  1. I think we all did exactly what Coach King was preaching for his players not to do.   We looked at the common opponent scores and said blowout with no challenge at all.  During the game that old Longview fan mentality crept back in for lots of fans.   Bottom line is every game will be different and we are not the same team as last year.  Things are not clicking yet like we expected, especially with the passing game and penalties.  I hope we get it going.   Sometimes Haynes misses the throws, then he hits them, and the receivers drop a few.  It’s hard to get in sync when that happens, and it happens every game so far.  Everybody in that group has things to correct.   Will it happen, I hope so.  Without it I don’t see up repeating.   At some point in the playoffs you have to be able to run and pass and impose you will on the other team.  We can’t do that yet.

    No doubt.

    Only losing seasons in the last 49 years...1971 (3-6-1), 1994 (4-5-1), 1999 (4-6) and 2000 (3-7).

    Probably should've had a winning record in 1994, but a 26-20 loss to Bryan (got down 24-0 but clawing back and then couldn't complete the comeback) and a 14-13 loss at #1 Ruston (went for two with 52 seconds left in the game and fumbled it) denied that. Same could be said about 1999 in having at least a .500 record but a overtime loss at Lake Highlands denied that. 

    We've been extremely fortunate over the last five decades.

    Chris Butcher rushed for 200 yards in that loss.   Three quick scores in the first 3 minutes of the game off turnovers.  It was all Longview after that.

  3. Great news on Merideth!!!  Still on cloud nine after watching the defense destroy Rockwall.  Like I said the other day, I've been watching Longview football since 1978 and other than 1980 this is the best defense I've seen.  So proud of our Lobos and I know we still need to improve, but dang when and if we do get it all together.....  LOOK OUT!!!!   GO LOBOS beat Horn!!!!

  4. Lol.  Every squirrel 🐿 gets a nut 🥜 every now and then.  I said 42-21 I was hoping we beat them worse and look what happened.   Just like last year we all thought Marshall and JT were really bad and look what happened.   I really think we all don’t know how good this team is.

    I said it a couple of weeks ago that Hale needs to start. He is the threat that this team needs. And he needs to start now. Let the offense get used to him let opposing coaches know that he’s out there so those intermediate routes will start opening up for Moore and Kearby. Once that happens this team is the team to beat to win it all....

    Exactly!!!!!!                                                         #starthale
