  1. On the nail, why not try to emulate WOS . It’s a proven formula. Never can be sure how Mexia will react. I believe they will make mistakes being over hyped up. And you can’t make mistakes against the Mustangs , they will capitalize . Cornell will have them ready , gotta come out focused and execute .
  2. When West Orange Cove and Stark High combined to become WOS in 1977 the kids got to vote on school colors and mascot. It was not a popular decision at the time, but it was the right decision for the school district. I was a West Orange Chief and I have a lot of friends who were Stark Tigers, Now we all sit together at WOS games.
  3. I also used Chrome , but on an older machine over DSL , so occasional freeze up, but I had two different games going .
  4. If you can’t make the games you can watch them live on Texanlive.com . You do have to pay a fee. You can buy a playoff pass for $29 that covers all the broadcasts , you can also watch previous games .
  5. Yes KOGT will broadcast the game, but I will be there, love going to these playoff games. Hopefully injury free game. Undisciplined teams with nothing to lose can be a problem.
  6. My main concern about playing these playoff games with a 1 - 8 team is the possibility of injury’s which will hurt us going forward .
  7. Ok I’ll let you get by with that Snuff ! Lol
  8. Oh man I'm telling her what you said, your in hot water . Lol
  9. Chad was a huge asset this year and will be even more valuable next year, those deep kick offs and the ability to kick field goals . Great work Chad and Kicker and TD for supporting his kids in every way possible .
  10. AT&T gives metroplex schools an advantage., They have home field advantage . The team sleeps at home the night before the game, they practice at their facilty the day before the game . Their fan base doesn't have to travel , which is costly . A number of them play other playoff games at the venue . It's setup for NFL football , not high school. So familiarity with the venue is an advantage . Definitely a disadvantage for the lower classification having to play on Wednesday and Thursday , short prep week. As a fan I love going and watching 5 or 6 games over two days . But I really believe what is best for teams and their fans is to let the two teams pick the venue for their game . But it appears money hungry entities have railroaded high school football in Texas.
  11. Great season Mustangs , Capped off a 16 win season with a great win. This group was surly special. I think they could have come back out and won the Div 1 game. Was at the game Friday , recorded the game and watched it back this morning. My thoughts about the game didn't change , I give Sweetwater props , for playing hard, but the outcome for me was never in question . The Fox Announcers were certainly biased But we've become used to that , can anyone remember a broadcast where WOS was involved that they were not. Unprofessional to say the least. Best of luck to all the seniors . For the underclass men, defense of the title starts on Monday.
  12. I bet they are working on punting it out of bounds .
  13. Leaving Thursday with 3 Others in tow. I've made all the other state champ games with exception of '88 with Paris. Lets go meet em .
  14. Everyone talks about how fast this team is . Speed is nothing new at WOS , just take a look at UIL track history. East Texas always talks about speed , and they are correct, it s in South East Texas.l
  15. Sweetwater has a good team, looks like Gilmer also had a good team, as did Navarro , Giddings , Robinson , Kennadale, Silsbee, Liberty but they all ran into an execptional WOS team. To many weapons , to much speed , and the heart of a champion .
  16. Gilmer and Sweetwater both look like "good" football teams , and so was Navarro and Giddings and Robinson and Kennedale and Silsbee but they ran into a "Real Good" football team.
  17. A huge thanks to all the folks that came out to support WOS last night at NRG. I saw many schools represented . And it was like a reunion for me with many of my class mates from the Houston area in attendance .
  18. I've had folks from PNG, Vidor , BC , LCM , Nederland , Orangefield all tell me they are coming to support the Stangs - Rock the house.
  19. Southeast Texas schools have an abundance of very good atheletes , the difference at WOS is the program that has been in place for many years , basic skills , blocking , tackling . Discipline is essential and Cornell requires it. Conditioning is a key , you will very rarely see a mustang with a cramp or bent over with his hands on his knees trying to get some air . We've played against some great atheletes over the years , epic battles with Jasper come to mind , but they could not go 4 quarters at the mustang pace. Last and maybe most important - consistency in very good coaching . But even that suffered at WOS during some periods , we had the teams , but our play selection was not what was required to win 3 or 4 rounds deep. The perfect storm has been brewing the last several years . But we will lose some of those good coaches, we always have, many went on the be very successful , Barry Norton at Texas high comes to mind. Several state championships , I think maybe he took that mustang program with him. I for one would love to see SE Texas teams become state power houses , just takes disciplined hard work.
  20. Heads up , I think Kicker mentioned this , Parking at NRG will be $12 . Game Day - Lets Go Meet Em
  21. Adults 11 , Students 6 , If you have kids going , good idea to get them at the school, then more money for drinks and junk food. Gonna be a great atmosphere for HS football , can't wait for Friday . Stangs will be ready .
  22. Yeah , I saw that , went after an int and got hit by his own guy. Hate that .
  23. Navarro may be one of the best "Teams we've seen this year " , better than Kennendale ?? They don't have superstars just a well coached bunch. I don't think the offense had a single penalty in the Cuero game . We will have to play good solid football against this group. Coach T will have them ready , execute execute execute.
