That was exactly my reaction.   But let’s see if they can’t get the win anyway.  And regardless, that’s why Coach Sig schedules these games I’m sure.  Little chance anyone pushes them to OT in district, so these close games are invaluable in prepping for a playoff run. 

28-23 Tigers at the half.

This will be Silsbee's 10th 6A opponent of the season (20th game). The other 10 games consist of 7 5A's, 2 4A's and a 3A (top ranked Dallas Madison). A total of 9 state ranked opponents in the first 19 games.

That was a very nice tribute to the Jones Family from Hardin Jefferson. 

I will take HJ +26 for all you can eat. 

I enjoyed watching the game. Silsbee has some dawgs on that team. Liked what I saw from #15 the PG. Those guys harassed Lufkin backcourt all night. This game is just what we needed. Silsbee came out and punched Lufkin in the mouth. Think they were up 9 or 11-0 to start the game and lead the entire first half. I figured Lufkin would have to adjust to playing a team that has some athletes. Lufkin knows what they need to work on now to get better.  Austin Brown was held to 2 points the first half. I can tell Silsbee had scouted him. Had someone in his face from the start. Done much better the second. Prob ended up with about 20 points. 
Lufkin run actually started after the starting center and guard were injured. Walker eventually returned in the 4th qtr. Much respect to Silsbee. Can't really see a lot weaknesses in that team. I think #1 should be more aggressive though. That guy can pretty much get his shot when he wants. Hope you guys get healthy soon. I'll be pulling for you.

I'll keep you all posted with updates. If I don't see any at the end of each qtr.

26-22 Cy Wood leads halftime 

I think Silsbee got the first dunk….. so theoretically they won the game.

Funny it seems that its always a call near or at the end of the game that will be questioned that cost the losing team the game. Fact is that bad calls or missed ones are part of the game. Football is an imperfect game, that's why it's played and why we love it. I can't remember how many Cuero games I have left fuming because I felt of a bad call and then show me video or replay of the play and  OMG  I wouldn't sleep the rest of the week. This game was no different. You had two great teams so evenly match that the game could have gone either way. The turning point I felt was when Silsbee had Cuero down 20-7 and seem to let off the gas pedal defensively. I also felt Cuero made better half-time adjustments offensively because neither team could stop the other. Those are my thoughts.  Silsbee has a great team and from the post's great fans, I have no doubt you will be back and if Cuero is not there, I will be pulling for you.  As for now thank you both for one of the most exciting games of the ages. 

Great game by both teams and after the first few minutes I thought Cuero was going to get blown out. Halftime adjustments to the offense by Cuero was the difference and the TE ate the tigers up. I’ll admit Silsbee was more athletic and faster by a step by my Gobblers never quit and pulled it out. #1 is a baller good luck to him in the future. I’m still in shock 🫣
 
GO MEAN GREEN!!! 

This could have been the best game that I" have ever seen my self. And I" couldn't be more proud of our Tigers..! One hell of a game an a historic run for the school. Will be back next year..!🐅🏈

Miller is a great player, but I thought the Tech kid had very good coverage on him much of the night...Miller's first TD I think he did have a step on him, but Brisbane led him perfectly to let Miller go get it w/the step advantage...
That 2nd TD was outstanding coverage, it was just a great throw into a tight window....I really enjoyed watching those two go at it.....two outstanding players

Win it all Silsbee. These Indians supporting you 1000%

I" seen him two hand jam it on Carter back in the fall..🤗

Congrats Silsbee on an amazing season and a great run. Hats off to you what a great basketball school. My grandfather started for Silbees basketball team in the 1943 and 1944 seasons. He would be so so proud of you guys.

“Red rover, red rover send Harris on over!”
Stay tuned to the next Lumberton game when they will unveil the hardwood version of Duck, Duck, Goose. 

Simple fix, crowd them until he gets pushed out of bounds or if someone can reach in get their hands on the ball, that way if one of our players swats the Tiger players hands then he'll be called for a foul. At any rate, as a life long Raiders fan, THIS IS BS!

Unless the other 4 players were holding hands creating an impenetrable red rover fence line. 

Couldn’t the defense just stand close enough to get a 5 second call
