[quote name="APanthers" post="934999" timestamp="1292623567"] Anyone know a link for video [/quote] I'm still searching

It says on the website that there is a webcast, but I can't find it.....Granted, I am an idiot when it comes to computers.  Any help would be appreciated!

[/quote] look at those guys....they don't look happy about modeling those unies...lol ;D :D [/quote] Great post...made me laugh, especially when I noticed their posture!  Greatness!

I don't see either team or community making any excuses....Both fan bases are great and rabid and that should make for an incredible atmosphere today.  Good luck to both teams and enjoy the experience!

Thanks Grad, I really appreciate it

[/quote] I don't have a problem, I just asked a simple question.  Relax!

Does anyone know if the games can be watched online?  I won't be anywhere near a TV the next 2 days.

Gray will get his yards....the kid is a beast!  How is LM's RB doing?  I heard he was banged up a little.

[quote name="TruffulaDawg" post="933048" timestamp="1292353485"] Hello SETX... I am a loyal, but informed and objective Carthage "Homer"... Just wanted to say good luck and congratulations to both teams this week... I also wanted to say that it is ridiculous to believe that either team will underestimate the other in the State Championship game... Neither team has gotten this far by underestimating their opponents... It is an awesome experience to get to support your team in this endeavor, no matter how many times your team may or may not have made it before... Only 3 years ago, we had only been to the big show once, and came up short... We know that there is a HUGE target on our backs, and I'm sure Coach Surratt and Company are fully aware of that... From the sound of it, it's gonna be a nail-biter, just as it should be... A powerhouse Coldspring running game vs. a strategically balanced offense from Carthage... Defense will be the name of the game... I'm not gonna spout stats or tout ignorant opinions without having seen your team develop over the season... And speaking of which, That is exactly what has happened to Carthage this year... We were supposed to be in a rebuilding year, and weren't supposed to even be here, AND that is exactly what we've done... This Carthage team, more than any other that I've ever seen, has developed and matured as the season came along... And as to the 2 losses earlier in the season, they were the best thing that could've happened for this team... IMO, it helped kickstart the development of these guys... I can't substantiate the claims that we were missing 9 starters... (I believe that to be incorrect)... We were down our D-1 middle linebacker,  our very talented safety/ receiver was out, and our qb was injured and didn't tell the coaches... AND we got beat... Those nights, Nac and Chapel Hill were better than us... Thankfully, we are as healthy as we can be after having played 15 games in a season... Good Luck to both teams and their families and fans... I expect both teams to leave it all on the field... As far as a prediction, I obviously have to go with my DAWGS!!! [/quote] Probably the best "1st post" from any member since I've been hanging around the board.  Great Post!

I give the edge to Carthage off experience alone....There's a lot of pressure with playing for the title and possibly in front of over 20,000 people.  The lights seem to get brighter, the field gets longer, and the goal post closer together. Like I said, good luck......

All I can say is.....WOW!

[/quote]Better than Nance (Trinity) or Luna (SLC) or Da'Bryan Blanton (Forney)? [/quote] Yes, better than all three of them.... Nance was probably the closest to him Luna was great, but he had such a great team around him that teams couldn't focus on him Blanton is still the fastest football player that I've ever seen...unreal speed!

Pulling 100% for Aledo.....

Scooter:  How dare you pick against someone's team!  People take stuff so serious it's almost comical.  Congrats to Coldspring for reaching the final....should be a great game and may the best team win! 

There's a reason Aledo is undefeated and the defending champ...They are loaded with talent and they don't make many mistakes.  The bad thing is that all of their top playmakers are just juniors....well, good for them, but bad for everyone else! Will be a great game!

59 Yard TD pass for Aledo Aledo 14 Poteet 7 1:25 2nd Qtr

Poteet's QB just went out with a knee injury....Hope he gets a chance to come back in after the half.

Aledo 7 Poteet 7 2:22 2nd Qtr [Hidden Content]

Does the Carthage RB have over 150 yards already?

Looks like a shootout could happen tonight

Go to the Canadian-Mart game....
