wild times over there. probably a 3-4 TD favorite over the bucs 6 weeks ago.

If i have to pick a team with the best chance, it's lumberton. But Pine Tree is solid, battle-tested, and playing their best football of the year. In their last three games they upset Chapel Hill, lost 17-10 to a 9-1 Lindale team that should be ranked well inside the top-10, and had a comfortable win against a bad palestine team to end the season. I struggle to pick any of the district 10 teams because I struggle to envision a scenario where any of them could make the playoffs in district 9.

fairfield would beat EC by 35, but the Teague loss and the close Diboll win were pretty telling.

Texas getting Wingo, Taaffe, and McDonald back this week couldn't come at a better time.

tough first round matchup for sure.

These are always kinda tough to predict. I think HF wins in a close one. La Marque has improved a lot this year. Their sophomore QB has similar numbers to ours, and their running game is better. But they’ve played a much softer schedule, and have greatly padded their stats in 5 games against complete cupcakes. HF played one cupcake. LM lost to 2/3 of the quality teams they’ve played, and that Huffman win has lost some value over the course of the year. One common opponent in Hitchcock, who HF beat and who beat LM by 3 touchdowns. And is that close loss to Columbia last week a good loss (like I felt HF’s loss to WOS was), or is Columbia just an average team also benefiting from a weak 6-game district schedule?

Comfortable 1st round matchup for the Indians

Doesn’t help that nobody in that district could finish better than 3rd (quite possibly 4th) in the local 4A-D2 district that 3 of them ran from competing against.

Just what I was about to say.

WOS wins it. Hell of a game. Nothing to be ashamed of for the horns. They battled all night. Congrats to the stangs on their district championship!

Heck of a ballgame. Big time drive from WOS to eat 5 min and take the lead.

Heck of a ballgame

Fun game

Horns might should’ve been using some timeouts. Not leaving themselves any time assuming WOS scores here

It’s good!

Horns with a short FG attempt to take the lead incoming. Delay of game pushes it back 5 yds

Horns take over after a muffed punt. Now down inside the WOS 10

I will say this: when the player found that watch he looked like he knew exactly what he was expected to do with it, and it wasn’t to hand it to the ref. That struck me the first time I saw the video, and nothing that’s happened since has shaken my original impression.

Touchdown horns! !!:17/13/3

Just turned the game back on. Did the horns get a stop to start the half?

Gonna be tough. Horns shot themselves in the foot a couple times there and are still in it. Considering this is a similar matchup to Silsbee, and with what happened in the first half of that game, I’ll dang sure take it

Was not expecting this at all

District confuses me

Pretty good half for the horns in a game a lot of folks thought they’d get beaten soundly in. They still may, but had a great drive to open the game and came up with some nice stops on defense. They’ve given themselves a chance
