At the end of the day, I will drive from Porter to Conroe and see if Jasper can slip past Bellville.

Will there be any meet and greets before, or during the game Friday? It would be good to see some of my old WOS friends.

If I remember correctly Koy went on to play for the NY Giants. The score by the way was Jasper 41-6 in spite of Jasper being an overwhelming underDog. Trivia. Jasper was a Cinderella team in 1959. Lost 4 out of first five games, then won district. I read a post a while back that Koy Sr (who I understand also played in the NFL) went into the Jasper locker room after the game and told the Jasper players something to the effect that Jasper was the toughest, hardest hitting team Bellville had played all year. The next week Jasper lost to eventual state champion Brady in a game played in Temple. Brady also had a superstar named Scot Appleton who also went on to play for Texas, and then the Houston Oilers. Incredibly by sheer chance I met Scot Appleton in San Antonio years later, long after his NFL days were over. He told me exactly the same thing, that Jasper was the hardest hitting team that they had played all year including the state championship game.

I wondered how long it would take someone to mention Ernie Koy, Jr. I posted this over on the Downlow several days ago and amazingly no one from Bellville even responded about Koy.: Originally Posted by j_dog Hey, where's the interest in this thread?

Joe Ed Lynn starred for Bellville at RB in that game, and went on to star for Sam Houston State. Anyone remember the name of Bellville's other running back?

Any word (or opinion) on where and when the game will be played?

2 Jasper turnovers. Center ahead 14-6. Good way to lose....

???

Go Center. Set up something to play for!

He's still fun to listen to! And he doesn't trash talk the other team.

AP finally gives Jasper a bit of recognition!

And I will grow a beard!

I agree, IF ............. you could have a good chance to win. On the other hand, Jasper has been working on the passing game. Especially last night. But Center does stand a good chance of making it a game. Might even win.

Dern! I was pulling for you.

Resting him!

Sounds like a little war.

They are running the clock now, closest things to the ten run rule there is in football...............

Go Bellville!

Halftime

Jasper up 43-0, still in second qtr Jasper is trying out their passing game, and spreading the ball around.

Jasper up 36-0

Wet field at Huntington?

True. The absolute insane thing is that he only had 20 carries against WOS when he played the entire game.

Jasper worked on the passing game last night. Probably will this next game also.

Same old song. WOS always (almost always) finds a way to win. Congrats!

Shepherd FG, 7-3
