  1. Crandall drives the field and returns the favor. 7-7 8:58 1st qtr
  2. Marshall first possession ends in 40yd Bird Robinson td. Mavs 7-0
  3. I can honestly say i have no clue how this game will turn out. I can see a Carthage blowout if the Mavs make mistakes early but i can also see Marshall keeping it close with physical play of both sides of the ball. It is true we start a freshman at right tackle Eric Perkins (Big Perk) and he is a HUGE young man! I have to say he held his own vs Longview and if he plays (missed the Henderson game with a concussion) i think he will be just fine. My keys of the game for Marshall are of course limiting costly mistakes/penalties. Our o-line playing physical against Carthage big boys on that d-line to run the ball effectively and keeping the Dawg offense off the field. And the defensive front getting constant pressure on the qb.
  4. As i see it now there are 4 levels of teams in this district. Texas High is alone in the top tier. Marshall has separated themselves into the 2nd level. Hallsville and Whitehouse are in the 3rd grouping as playoff contenders. Then Nac, PT and MP together in the bottom grouping.
  5. Carthage. Im really hoping the Mavs can play them tough and keep it close. I can see an upset being possible but the Dawgs are too good to pick against right now. Hallsville. They seem to be rolling along pretty good right now and Kilgore just struggled against Pine Tree. Chapel Hill. The Dragons are having issues on both sides of the ball. Whitehouse. Henderson is banged up right now and didnt show much against Marshall. Emerson. Dont know much about them but MP is still trying to figure things out. Texas High. Legacy is just....not good. Pine Tree. The Pirates get their first win after playing Kilgore tough.
  6. Alvaraz is a very accomplished and experienced coach. This one is going to test his merit for sure. The first 3 games have been blowouts one way or the other but this one has the chance to be a good game. Looking forward to watching the chess match that will be Surratt vs Alvaraz. Will Carthage be able to slow down the Mavs ground game? Will the Dawgs take advantage of Marshalls suspect secondary? Which team will make the most costly mistakes?
  7. Bird with another 15yd td run. Marshall 44 Henderson 7 9:38 4th qtr.
  8. JQ Davis caps off a long drive with a 15yd td run. 37-7 3:57 3rd qtr.
  9. Lion qb scrambles in for 10 yd td on 4th and 6. 30-7 7:48 3rd qtr.
  10. A lull in the action to end 2nd qtr. Halftime 30-0. Henderson is absolutey wore out! During the Coach Alvarez show he said he wanted us to be the more physical team. Well we are def that!
  11. Mavs recover another Henderson fumble and returns down to 4 yd line. Bird Robinson cashes in. 30-0 10:31 2nd qtr.
  12. Henderson just cant stop the Mav offense. Beautiful 15 yd fade td from Slone to Smith. Xp good. 23-0 3 secs left 1st qtr.
  13. Henderson fumbles into the endzone and recovers for a Maverick safety. 16-0 still 1st qtr.
  14. Sometimes better to be lucky. Slone pitch to JQ bouces off the ground and right back up to him. Carries it 50 yards from there for Mav td. 2pt conv good. Marshall 14-0 1:38 1st qtr
  15. Lion fumble recovered by Marshall then give it right back on a int. Good news is JQ was back in for that play.
  16. Slone to Smith for 35 yd tip drill td. Something to watch Mav rb JQ Davis limped off field. PAT no good. 6-0 Marshall
  17. Put it this way. Longview just dominated Marshall. Marshall was the far better team in the scrimmage vs Legacy. Plus Legacy just went to OT against a team that Marshall had no trouble with. Yikes!!
  18. I dont think any less about Marshalls chances the rest of the year based on this game. I think we will probably lose next week to Carthage and probably to Texas High and win the rest to finish 2nd in district.
  19. I dont think this is a surprise to anybody that was realistic. Longview is just on another level.
  20. Talking about Cameron Haller? He was a baseball player at heart playing football. Went to Texas A&M on baseball scholarship. Never made much of it unfortunately.
  21. I agree with you LoboFan07. Great win by Marshall last week for sure. And we are better than we were this time last year, especially offensively. Maybe down just a touch on the defensive side specifically in the secondary. But Longview isnt Tyler Legacy or Tyler High and they arent the Longview of last year. I think this years Mavs beats last years Lobos. All that to say it will take a monster of a game and a little luck to bounce our way to keep it close. Im holding out hope and will be there cheering on the Red & White! Go Mavs - Beat the Lobos!!
  22. Ill take MP in this one. They seem to be on an upward trend the last couple of years. I can see them possibly competing for that 3rd or 4th playoff spot.
