Looking forward to seeing the Charger's passing attack, and the Dawg defense. Should be a big challenge for a young LP D. Streaming broadcast starts at 6:30 p.m.

La Porte has found a kicker again. Been a long time.

LP.  I must have already voted in the poll, because it won't let me vote now.

I hear ya’. I’m waiting to see about the entire D myself. They may not have to be a juggernaut this year. Just serviceable, bend don’t break.

This is the first time I can remember—and I’ve been watching the program since the 70’s—that LP actually has 2 D1 deep threats, along with a D1 commit TE, a D1 QB, and Sean Simon. Add in a K who is solid from 50 in, and a Soph RB who could probably start for many other teams.

All at the same time.

There will be some points scored this year—regardless of the defense of the opponent. Just too much to cover.

How things will be shared will be interesting.

The only Sr. D1 is the TE. The rest are underclassmen. LP looks to be a beast for at least the next 2 years. One of the D1 WR is only a freshman with offers from Baylor & others already.

If all stay at LP and healthy, we should have some good battles again.

I'll take FBC in a close one.

DCTF has La Porte as a 9 point favorite.

[OlDawg]

I'd expect LP to use the first few series to try to establish the run game as usual. If they are able to control the ground, and get a lead, then we may see some of the new offensive schemes to mix it up. Not sure if they'll want to play it close to the vest and not show much before the Border Battle next week, or if they'd prefer to get the in-game work, and put stuff on film to make the Deer have to think about defending different looks.

I do expect a 'pointy game.' But, I'd be pleasantly surprised if the D held the Chargers somewhat in check considering their youth, and historical weakness against the pass. If they show they can slow/stop the passing game of Crawford, my expectations for them will go way up.

[BlazeDawg]

This may be a hot take but I don't see Crawford coming close to LP.  LP returns with arguable a top 5 offense in 5A behind the Dallas schools and if the defense can hold up, there shouldn't be any issues.

Massey Ratings say LP 35, Crawford 28  Good luck to the Dawgs!

Saw some of those Massey predictions. Some are wildly off.

Not saying this is one of them but any rating predicting Kountze to beat Buna and Hamshire-Fannett to beat La Marque by 4 TD's is not to be looked at too seriously.

Massey for me is starting to make me feel the same way I think of MaxPreps. 🤷🏾‍♂️

If the info I'm being told is correct from someone who has seen LP this year--and used to coach--I'd add about 10 to LP's score, and subtract 7 from Crawford's. Somewhere in the neighborhood of 45-21 LP. We'll see.

They were way off on most of La Porte's games last year. Even picked the wrong winner on at least 2 or 3 games.
