I'm interested to see how Wimberley stops the power run game.  If they can't slow that down from the jump, then Wimberley is in serious trouble.... People aren't talking about this but that o-Line has

No doubt about that. Wimberley has the big play passing potential that Cuero didn't have, but Wimberley does NOT have as good a defense nor a superstar do everything player like Whittington (but no on

One thing you have to keep in mind that you mention is that they play no one with the speed anywhere close to what Silsbee will bring to the table. They havent seen it and they cant duplicate it in pr

Don’t take anyone lightly at this point , stay  focused and win . We would like to say we lost to a state champion . Behind you 112% .  

They have a good shot.  They just scored 35 points against the best defense in the state.  

The place where the Tigers had the edge was in the kicking game and that proved to be decisive.  Our place kicker scored 10 points and sent most kickoffs into the endzone.  Other than that it was a toss up.

Clearly it was the breaks and the big plays that decided that game.  As Yankees pitcher Lefty Gomez said back in the 30's, "I'd rather be lucky than good."

Anyway, It's been a great two years.  Even if both games had gone the other way it still would have been great.  But now Carthage has moved down into Div II and all bets are off.  We could both be in for a dry spell.  Our last debacle against them still hurts.  It was like Pearl Harbor.  We had no warning.

Sorry to hurt anyone’s feelings, but a good defense does not give up 5 TDs.

It wasn't 5 TD's, it was 4 TD's and 2 field goals and one very exciting and unusual looking 2 point conversion to tie the game with only a few minutes left.

It was a strange 4th quarter.  You kind of had to be there. WOS seemed to be in control with a 28 - 17 lead going into the 4th and then the wheels just came off.  Big plays, unlikely plays, a 48 yard field goal, a fake punt that shouldn't have worked, a lateral option pass that shouldn't have worked.  A Tiger defense that had been porous all night suddenly stiffened into a brick wall.  It was just one of those things.   Fate took a hand.

It wasnt for w.o to win. Ur correct faith was on silsbee side. But the only thing that will always bother me is.that every kid wanted to go for the 4th and inches after the time out.and u don't even let the kids decide it. U punt the ball with a kid that has been one of the worse punters anywhere.even though the punt was tip.i applaude the kid for trying.but he's not a punter.

Strange though.  There are still some Coach Smith detractors in Silsbee and I don't  understand it...

There will always be detractors regardless of success and it's usually sour grapes over their kid not getting the PT they think he deserved or (better yet) the PT they thought they deserved 20 yrs ago.

      Will Anahuac lose a district game ?

      By 2wedge · Posted

      He actually had a pretty solid year for a sophomore starting in that district. I can assure you, it hasn't hurt his recruiting at all and that will only improve with the move back to the Wack.

      What has happened to Jasper?

      By Bulldogs92 · Posted

      If Crumedy eventually has bigger aspirations than being in Jasper, every aspect of the program will be looked at when someone interviews him for any job. He knows that. The mindset needs to be that any time someone wears a Jasper uniform, that they're doing everything they possibly can to win. It matters.

      Trump Running in 2024

      By LumRaiderFan · Posted

      This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up It's a poll but I could definitely see this as realistic.   From the article: Catholics in the United States have swung dramatically against President Biden in recent years, now boasting a significant statistical break towards his GOP challenger. Pew Research released on Apr. 30 a report exploring support for presidential candidates sorted by religious affiliation. The poll found that 55% of Catholics support or lean towards supporting former President Donald Trump in a head-to-head against Biden. Conversely, only 45% of Catholics support Biden in the same one-on-one pairing. The 12% margin of support in favor of Trump marks a significant shift from 2020, when he held an extremely narrow lead — 50% to 49%. Biden currently leads among Hispanic Catholics with a narrow 49%-47% split, but the close contest marks a major shift rightward for the demographic. In 2020, a similar poll from Pew Research found Hispanic Catholics preferred Biden to Trump with a staggering 67%-26% split.

      You said a lot there. Truthfully, that is the root of the issue. Who cares what a kid thinks about how coaches are running a program? Kids play, coaches coach. For some reason, parents have this backward in a lot of places and its wreaking havoc.
