Hitchcock lost to Stafford in a close game. I'd have to say that HF takes this one. 

seems logical. But Hitchcock always has some dudes. I don't think they're quite as stout as they were a the last several years based on their first 4 results of the season.

Vidor 21
LCM 17

Thoughts? 

I’ll be curious to see how this plays out. 

Had a nice bounce back this week to get within sight of the top. 

Some final stats:

Broussard: 18-23, 269, 1 TD

Gilder: 13 rushes for 133 and a TD, 2 rec for 23 

Long: 8 rec for 109 

Bennett: 7 rushes for 48 and 2 TDs, 2 rec for 13 and a TD

Alfaro: 4 rushes for 77 and a TD

Forsythe: 4 rushes for 9 and a TD, 10 total tackles, 1 sack 

Reed: 9 total tackles, 1 sack

Loicano: 8 total tackles, 1 sack 

Singletary: 6 total tackles, 1 sack 

My kicker was up and down with his kickoffs, but his three punts averaged over 50 yds, regardless of what Maxpreps says.

Both lines did their jobs well, and the horns forced a couple of fumbles on plays where Stafford had hit for big gains. 

Totals:

269 yds passing
269 yds rushing

Nope. I didn't consider it a rout. 

HF coasted that game, and LCM gets some credit for that. They really took the air out of the ball, and had some good fortune to continue their two long drives that ate up 1/3 of the game. I think HF had 6 total possessions for the game and never punted. The energy tonight had a different feel, more like the vidor game. More “buzzsawish” 😉

Vidor could easily be 3 - 1, don’t know what team that was that played against HF.  Not taking nothing away from HF because they are legit but that was not Pirate Football when they played each other. 

HF is making a habit of leaving teams saying that. Stafford was a “4-pt favorite” over us tonight. Having said that, the rest of vidor’s season has impressed me.

Their coach definitely schedules to their favor, credit to him. Especially when you start the year 0-3 in the Distict of Doom.

I don’t blame him at all. It’s just weird how everyone got sucked in last year and it somehow carried over to this year despite them not beating even a single decent 4A squad during that time frame. 

Shepherd was okay last year and somehow got hyped up because they beat five 3A squads, Tarkington, and jasper. Then they lost a lot of key players. They’ve played awful teams this year to start 3-0, and I guess an 0-3 Madisonville was all it took to expose them. 

Stat of the night: HF with 5 rushing touchdowns.

Congrats. When I’m wrong I’m wrong, and I never would’ve seen this coming. 

Hopefully this helps. I haven't been in the political forum maybe 10 times this calendar year because it's gotten to the point that there's really no point at all.

Iowa wins comfortably. 

Give me HF 35-24. I think Stafford is good, and they're fast, but they also could easily be 1-2 and are getting some credit beating a couple of schools who aren't quite up to their usual standards. HF beat them 31-14 last year, and while Stafford may be better this year, so is HF.

I plan to relax and take notes Friday.  Bay is better than we think. They finished 3rd and went 3 deep last season in d1.

Focus on the cats and not the dogs

yeah. but La Vernia finished first in Bay City's district and made it to the state semis and then lost 49-0 to Kilgore. I don't think Bay City's a bad team, but I don't think they'd be ranked if they were anywhere else in the state (except if they were in the valley)

I took NC. It's a toss-up in my opinion.

West Orange won’t have much issue.. Bay City does have some athletes but I think they are a bit over rated.

tend to agree with this one. I have a feeling Bay City would finish 3rd or 4th in WOS's 4A-D2 district. 

doesn't feel like either of these teams are near what they were last year, but Silsbee will trend up while it seems BC is trending down.

Riding the yellow dog to Stafford this Friday. Should be a good test for my Horns.

Come on Bullets.  STA and Allen? Allen has more freshman than Desoto has students lol

The disparity with Allen wasn't that much different a couple of years ago when DeSoto beat them by 30. I'm not saying DeSoto should beat them, but a #1 team can't lose 50-6 to a team a division up and stay #1.

I love my Titans but #4 is too high.  And Desoto is #1.  They played the toughest nd schedule in the state so far

even playing tough, larger competition, you can't lose your first two games by a total of 88-22 and stay #1. 

With three timeouts left why not burn off ten more seconds there? It’s not much time, but they can go 35 yds in 25 seconds 

Horns showed us a couple of things tonight, regardless of the outcome.

1. They have a lot of stuff to clean up.

2. They have a lot of fight in them. It looked like this was gonna get real bad, now they’re a stop and score away from a win somehow
