Huntsville held A&M Consolidated to 7pts and they were averaging about 50 a game. They also held Manvel to 10pts which is about 40 fewer than they were averaging. If FB puts up over 35 I think they win if not I think the Hornets advance.

Actually my 2 favorite Lambeau and Soldier. Never been to Mike High. But every home run hit at Coors field shouldn't count because the ball carries too far in that high altitude. Very unfair.

Not sure that would help. Hell he put 44 on them PAM boys last year and gave them that W.

Agreed about Malik at QB. The kid is great but Marshalls QB is no slouch and next year will be a top 10 dual threat in the state and he had several D1 receivers to throw too. Really he had more weapons than FB QB. I just think Huntsville will put pressure on him he hasn't seen this year. When PNG rushed 3 he could have had a popcorn and drink before he had to make a decision. PNG just didn't have the talent on D to even make him sweat. I was pulling hard for PNG but FB was just to much and the Indians had a horrible game plan and a ton of missed tackles. I think FB can definitely put up points but just not at the clip their used to. Just hope it turns out to be the game I think it's going to be.

Marshall was absolutely loaded. Skill position players and QB about as good as it gets. Heck think they even had a D1 offensive lineman if I'm not mistaken.

I can't wait to check it out. I don't think they will need many stops because I really think they will move the ball easily on FB. PNG wasn't going to win Friday no matter what your coach did but I do believe they were not prepared for that game. FB defense didn't impress me as much as PNG unimpressed me. FB will have to overload the box or Huntsville will run it down their throat. And if they play man with those little corners Huntsville will pick up huge chunks. You should look at the talent the Marshall team they just beat had. Not much different than FB. They also held Manvel to 10 points a couple weeks ago and Manvel had put up 50+ on almost everyone including FB.

Yes it was.

Huntsville defense did what it does. Big physical fast and puts a ton of pressure on the opposing offense. Marshall was loaded with talent and speed but Huntsville defense just keeps the pressure coming. You will see a lot of holding calls because their front 4 are absolutely nasty. Believe me they made a really really good QB for Marshall look average. Can't wait to check out the game next week.

Not a knock on PNG but if Huntsville plays FB Marshall you won't see kids running down the field not getting touched up. Marshall is extremely fast but probably one of the smallest teams I have seen this deep in the playoffs on the 5a level. I know speed kills but Huntsville IMO would be a horrible match up for FB. Huntsville is big fast and extremely physical. FB linebackers could not have weighed more than 160 lbs. Much like Manvel just smashed it down FB's throat I think Huntsville would do the same with the one exception, Huntsville has the best defense in the region and most likely the state Huntsville also has a passing game with very athletic receivers. Consolidated was averaging over 40 a game and struggled to score 7 on Huntsville. If I'm FB I'm pulling hard for a Marshall W tonight. But it's just my observation and I could be wrong. Only thing I know for sure is I will be there to watch it.

I remember back in 05 Marshall played Highland Park for the state championship game and got beat 59-0. Then again I believe Mathew Stafford was the qb for HP then. Lol

Very true. Wasn't a knock on this years team. Just have seen a ton of Manvel games over the years and your right they are still better than most any other teams in our region.

I can't pull it up. Who is that about?

So true. VY is still the best high school QB I have ever seen.

This was the weakest Manvel team I have watched in many years. I told people that when I saw them play Crosby. Manvel lost 18 starters last year which was loaded with D1 talent and their head coach left and is now the qb coach at Syracuse. Couple those things with Shadow Creek opening up and I'm actually surprised they are as good as they are. Side note had no idea BH QB was on kick off return. Not sure about that move.

Great year BH just a really tough first round matchup. I think you can take a lot of positives out of this year and should build on it next year.

Because she got really good singing at our games this year.

Called playing to win not just trying to keep the game respectable.

Yeah BH had to play a perfect game to have a chance and 3 int's wont get it done. Still think BH is heading in the right direction.

Thanks for the updates that Rodgers kid is a matchup nightmare.

Kid is surprisingly very fast and big. Would love to be wrong on this game.

Was it Rodgers again?

I think BH coach has made a decision to onside kick every time and the fake punt because he knows he needs some change of possessions and BH defense won't stop Manvel. I actually like it. Already had 2 change of possessions and will probably need like 5 or 6 like I said before this game to get the W.

Kam Scott was also a stud. Both kids were big athletic and extremely fast. Believe both were top 100 players in Texas. This years Manvel doesn't have kids at the receiver position even close to those kids abilities.

Their receiving core is no where close to the last few years. And yes their QB is average at best.

They did man a lot and their corners were small. I know Rio saw the same thing and it paid off on that last play. Rodgers will be the only matchup problem I see BH giving Manvel. Skill position wise with the exception of rb this was the weakest I have seen Manvel in a long time.
