I think you are taking me the wrong way. I also know how the scrimmage started and how it ended as I was there on the Longview side. The first team starters were Teeing off on each other...those two schools always go at each other. My simple point of bringing it up was that normally Texas High can't match Longview across the board with team speed but they looked better this year than I have seen them ever matching up. It was interesting and surprising to see. Again, my point was they looked better from a talent and skill perspective as a whole than they have in the last 10-15 years...means no more and no less...
Kingwolf got this exactly right. No one wins or loses a scrimmage. What can be reasonably determined is whether one team would clearly dominate the other if they were to play a real game, or whether that game would likely be a competitive game. In prior years, when Texas High and Longview scrimmaged it was clear that Longview would dominate the Tigers in a real game. This year, many came away with the impression that Texas High had a talent/skill level that would allow them to compete. As Kingwolf said "...means no more and no less...".
