Actually, if PAM loses, LP is the 1 seed due to no three way tie & the win over BH. 😁
If PAM & BH both lose, LP 1 Seed & outright DC. If BH wins & PAM loses, BH & LP Co-DC’s, and LP 1 seed. If BH wins & PAM wins, BH, LP, & PAM are Co-DC’s and BH is 1 seed, LP 2 seed, PAM 3 seed.
LP’s actually in the catbird seat with no less than Co-DC & 2 seed and finished with district play.
Not sure if a bye week before PO’s is good or not though.
Edit to this for the breaking news:
The tiebreak max points is 14 instead of 18. So, LP would be 3rd seed and travel to Forney (I’m assuming) if BH & PAM both win. The rest stays the same.

So a little breaking news...there was some confusion with the coaches in the district regarding the tiebreaker...they met today and confirmed the cap is +/- 14
So if there's a 3 way tie it'll end up
1) BH +7
2) PAM -3
3) LP -4
La Porte likely headed to DFW Rd 1
Except for the travel, LP may be a better matchup with Forney than PAM anyway. And, LP hasn’t had a ‘Home’ game all year anyway.

1 Barbers Hill
2 Port Arthur Memorial
3 La PorteIf it happens, may actually be a better matchup for the district from the 2/3 seed perspective & run D’s. After watching a little of Forney, LP vs. Forney tilt would be like 2 Shermans playing Rock Em Sock Em Robots. LOL

Seed 1 or 2, I just want BH to play at home.
Same for LP. At least at someone’s stadium close to home anyway.

Crazy part about that: the 1seed may very well have the tougher matchup than the 2seed 1st round. McNorth is the team you wanna face out of 7-5A D1, they will be the 3seed out of that district.
Haven’t watched any of them enough to know. But, if they’re in the PO’s, they aren’t a slouch.

To me personally, out of the presumed PO teams—BH, LP, PAM, & Porter—BH seems to be gaining momentum at the right time. It may have just been the PAM rivalry game. This week will tell. But, they looked on point in all aspects. LP looked like they were just playing solid against Crosby—not spectacular by any means. PK was having definite issues. The game showed they could maintain focus. While the run game is probably one of the best around, the O is still primarily one dimensional, and can be slowed with a stacked box. PAM is going into the PO’s a little banged up. Always a concern. Porter is explosive. But, their D is highly suspect.
I think all four are good teams. BH, LP, & PAM could play each other multiple times, and probably still split the wins as they are all fairly close. But, they each have their particular weaknesses. Even BH—as hot as they seemed to be against PAM—showed weakness against a solid pass rush and penetration like LP.
Another game left to see. I’m seriously hoping for no more injuries that might hurt any of their PO chances. Also hope the bye week doesn’t hurt LP. Double edged sword to me from a continuity standpoint. Would love to see 8-5A go at least 3-1 first round.

Irony:
BH having to root for a PAM win & 3 way tie for district championship to get the 1 seed. 😂
-
Incidentally, I must admit even I am a little surprised at LP this year.
Remember, they haven’t played a single true home game all year, and only the 2nd year of the new staff. (Even though Berneathy was here previous, and familiar with LP & culture.)
Talk about powering through adversity.

Go Panthers! 🤣

Hopefully we win, Porter wins, then we don't travel. 😁 Oh, and we'd be co-district champs with the 1seed.
True. That would definitely be a twist at the last game after Friday.

With the big win by the Eagles over PAM they now control their own destiny! Win and they are the District Champs with the 1 seed going into the playoffs, but lose and they could potentially drop to the 4 seed. Huge game for the Eagles at Porter Friday night and they must bring their best to Randall Reed to finish the season. Porter sports an hell of an athlete at QB with two twin towers on the post routes. Porter is not a great team over all, but they play hard and can surprise a team if they aren’t focused. BH just needs a win and to walk out of there healthy. Who you got?

Not with what they returned, that's how I knew it was a playoff year.
The disappointment is Crosby, wasn't expecting that this season.
Pretty big drop off for sure.

Was really hoping I would be completely wrong on this. Smdh.
I remember experts picking LP 6th, and I said no way. Stepp was the outlier. But—even he only said 4th.
LP has returned very quickly under Berneathy & staff to former self. With the talent coming up & returners, future looks very bright again.
Just have to see about alignment.

LP getting a home game period from how I understand it. As the 2seed.
If BH loses to Porter and MHS wins Titans get the 1seed
If BH beats Porter it's a moot point, BH gets the 1seed and the Titans are traveling.
If both lose next week I believe it stays as is and we're traveling.
Now that I’m thinking about it, if BH wins & PAM loses, LP is also 1 seed due to head-to-head & no 3-way scenario.
BH needs to root for PAM & themselves.
LP can be 1 seed if both PAM & BH lose, or if just PAM loses.

Yes.
The last scenario I highly doubt happens but it is Week-11, might get weird.
Weird is 10-5A today. Manvel & them guys are all scrambled up.

Except LP would be 1 seed if y’all both lose.

Deal? 😂
This would put both Play Off games at BH. Unless LP chooses another field which they may because you know BH will take the Friday slot
Berneathy was already talking a Saturday game. I guess that’s what he’s anticipating anyway.
The rooting sure changed in the last week! 🤣🤣😂

Read the post after that one.
Okay. Still a little confused. BH—with a win—would get a home game. LP will get a ‘home’ game regardless unless LP loses to BYE next week.
Correct?
(This is where I really should be rooting for Porter & KWP.) 😁

In 2 weeks Forney will host either Port Arthur Memorial or Barbers Hill in the 1st round.
Good luck with all that.
Huh?
I thought if BH wins next game, they’d be 1 seed & get a home game against Tyler or Lancaster?
LP can finish no worse than District Co-Champ & 2 seed with a home game.

Must be approaching the 6A threshold you think?
Wish I could find out. LP seems to always hold stuff close to the vest & I’m not very connected anymore. Just a fan.
Bunch of new homes & apartments/townhomes. I assumed a lot were younger families with younger kids. Maybe not.
Of course La Porte is open enrollment also. That may be part of it.
-
Announcers on LPSportsnet just mentioned LP’s enrollment had the largest jump in a long time. No specific number given though.
-
I have no idea who half or more of the boys playing for LP are right now. But, good for them to get on the field!

I don’t think part of scenario is correct. If BH wins & PAM loses, there’s no 3-way tie. It would revert to head to head between BH & LP with LP holding the tiebreak due to its win over BH.
