This is true....and it hurts.

Legit good predictions. good job

I am not a dayton guy but a good friend at work is and she has made the same comment. Church connection was big reason for the hire. She had a son play for Dayton and is kinda in the know over there. Doesn't mean he won't do a good job. Just pretty weird to hear the same thing in two unrelated places.

Their guards are big but a little lazy. that feeds into the 2 back formation you speak of. QB has good A-gap protection that gives him a better mesh when they run the option off of it. The goal is getting to the edge with speed. This will be a test for our rovers to take on blocks and push to the sideline. I don't have the defensive scheme for Crosby but I would rather force their RB to challenge my corner coming up than a slower LB. If the Rovers box and force the RB to cut, the RB has the advantage against a slower LB corps. We don't really have plodding LB 's so it is less of an issue and 30 is going to punish a RB once he gets there. Will be interesting to see how FB tests this in the 1st quarter. It may be successful but their RB's will pay the iron price. Shammah should force to the sideline and 17 is playing better. We had the same problem (it seemed, i wasn't on the sidelines) with RP. They played disciplined and forced our speed to the sideline. It seemed every running play was run out of bounds for little or no gain. (I was screaming "GIVE THE BALL TO MCGEE!!").

You are right about that. I think the talk was very cordial but the everyday Crosby fan felt Ridge Point was going to be a win. Crosby had to do more than show up but it was a win. That was wrong. I am more cynical this year. The only time I felt like Crosby had a sure thing all year was against Caney Creek. (I missed the Dayton and Splendora game for work). Crosby has one or two bad turnovers and some penalties, they lose. There was some missed calls on Crosby in the Vidor game that would have changed the game. Maybe once 21 is fully in the game plan and 88 doesn't have penalties against him (both great kids from great families), Crosby can walk away from teams. Just haven't seen it that much. A dominant win here sets up nicely for a tough game in the next round (we can look ahead because we are just fans you know). I want to see Brenham next because their fans are mouthy. Crosby fans too but feisty fans are fun.

I think Crosby underestimated RP. Looking back, that was not good. I think the current staff is not underestimating anybody. The coaches and team have been solely making decisions and driving for a deep playoff run. I can assure you, they are focused on beating Marshall and not looking past them. The decision to play 2 tough out of district games, not putting a lot of different stuff on film, decisions to hold out kids longer than normal after injury, a whole lot of play it safe and get on the bus 2nd halves. Do the things now to help in the playoffs later. There is a ton of the offensive playbook that is not being shown. #21 can run, he is close to 100% if not there. But they only put him in space one time, and he scored. Then they pulled him. How many times have they thrown to the RB out of the backfield? Now, I don't agree with all those decisions but I understand the why.

The whistle is a signal to finish blocks. Hear the whistle, narrow your stance, bench press the defender, run your feet. Doesn't work perfect every time but you get defenders on their back or they get mad and take a shot and you get your flag. I loved Vidor offense.

He is not getting healthier. Every game when he goes down, he tweaks that ankle. It is heartbreaking because he has been working up to this. It would be fun to see him line up at WR to start the game and watch NC to see if they adjust.

If the defense shows up like it did Friday, Crosby can win. Offense has to take what is there. I love Mannie. I really do. I hate the way his ankle has played out this year. But I think every team has figured out, he isn't going to run the ball. They are loading up on the RB and catching him when he scrambles. He is not a dual threat right now and the sophomore is. #7 isn't going to set the world on fire but he can do the job when the defense plays like they can. With Sqwrl on the field, good things could happen.

I think I see it. If Georgetown loses to Connally, that puts Georgetown outside looking in. Bumps Rouse in as Div 1 #2 seed. Is that correct?

current standings with attendance (2 high to Div 1, 2 low to Div 2). I am not as smart as the rest of you guys. The only way CP goes Div2 is if Rouse gets in? If Hutto and Rouse win out and Hutto did beat Rouse, what else is in play here? 1. Cedar Park - 1949 2. Connally - 1977 3. Georgetown - 1876 4. Hutto - 1775 5. Rouse - 2006 6. Elgin - 1305 Others....

Rouse beat Elgin. Hutto lost to CP. Rouse has to get in to put CP into Div 2. Hutto and Rouse should both win this week and that leaves them with same records. Does it then go to Head to head?

And how locked in is Cedar Park to D1?
