? Too lazy to look it up, on my phone :P
