I'll be there representing the site. Got exclusive interviews coming!!

Nice story.

[quote name="LAZEEK" post="1030081" timestamp="1312166192"] Rich? [/quote] Figure of speech. I know we impoverished folks here in Silsbee cannot stack up to those "enlightened" citizens of Sour Lake. ;D

Isn't this 3 straight years that Jasper High school has been rated "Unacceptable" and now 4 of the last 6 years that WOS High has been rated "Unacceptable"?

'6"5 junior from New Orleans '6"4 junior from Port Arthur From watching that Silsbee team at the summer tourney, that was all they were lacking, a good solid post player.

I see 21-3A like this: 1. HJ 2. Silsbee 3. WOS

Bad thing is, all 10 of those games were actually district games and back then only the district champion (Silsbee) advanced to the playoffs. Silsbee advanced to the state semifinals losing to eventual state champion Dickinson 12-6.

BONFIRE!!!!! There is no better tradition!

Silsbee started playing much better football as the season progressed. They were a much better team in those last 9 games than they were in those first 5. After defeating WOS in Bi-District, they then beat Carthage 48-20 in Area Round, defeated El Campo 28-7 in Quarterfinal, but then lost to La Marque in Regional Finals 20-14. [/quote] I watched that game between Silsbee and LaMarque in the Dome.  The Tigers gave LaMarque a tough matchup.  They no doubt were playing their best football at the end of the season and were a better team than the bunch WO-S saw earlier in the year.  I still believe WO-S had a better chance at beating LaMarque than Silsbee did, but we didn't earn the chance to find out.   [/quote] Losing that LaMarque game was tough considering that Silsbee fumbled inside the Cougar 10 yard line twice (one of those times was at the 2 yard line) and one of those LaMarque TD's was from returning a block field goal attempt by Silsbee in the 3rd quarter. I do not think Silsbee beats Stephenville that year (that's who beat LaMarque in the state title game) but the way Silsbee was improving and peaking as the season progressed, I would have loved to had seen that matchup.

They gave us a run for our money. We were their only loss for the season I believe. And some people say that we were one of the best teams WOS had since 87. We had awesome teams in 95 97 and 98. But we kept running into the LaMarque Cougars. They were a dynasty in the 90s. [b]Then in 98, we played horrible against a great sislbee team and lost first round.[/b] I believe we were number 2 in state behind LaMarque or Stephenville. [/quote] Hmmm..... played "horrible against a great Silsbee team". Well first of all, that "great" Silsbee team did lose 5 games that year, so I wouldn't consider them great. Second, I think Silsbee had a lot to do with how "horribly" WOS played in that particular game. Third, Silsbee didn't play all that great themselves in that game, with missing 3 field goals and fumbling inside the 10, missing out on 4 other potential scores in that 21-20 win. Now kicker, don't let me confuse you with that "other" Mustang fan that always points out that when WOS loses, they play "horrible" and the other team plays "great". ;) ;D [/quote] LOL, no. I see what you are saying. Just goes to show that even though you can lose 5 games in regular season, you can peak at the right time and make a run. We both played sloppy that night, but anyone that was at that game will agree with me objectively.  Silsbee beat us plain and simple, but you have to admit that we didn't play anywhere near our expected potential. I think playing a playoff game in port Arthur had something to do with it. [b]Also, silsbee won their next two I believe, so you can't say it was the same silsbee team we played earlier in the season. Seemed like a totally different team.[/b] [/quote] I agree, Kicker.

Sorry Aggiearewe. I don't recall every Silsbee football game ever played. Who did they play? Wasn't it CE KING? Tell me if I'm wrong. [/quote] You said it was LaGrange. Now you are asking if it was CE King.  ::) The topic asks what was the first HS game (with KNOWLEDGE of) that you attended.
