This nasty rain is the only thing that stopped this from being over at halftime

I'd feel a lot better picking woodville if Babin hadn't moved to Transfer Hill.

3 polls probably gives the fairest representation to the 4A and 1A schools, but it's more work and it'll dilute the polls. Gonna end up with some top ten teams with losing records.

if you do, will it be polls for 6A-4A and 3A-1A?

was getting on here to say this. we're usually good for a couple of teams in there.

finally.

should be a fun one.

I've started replying to all the texts with "I told myself I'd vote for the opponent who texted me next, so I guess you lose!"

LCM just needs to "band" together and get the win.

glad I wasn't planning on fishing today. Traffic is bad enough near shift change.

I'd expect LCM to win this one, but this district is so weird who the heck knows.

I'm real curious what that post game speech sounded like the other day, and what the end of practices are looking like this week after the shenanigans on here.

turds float, too, which must be why I'm so close to the top.

slight chance of rain friday night. if that happens it'll definitely help Shepherd more than us.

Probably a little closer, but I’ll be surprised if it’s close.

Seems reasonable. The hawks will be greatly overmatched, but they have a couple of dudes, including one of the best players in the district. Anytime they get the ball in his hands there’s a chance of him breaking a big one.

All three are more than capable, but you are correct

No, he fumbled, one of our guys jumped on it but didn’t recover it, and I can only assume the ref thought he had it and blew the play dead as the ball bounced to another player who was picking it up and was off to the races. The ball had been out for a decent amount of time when he blew it dead. as to your BTW: I believe so. He blew it about simultaneously with our player picking it up, but there wasn’t a tiger within several yards of him. It was a really unfortunate error. At higher levels I believe the “clear recovery” would’ve been awarded at the spot after a video review, but the rule is clearly different in high school.

Who invited grumpy uncle Sal to the party? Also, have you watched even a minute of HF football this year? We were an inadvertent whistle away from shutting Silsbee out the final 30 minutes of the game last night. Would’ve been 7 or 8 consecutive stops I believe. We shutout Hitchcock and LCM, and our first team d held Vidor to a field goal. They scored 70 last night in case you didn’t see it. We also played a great defensive half against WOS, but wore down late. Like every defense in the state we’re going to give up points to quality offenses, but I’m pretty confident saying at worst our defense is above average. We may or may not go three rounds or further, but I’d sure like to understand what you’re basing this statement on.

I think I agree with most of this, but would prefer the horns get a second shot at both teams.

I’ll leave it at this: Silsbee played a fantastic game. They should be proud of how they performed. The defense bottled us up for most of the first half and the offense was on fire, jumping out to a big lead. At the end of the game the defense got some huge stops to put it away. On the flip side, HF showed incredible resilience. Opportunist defense and some huge plays by Broussard and company completely turned the game around. What looked like a Silsbee blowout turned into a game the horns were in a great position to win. They should be proud of how they bounced back. I consider myself to be pretty articulate, but I’m really struggling to find the right words to express just how much that blown call affected that game last night while still giving the tigers the huge amount of credit they deserve for a fantastic performance, so I’m going to quit trying. Congrats on the win, and good luck moving forward. Maybe we’ll get a chance to run it back in a few weeks.

Can confirm that an inadvertent whistle killed the play a split second before our dude with 4.5 speed and nobody between him and the Silsbee endzone recovered it. Silsbee took the lead the next play. What’s even wilder is we recovered a fumble in bounds the play before and it was ruled out.
