Halftime scores of these two games

19-0 WO-S

35-0 Carthage. Was a running clock in 2nd half.

These games were played two weeks apart.

WOS is a different team since that game.

Tepper has Carthage winning this game.  He said it's hard to pick against a coach who is 10-0 in State Championship games.  I have to agree!

The smart play is certainly picking the Bulldogs. WOS is certainly the underdog, but the game is played on the field and something tells me these kids don't really care what the prognosticators are saying. They've been underdogs since this derby started.

Just Believe!! WOS will bring their defense to AT&T that will surprise some people. I can't wait. Yes, they have some good playmakers on offense but so do we. We are not backing down from Carthage or anybody else.

Yes. There is no area or angle where WOS has an advantage over Carthage. Carthage is superior in all metrics including difficulty of schedule and talent. WOS locals will blame the coaches after the game.

Welp surly, I don't care what your team has done throughout the season or playoffs. This is my opinion. Why does Carthage play in high school D2 anyway when clearly, they should be playing UT or D1, and not WOS according to some people. Nobody is blaming the coaches if we are unsuccessful. I along with others don't care who says it over and over in order to get a reaction to start crap. We are blessed to have talented young men who have and will continue to win and represent Orange. Then, there are other schools who will never ever win district and their only reason for coming on this site is to create a stink and antagonize others.

I don't care what the people even Carthage think or saying. 

Mustangs players and fans, be happy and bless that we are playing in the state championship. 

No matter what with results and head up so boys will learn and ready next year. 

Let's go and ready! Go Mustangs!!!

[A BUC 77]

Coach Dan Ray Hooks will be pacing the sidelines.  Hollering at the refs.  Motivating the players.  It will be a good day for Stangs.

Carthage is 4AD2 because of their enrollment but make no mistake that they would win 4AD1 going away.

As far as the WOS fans go, there is endless transcript of who they blame. Everyone can read it easily enough. Check out WOS/HF thread for a good example.

OK thank you for that

Good season WOS... might as well throw in the towel, cause a bunch of people on the internet are saying you have no chance.

David has no chance

USA had no chance against the SV

App St had no chance against Michigan

Douglas had no chance against Tyson
