We need special teams plays to turn you over and to beat you deep to effect the shape of the defense. Don't have a ton of confidence we can do that. That being said the QB has been getting time to throw it and when he does it's been pretty darn good. I doubt Angleton or LP will give him that amount of time but if it's truly offensive line improvement and not just poor opponents then maybe... there's a punchers chance. this is the most roses I've been on the Cougars in this AD Admin. I understood. I’ve been higher on y’all this year than the ‘experts’, and always thought 3rd was yours to lose. Anything can happen. But, I think there’s still a gap between the 3 top teams. On the good news front, I’ve been keeping an eye on 12-5A this year, and I think y’all have improved while their 4 seem to have fallen off a little bit. The gap between y’all doesn’t look to be as big. I feel pretty good about our Top 3’s chances against them this year. I’m waiting to see how the 3 of us fare against each other as well. It’s going to be a fun last 3 weeks. Quote
OlDawg Posted October 19 Author Report Posted October 19 Week 4 District Scores: Crosby 57 Kempner 0 Angleton 67 Kingwood Park 13 Pasadena 0 Friendswood 77 New Caney Porter 21 La Porte 67 District Standings: Angleton (4-0) (7-0) La Porte (4-0) (6-1) Crosby (4-0) (4-3) New Caney Porter (2-2) (4-3) Friendswood (1-3) (3-4) Kingwood Park (1-3) (3-4) Kempner (0-4) (3-4) Pasadena (0-4) (1-6) Weekly Rundown: Week 4 is best described as the have's and the have nots. The top three teams remained undefeated, and cemented a PO spot with blowout wins against their competition. Angleton, La Porte, and Crosby will all advance to Bidistrict against 12-5AD1 competition. The District Championship, and seeding will be decided in these last three district games between the three. First up, La Porte will travel to Cougar Stadium to take on the resurgent Crosby Cougars. The Cougars are having a similar season to La Porte last year with 3 tough losses to begin the season against solid competition, followed by 4 straight district wins. They will enter the contest after coming off a shutout of Kempner, and are looking to pull off an upset of the Bulldogs to get a home PO game in the first round. La Porte will be looking to continue their district dominance--with their last district loss coming in early October of 2023--and stay on track for their third straight District Championship. Meanwhile, Angleton will face a Kempner team still looking for their first district win, and should remain undefeated. Another game with PO implications will be the Mustangs of Friendswood travelling to Randall Reed Stadium to take on the New Caney Porter Spartans. Friendswood must win out to take the 4 seed and make the PO's. If the games go as expected, New Caney Porter, Friendswood, and Kingwood Park will all be sporting 2-3 district records. This Week's Key Game - There are actually two key games this week. La Porte vs. Crosby at Cougar stadium will be a PO seeding game. The winner will keep pace with Angleton--who should have little issue with a Kempner squad at home. The second key game will be Friendswood at New Caney Porter, as it will be a must-win game for Friendswood to keep their PO hopes alive. Quote

I didn't quite realize until I saw the bracket, how important it was to win second place last night. I knew of course that the second place team would host CS at home while the 3rd place team would have to go to Bryan and play A&MC. But looking at the bracket , the 2nd place team in Dist 11 if they win would face the winner of Houston Madison and Beaumont United while if Crosby should beat A&MC their next opponent would be PA Memorial, the highest rated team in the region.

That was a good game last night by both defenses. Y’all’s speed was able to make a difference IMHO. Crosby had the advantage LP didn’t in that they could see some of what y’all were going to do offensively. They held up pretty well until late. I hope they can give AMC a good game. Did you ever find out about the ejection? I never saw what team the player was on even… Quote

Did you ever find out about the ejection? I never saw what team the player was on even… It was a Crosby OL, who I don't think it would be proper to name on here. I went back and watched again and he and an Angleton DL (not Mack with his heavily wrapped leg!) seemed to be having a feud on two plays and after the 2nd time Angleton voluntarily pulled out their player, I suppose so he could cool off or to talk to him. I assume that if Crosby had done the same theirs would not have been ejected either. I looked up the rule on if It could be carried over to a following game and yes it could. However, the officials have to file a report for it to take effect and I assume since you don't hear about this being enforced much that in most cases they don't unless it's something like a player threatening an official or something like that. It would be nice to hear from somebody who is an official on this matter. Quote
