Simon should be right at 200 yards now with 3 TD’s. Second Quarter 10:05 left.

!!:21/3/2/10/49 1 yard TD Simon

Simon just trucked a KP defender. Helmet flew off & he’s still down. Please get up young man… Whew. He was able to walk off.

Take that back. DE Campos is in.

I don’t see Ruffin or DE Campos. They were the injuries last week.

You can go ahead if you want & I can update the DCTF App

That should put him right at 1000 yards for the season.

Your stream is way ahead of mine. Texan Live is still on coin toss. I knew Simon was fast , but dang! Lol

If Bailey and his receivers are on the same page like the last 2 games, not good enough. IMHO, if Bailey has time to throw, he's going to pick pretty much anyone apart this year. He's really playing lights out ball right now.

Game Day. Go Dawgs!

Surprised they want a broader audience to be exposed to such violence. Hopefully, they rate it R.

I'm looking at Anderson, Weiss, AMC, then a toss-up with Hendrickson & CS. Anderson already has wins over CS & AMC.

Summer Creek does get King at home as well. That may make a little difference. But, I don't think SC's D is quite as good this year as it has been the last couple. Didn't they lose a bunch of D1 talent on D to graduation? The only team with a somewhat pulse SC has played so far is Shadow Creek, and that was 37-32.

LP did have some injuries against Friendswood. Not sure of severity. But, two key players were pulled early, and this is a short week.

I like Kingwood. But, the safe bet is still to think they're the odd man out. They may have a slim chance against Atascocita as bad as the Eagles D is this year, and they almost took them down last year. But, I don't think Kingwood has quite as good a run game this year. They are very disciplined though, and have a chance to slow down Mack. They could sneak up on NS I guess. But, I think that's less likely than Atascocita. I don't see any way they compete with King this year. King has some studs, and may be the best team in 23-6A this year. I think King can take Summer Creek. But, that's going to be a tussle and a definite Game of the Week to me. To me, 23-6A is lining up: King, SC, NS, with Atascocita/Kingwood battling for the 4 seed.

Usually don't start threads for other teams. But, I'm surprised this one isn't on here. This is a big game in 11-5A D1, and probably will decide PO seeding. DCTF has FWD as an 11 point favorite. But, I think it's going to be closer, and Crosby has a chance to pull an upset. The common opponent is Fort Bend Marshall, and Crosby actually played them closer than FWD. Crosby also had a pretty good non-district with their opponents going 9-1, so their record may be a little deceiving. I think this is a 3 point game one way or the other. Third seed may actually have closer travel with the way 12-5A is shaping up. Who wants it more?

Took @Justafan72 advice and sent a box of Krispy Kremes. 😂 KP gets an extra day of rest and practice. But, I think the Dawgs will be ready.

Updated prediction from DCTF has LP by 25.

La Porte at Kingwood Park from my recliner on Texan Live. Since it’s a Thursday game, might make a run to Buffalo Wild Wings and bring back pregame. Thursdays are BOGO wings—no limit.

I’m wondering how soon we’ll see the Frosh call-up (#17, Gonzalez) also on O, opposite Smith as WR? Make the opposing D have to guard two deep threats. First game Pass D was solid, and that leaping INT he had showed good hands. Don’t know his height. But, he looked over 6’ at least with speed. All this talented youth coming up & playing varsity already bodes well for the future. I’m thinking more teams are going to have to start moving talent up sooner, or they may go where they can play. I like what LP is doing. If they can play at varsity level and contribute, play ‘em.

Best stats I could find: Sean Simon Through 4 Games splitting carries with Ruffin: 918 yards 11 TD's 7.4 ypc La Porte's Opponents are a combined 12-5, with 3 of those losses coming to La Porte. All four opponents were PO teams in 2024, with 2 moving on to the 4th Round.

DCTF projection: LP +39 Not sure about that spread. But, we’ll see. LP did look more like they were rounding into form again. D was much improved as far as fundamentals, and penalties were down. Special Teams still allowed a TD return though. That’s 2 this year on KO’s. Still need to keep improving.

Rivals now has La Porte's Sean Simon as the #1 ranked recruit in Texas, the #2 ranked RB in the country, and the #15 overall recruit in the country C/O 2028.

Have they played one?

They're getting things set after our game. Similar to last year. Many of the adjustments discussed were made. Berneathy treats pre-district as a learning period. Although, I know he'd also prefer winning the games vs losing them. I hope we keep playing each other--pending realignment issues--as the last game before district. It's a good, physical test where each team can learn a lot about their needs before the 'real season' starts. Even though it's physical, both teams play clean. So, unless it's just an accident, injuries aren't really a concern. Can't say that about every team.
