I forget; which of you is Beavis?

Keep trying, maybe you'll get lucky one day.

I have got to say that I am happy you picked EB. You picked: Arp to beat EF; HS to beat EF, Clarksville to beat Mildred; Nocona to beat Mildred; Sonora to beat Mildred; Refugio to beat EB; then you cursed EF by picking them to beat EB. With your picks being sooo consistant.... well, 'nough said.

see ya next week... if you get that far.

*sniff* a whole week and no one found this forum from west TX. I guess they're charging the batteries to light them big lights in Marble Falls since us high folutin folks from Mildred aren't plugging our cars into the stadium lighting.

Did a Google search and this forum thread was the first thing on "Senora vs Mildred" search. They can get here if they are at all interested.

Hypothetically speaking: If school_XYZ has so many immigrant kids (who don't play football, OP's premise, not mine) that it is now class 5A, but can only get 10 students that are interested in football, then it drops it's football program and saves money. What would be the harm? The football program is there to suit the needs of the students, not the other way around.

aww, Eagleman, you know this is an East TX forum. If you're not from East TX, you're a nobody who never played anyone. If you beat an East TX team, you got lucky. We sure get lucky a lot...

I'm a bit confused too. The preview article for the game against Mildred (www.sonorabroncos.org/page64/page64.php) spends most of its verbage talking about Sonora winning state semi-final games, most of which occured before any of the team was born. The most recent, 2001, the current team may have just started elementary school. In a search to find some stat that showed the Broncos superior, they went to sacks; most of the teams Mildred has played have relied on running the football. It emphasizes that Mildred lost to Centerville 70-22 (knew that was coming up AGAIN). Of course, Centerville went undefeated in the regular season, won their district, and lost to HS by a missed extra point in overtime in a game Cville was favored to win. Sonora has lost to teams that were 9-2 (eliminated in first playoff game), 2-8, and 12-1 (still in playoffs). If we excuse the loss to Wall ( a division 1 opponent who won region 1), that still leaves a team that went 3-2 in district, tied for second, and lost to its district's second worst team. Do they get free deer sausage with the bus trip?

+10 But it's their norm. You probably know that better than I.

Tale of the tape: AdjustedStats prediction: Mildred 37-28 66% Rushing: Mildred 284.2 Sonora 252.9 Passing: Mildred 183.1 Sonora 78.5 Points/Game: Mildred 55.8 Sonora 35.5 Record: Mildred 12-1 Sonora 12-3 Last Game: Mildred 45-35 (vs Nocona); Sonora 42-21 (vs Colorado) This SHOULD be our easiest game in a while. That probably makes it the most dangerous. After the Centerville debacle and last week's scare from Nocona, I don't think Coach Harvell will allow the players to take Sonora lightly. The Broncos will be coming into this game flying high from last week's dominating win and nothing to lose. I think as long as we keep our heads in the game, we win by a couple of touchdowns (at least).

Better stick to hopscotch... you can't predict football.

Gratz EF! GL next week against EB. Bye bye my little ponies!

Where is the Yellowjacket/Brahma game going to be played?

You are correct that stats do not win games. But since I was busy watching Mildred games, it is a convenient way to find out something objective about the teams. You will not get anything objective on these forums. I apologize for getting carried away in response to the sophomoric name calling HS fans have been doing about Mildred for at least 2 years now. They know nothing about us. Yes, I could have flippantly responded as they have, just not my style. It was wrong of me to impune an entire community over the words of a few idiots.
