Regis was pretty athletic. They were throwing endzone fade balls to him and he won most of them

True. He was good. Still is. Just found a better fit for himself. Very proud of him.

I'm gonna leave my personal weekly district rankings the same because everyone won their games.

1. PAM
2. GCM
3. RSS
4. LP

PAM only led 13-7 with 73 total yards in the first half against a tough Lufkin D. But, they took control in the 2nd half to pull away. GCM was also in a tight battle with BWB. But, pulled out the win at home. Can't get much closer than RSS & NC. If I remember correctly, RSS had to score near the end of the game to win on the road. But, they did. LP had a tight first half on the island, and only led 21-19. But, they made adjustments and turned it on in the second half to cruise. Defense still needs work. OL appears to be coming together better.

Some tight games. I expect we'll be in for a lot of these, and I still think tiebreaks will come into play at the end. I don't have any idea what the tiebreak rules are this year in the district. But, I hope Berneathy is keeping them in mind just in case.

Agree with your picks and especially since LP could be either one.

Fun looking back at some of the posts towards the beginning of this thread 😂

Mine are still holding. My thoughts about the LP D and OL are still dead on, as are my thoughts about Lufkin and PAM D's. I also think I was the only one voicing my thoughts that GCM would be a PO team, and neither Beaumont team would make it to the PO's. Still early though, and I still think tie breaks will be involved. I wish I knew what the tie break rules were for this year.
