Don't agree with this simply because we started slow last year as well. These early non district games are for fixing mistakes and everyone has only played 3 games at the most. Franklin brought back 5/5 last season and 6/6 this season so they weren't to young last season with less experience as you claim. All I'm going to say is I wouldn't wanna play us week 5.

What makes you think they are not what they were based off week 1-3....

And it's work 35 straight times... all I used to hear about was how Franklin would never win state just running the ball. 3 straight trips to Dallas 4 in the last 8 years with 2 state titles and only 8 yes 8 passing yards in the last 2 championship games. If it's not broke don't fix it. We may lose this game to a team a class up who imo should still be in the top 10. But its only gonna make us better in the long run. These seniors have played some really good ball clubs over the years from Canadian, Gunter, Lorena, Brock, Columbus ect. They will not back down from a challenge or lay down for anyone. I expect this to be another great game at Hedrick field.

Didn't Franklin score a passing td against Woodville. I believe they had over 100 yards passing against Woodville.

As of right now between a 40% and 60% chance of rain friday.

Last home loss 9/11/2020 with half the team out with covid. Both teams are full of studs. I believe it will be a good game and low scoring. I will always take my lions and coaching staff in big games.

This will be a big game and I expect to see the stands packed

Mexia was still a playoff team last season. And we didn't hurt ourselves with fumbles or bad snaps

They very well could. It's hard to win in Franklin. Last loss in Franklin was in 2020 with half the team out with covid.

Franklin had 6 total fumbles and 4 lost fumbles. So yes the scores was close between Franklin and Woodville. Can't really read in to first game of the the season. Franklin had 0 turnovers the next game while Woodville seemed to turn it over to Newton. Woodville played pretty much a perfect game against Franklin and still lost while having around 3 turnovers against Newton. If Woodville played Newton as well as they did against Franklin then they would have beat Newton imo. Had Franklin not turned it over 4 times it could have very well been a 21 point game. Franklin had almost 600 yards of offense with pretty much a new O-line playing their first varsity game. But what if's don't matter and these games are in the past. I don't think people realize how bad Franklin played week 1 and still won. It was the worst game they have played in the past 4 years hands down. I'm not saying Woodville is a bad team because they aren't but I have always heard you see what a team is made of from week 1 to week 2 in improvement. Good Luck to the SETX teams down the road. Look forward to Diboll and Jasper the next 2 weeks. I guess we will see how much we have improved here soon. Diboll always plays against Franklin well. And Jasper seems to be a power house.

Franklin cleaned up a lot amd get win 70-6 over Mexia Liberty Hill 82 Hutto 80... yes this is the real score

I do think Woodville is a good team but I also think Franklin kept Woodville in the game with self inflected plays. Did Woodville force some turnovers... yes but they didn't need any help from Franklin either who was making big mistakes left and right. Maybe we will meet up again down the road when both are better and more polished. After all this was only week 1 with lots of football left. Both will learn and get better from this game.

You are correct it was a forced turnover but it was knocked to the ground and picked up for the return. He did not catch it so I called it a scoop and score. No matter how we put it. way to many turnovers kept life and Woodville in the game. Franklin has a target on their backs and we will get the best from everyone. I'm also willing to bet that everyone plays their best game of the season against us.

2 scoop and 2 scores. One was fumbled on the reverse (unforced) and returned for a td and the other was batted backwards that was also a scoop score. I believe we had 5 fumbles 4 ended up turning into points for Woodville. I'm going to go back and rewatch the game if possible
