The score is surprising, I saw this one 28-14 in kvilles favor 

Ok I’m not losing my mind, the kid has ridiculous speed 

One thing Coldspring isn’t lacking is size, those boys are big! Seems like #8, I think that’s the number, one with long hair, has been there for 5 years!  Wasn’t he QB one year?

4 year starter on Varsity 

Don’t know what to say, Coldspring came to play and Diboll rode the back of their defense again with a shutout.

Coldspring had not been shut out since 2019 by Diboll… not often you see a 3-0 final score game 

Diboll might have something to say about being the district champion. They’ve still got to play Coldspring but they already beat Woodville and Westwood 

They were to #18 LB

Diboll D did a relatively good job containing the Eagle QB, who is very shifty and good arm,  major credit goes to the secondary for great coverage.  Woodville QB couldn’t find an open WR most of the game, aside from Woodvilles first drive with long pass, Diboll secondary did a great job.  Can’t forget about the Dline as well, they were able to get going in the 2nd half.  
 
westwood freshman qb Bryant will be the most dynamic QB Diboll will face thus far. Westwood offense seems explosive so will be a tough challenge for Diboll D. 

My opinion is that he will have some success on designed QB runs (if they complete a few short routes) although Diboll is very stout defending the run. I think he will struggle in the pocket unless Westwood has a stellar pass block on the Oline. To me his success in this game will depend on his run pass decision making when he rolls out to the left of right. Diboll has a decent pass rush and has speed in the secondary, so rolling out to one side makes things interesting. This shortens the field which creates the opportunity for big offensive or defensive plays since both offense and defense is flowing in the same direction. Personally I think Diboll will do fine because I do not believe their QB has seen too many quality defenses based off their pre-district schedule. 

You a former coach? I respect your insight on lot of topics

I still believe that Woodville, Diboll, and Coldspring will be battling it out for 1st.  If I’m honest, Woodville is the team to beat.  They looked really strong when I saw them in Diboll last season which Diboll won 21-14.  Could have gone either way.  I believe they returned a good bit.  Of course you have Coldspring who beat Diboll last year but I still left more impressed with Woodville’s capabilities.  
 
Palestine Westwood still has to prove they can actually be competitive against a true solid team.  They’ve had a couple weak opponents to start the season.  I believe Palmer will be the first true test to see where PW is this year.  The PW freshman QB will only get better and will be a fun one to watch.  Does he have the supporting cast? They’ve been at the bottom of the district last couple of seasons 
With what Diboll lost from graduation, it’s a toss up to where they land this year.  they’re not short of talent, just experience.  They get Coldspring and PW at home so maybe home field advantage gives them an edge

Score Alert: Kirbyville(0) @ Diboll(14) Halftime

Huffman-Hargrave HS 

If you want to see two of the top QBs in 3A then this is the one to go see.  Both QBs have 2000+ passing yards with impressive completion %.  
 
Columbus sophomore QB, 6’4” Adam Schobel is the son of Columbus HC/AD, and former NFL tight end, Matt Schobel.  Diboll’s secondary will be tested by the Columbus passing game.  If Diboll wants to keep this one close, they’ll need to force some punts and keep the Columbus O off the field.  Will be the toughest game since Franklin 

Good win Trojans! Those kids never gave up.  Diboll had their opportunities to go ahead but couldn’t capitalize.  All credit to Coldspring, their kids looked ready to play from the start.  A bit of a rivalry between Diboll and Coldspring

The passing game will probably one of the best Diboll has seen in a long time.  Harris has a good arm and seems to be smart with his decisions and throws.  The run game is starting to catch up.  Stats from Friday I believe were 250/250 run/pass yardage
 
 

Yeah I wish this game was later on the schedule but both teams should be ready to go by now. 

Great game diboll yall played well... both have little things to clean up here and their but nothing that can't be fixed. Good luck down the road

If there’s something I’ve learned the past couple of seasons is Diboll will have a couple head scratcher losses early on but then fix or work on the glaring weaknesses.  They try to build on every week and try to peak when it counts, district and beyond.  Now to be real they had a rough game vs Madisonville.  Looked like they’re missing a couple key starters one bring their starting QB.  

Diboll wins game 3——4-1 and moves on to regional final
