Huntsville #7, PNG #9. MLC didn't make the top 10, nor Montgomery. BTW, what exactly is a computer ranking?

No worries, probably. Just saying that a couple or 3 of Shepherd's linemen looked pretty athletic, based on what little I've seen in the video clips. #88, if I recall right, along with the right tackle, were opening up some holes, in their loss to whoever they were playing, I can't recall now. Anyway ...

Back ~ 10 years ago when I lived in Plantation (on Cotton Bayou) 5 of the 6 neighbors on our street moved there from North Shore. But I don't doubt the Baytown angle at all. Everyone used to say that the Barber's Hill area was to be the next Katy. What I do know is that the Chambers County taxes (Mont Belvieu) were much less than the Harris County (Baytown) taxes. But also from what I hear, the Barbers Hill school taxes have really been catching up quickly these days.

WOS vs Shepherd isn't broadcast anywhere?

WOS, but their D line had better be on their toes.

That makes sense, if Huntsville wasn't ranked above Brenham the previous week. I can't recall, but no matter.

Just shooting from the hip here, but a week or so ago in 5A DII I seem to recall that Huntsville was ranked 8th or 9th. They played #1 PNG a very close game, and then defeated a ranked Montgomery team the following week. And so now they aren't ranked in the top 10?

My first guess was going to be H-F, just based on conversations with friends that have kids attending H-F.

I lived there from 2000 - 2015, and didn't really have a dog in the fight, so I didn't follow the football too closely, but I recall that BH moved up rather quickly from 3A I think, to 4A, to 5A. The head coach and other coaches and trainer, had been there a while, and always seemed just a game away from going to state. Then the HC got fired, more or less, others moved on, retired, or passed away (I knew one coach personally, who lost a hard fought battle with cancer). The area has really grown very rapidly, and I'm not sure what old traditions are still there, just looking from a distance.

Memorial in OT.

Nederland, in a score-fest.

Wow!

Sounds like great game, this one.

I've asked that same question on the PNG forum. I don't recall any replies, so I guess not.

I'm a bit surprised at this score, but ok with it. Huntsville D line still playing pretty good.

Good close game. Both teams looked like they were sucking it up there in the last 5 minutes. They played some tough ball.

Big D holds!

Intentional Grnding right there!

BS . How many TOs remaining does BH have?

Well, this is the closest game I've seen tonight so far. Mem D better hang in there.

Memorial D is dragging.

That was a missed pic 6 right there.

I wouldn't have called PI on that last pass. Anyway, incredible end to the 1st half.

+1 Always interesting to listen to what good coaches have to say, and particularly, how they say it.

Yeah, I'd say that the Bulldogs had better keep their pads and helmets on, their eyes open, and their minds on this game at hand. (And the same goes for PNG and their homecoming game as well. )
