[quote name="AggiesAreWe" post="719211" timestamp="1259392386"] Koko Smith had 14 carries for 168 yards, 5 TD's. Averaged 12 yards a carry. [/quote] Is that all?  I thought he rushed for 300 yards last night--not really--but it seemed like he broke every run for a touchdown.  EC, great season!  You came a long way, so be proud of your accomplishments.

I'm pulling for you too Newton.  Daingerfield's defense didn't impress me as much as their offense.  Wow!  They have some awesome runners--never quit running.  #25 Koko?--he was a little guy but he hid amongst their tall linemen and spurted through the line--really fast, really fast.  But, if Newton's defense is quick and can hold on to those slippery runners, Newton can win.  Good luck !

[/quote] I agree, this District will be changed. [/quote] Won't it have to change?  I understood that 2-A is changing to big-school/small-school alignments.  I've not checked enrollments on these schools, but I'm guessing some are much smaller than others.

What a tribute to the character of these young men!  We do have some really fine young people--nice to see the word get out.

[quote name="~old_wildcat~" post="716794" timestamp="1259068462"] EC I don't know what the out come will be in this game but don't worry about that (neither does anyone else)...Believe in yourself,represent your district well,play like a champion...Then....You Are A Champion..(regardless of the out come)..Good Luck ...!!!! [/quote] Amen to that!

K-ville--good luck representing SE Tx. 

Let's face it...D-field puts their pants on just like the rest of us...one leg at a time.  Okay, so they have bigger pants and can jump in them faster...EC's heart is big and they will give D-field a game.

[quote name="Hornet" post="714488" timestamp="1258831559"] Anyone know the location this game will be played at? [/quote] I heard Saturday, Lufkin, 7:30 pm

Okay, today I heard of a mascot that could easily be considered insensitive.  A kid checked into our school from Freeburg, Illinois, home of the Mighty Midgets.  So, I ask him why the Midgets, and he said that quite a long time ago, the Freeburg HS basketball team went to the State playoffs, and the press called them the fighting midgets because all the BB players were less than 5'4" tall.  The students liked the name so much, they adopted it as the mascot, and they probably changed "fighting" to "mighty" for alliterative effect.  Mighty Midgets--wonder if there's a thread up in IL criticizing that community.

The most talented sophomore I've seen this year is Matt Davis, QB from Klein Forest.  He ran for 168 yds and threw for 297 this past weekend against The Woodlands--not too shabby.  Of course, he may be too far west to qualify for this thread, but keep an eye on this young man.

Was at Woodlands-Klein Forest game--was a heck of a game.  I expected The Woodlands to run all over KF, and thought after the first half they would, but KF's quarterback was phenomenal and brought them back to a tie at the end of regulation.  TW scored first in OT, and KF scored quickly too, only to miss the extra point...felt so sorry for KF kicker.  Evenly matched teams--great game!

[quote name="HillGuy" post="707199" timestamp="1258179466"] Andy is doing fine as HC/AD at Tatum...they played Center tonight in round one, but lost out.  Tatum is down on talent this year, but Andy will have them back....if he doesn't wind up somewhere in SETX next season...... ;) [/quote] Is Hill Guy being cryptic or wishful?

Good post True Fan !

Oh man, Mart is always good, but good luck Evadale.

Buna has had a good season, but Newton will put it to an end--handily.

I enjoy the trash-talking before a game--that's just a way to psyche each other out, and you should be a proud supporter of your school and by extension your AAA district.  But what I'm reading on this thread is classless--sounds like ungracious winners and ungracious losers. The truth is Cleveland and Coldspring are powerhouses in a weaker district than WOS's and Silsbee's district.  21AAA is always competitive, but so are Coldspring and Cleveland.

[/quote] was not the source channel 13 was. you coaches get the jock sniff out and pay attention. get in the game. [/quote] Channel 13 often uses local newspapers, such as the Cleveland Advocate, as its sources--and gives them credit for this on air.  Perhaps, the Advocate, which like most papers likes to stir up controversy, jumped the gun, without getting all facts.  And remember, school districts cannot give information on students, so teachers/employees take the brunt of controversial stories--just to be on the safe side.  This all sounds too weird--like there is so much more to the story.  I'm guessing these coaches, even though reinstated, won't be able to coach in the playoff game???

Surely the UIL isn't leaking that info.  I bet it's just someone's conjecture.

Hey is this Viverette kin to the girls who play BB back in the 90s?

Caldwell looked good...strong middle.  Tarkington made mistakes, but can't take anything away from Caldwell.  They won it.

according to the games you posted the Defenses are about even... BC's possibly better if you wanna count the LCM's points for alot of it. but it's the ofense that will have to step it up... [/quote] So, you agree Cleveland's offense appears to be better, but then I guess we can make of it what we want.  I've seen Cleveland play and their defense is very solid.  I expect a good game, but Cleveland the winner.

I'd like to go with Coldspring, but looking at the two schools' schedules and seeing that WOS's was much tougher, I'll go WOS by 7.

Judging from their performances against common opponents, Cleveland should win this one.   BC 23  Liberty 15 Cle 29 Lib - 7 BC  0   LCM  16 Cle  36 LCM 39 BC  20  HJ  10 Cle  35  HJ 7

[quote name="CMurder75" post="700948" timestamp="1257628236"] Coach Bob Jones down at Shepherd has won almost twice as much games in his first year at Shepherd [/quote] I do indeed congratulate Shepherd and Coach Jones, but Coach of the Year is not based on most improved.  22 3A coach of the year should go to the coach who won and kept a good program good.  My vote is Ricky Tullos of Cleveland, followed closely by Barbay of Coldspring.
