Mustangs pickup the 1st down. 1st and goal @ HD 10.

4th and 5 Mustangs on HD 30. That QB can go!

2nd and 13 BV @ HD 41 yard line. End of 1st

Burkeville moving the ball well. Transfers making some plays!

Aguirre with a 12 yard TD run. Victorian punched in the 2 point conversion. Bobcats - 8 Mustangs - 0 4:18 in first

Who would’ve thought before the season or even a month ago this game is probably to see who squeaks into the playoffs as the 4th seed and who stays home

I’ve got a feeling this is going to be a pretty darn good game. I’m picking the Panthers in a mild upset

MBG hates to have to pick HD lol. Shoulda went with BV cause HD plays high island and Sabine pass next and you’ve gotta pick em in those games lol

HD - 42 BV - 14

And don’t reply until you get out of 3rd period Art class. Don’t need to lose any members of the Rebel marching band due to grades....

A couple kids at this level can definitely make a difference. I know HD won’t be taking BV lightly, especially if they have some new transfers.

Lmao i dont Know anyone not from evadale (and most of their folks too) that thought Evadale should have won that game. It was a pure fluke that it was so close. If Evadale and HD played 10 times this year, HD wins 10 of them. No questions asked. And the Rebels will not beat DV, much less by 13. #1 thru #3 seed in our district doesn’t really matter. LL, WS, and Cushing will all be favored vs D12. And whoever gets the #4 seed is in a world of hurt playing Tenaha. There’s a good chance Cushing beats Lovelady to create a three way tie for 2nd in district 11. That will not happen in our district. DV rolls HD is gonna focus on BV since they may have some new weapons that make them better. Evadale should do the same after they take their spanking from the Pirates.

After seeing these two in back to back weeks i don’t see it being real close. It’s a rivalry game so that can always change how things go. My prediction: DV Pirates - 32 Evadale Rebs - 14

Unfortunately that’ll be Burkville..... unless they beat Evadale which is a possibility

I’m not forgetting the fumble y’all had at the 5..... after y’all recovered an unforced error fumble we had at our own 26. So y’all drove a little over 20 yards to be in that position. Evadale lost 3 fumbles and like I said, two of them were forced fumbles, one on a strip sack and one when the QB was running for his life in the early 4th quarter. I saw An unofficial final yardage total of 123 yards for Evadale.... and pretty sure 90 came on one play. I’m not sure if that was legitimate but the Rebels didn’t do anything in the second half. HD dominated 90% of the game. And the 2 jacked up interceptions were great plays made by a freshman. Luckily for the Rebs he couldn’t tip toe the sidelines or he would have taken that one to the house. And I guess he’s one of those unimpressive players since he only caught one 50 yard TD, only had 2 interceptions and only ran over 2 Rebels on the first TD run he had. Or maybe it was Aguirre who had 3 sacks, 7 tackles for loss and 100+ yards rushing. It was probably Broussard who finished with only 96 yards rushing.... on 4 carries in the second half. The line was controlled by Evadale, I’ll give them that. Just like DV did. The only difference was DV has a couple pretty good backs that took advantage of that and they dominated time of possession. I spoke to a couple ppl with no dog in the fight as well that see it the same as me. The score could have and should have been much worse. And for anyone to say Evadale should have won that game.... they’ve been sniffing the paper mill fumes wayyyy too long. Rival game or not, Deweyville is going to destroy Evadale and it’ll be over by halftime if they don’t make boneheaded plays and mistakes.

I’m not sure how many of the Evadale kids were out due to covid protocols but the rest of this post is completely off. First it wasn’t a blown coverage, it was Victorian outrunning the free safety in one on one coverage. The touchdown Broussard had was on a jet sweep where he made about 6 kids miss. They had outside contain but he cut back and made a play and outran everyone. Both plays are on HD’s max preps page if you’d like to watch them. Evadale scored a 90 yard TD on some crazy Statue of Liberty type play on 3rd and 23. If Broussard would have been at safety that wouldn’t have gone for a score I’m almost certain. Once Broussard was in on defense, Evadale really couldn’t move the ball, especially through the air. As far as the turnovers, Evadale did have several QB to center exchange issues but they recovered 3 or 4 of them and HD recovered one. The other two fumbles were on a QB strip sack and when the QB was scrambling around late and was stripped again. Victorian had two interceptions and both were just great plays by a kid in position to make a play. HD had two or three fumbles that the Rebels recovered as well. And Broussard had 4 carries on the night and one was when he took off from punter position and came up a yard short. His last carry in the 3rd quarter was the 81 yard TD. HD ran full back dive and QB sneak all three possessions they had in the 4th quarter until victory formation for the last couple plays. If I’m being realistic it probably would have been 32 - 12 HD at a minimum. If Broussard isn’t serving a first half suspension due to last week’s ejection and they don’t kill the clock for 12 min, realistically it’s more like 42-8. That’s taking the long fluke score away and giving HD one more score like he did in the 3rd being out there. Evadale was shutout in the second half and didn’t really come close to scoring despite some great field position. HD didn’t really play very good (played much better against DV) and it really still wasn’t that close. Maybe your nephew is a big Rebel fan because it doesn’t seem like a very unbiased review he passed on to you.

If this is from the UIL rule book then there’s no rule violation being committed regardless of interpretation. The periods are 12 min long, intermission (halftime) is meets this requirement, a min between first/second and third/fourth qtrs and no period ends on a non dead ball. It says nothing about the 12 min period following the timing rules of NCAA or NFL football..... or a flat out count down from 12:00 to 0:00. A “running clock” is actually more within these rules than shortening a period/quarter length (makes mention below varsity level which is why you often see 10/8 min quarters for JV/JH games) at the varsity level (which I’ve never seen done) and adhering to standard clock/timing protocols. Bottom line if both coaches and officials agree to “run the clock” there’s no potential to violate UIL rules or present an opportunity for investigation, violation or protest in the future.

Wow. High Island showed up to play today. Didn’t think this one would be this close.

I agree. Ran that lineup first series late in 3rd quarter and scored on big play on first snap. Next series in the 4th we fumble on 2nd down on bad pitch. Then the last two series with them both in neither touched the ball with only FB up the middle and QB sneak to run out the clock. Definitely creates a different dynamic with #2 and #3 both on the field together. Won’t see it again much until the playoffs with SP, HI and BV left on the schedule.

Didn’t listen/see the game but saw a final of 44-34 Lovelady reported

Too conservative for me but a win is a win. Rebels - 14 Bobcats - 24 Final Congrats to the Bobcats and good game Evadale. Good luck on the rest of the season Rebels.

Rebel QB hit snd fumbles. Broussard recovers. Bobcats ball 3min go go now

Jeez this play calling. HD playing ball control way too early. Victorian and Broussard never touch the ball on an 8 play drive. Rebels take over on my own 25

Aguirre with a 54 yard run down to the one but downfield hold called.

Victorian with his 2nd interception of the game. Bobcats take over on own 45. 9:18 to go.
