Gilmer got beat As you know Saturday. So how about Carthage

They may not post so much on the Carthage thread. I mean, even I have to say that I don't know of anyone that definitively has a better coach that Carthage in the state of Texas. He's made his team do the unthinkable, more than once, even when over-matched with talent.  

But to add to that, you did say 4ADII, and Carthage is DI.

Really.   My thread is reaching historic proportions only because of the WOS haters in your neck of the woods. 

Lol in case you have noticed, we don't like ANYONE saying something along the lines of "nobody can compete with (insert team name here)." Just ask the Gilmer faithful. Or really, start a post just like the one you started, just insert Gilmer's name where you had WOS's and see what happens lol.

Thank God WOS might have their own poster that should leave well enough alone.

God knows we do.

Give them their own padded thread and throw away the key.

Jmo

Lol I'm having a real hard time telling Chukslegacy and WOS36 apart. I'm not convinced they're not the same person.

Nice post and nobody here, and I say NOBODY mentions PNG or Newton's Program legitimacy when it comes to Silsbee's two losses.

Gets lost in all the twitter/facebook BS.

I like what I'm seeing and hope we can stay the course here and build something that ten years from now people will say, "That's where the change was made".

I mean we could mention those, but then we'd have to point out that Newton is 3AD2, then we'd have to point out that the 1 win Silsbee has it against a Jasper team that I wouldn't exactly call an impressive 4AD2 team.

That being said, good luck to you guys! You're going to need it!

ATL won a state title last decade. 

 

Rabbits > Injuns

In one of the most dominant performances in Texas state championship history I may add . We're getting back into winning shape, and have a pretty good team this year. Just gotta find our stride.

The Rabbits have Buckeyes and Bobcats and Eagles to worry about long before they see the hoof of a Mustang.

Yea well you have to worry about.... what other good teams are in south Texas again?

Mustangs will stomp a rabbit quick

That's what the Leopards thought too.

You brought friends over to the board!

 

We like Mustangs!

I like Rabbits 

I got Wharton. Just something telling me after that week 1 loss to Sealy, they finally got it back on track. That was a close loss to a very good El Campo team I may add.

No not really. Just explaining why people on smoaky are replying to him.

I'm just talking about the thread in general lol. 

Navasota is without their head coach. If anyone doubted that Fedora had that program on the map, they don't now.

So it begins on SETX too. Chuk is this your other name?

No offense HellRazor but you dang near mirrored my original comments about Gilmer with a few additions! At the end of the day no offense was meant but you confirmed what I originally stated! Your first showing on defense did not portray that of a team ready for Gilmer! I also stated that you may be ready by then and you said the same! Atlanta is a very talented program! I had them in my top 6 in preseason and still do! This is an early season assessment and will change as the year progresses! Good luck to you sir and those Rabbits! I only wish the best for all the young men that play the game!

Thank you sir. We will see how it pans out. Hopefully they get everything ironed out and ready for district.

Not from Gilmer just giving my opinion of their strengths and weaknesses. I have watched them all Summer at 7on 7 and that is why they look so good right now but they have not been challenged like Carthage will. This game will be a thriller but i still feel that they are good enough to win their district. If this upsets you then I apologize but it is only my opinion. Gilmer is ok right now and has a long season ahead. I feel as if they are running the score up to prove themselves or achieve some level of validation and I am not a fan of that type of play. If you look at their videos you will see what I am referring to. If you are from Atlanta, then there is no disrespect but your game against Henderson did not leave me with the gut feeling that you were ready t face Gilmers passing attack. Maybe by then you will be but for now the tape does not show your defense credible. The entire game is on Youtube as well vs Henderson and to those who are curious you can view it for youselves and voice your opinion. All in all, I think they have great team speed and can score quickly but Gilmers defense will be exposed Saturday night. I will be there with bells on. 

Oh I am sure that we're not ready to face Gilmer right now. You didn't say that Gilmer was good enough to win their district, you said they would win their district. After a 13 year drought to Gilmer, including losing in the Qtr. Finals to them 2 straight years, no opponent can possibly know what Gilmer is capable of more than I. I have also watched Gilmer this season, and I am aware of what their passing game looks like, which is not far from the way it looks every year, consisting of a heavy dose of screens. 

With that being said, Atlanta does need to improve. The Henderson was a very bad showing on several levels, mainly in special teams and offensive line. Do they have the talent to hang with Gilmer? Yes, most definitely. I have to trust that the coaches can get this team in the shape they need to be in, as they did last year when we entered the playoffs with a (6-4) record. 

So I wouldn't give Gilmer the trophy just yet. They may very well win it, but I won't sell my Rabbits out over the blowing the first game of pre-district. I think they are well equipped with enough talent to take on whomever they meet. 

WO-S by a lot. But I do think Silsbee will score.

Overall they will defeat their district and first round opponents because the region is weak this year!

Looks like it to me.

Gilmer is averaging about 60 points per outing and they have a strong resemblance to the playbook of 2014 under Jeff Traylor. They have a new Qb that's short but has a quick release and knows where his receivers will be due to many repetitions during the Summer involving 7on 7 play. They use Screen plays but love to throw the deep ball which has earned them many points! Speed and Repetition is their forte but their Achilles heel is their defense! They lack size on their Defensive line and even though they send the house and try to use their speed to shut down the pass play they leave themselves open for Counters and Draw plays! Not sure in the strength of their secondary but they have been exposed many times in both the running and passing game so they definitely are vulnerable! Overall they will defeat their district and first round opponents because the region is weak this year! I believe that in order to beat them it will take a punch in the jaw, that won't quit and they will fold! Sorry for so much info but it's an honest opinion! 

Mighty tall claims to only be 3 games deep in a season with only 1 slightly impressive win against a team that's been exposed more than once for having a weak passing defense. We will see how this plays out. 

I'm taking Carthage in this game. I haven't seen Carthage this year, but I have seen Gilmer once. I just think that Carthage's style of football and their defense will be the decider in this game. We will see!
