That’s why you have to Throw the ball. That offense is one dimensional. 

They made it to the state title game with that offense unless I am missing the sarcasm?

Not sure what they are feeding them boys over in Austin. They must have 15 starters that are 6'3" or taller. They look like a team of half Ed McCaffreys and half JJ Watts.

Looked at highlights on Hudl. That Crosby defense looked exhausted in just about every clip I saw. 

I don't think you can say holding them to 35 should be good enough. They needed to hold Texas High to what, 7 points?

You have to hold them to whatever you need to hold them to and that Crosby defense was too exhausted to get the stop when they needed to.

Crosby has the advantage that a lot of Dallas area teams usually have over Houston area teams.

A one high achool district.

Teams like DeSoto are always going to have the advantage over teams like Spring Westfield for instance. As soon as a Houston area team gets good, they split off and add another tram into that school district. Whether it's Cypress, Spring, Fort Bend, Manvel, Pearland, Katy.

There is no continuity. 

Dallas area, due to different zoning laws, is surrounded  by small towns. There are some exceptions, but typically those exceptions aren't winning state championships.

The dynasties are Aledo, Argyle, DeSoto, Cedar Hill....

Crosby has that same advantage. CE King has it too and if left alone for a few decades will be a powerhouse. I bet they will be split up though into two high schools though if growth continues that way.

Denton Guyer (13-1) vs Tomball (11-3), 7 p.m. Saturday at Waco’s McLane Stadium

Katy (14-0) vs Austin Westlake (14-0), 2 p.m. Saturday at Waco’s McLane Stadium

Katy Paetow (13-1) vs Corpus Christi Flour Bluff (12-2), 7 p.m. Friday at San Antonio’s Heroes Stadium

Wow. 

This is an extremely impressive accomplishment. Can't imagine anything similar has been accomplished before. If so, it must be pretty rare.

Uh, he mentioned "first round -- Manvel". I was correct, stay out of 4th place if you don't want to see Manvel.  Now if you want to discuss the others thats a different topic. 

I don't understand if this is a schtick or what's going on so I will just say ok thanks for your input.

Yep. Just stay out of 4th place...

uh huh.

Manvel, Hightower, Angleton and Paetow.

Take your pick.

or Madison, Galena Park and Sterling.

FB Marshall being the obvious outlier.

Paetow will be 6a.  

Yeah I meant last year when Paetow beat the fool out of Lee in the playoffs.

Would be nice to get a Galena Park or Houston Madison in the first round instead of Manvel.

Where did you get that number? I check the website and show that they had 1850.5 not 1937. See link:

Thanks for that link.

I see now they opted up. What a shortsighted decision by the school district. Certainly robbed Lee of a playoff victory last year. I assume they opted up last time around as well. 

Is Goose Creek insisting Lee stay with the other two or what?

Likely could have a chance down in Division 2 to win a playoff game perhaps one year but not against the Paetow and Manvels of the world. I feel like that Div 1 to Div 2 might be the steepest drop of any drop in classification.

Oak Cliff - that's my hood - put it in they face - get this %&$@ understood

SOC lost by what two TDs to Duncanville for their lone loss of the season.  Hardly call this one much of an upset.

Barbers Hill by 17.

Crosby by 35 from what I saw in the Marshall highlights on Hudl.

Marshall struggled to an extent with Galena Park. Lee beat the fire out of Galena Park and Lee isn't that good. I'm just upset I didn't go with my gut and pick a bigger BH victory. Could see this coming.

PNG by 35

They might lose to GP. But it would be a good game.

Dayton would beat Galena Park by 35 minimum. Lee beat GP by nearly 50 points. I think Lee and Dayton are probably in the same ballpark.

I think every team in our district not named Santa Fe would beat every team in their district not named Marshall. 

None of the games would even be within 4 TDs. Dayton would best Galena Park by 50 if they wanted to and Galena Park is the second place team.

Makes me all the more certain Barbers Hill will best Marshall.

reminds me of that north shore offense back in 1996. Spread everyone out. Run everyone deep. Let ced cormier scramble around and try to make it happen.

Barbers Hill 42 - Marshall 34

Crosby 70 - Madison 6

Settle down fellas.

There's no shame in Manvel having your number.

They are a great team in a great district with three teams that all would have beat the fool out of Crosby just like Manvel did.

In defense of the district, no other district would be rolling up the wins either against this particular Manvel district. If we played the HISD district first we'd be 15-1 over the last four years.

What's Crosby's record against teams from that district the last four years? 1-3?

it's all relative.

would need Ball to lose to Laporte in that scenario for Lee to get in.
