So, will this one be streamed by PAM? I’d love to see it. Especially since the Dawgs are off.

Sounds about right. You should only need 4 wins to guarantee a spot. 4 wins by two teams would knock out some of the possible tiebreakers. I think 5 wins by two teams would eliminate tiebreaks for them unless there was a head-to-head needed between those two teams for seeding position. I think PAM can get there first because y’all’s Bye is later. I’d have to sit down and look at who could beat whom, and what it would mean to be sure. Right now, with PAM following LP opponents except for Lufkin, some teams are picking up two losses back-to-back. It’s going to be hard to keep PAM & LP from making PO’s at this time. Both only need one more win to pretty much lock up a spot. The rest will be duking it out. BWB’s loss to GCM really hurt them.

Y’all are gonna eventually need a passing attack better than what you showed against GCM. LP was in position to make some picks. They just didn’t complete. I think y’all probably will from—again—what I saw against GCM. With it being a rivalry game, and BWB being a better team than their record may show, it should be a fun game. I’d give the Bruins a chance. A very slim one. But, still a chance. I don’t think PAM will be able to just cruise. All I know right now is that LP is still on track to win their 4th District Championship in a row as banged up as they are—including the last time they were in 9-5A in 2023. 😎

Looked like it to me as well. But, ruled no TD catch. It was a great catch to not get credited. He probably should have held onto the ball longer when he got up to prove the catch. I don’t know if the Dawgs got a TD on that drive or not. The fumbles recovered by LP were clear as day on the game film I saw today. But, you have to be able to fight through that stuff and not let calls beat you. They did. So, that was good to me. I think PAM should be able to run okay on BWB. Bruins had an extra week to prepare & study, LP is on an all BU OL with at least one starter out for the year—maybe two—and pretty banged up and they said Simon still had around 250 & 3 TDs all on his own.

Yep. Those were some of the calls/no calls mentioned on FB. Peyton Smith’s early one-handed TD catch with a Bruin all over him that was called no TD, and the 2 late fumbles that were called down. There was another one earlier as well. One Bruin threw an elbow and connected. No call. Stevie Wonder was the only ref they could find to work the game. He seems to always work LP games in the Golden Triangle area. Dawgs still found a way to win.

I wish I knew the system. I was even thinking there might be multiple ties at different levels. Have NO clue how that would work, Would you break the first tie first, then move to the next, or what? 🤣😂😕

That's waffling. 😁 Pick one.

Who would you put above them at 4? RSS struggled with Ball, and their QB1 played.

I'm so confused, I don't have a clue. 🤣 For a snapshot after this week, I'd lean towards: PAM BU LP BWB PAM D dominant. BU looked like they were on fire. Whether it was a one game thing, or more, I don't know. But, they looked darn good last night. LP just because they found a way to win a tough road game with an all BU OL against a good team with an extra week to prepare. BWB because they seem to be better than what I saw earlier in the season. But, all this might change next week. NC didn't play after their emotional win, have an extra week to prepare, and have been right there multiple times. I just don't know if they have some of the dynamic playmakers like the other 4 yet.

Nothing about my "werewolves in the woods on a full moon" line? Man. I thought that was a good one for an old man. lol

If you can't read the article, it's on the Lufkin team page. I sure thought BU's QB had more yards than it says. Looked like they were completing everything. He doesn't look like a 'prototypical QB'. But man, he has an arm. He was firing off bullets.

They actually did that? hmmm

I saw a couple of very obvious BWB TO's that weren't called on some Facebook clips this morning. Some nice home cooking. But still, LP D is not anywhere near typical. LP needs this bye week bad. Maybe, they can get some health back. Clips I saw I noticed quite a few with only jerseys and shorts on. Just glad they came out with a win. Sometimes games like these can light a fire. BWB came to play like they always do against the Dawgs. Can't take any game lightly. This district has a lot of very good, young talent. Teams are going to be good for a few years with some talented playmakers it looks like. I don't know how it will turn out this year. But, the prospects for multiple teams having very good runs & 9-5A being one of the best districts in the State next year as these young men grow look very good. Some dynamic playmakers.

You said before the season they weren’t getting enough credit if I remember right… I think you nailed it. At least tonight.
