Golfingnut Posted September 21, 2016 Share Posted September 21, 2016 My opinion since the Summer, if you care to hear it.... Gilmer Gladewater Atlanta Pittsburg Pleasant Grove Spring Hill Always care about your opinion DirtyBird Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackflag79 Posted September 21, 2016 Share Posted September 21, 2016 I don't know what y'all put in the water over there but y'all are scaring me. Y'all need to stop with all this Gladewater love. Aliens must have stopped in Gilmer and kidnapped the Gilmer faithful, brainwashing them before returning them to Buckeyeland. Where's jackpots? Surely he still hates my Bears!!' Hahahaha...! Just because I think the gladwater bares are good enough to beat us this season doesn't mean I have any "love" for gladwater -- quite the opposite in fact. I'm pretty sure we can beat them, but we will certainly have to play better than we have been in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty sure we can beat them, but we will certainly have to play better than we have been in my opinion. Now I feel better!!!! 😀 My point is that despite being 3-0, in my opinion the Bears haven't played well enough to be considered front runners. I wish we had gotten a full game against Carthage. Despite it being game 1 and having our scrimmage the week before cancelled I think if we had played the entire game we would know a little more about where we are compared to teams like Carthage who are really good teams. Even though we got in a little over a quarter's worth against them, it was raining and game was delayed almost 2 hours do conditions weren't enough to give us any ideal of where they are. Games vs Kilgore, Center & CH, although before the season seemed like games that would be hard and good indicators of where we are as a team, today don't make me all warm & fuzzy about how good we are. I'm skeptical. I see our weaknesses and I'm not ready to crown the Bears district champions. Of course you know I would never do that anyway. I'm sure other Bear fans disagree with me. Not the first time or last. And I'm not bashing on my Bears. Just being honest about what I see and the long long road ahead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unlike some of the other posters on here (you know who), you are being humble and not counting your chickens before they hatch. You understand there is a lot of football left this year and there are too many variables to list that could come into play in the future. You have a ringside seat to see both good and bad for every game and you still show respect for each opponent and the unknown. That's one of the signs of a true THSF fan. Support your team with facts, but respect the game and ALL opponents. Wish others would take some pointers from your perspective. Trollers, pot stirring and bragging get old fast! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SHillBuckeye Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 First off, Gilmer is the team to beat.... to be the man you gotta beat the man... until that happens, Gilmer reigns supreme. But yes, I think GW has a good chance of beating them this year.... Run the ball and play defense thats what it takes to beat Gilmer and thats what GW does to a T..... I agree with you to an extent. Carthage did exactly what it takes to beat Gilmer. Balance, with a good defense. To beat Gilmer, you will have to be balanced on offense. Just being able to run the ball won't do it. Gladewater has a great running game, and a stingy defense, but they haven't played a game against anyone that has a strong offense like Gilmer. I don't count Carthage since that game wasn't completed, but Carthage was ahead. You will have to be able to pass, and not really anyone in that district can pass except for Gilmer. I will say Gladewater stands the best chance, but the game is in Gilmer, so no beating them there. Possibly in the playoffs at a neutral site if they were going to get it done. 1. Gilmer 2. Gladewater 3. Atlanta 4. Pittsburg 5. PG 6. SH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cowboyandchrist Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 The Dawgs held them to 1 first down in the first half and 28 to 0 score. They gained their yards in the 3 and 4 quarters. I think they 180 yards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blackflag79 Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 I thought it was 35-17 at half. That was the score of the Gilmer / Carthage game at the half. The Carthage / Liberty-Eylau game was 21-0 at the half I believe. It became 28-0 after the Dawgs' first possession of the second half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tatum_DirtyBird Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 I thought it was 35-17 at half. My bad. I thought Cowboy was talking Carthage/Gilmer. That was the score of the Gilmer / Carthage game at the half. The Carthage / Liberty-Eylau game was 28-0 at the half I believe. Yeah, I just realized that.

SmoakyBandito Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 Everything I am seeing says Carthage was ahead 21-0 at half. Yea 21-0 at the half. Dropped a 65 yard bomb on our first possession of the 2nd half to go up 28-0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H3llR4z0r Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 Here's a comparison of offensive statistics of L-E vs both Carthage and Atlanta. I really think Atlanta's defense has the potential of being great. Liberty-Eylau offensive stats vs Carthage;17/29 - 171 yds32 carries - 174 yds Total yards - 345 Liberty-Eylau offensive stats vs Atlanta;11/28 - 154 yds - 1 Int 37 carries - 186 yds Total yards - 340 That being said, they've been pretty balanced on offense so far. If they can be more consistent, this district could be interesting :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
