FULL GAME LOG


GAME CAPSULE:
For the 58th time in 55 years, the Lobos and Panthers meet this coming Friday on the football field. Meeting multiple times in 2002, 2003, and 2007, the Lobos and Panthers have not played only one time (2005) since weather cancelled the 1957 meeting at Panther Stadium in Lufkin. This year, the Lobos look to tie the series back up with a victory for the first time since 2003 and for the 8th time in the series history. No team has played Longview more in the post season than their old district rival, an impressive 7 meetings between the two schools, and no series between any other school that Longview has played is as even as this one. This season though, the two teams come in with different feelings. Longview is fresh off holding off the #4 ranked team out of Mississippi's Class 6A in Olive Branch. The Lobos and Conquistadors had four different lead changes in a game that swayed back and forth but was ultimately decided on a miss extra point by Olive Branch that hit the left upright. The victory was Longview's five in six games at Shreveport's Independence Stadium. Lufkin, however, comes in feeling quite down about itself. The Panthers traveled to Dragon Stadium in Nacogdoches looking to extended a winning streak over the Dragons that dated back to 1992. But it wasn't to be. A 96-yard interception return for a touchdown gave Nacogdoches their first win over Lufkin in the lives of every single one of their players. The loss was Lufkin's second straight. They come into Lobo Stadium not having won in Longview since their 14-0 victory to close out the 2003 regular season. The Pack haven't lost three consecutive games since 2008, when they lost consecutive games to Longview, Mesquite, and North Shore. The Lobos also will be going for their third consecutive victory over Lufkin for the first time since winning three straight between 1996 and 1998. Friday's match up will also be the second time Longview has had one of their rivalries featured in the Great American Rivalry Series. The Lobos defeated Marshall in 2009 in their other GARS game. Longview heads home for the first time this season where they hold a 152-35-6 record in the "new" Lobo Stadium. Longview is 9-6-2 in the current Lobo Stadium against Lufkin, with the Pack handing Longview it's first loss in it's new stadium back in 1977 after winning their first 12 games there. Last season, Longview opened up a 31-14 lead against Lufkin at Abe Martin Stadium and rolled to a 45-14 victory in their first victory in Lufkin since 1998.

You're sandbagging too... Longview struggled with Marshall while LP best the brains off a team who Longview struggled with in a scrimmage. These two teams always play one another tough, so it is possible that Longview could lose.

 

Last year....

 

 

 

Btw....I don't sandbag, you can ask Lobo84 and Wolf. :lol:

After seeing Marshall get destroyed by Parkview, and then Longview struggle with OB, this game is a toss-up. Only advantage to Longview is that it is at home, and hopefully the guys (minus Hasty, Whitaker) will actually decide to play football for once this month.
