This was beat to death on another site and perhaps here too, but I don't have time to read through previous posts. How can a program that is self-proclaimed "Legendary" and "The Mecca" let the game be close enough that they would even have to whine about the Refs? Not to mention the "Death Row" defense. SMH. It would be better to show humility and full respect for opponents.
I have no connection to either team, but by the end of that game I was so tired of seeing the ridiculous "Legendary" shirts. If you're going to proclaim it, you need to be able to back it up. Lots of teams have won back-to-back like SOC, so no, they are not "Legendary." I'll leave that title to Aledo and Carthage and I don't recall seeing them putting these labels on their shirts and hats.

Bellville RBs go have a great game and add to the stats!
DD Murray 1991 yds 11.1 yds/carry 37 TDs.
Corrian Hood 1556 yds 9.1/carry 24 TDs
Sam Hranicky 1848 yds 9.5 yds/carry 23 TDs
Those total yards and yds/carry dropped off significantly in their last two games as they came up against better competition. Yards/carry dropped from 9.2 to 6.4, still very good, but going to be tougher still against Gilmer and the passing game isn't there if needed.
Scoring / TDs also dropped significantly.
Both are to be expected. I just don't see Bellville matching up but I'm always wanting to see a slot-t team do good.
-
Going with Gordon.
-
Going with Benjamin.

Anyone remember that time Gilmer was going to donkey stomp the slot-t from Liberty Hill in the championship game? There was so much arrogance from Gilmer the week leading up to the game.
Having reminisced on that for a moment... I've never seen Bellville. Got to go with Gilmer in this one.

Keep game schedule the way it is. It has been working pretty good for a number of years and is likely the best option. Also, people are used to it and can plan well ahead to make it work for them. I'd hate for them to start tinkering with it and potentially make it worse.

yeah cuz people in El Paso and Corpus Christi and wherever should just go watch in person instead of on TV.
It's just the way it is in a state the size of Texas. There's no way to make it 100% even for everyone. Life is all about choices. You choose where to live and can choose whether to travel to see in person or watch on TV. It's the same for everyone in that regard.

I’m not just referring to smoaky.
Come on man, you know that vast majority across all sources are saying this is Timpson's game. But, that is why they play the game. I never write a team off.... unless it's a particular central Texas 2AD1 team...

I see that a lot of people have wrote the bears off again. Timpson gonna win again. This time they’ll get a nice little trophy and a ring.
A lot of people? I've seen very few and only 12 out of 80 on the poll.

Cool. Got anything to add to the discussion? If not, I ask that you and your inability to spell go to the trash talk thread while the adults talk football.

Like this... Batman, beans, chili = adults talk football for @JohnnyFootball? Yes, now I see how that Aggie education has paid off for you.

Thanks. It has, in so many ways.
Next time just learn the spelling simple words and that won’t happen.
Next time hire a decent ball coach and maybe your team will finally live up to its billing. Gotta stop shortchanging them on the pay and you'll get there.

I had to stop at an establishment in Holland a few days ago ... and again overheard a conversation between a few of what I believe were coaches saying once the Hornets take care of Shiner (done), Ganado, and Refugio they are going to give Timpson a real good whoopin'. Couldn't bring myself to say anything to them, just let them enjoy their day.

How do the Aggie faithful put up with getting dooped over and over? I don't care who is covering the ongoing pay to Jimbo, just the thought of an institution of "higher learning" exhibiting such idiocy is so nauseating, I don't know how they can put up with it?

Thanks for sharing. Glad to see that Aggie education is paying off. It's a play on pooped (dooped).

Lorena's strength of schedule looks so much better than Woodville, I think they're likely a heavier favorite than some may think. Only two losses to two quality opponents that are regular contenders in 4AD1, China Spring and La Vega. The did decent with China Spring and played La Vega to the wire. Also with wins over Franklin and Little River looks very good for them. I'm saying Lorena by 21.

I think better funding would help...many of the issues in public schools are societal issues, but that doesn't mean public schools in our state should be underfunded
Definitely not a funding issue. If I were a betting man I'd wager my right leg that we spend more dollars (inflation adjusted) per student now than we ever have, yet the results are on a downward spiral in too many schools. We've chose to focus on too many things that used to be taken care of by parents in the home and we've also chosen to build extravagant facilities in many districts. IMHO, anything funded by tax dollars should be adequate to meet basic needs. I know this is old school, but old school wasn't 30+ trillion in debt. While that's national debt, it creeps down to every level and many of our districts are in pretty deep debt too.

Rain shouldn’t be a factor this Friday
Diboll scoring 27 pts per game while giving up 11 points per game
LRA scoring 43 pts per game while giving up 30
Common opponents: Franklin
Diboll lost 28-13
LRA lost 49-28
Diboll’s 2 losses were to Franklin & MadisonvilleLRA’s 2 losses were to Franklin & Lorena
Looking at these numbers, I give the edge to LRA. I think LRA has played a much tougher schedule that has them better tested and prepared.

Sorry that games still bothers me. The three dropped passes with no defender in five yards of Dixon or Williams and the fact LH ran for 500 yards on the Dawgs.
That game gets to me worse than the El Campo loss did.Like I just said to bossman, I know Carthage is a superior program and LH was more than fortunate to get that win. All respect to the Dawgs. My annual pokes on Smokey are just for fun. While LH is more competitive than most thought they'd be in 5A with the Slot-T, they could be in for some lean years ahead with a second HS opening next year. Never know how that will impact...

I honestly didn't think about LH until you mentioned them bc they are never brought up as the Big Bother that people want to see the Dawgs play and hopefully lose to. I would gladly accept those 2 loses again if it resulted in 9 rings scattered around them. I respect LH especially after learning of the coaches illness and what they were dealing with during the week of that last matchup.
In a rare moment of total transparency, I know Carthage is a far superior program to my humble Liberty Hill Panthers. We were very fortunate to even be in the 2018 game, much less have enough luck to win. Yes, the stars had to align for LH to get that win. They'll likely never play again with the LH area growing, opening a new high school next year with both being 5A forevermore.
Also, I'm a Texas High Alum, so I enjoy seeing your coach win all that he can.

I'd start with 15k per student that would put us I believe in the top 15 in the country and put us more in line w/the national average
That's a 20% increase. Does this mean our property taxes go up 20%? I don't know enough about the system to have an answer to that, but the money has to come from somewhere and my taxes are already too high.

This dude lives off those two losses. If I recall that LH team that beat Carthage by 3 points lost to Waco La Vega, so they got the same ring that year as Carthage did....as in, not one.
It's all I've got JBizzle. Let me enjoy it. Ring or no ring doesn't matter, 2-0 matters, especially when not given a snowball's chance.

3 points is your idea of getting the brakes beat off. I don’t remember seeing Liberty Hill any any of the state championship games Carthage was in.
They were in 10 and won 9 how many was Liberty Hill in. Oh I remember they were 2 and 1. Enough said.Come on 'cowboy,' lighten up and have a little fun. Still, we both know the head-to-head is what matters. the thread is about preseason matchups and this one was glaringly missing from the long list given by bossman. Dawgs have had enough of the Panthers.

Dawgs go 3-2 and the haters go wild when the Dawgs lose2 in a row
All joking aside
Dawgs vs Henderson (just bc it’s fun watching them beating the brakes off of the cowards of Rusk County)
Dawgs vs Kilgore (always competitive)
Dawgs vs Marshall (why not)
Dawgs vs Tx High (Thanking them for Surratt)
Dawgs vs Lindale ( To prove DI is not superior to DII as someone seems to think)
Dawgs vs Argyle, La Vega or China Spring
The one matchup that is glaringly missing... Dawgs vs Liberty Hill. (just bc it's no fun watching them get the brakes beat off them by a one dimensional team)

Never done before in the inner-city? Highland Park. Same city. Eight appearances. Won five, with 3 in a row. Perhaps I'm missing something. I don't know the Dallas area very well.
