Yates thrives off the press and turnovers. Silsbee has not done a good job of taking care of the ball this year, and they're not going to magically morph into a different team by Friday.

That's a recipe for a potential disaster.

Silsbee has beat Yates the last few times due to solid PG play and pressuring the ball. Silsbee doesn't press and right now turns the ball over to much. Miracles do happen but I wouldn't expect one this time. Yates 102 Silsbee 79.

Silsbee had over 20 turnovers in the Madisonville game. It was why the game was so close.

Tigers turn it over way too much to have any kind of chance vs. Yates.

solid point guard play, Which reminds me of Braelon Bush. The most electric point guard that I have seen play in the 4A ranks.

Silsbee vs. Houston ISD teams over the last 13 seasons (2013-present)

Overall record

26-8

Playoff record

19-6

 

Since the 2016 season, Silsbee is 15-3 vs. Houston ISD in the playoffs. The three losses were to Yates in 2019 regional final, Washington in 2023 regional final, Wheatley in 2025 2nd round. Wheatley ended up in state championship game.

One could say that Silsbee has owned Houston ISD over the last dozen years.

 

I see the overall going to 26-9, playoff record to 19-7.
