Maybe one of these days Silsbee will be good enough to be spoken in the same breath as Bridge City?

Not for sure what years ago you are referring to, I played in the 70's, and we had full pad 2 a days, for 2 weeks before school started. And guess what , we had some 100 degree days here in Central Texas. Coaches didnt believe in water breaks either back then. lol

Was told, Tigers had a good week of practice, lots of full pads and contact, even up to yesterday. SETX tough.
Never know what highschool kids are gonna do, and Birds could win, but if Tigers clicking, should take this one.

QB has done a good job of making his read and getting rid of the ball, probably dont realize, but Tigers oline gave up the first QB sack for the season Friday night. Thats one in 13 games.  Very good for an Oline that has, 175lb, 175lbs,175lbs, 235,and 250lbs guys, and couple play both ways. One Sr, and 4 others that  either started or played a lot as Soph. last year. They will have one slot to fill next year, but have some very large kids coming up from the 8th and 9th grade to pick from. 

Torching, would have been , if coach had thrown the ball in the second half, as all 11 defenders  were on the line of scrimmage. Tigers kept the ball for over 5 min , twice just running the ball. Keep the clock moving so everybody couuld go home and get dry.lol

Might be noted that Miller had 103 plus fever thurs, no fever Game day , but kinda woozy I would imagine.

JMO, The thing that separated WOS from the rest of the 409, was Cornell's continuation of the overall attitude and discipline, in the program. The kids bought into it, which was in my opinion made for a very special place. His defensive philosophy and the talent to go with it was dominating.  He is gone, and all that with it, WOS will have talent, and they will have good years and bad now, just like everybody else. Booking tickets for Dallas every year, with no second thoughts is over, done with, your just another SETX team.

game wont be close if the weather is good. Last two games Youve watched a spread passing team having to run the ball, to win.

Afraid this game is gonna b closer than people might think, Columbia will try and shorten the game with wing T, and The Tigers are physically beat up from the tough Jasper game. Hopefully they can be back full strength in two weeks for the rematch with WOS. lol

Your right that might be a barn burner, but Cuero is really untested at this point. There coming out of a terrible district. Giddings, La Grange, Caldwell , not what they used to be at all.

Well, scores dont always tell the story. They were very much in the Silsbee game till MIller comes out of the ambulance and turns into Superman. And they were one pass away from beating HF.  WOS is loaded with athletes that usually play extremely hard. If they come out on the field expecting to win, they will.  Dont get me wrong, I would like to see them exit this Tourn, cause if they beat Bellville, they may be unstoppable.

Bulldogs Def is good enough to beat anybody, and if they keep improving on Offense, they will go a ways. I think Sealy runs into a brick wall here. JMO

People dont realize what they had ,till its gone. Change is not always good, unless it's dirty underwear. lol

Tigers will come in focused and take care of business, but dont see them scoring 65, Liberty will be fired up, playing the Tigers.  Something tells me late in the game , this time of the season, Tiger coach will start getting starters out, to avoid injury. For example, late in the game against HJ, Cartwright got banged up returning a kick, probably miss a game or two.
The District Championship still goes through HF, and Jasper. 

Not to burst any Tiger Bubbles, but I wouldnt throw WOS under the bus just yet. LOL

I think u have a situation where , you have to hire a new DC and def assistants. They want to coach a Defense they are familiar and comfortable with. Just happens that the current players are struggling with playing it, and if things continue to slide down hill, the kids will start to not buy in to the change. Regardless of this weeks outcome, things will probably get better as they play the weaker teams in the district. But if and a big (if) they loose to Silsbee, and HF, gonna be a tough go? Any other school it would work out in time, but the expectations at WOS are so high, that the stress level on all involved may be too much? But, dont be shocked if all this gloom and doom talk is nought, WOS wins out in district , and goes sev rounds in the playoffs. I would consider that a successful first year for Hickman . JMO
