    If you look at state and national rankings on maxpreps, it's pretty close.

    Robinson - #21 in all of Texas; #202 nationally. 

    Jasper - #20 in all of Texas; #195 nationally. 

    I know the Texas rankings are regardless of classification, so I'm assuming it's the same nationally. I don't know how they get their numbers, but to be in the top 5% in the country means both teams are very, very good. I'll take Jasper in 3 games. 

    Not knocking either of our teams, but I don’t put much stock in MaxPreps when it comes to baseball. They have Godley ranked #1 in Texas, all classifications.  I think we all know that ain’t even close to being right, Godley over Austin Westlake & SA Reagan, seriously?

    Regardless, both of our teams are pretty good, otherwise they wouldn’t have made it this far.  Safe travels to all and here’s hoping for good games....,play ball & Go Rockets!!

    Wish i had an argument here but I know nothing about Salado. I do know , for whatever reason, Huffman started hitting the baseball and got hot at the right time. I do know Huffman's defense is their strength! Early in the season, Huffman played in some bigger 5A/6A tourneys so record is not padded! Going to enjoy the ride as long as it lasts and look forward to advancing further than Huffman has ever gone!

     

    Just my guess, I'm not an expert.  Salado has been very solid the past several years.  I just looked at Huffman's schedule, averaging 10 runs per game in the playoffs, allowed 9 runs over 8 games; that's pretty good.  Salado averaging about 7 runs per game in the playoffs, allowed 18 runs over 6 games.  I'm very familiar with two of Salado's playoff opponents China Spring and Lorena, both solid programs.

    LCM and Hudson are also solid programs that Huffman has beaten; looks like it's gonna be a good series.  What kind of pitching depth does Huffman have?  I know Salado's #1 is pretty dang good, both him and #2 are seniors.

    It's just Robinson, we're not part of the WISD (thank God!)

    Should be a good series, I've been keeping up with Jasper all season and they're record is impressive and they are on a hot streak which is always dangerous.

    I hope to make it to the games, they should be close ones.

    Go Rockets!!

    Weird stuff that in a matter of 10 days, they shook up their top ten from this:

    January 13, 2018 poll

    1. Robinson
    2. Godley
    3. Argyle
    4. Sinton
    5. Bridge City
    6. Abilene Wylie
    7. Sweeny
    8. Boerne
    9. Pleasant Grove
    10. Robstown

    However, the only thing I really care about is how they finish............gotta a long row to hoe from now to June.

    UNKNOWN AT THE TIME I ORIGINALLY POSTED IS THAT THESE ARE TWO DIFFERENT POLLS..........the first is THSB and the second is the THSBCA, subtle but distinct difference

    This post is in response to GUNGHO's post (I couldn't get the quote feature to work):

     

    I know this is irrelevant but wasn't it Robinson last year that had a QB setting the world on fire with his passing.We all know how that turned out for them.Salado completed some passes on us because we weren't really defending the pass.After coach made the adjustment they were ineffective with the pass.I am concerned about our offense so we can't get in a shoot out with Wimberly, so if we advance it will be on the defense once again. I'm sure they wouldn't mind a little help though.lol

     

    Alas, if we'd only had a defense last year I think it would have been a much better game.  Putting 14 on that 2016 defense was pretty good though.  We sorta got y'all back in the Spring on the diamond, maybe we'll both advance far enough in the Spring and meet up again.  Safe travels to you all for the upcoming game.
