I'm here and ready for some football.  The Oilers look energetic & fired up.

So far, after 58 votes: West Hardin - 64% West Sabine - 36%

Ok, ok my Oilers took a major butt whoopin' from Lovelady last week, but I promise you all one thing.  That was not the West Hardin I'm used to watching this year, I'm not saying that we would have won even if we played perfect.  Lovelady has a really good team and congrats to them.  Also, I'd like to say Thank You to the Lions for bringing my Oilers back down to earth and get back to hard nose playing. Since I don't see anyone stopping Lovelady from another District Title, this game between the Oilers & Tigers could be for second place in district. I've gotten word that yesterdays practice went very well and the Oilers are getting their focus & discipline back together.  No way Coach Henry lets them boys just roll over and play dead for the rest of the season.  If we get back a few of injured players and the Oilers work hard in practice, I feel bad for West Sabine this Friday in Saratoga. I'm not making a prediction just yet, I'll make one Thursday or Friday before the game.  Lets here yours though!

Well, the question now becomes... Does West Hardin come back to playing "TEAM" football or is that it, fall apart once and their done? If the Prima Donna attitudes still exist next week against West Sabine, then expect another blowout.  If they rebound and learn from their mistakes at Lovelady, then the skies the limit. We'll see Friday night in Saratoga.

Lovelady didn't really play smash mouth football, they were more finesse!  The Oilers had numerous fumbles, horrible penalties - some warrented & some very bogus, dropped passes, missed blocks, we couldn't tackle anyone & our own players were fighting & arguing with themselves.  It almost looked like they were deflated after LL's 3rd TD.  I've talked about how the Oilers were playing like a TEAM this season; tonight the Prima Donnas came out.  They either weren't getting the ball or a missed tackle wasn't their fault & BLAH BLAH BLAH!  It was probably the saddest day in my Oiler history as a fan to watch! How do you expect to win a game when first you don't tackle, secondly you give the Lions the ball on the West Hardin side of the field probably 7 out of the 10+ TD's they had??? I'll always be one of the Oilers biggest supporters, but tonight I AM ASHAMED to have wittnessed that game! Congrats to the Lions players & coaches, good luck the rest of the way out. Also, to answer Pinelandflash's question, #28 looked fantastic.  He wasn't as fast as I thought he'd be, but he was very elusive.  He literally made some of our defenders look stupid out there.  #22 is someone else to watch, he's fast.  #5 is a dual threat player & fast. Final note, we did sustain some injuries to key players, hopefully their minor and will be back for West Sabine coming up.

Final score WH - 24 Ll - 74 Worst game by the Oilers I've ever in my life.  Just flat out gave up, PERIOD!!!!!!!!

I'll update final, but this is ridiculous.

#11 10 yd td run Wh - 12 Ll - 67 2:47 in 3rd. We can't even stop their backups.  Pitiful.

#28 14 yd td run WH - 12 Ll - 60 7:39 in 3rd

[quote name="H-D BOBCAT 55" post="1076295" timestamp="1318038771"] I personally know #55 for Lovelady, he is getting looks from alot of colleges. 6'3 250lb. [/quote] He's huge compared to us.

By far the worst football I've seen from the Oilers this season.  Fumbles, missed tackles, dropped passes & missed blocks. Lovelady is playing perfect ball, very elusive players.  We look like we're wearing concrete shoes.
