HF wins 55-44

People keep pointing out the one year at NRG. There were three or four newer schools playing. 5A-DI George Ranch vs Lake Ridge (15,743).  5A-DII Cedar Park vs Frisco Lone Star (13,479). Not much of a following built up with a lack of alumni. Plus the big thing people don’t like to bring up. DFW doesn’t travel as well. They’ll show up when it’s in their backyard. Katy vs Lake Travis drew 43,718 in Houston. North Shore vs Westlake was 28,841.

Schools within 100 miles of AT&T Stadium went (5-1) this year. China Spring is 109 miles away and also won. There is a real home field advantage for the DFW. 

Stephenville (west of DFW) might have brought 5,000 fans in 1999 to the Astrodome. That was crazy to me considering the monster program they had built.

I like the idea of a 3 stadium rotation and San Antonio is most central location with a dome if a rotation isn’t possible.

There’s also the crowd talking about the experience the kids get playing in AT&T. Well I’ll say Newton was just a excited to win a title in Tyler Rose Stadium when the weather was in the 20’s as they were when winning it AT&T.

I believe they have 3 different helmets. 

Only one helmet now. White with purple PNG letters.

Did PNG change the helmet design? Last i saw  they had arrow design. Last Friday it just said PNG. 

The PNG letters have been on there all season. Joseph changed it when he took over.

How long has PNG been in 5a

PNG has been in 5A (which was 4A until the addition of 6A) since 1988, besides a brief stint in 5A (the current 6A) in 1994 and 1995.

Sounds confusing, but they’ve been primarily in the state’s second highest class since the late 80’s. Of course the UIL then added divisions of the classes more recently.

That LH offense sprint from huddle to the LOS really looks odd, and many times they don't look set before the snap, and there's never a flag thrown. What's the deal? And the center. many times, immediately snaps the ball when he gets to it, fires out and pretty much tackles the nose guard and there's never a flag for holding either. It reminds me of the "old days" back in the 60s and 70s. You better not let coach see you walk to the LOS from the huddle, but we didn't have to sprint, and the QB took the time to call the count and the snap. PNG LBs and DBs will have to be where they want to be or get there quickly after the LH offensive huddle breaks. There should be some interesting practices this week at the Reservation. 

Vidor does the exact same thing. Sprint to the line and usually immediately snaps it a split second after being set. It’s a thing of beauty when the timing is perfect….but when it’s not you see a lot of false starts. Vidor, Orangefield and a lot of other coaches meet in Liberty Hill every summer. It’s the home of the Slot-T Mafia.

Not sure PNG would choose Kyle Field. They haven’t played a game on grass all year if I remember right.
