FULL GAME LOG

GAME PREVIEW & SERIES REVIEW
The Longview Lobos opened the 2020 season with a 13-10 halftime lead. While it wasn't fancy, and mistakes were made, Longview still grabbed the lead against a Temple team looking for revenge from their 2019 playoff loss to the Lobos. Then came the third quarter. Anything and everything that could go wrong for Longview did and a snowball effect led to the third worst loss to opening a season in school history. The Wildcats took advantage of four turnovers, seventeen penalties, and 142 penalty yards and walked away with a 40-13 win over the Lobos. It was a disaster of a second half, the third worst in school history in fact. The loss ended a 26-game regular season winning streak, a 13-game non-district winning streak and handed Longview's it's first 2-game losing streak since the 2015-2016 season. Now Longview heads to arch rival Marshall for the 111th meeting between the two programs, the third oldest rivalry in the state of Texas. The Mavericks, season opening winners over New Caney, look to defend their home turf against Longview and rekindle the magic that say the Mavs upset the Lobos back in 2015. That 2015 win, also at Maverick Stadium, is the last time Marshall has knocked off Longview and the only time since the 2000 season. Since that 2015 loss, the Lobos have won 4-in-a-row over Marshall, including two at Maverick Stadium. Marshall has scored just 28 points in those four losses, while the Lobos have tallied 210 points. Overall, Longview has won 18 of the last 19 meetings against Marshall. Longview will head into Maverick Stadium looking to avoid their first two-game losing streak, in the same season, for the first time since 2014 when the Lobos lost to Lufkin (44-14) and John Tyler (41-25) to open the season. That was also the last time Longview has lost three consecutive games. In fact, it's so rare for the Lobos to open a season winless 2 games in that it's only happened twice since 1964 (1971 went 0-1-1 to open the season, 2014 went 0-2). Marshall, on the other hand, is looking for it's first 2-0 start since 2015, and only it's third 2-0 start since the 2010 season. Marshall will also be looking to do something it has not done in quite some time. The Mavericks have not beaten Longview in non-district play since 1931. Since their 1931 win, the Lobos are a perfect 15-0 against the Mavericks in non-district contests. Tonight will mark the 111th meeting betweeen the two schools, which sits at third for most games played in a series in the state of Texas. Marshall was extremely successful early on in the series, winning 18 of the first 22 meetings (two of the contests finished in ties). After a year of not playing each other in 1932, the Lobos and Mavericks have seen each other every year since on the gridiron for the past 88 seasons as of this year. Since that 1933 meeting, Longview has defeated Marshall more often than not, to the tune of 60-24-3. Since the 1969 season, the Lobos have completedly owned the series by a 42-9 record. Longview will be looking to continue that in a stadium that it has quite a bit of success in over the years. Since Longview's first visit to the new Maverick Stadium, Longview has aquired a 15-5 record there, including an 8-1 record in their last 9 visits. It'll be a show of two teams in different spots on Friday night, with Longview look to regain some momentum and confidence following a shocking defeat to open the season, while Marshall will be looking to continue their momentum and make some history along the way in their second home game of the season.

More they were that good or y’all played that bad?

We were that bad.

Kicking situation is a mess.

Offensive line is a complete mess.

Neither sophomore QB has any confidence.

Four turnovers. 24 points off turnovers. 17 penalties. 140+ yards in penalties.

Wasted timeouts on time management.

Not catching a punt that then rolls to the 1 and then they get a safety.

Unbelievable mess in the tackling department.

Temple might be a good team, but they aren't 27 points in talent better than Longview.

Wasn’t yalls return man cramping? That’s why he let the ball go by him right? 
 

Also, I’d rather be in yalls shoes right now than ours lol

If we play against Longview like we did New Caney its going to be ugly. Too many penalties and mistakes and couldnt tackle. I lost count of how many times we were in position to make a play for loss and let the guy get loose for a big gain. If we can keep it within 2-3tds ill be happy. I would just like to see us build on the positives and improve on the negatives and escape injury free then move on to McKinney North.

The dude didn't even make an attempt to go for the ball, even if he was cramping. He moved further to get out of the way, than he would've if he just fair caught it.

I perceive Longview has had a drop in talent and Marshall is on the rise. Should be a hard fought game with Lobos winning in a close one.

Eh, it was our seniors that killed us on Friday vs Temple.

All three fumbles came from Kaden. And yes Grant threw an interception, but the game was already well in hand by Temple at that point.

Longview should still be beating Marshall, tbh. If we don't, then we have serious...serious issues.

No way Longview starts 0-2. I believe they might had caught the lobos at a bad time. 

I was saying the same thing until I looked at the final score of the Temple game. If, my Lobos had've at the very, least came into the second half with HALF the fight they came out with in the first half against Temple, I would give us the nod. And, I do mean a SLIGHT one at that! 

If, Marshall or any remaining team on our regular schedule wants to have a legitimate shot at us, just air it out on our secondary EARLY and OFTEN. As a matter of fact, I ENCOURAGE any coach or player from the opposing team that is reading this, to take EVERY opportunity you can to go down the field on us since our "new" defensive coordinator thinks it's cute to line up 90 yards off of receivers instead of challenging the opposition and playing Man vs Man (Mano a Mano)!

I know that sounds crass coming from a Lobo supporter but, I am sick and tired of this sugar, honey, ice, tea. We are either going to stand up to the challenge, DEFEND and thwart teams from putting points on the board or we can continue to get our butts lit up and embarrassed every single week. It's time to sink or swim. I can live with youth and inexperience but, I can't deal with just laying down and taking it. Hell, we could have at least asked Temple to use some Vaseline with it last week. It makes no sense to just voluntarily spread your cheeks.

Well, I am telling you right now. We got SERIOUS issues.

24 points came on turnovers. Plus two from a safety. I don't think that'll help again on Friday, but if it does....whoa buddy.

Kaden has to work on these fumbles. I can't remember him fumbling like this the last two seasons. Grant's interception wasn't a good one, since it was literally right to the guy, but game was already well in hand by that point.

But I do agree with what @jbabi86has been saying, our offensive line has go to get fixed. I know Hayden told us before the game started that we lost our starting center for the season, so who knows when that happened or how much time they had to fix things.

I really do think we'll be a better team going into Marshall, because obviously we can't get much worse, but man it was just a comedy of errors in that third quarter that just snowballed on a young team. Having two nights to sleep on things has me calmed a little more than I was the other night. And I do think these are fixable errors.

If we get 10+ penalties again on Friday though...I just...I can't take back to back seasons where 10+ penalties a night is the norm. Nothing drives me crazier.

I think this game will be interesting.  Marshall beat a pretty decent team in New Caney who has one of the top rated LBs in the country. Then you got Longview still trying to figure its way out with the young guns at QB. I'm going to hold off on a official prediction until I see tape on Marshall but right now I would think Longview is clearly the favorite.

Man I wish we could be in Longview position vs Tyler’s position , at least y’all have a chance, hell were just trying keep self from getting embarrassed lol. So I wouldn’t be complaining lol. 

I feel ya. Lufkin looks completely lost. That skull dragging on Friday was no fluke. I think a lot of our fan base is in for a rude awakening this season. Just my honest opinion. I pray I’m wrong.

We'll be fine. That 3rd quarter was the worst I have ever seen a John King coached team play, quite frankly.

I do think not having those two live quarters really hurt us. But who knows. Marshall is no doubt ready to hand us a beat down if they possibly could.

I was out and about Friday night so I DVR'd the game to watch later...  but I still haven't watched it yet. 

But I can't say I have much confidence in this one. Just hope the kids are able to turn things around and get some momentum in the right direction.
