FULL GAME LOG

GAME PREVIEW & SERIES REVIEW
For the 16th consecutive season, Longview is post season bound. Following a 35-21 victory over the Heath Hawks, that saw the Lobos having to rebound from a 14-0 deficit, the Lobos clinched their 42nd playoff berth in school history with one game to play. Longview will close up shop on the 2016 regular season when they host the Mesquite Skeeters on Senior Night at Lobo Stadium. The Lobos haven’t lost on Senior Night since 2003 when Lufkin defeated Longview, 14-0. The Skeeters come in eliminated from playoff contention with a 1-5 district record and following a 47-27 loss to Rockwall. Mesquite’s only district win came against Tyler Lee when the Skeeters went for a 2-point conversion in the final minute of the contest to defeat the Red Raiders 57-56. The Lobos will have to wait to decide who their first round opponent is depending on their result AND John Tyler’s result. A John Tyler victory would assure Longview the long trip to Beaumont to take on Beaumont West Brook. A John Tyler loss opens up the possibility that could see the Lobos host Lufkin with a victory over Mesquite.

I'm almost positive everything is gonna be on a Friday night. I don't see why West Brook would help us out there.

I'm guessing our game will be Saturday if TJC isn't playing. The JT coaches seem to like Saturday games and I'm sure Quick will agree to it, if the start time isn't too early. I hope it's Friday night though

Would be a playoff game for TJC if they do play that day.

Playoff bracket for D2 R2 right now (bold is confirmed):

W9. Dallas Jesuit vs R10. Garland Naaman Forest
W11. John Tyler vs R12. Lufkin
W13. TBD vs R14. Austin Anderson
W15. Klein Collins vs R16. Spring DeKaney

R9. Lake Highlands vs W10. Garland Lakeview Centennial
R11. Longview vs W12. Beaumont West Brook
R13. TBD vs W14. San Marcos
R15. Spring Branch Houston Stratford vs W16. Spring Westfield

 

District 13 is too difficult to even try and begin to predict with 5 teams possibly tied at 2-4 after the final week. Spring Westfield/Spring DeKaney/Aldine Nimitz are only possibilites for District 16 and that'll be decide once the 2nd half of the Nimitz/Davis game is over this afternoon.

Westfield and DeKaney now locked in after Davis won this afternoon.

Quick question...if Both JT and LV win out, are they Co-Champs, or does JT take it all.

 

oh yea...not to be too picky, but your 11-6a standings are not correct.

In what world was the UIL in when they formed this region??? It makes NO geographical sense. Dallas area, East Texas, Austin, Houston, and Beaumont????

 

I'm sorry.... but SE Texas should be region III. I can somewhat wrap my head around Austin being in the region....but ideally....region II shouldn't go south of Temple/Killeen........ JMHO. Anything south of there should be in region IV.

 

It's like they purposely make region II as backwards and as difficult as they can make it. Meanwhile.... a half decent team can waltz to the semis in region IV especially.
