It's highly likely that the Coogs will ride the L train to the regional finals where it's highly likely that they will face another 234A opponent just like last year. Yes it's true that this years version is very different from last years Championship team. So different that they beat playoff contender 5A Pearland. Something the Champs didn't accomplish. By the way, how many 5A schools did the L train run over? La Marque paid a price to whip the big boys but everyones 100% now. Not the case when the losses ocurred. I will be surprised if the choo choo boys can stay on track with the whooooosh boys.......but if they do, you should go deep in your first playoff season.

I was at a LaMarque vrs Sante Fe game enjoying halftime. As the Coog band was starting to leave the field an Indian fan stood up and yelled " Don't leave, PLEASE!!!!...The Coogs will come back!!!! well, it was funny if you were there.

Man you mid county guys are something else........Be very careful what you wish for. Three very large 5A schools in a row downed by a small 4A school who has not had their running back the last two and a half games....you know, the one that destroyed PNG.

Just a few post game comments......I believe the comments after last years Nederland game were simular to earlier posts on this thread...." Coogs didn't impress me, etc etc" however a State championship remains impressive.....Also, many of you have overlooked LM penalties that removed them from PNG's TWO yard and FIVE yard line. Best to be objective guys.............. In an earlier post I ststed that LM was smallish and learning a new system...how fast do you want them to learn? I would say sometime around the second playoff game of which I think they will be 9 and 2. At that time let the chips fall to the best team. Where will PNG be then?

I really beleive that the Coogs will surprise everyone with a conservative game. Notice I didn't say victory. Realize folks that this is an untested commodity. New coaching staff with only one or two exceptions, totally new offensive strategy, totally new defensive strategy, and for the first time in a long time....considerably smaller players with out blazing team speed. I am a staunch Coog fan, but I am also a realist, and the product will have to speak for itself before I am convinced that it is a traditional fast physical LaMarque team. The Indians will provide a reasonable test for the new Coogs and the margin of victory EITHER WAY will not influence the ultimate goal of a state championship. See you at Reliant!!!!!!!!!!!!

Gosh, I would have suspected that LaMarque had about the best name recognition of any team around. Especially for a school with between 900 and 1000 enrollment. Thanks for the enlightment. (sp)?

LaMarque verse Tyler John Tyler. Freezing rain , LaMarque loss, long drive home and a speeding ticket! Too bad LaMarque was not that fast that night.....LOL.

www.attblueroom.com has entire game in archive section. With enough visits perhaps they will expand the coverage to all divisions. Worth a shot. Oh, by the way, you can skip the first quarter...heh heh

Excuse me , Wolforth and Waco did not play for the championship. That would have been Lamarque and Waco. If I recall , LaMarque was preseason rated at 10, so big picture is the same. 10 might not be accurate, but they were no higher.

You know Scooter, I was there and for the life of me, I didn't see Waco score 34 unanswered points on themselves! It interests me that LaMarque didn't beat themselves with a tipped pass and a wrong defense called on Wacos 2 yard line. I guess the victory is indeed in the eyes of the beholder. Looking forward to meeting some good GT teams next year including PNG at Reliant.

Small correction, Waco was also beaten by Tyler Lee . They have two losses. This will be a very physical contest with many athletic players on both sides. Lots of hard hits on defense with Waco appearing to have a small advantage on the offensive side, and tradition and experience in the big one favoring Lamarque. It has already begun with LaMarque winning all the coin tosses. Home team in SanAntonio on Friday!

Eighth State Final game in 11 years. Can we call them a powerhouse now, or are they just a lucky team with a good record?

Yeah...records just happen, teams have nothing to do with them. Funny about how they just pick a team and stick with them. Like four state championships and two games away from a fifth in the last ten years. Just lucky I guess.......

LaMarque by how many they want it to be.

When I'm not at a LaMarque game I enjoy both Nederland and PNG.
