While I love the enthusiasm with the score predictions (and of course I think/want the DAWGS get a win) and La marque not being the same as they were during that remarkable run they once had. It is still La marque and they gonna strap up and bring it come game time. Jasper needs that.  

This game has absolutely all of the makings of a TRAP game for the Bulldogs...

LaMarque is better than their 0-4 record and they have lots of athleticism, just go watch their Hudl highlights. 

Jasper is riding high and full of confidence...rightfully so....but Jasper has a very, very long bus ride to play a team everyone thinks they should easily beat and it will be easy for them to get complacent.  Nothing would make LaMarque's season like beating the now #2 ranked team in 4A Div II. 

Keep focused Jasper and play hard every play of every game.  This Jasper team has the potential to be special if they keep their focus through November and hopefully December

I agree, they always have the athletes, but they are not the same as the 90's and early 00's teams. They were already on a somewhat downward slide before the merger and haven't really stopped it since.   But they always have that dangerous breakaway threat.

It's interesting how DCTF has Jasper ranked #2 in 4A-DII, but they're not getting votes yet in the 4A AP poll. I guess we won't see that unless we beat WOS next Friday, which is far from a given. Records don't matter when we play those guys. 

Unless it has changed, I think the AP poll is sports writers across the state, from big cities.  They do not often have a clue.  Remember one year Jasper had an athlete ranked 7th best senior in the USA by RIVALS.  But was not picked at all on AP all-state teams.  No credibility at all in my mind for the AP at least as relates to small schools.

Like I stated... Jasper should have no problem here. Trap game or not 

So jasper went all the way to 146 to play a team they wouldn't have  sign up to play a few years ago. Just like Mayweather they wait until the opponent has seen their better days then want to fight. Because if the coach had a spine could have went right down the road a rumble with newton instead of running to Galveston.

This game was probably scheduled at least a couple of years ago when LaMarque was more competitive and we've got WOS next week. Barbay is doing a better job of scheduling than he has in the past. I don't think he's scared of Newton at all. He's part of the Newton family and it's probably not something he wants to do for that reason.  I'd love to see it happen, but I'd be surprised if it does other than the scrimmage every year.

    • The locals have almost finished firing the first ever Speaker of the House from Southeast Texas upon direct order of Trump and his minions.   It's a sad day... Locals have decided that being represented by the most powerful man in the House didn't mean anything.... they'd rather a political novice to represent this part of SETX.  And why is that?  He wasn't MAGA enough for them.  Who cares that it will hurt locally... What Trump says, goes.     Just yesterday I saw Trump on television demanding that we fire Phelan... How he's a RINO, weak on the border, etc... why?  Because he wouldn't overlook the criminal actions done by Ken Paxton, one of Trump's key supporters in the effort to overturn the 2020 Election and allow Trump to remain in office despite the will of the voters.   Trump never even mentioned Covey's name, and I doubt he would recognize Covey if Covey walked up with a cup of coffee.  Who cares that it's bad for SETX?  Not the R voters from SETX!   Then I saw Covey's preacher on a different ad tell a bald face lie.  Why should Phelan be fired?  "He put Democrats in positions of power in the House."  Really?  That's been the position of BOTH parties for as long as anybody can remember.  They ALWAYS give the minority party committee chairmanships.  But in 2022 the Rs decided that the practice should stop.  Democrat voters should not be allowed a voice in the crafting of legislation if there is a single majority Republican seat in the House, according to the Rs.  Representative Government?  Never heard of it, huh? Never did I believe that we'd have an abortion ban, constitutional carry, huge cuts for school property taxes, and Texas law enforcement being greenlit to enforce immigration law.  But it all happened while Phelan was speaker.  Without a doubt, the most conservative Speaker, ever.  But still a dirty RINO for not being MAGA enough.  It would be funny if it weren't true.   I've been following politics long enough to remember when Rs couldn't get elected in Texas... I'm confident that we're headed back that direction.  I mean, it's obvious that with population shifts we'll be turning blue eventually.  I think that the behavior of the leadership of the Republican Party is going to cause that shift sooner than expected.  I won't be surprised to see Democrat Senators and possibly even a governor elected within 12 years.  Maybe less.  The Rs will be a party apparatus without a voting base behind them.

    • The game will be live streamed for those that have Game Changer under the Chester team thread.  I believe the radio station out of Palestine will have radio broadcast.
