What is the feeling going into this game? Excited? Nervous? Confident? Worried?

That is "spin". Regardless what happens Friday night BH is on the rise. Next year looks even better. Remember some of our eternal critics had us "wanting the old coach back", "4th seed at best", and destined to get stomped by Longview in the first round by some crazy score like 49-15 or something? Then last week, Uh-Oh, BH "can't handle the weather" against Forney?  Ha! 

Now about MT I have no idea except they are 11-0 and ranked #2 in the State. They deserve to be the heavy favorite. That's OK. Actually its a good thing BH can travel in stealth mode. I like it. BH has nothing to lose, just go out play hard limit mistakes and leave it all out on the field. Go Eagles! 

 

 

I think anyone really paying attention knows Timberview is not the 2nd best team in the state. They wont make the region final. Whether it is BH or Lancaster that beats them.

I’m feeling the same way. I think they are a very athletic team that has won on just that…pure athleticism. We have seen that this year and it will take more than that to win against BH. Going to be a great game

 

If the Forney game was close then I might go Timberview but yall dominated that game. Honestly it makes me want to pick BH but I just cant decide yet.

Still more to research on Mansfield Timberview, but it looks to me that they haven’t played anybody. That 1st round against a 4 seed earned them a 33-14 victory. I think BH is going to put some defensive pressure on them that they haven’t seen. This is going to be a good game and I think BH can surprise them.

Here was my post from the 5A site,

Timberview was a district mate these past two seasons and they are tough to beat. These last two years they ended Ennis' season when they had good teams. However its fair to say Timberview has not faced a lot of adversity this year and have not been tested. Barbers Hill on the other hand has this year. Their district is good and overall it was competitive for them. Timberview is ranked higher but Barbers Hill is battle tested. Having said all that I have no clue who wins.

Yes

I think the moment was too big for them. I still think they have a solid team but they could not stack positive plays together. When you find some plays that work keep going to them. I think the QB was seeing ghost. He didnt trust his O-line and stand in the pocket. He would bail early and most of the time he would scramble it did not turn out good for him. He had -52 yards rushing or something like that and also threw a pick when he felt under pressure. They had the right idea by controlling the clock but were not aggressive enough when they should have been. You are playing Aledo in Aledo without their starting QB. You should take some risk and go for the win.

Those 2 in bold I wanna see. Especially the top one. 

Centennial played very well against Lake Belton. It will be interesting to see how that carries over against a much better opponent! To be honest I'd rather play Tascosa than Centennial again. Thats why I wasnt sad Denton Ryan lost to Red Oak. I like our district mates but its all about us now. But back to your post, I have done zero research on PSJA or Miller. I just think that Region comes down to them and CC Vets/Vela. May the best team win and they will have a legit chance against R3 this year imo.

My prediction didn't work out. Lol

You've seen plenty of 4th seeds. Honest opinion of them?

Of Shoemaker?

Good season Crosby, Lobos defense is stellar and we couldn't match them in trenches. 

I felt like Crosby was in their own way at times early on. It was 15-14 with LV mistakes and Crosby couldnt keep things in the right direction. The QB snap kept throwing the plays off. Never felt like Crosby was in any sort of groove.

I know. Getting put in Region II created a lot of long playoff trips.

They are long playoff trips but they are interesting games. Usually these types of matchups would have to be state finals but we get them early in the playoffs! I enjoy watching teams from different parts of the state play each other.

Longview will win State. 

I dont think they get bonus points for beating the mecca. But they are the favorite.

It is my job. Trying to make sure that I keep Longview fans "uplifted". 

Clearly you have not been on the East TX football site lol. Longview don't need help uplifting their team. 

Great thread but ultimately, I think the districts go 2-2 and we end in a tie! 

I liked the competitiveness from the PAM QB but he takes a lot of hits. Should be fine this game but something to keep an eye on. 

Going to watch this game online. My money is on BH to protect the home field. 

Crosby, this is coming your way!

*EDIT: Crosby yall are going to LV for this!!

Crosby might have to sell out to stop the run and that's going to open things up in the passing game. People from LV always talk about #8 but to me their most impressive player is #2, and it isn't even close. On offense I have no idea how Crosby is going to generate points.

Very good team no doubt. I am not ready to crown them the best. There are several that are incredible and have done more than this years team....and I have been watching Lobo ball since the 1980s.

What would this team need to accomplish in order for you to declare them the best?

Just telling you Crosby folks, if you have never played in Longview, your in for a Lobo experience. Everything is Lobo there. The wolf calls and the Longview fans and band on the visitor side. Your down 14 before you get off the bus.  The indoctrination is loud and long.  Few visitors ever leave Lobo Country with a victory, and if by miracle it should occur, it will be a close nail biter because Longview never goes down easy.   

My prediction is Longview 56  Crosby 13. 

Longview is better than anyone you have seen this year or last year. Mark my words.

Biggest upset in Lobo history? Considering all those factors.

Always give a respectful answer.  You should say, not a chance.  We’re going to take em behind the woodshed and get ready for round 2!

Most of the time I dont think that is necessary. We have won 26 consecutive 1st round playoff games. We are playing at home against a good 4th place playoff team. They have earned my respect.

Shoemaker by at least 1

I've done some homework on them. They are really solid for being a #4 seed. We will have to show up and compete. No easy games.
