  1. BC will control the ball. I think they take this game. I watched their scrimmage against WO and these guys are not a pushover. Watched the Newton game also and BC will grind out first down yardage and kill the clock. If you can force BC out of their rythem and make them play catchup then you have a chance.

  2. I am divided about AT&T being the location for the State games.I think it's a great experience for the young men and women.I may be old fashioned but think it causes a great break in team rythem. The scheduling for the small schools instantly changes. A short week for prep and a Thursday game instead of the usual Fri. The distance to travel for the team and fans along with the cost. Most working Moms and Dad's and fans have a juggling act to do to make a Thurs at 5:00 pm game. I think the giant atmosphere takes the fan to team connection away. Most people in our small towns find it difficult to get to the destination and consume the cost of the trip. Bottle of water 5.00 inside AT&T lol.Bag of popcorn 10.00. A family has to take a loan out to make all this happen.I guess I'm old fashion but I like the old way of doing it where the two teams meet in a nutral site and settle it.
  3. Got them through district, bi-district, area, regionals, semi-finals, and lost the championship to a team that did not throw a single time.

    Waskom didn't need to pass.. Newton did. When your down 3 scores. Any team needs a passing game no matter how good your running game is.I'm not gonna try to explain that to you. If you want to disbelieve fine with me. Most anyone on this site will tell you the same thing. Newtons play caller must feel the same as you.
    Look at Yoe. They do both and Newton has yet to beat them since 74. I know we dont play them in this division now.
  4. ???? The stat I saw on Newton passing didn't exactly line up with this statement. 30 something completions of 80 something attempts for 300ish yards....

    I'm not talking about an all out passing attack. When your down 3tds you need to pass some not run the clock out running. A pass mixed with the run would have made Newton deadly. I have watched them many years and passing is a unknown. Running every down might get you thru district but when you step onto the big stage you better have some sort of passing game in your game plan.
  5. I guess this will be the last big gathering on the football forum before our Teams play their Final Championship round.I'm sure we will discuss the outcome of them and the football part slows down. Before it does I have enjoyed a great football season with all you great guys and reading the input from each one. I Thank all the administration for all the time and effort to bring each weeks discussions about.Hats off to all our area teams. Hope to see some of you in Arlington to help cheer our local teams to a State Championship..
  6. Spoke with a Corrigan player after the Franklin game and he said Rogers has a real good running back and one good defensive player that stands out from the others.I think it's another game where Rogers hasn't played a tough schedule besides Corrigan that they beat with Corrigans backs out the first qt. Newton without turnovers takes this one and moves on.
