  1. Katy's Defense makes it hard to pick against them......unless they have a complete meltdown vs NS....I think they have the defense to win this game. Evans is a beast....and NS will be THE team to beat the next 3 years....but Katy's starting defense hasn't allowed a TD since Nov. 2nd. The goal every week is to not to hear the other teams fight song.  Will be a great atmosphere. Can't wait.

    pe2009, which RB is #2. He had good size and speed, but had like 3 fumbles against Cy Ranch. Is he younger or just having some fumble issues? I was at the game and was scratching my head to see a Katy player fumble so many times. Just curious is all.

    Jr Deondrick Glass.....recovering from ACL surgery and still not 100%....was on varsity as Freshman and soph, changed Jersey from 30 to #2....Yes....don't know what happened with him and Josh(#5) vs Cy-Ranch....neither turned the ball over all season and both put it on the turf multiple times vs Cy-Ranch...very unusual. And understandbly, Atascocita worked on stripping the ball. We were all scratching our heads because like I say....hadn't had a fumble all year.

  3. Just my two cents....it's hard to have a lights out D when you have a quick strike offense. You have to work together. If your Defense gives you a 3 and out....and the offense comes out throwing the ball deep......you're putting your defense right back on the field. You want those guys FRESH. I cant remember what year it was, Katy vs Manvel, but Manvel had 1 possesion the entire second half....Katy slowly pounded their defense to the ground to the fact that Manvel had to use timeouts because Defenders where taking too long to get off the ground. You need a complete system...Offense and Defense should be on the same game plan. Coach Joseph is a defensive minded coach.....You will always be succesfull if you play defense.....even without studs and having undersized players...Katy's Defense is usually pretty good...see 2008 and 2010. His philosopy is "reward your defense by letting them sit"

    I don't understand the love for Ridge Point.  They've just not played any tough opponents.  I think there are at least six D1 teams in R3 that will easily dispatch them.  They're out in the second round to the winner of Lamar v Cy Fair.  I pick Cy Fair.

    True, they' played I think 4 teams with a winning record:

    Stratford 7-3

    Travis 7-3

    Kempner 7-3

    Bush 6-4

    I agree 100% LC hates defense but if they can force a shootout... well that's another issue. "Not good... LOL!". Steele will crush the Region 3 Champ but  Desoto is my overall favorite. Their QB is special.

    Stars have finally lined up for Desoto to get a title......lets see if they can do it.

    Div 1 is ridiculous... I see a Katy vs NS matchup to decide the Region 3 Champs.

    Div 2 is literally whoever wants it the most. Should be fun! Langham Creek scoring ability will be a problem. George Ranch appears to be hitting a stride. Dawson has the talent to win any given day. Friendswood has one the most exciting players in the bracket and of course LaPorte rough as heck. I can't pick anyone for this bracket.  

    Langham Creek's lack of D will get them.....they SHOULD get out of the first round this time....been a minute I think. Region 3 D2....Wide open is right, but "Not good" is another word. Anyone can win it, but I don't see anyone coming close to beating Steele win they make it out the region.

    Cy-Ranch, Katy, North Shore and Alief Taylor are all on the same side of the bracket. I really like Cy-Ranch but their scare against Cy-Ridge kind of makes me give Katy the edge to beat them and play for the regional title. I've been high on Ridge Point, who shouldn't even be playing in D1 with their enrollment, all year. I kind of cooled on them when BJ Rainford was lost for the year but they're giving up less than 8ppg on the season defensively. I think Cy-Fair beats Lamar in a tight one but if Ridge Point can knock off the winner of that game I see them playing Katy for the regional championship.

    I think D2 is wide open in region 3 but I like Cy-Ridge or Dawson to make the regional final from one side of the bracket. I wouldn't be surprised if they're playing George Ranch who might be getting hot right now or Langham Creek who's had to grind through that Cy-Fair ISD district.

     

    Yep. I think it comes down to Atascocita and Ridge Point at the bottom half of the bracket. I also think Cy-Fair knocks off Lamar. 3rd round match up between Katy and North Shore is a possibility.....I would favor either over Ridge Point depending on how healthy the winner comes out of that battle.

    I see what you mean.  Ranch certainly has one of the best coaches in the area.  But, part of the reason Ranch has progressed quite far in the playoffs has been that R3 D1 frequently has been weak.  Not so this year, it is one of the best.  Most years with the teams Ranch and Fair have, I would think they could get to the Region Tille game.  Not so this year, that Region is stacked as I said earlier, it looks like murders row.

    Not only would I say The Woodlands is the exception, they currently have what appears to be the best D in the area.  Pretty impressive how they shut down Katy's Glass to 66 yards when he was averaging 230 a game leading into their game.  They did the same thing to George Ranch and otherwise undefeated West Brook in even more impressive fashion 72-7.

    Ranch has typically been D2.....they had Keith Ford and faced Katy in the regional finals in 2012(After beating Manvel) and was Katy's toughest opponent last season with a good chance of knocking them off in round 2 this year

    Are you saying playing the spread has anything to do with defense or just that they don't play the spread and have a good defense?  The Woodlands unlike Katy, plays the spread and both have top notch defenses.

    I live in Cypress...every district game is important so most of the teams....all, not named Cy-Fair or Ranch...throw all the athletes on offense and try to outscore district opponents....they don't have the luxury of using non-district game to "Work on certain things". Most spread teams have horrible defenses(Woodlands have been the exception) To run a offense like Katy, Cy-Fair and Cy-Ranch....you NEED to play defense...defense first then a time consuming offense. Cy-Fair traditionally has been one of the top CFISD teams year in, year out...Since Cy-Ranch opened 7 years ago they have been two two regional title games and a State title game. Cy Ranch and Cy-fair like Katy....don't put all the playmakers on Offense and actually play good defense. Some other teams in CFISD:

    Jersey Village...FEWEST points they've given up this season is 35. Given up 58+ 4 times this season

     

    Cy-Springs....great offense but in 3 consecutive games gave up 73,72,62

     

    Cy-Ranch and Cy-Fair are the only 2 teams in district that have allowed fewer than 200 points

    I was looking at the other two in Cy Fair District in D2 and think they may make some noise.  It's clear the vast majority of really good teams have gone D1.  I think Cy Ridge, Dawson, Langham Creek LaPorte and George Ranch are the class of the group.  The best in that group is no better than fifth in the D1 group.  It's a good year to be in R3 D2.  I really like the Cy Schools, GR and maybe Dawson to come out as the Region Rep.  I don't rule out LaPorte, but they are probably my fifth pick.

    D2 is literally WIDE open without Katy...Friendswood is my sleeper.

    Ridge Point will get Lamar or Cy-Ranch in the second round, if they were D2 where their enrollment should fall they walk away with the region mostly uncontested. I agree with you on Steele because they won't have to play Ridge Point who has only given up 71 points the entire season. Alief Taylor will get Dickinson in the first round. There will be a bunch of good teams that won't go far.

    1-4 in Cy-Fair ISD is better than any other four in Houston, the only district with an argument is 24-6A with Dickinson, Clear Springs, Clear Creek and Friendswood. Check Cy-Fair ISD's resume, every now and then the Spring or Klein district is tougher but 10 high schools with 3,000+ students and resources is hard to compete with.

    I watched Manvel basically dominate North Shore, NS is the squad that has benefitted from playing in an extremely weak district a down Westfield and Atascocita this year. I promise you when they were 1-3 last year nobody was talking titles on this side of town. North Shore is very good but Taylor looks a lot better than NS did going into the season finale last year and will probably meet in the second round this year. Overall the teams in R3 6A-D1 have combined for about a dozen state title game appearances in last decade so, every game after bi-district will be regional final quality..  

    Cy-Ranch would get Katy 2nd round. Ridge point would get the winner of Cy-Fair and Lamar. I wouldn't call CFISD the "Best" district.....having only one non district game makes their games more important.....but not necessarily the best....Cy-Fair and Cy-Ranch are the only two non-spread teams and actually play defense so they have the best chance of getting past round 2 year in year out.
