Sonora always tough. Figured they had this one in the bag.

Congrats Centerville

Centerville takes it.

Is the pot stirring fueled by Waskom's multiple championships and Arp's inability to get there? It's a hard thing to make a championship game, most will never get there. Sometimes it seems it's like unlocking a mindset and once a team/town can do that, they start believing they belong there and they show up in a championship occasionally even when everything and everybody doesn't think they had what it takes to be there... i.e. Yoe, Bremond, Lake Travis, etc.

My sources say Strong will be back next year regardless of the outcome on these last two games.

For those that believe "ten dollars per credit hour up to 15 hours isn't too much to ask," I'm sure the university will gladly accept your additional $150 donation without everyone else that doesn't agree having to involuntarily contribute to the athletic program.

Not understanding why the hate on "just Waskom." Looks like they've taken care of business winning those back-to-back championships. I sat on their side at the first one and thought their fans were pretty classy. The only time I remember them getting a bit full of themselves was the year just prior to that, their last year in 2A, when they had a lot of smack talk just prior to getting the beat down of all beat downs at NRG by a south Texas team. That game against Refugio looked like a Pop Warner team showed up to play the Texans. Wouldn't have seemed half as bad if they hadn't hyped themselves so much leading up to that one. I remember looking forward to one heck of a matchup, but left feeling like Waskom should refund half my ticket price.

I would typically be inclined to agree regarding 'until Yoe goes down, you just about have to pick them,' but not this year. They're not the same, so I'm not seeing that hold true this year.
-
Looking out a few weeks, which east TX team has the best shot at taking out Refugio? Gotta have a superb O-line or Refugio will be in our backfield all day from what I'm hearing. Can likely get it done with just a solid defense as their offense doesn't appear to be what it has been.

I'll take Arp in this one, as New Waverly just can't get it done. Next week likely against Crockett, a toss up. Doesn't matter who wins that one, they'll be done in week 4, but still a very good season.

Bremond in a blowout.

I'm definitely pulling for Yoe to prove me wrong and keep winning. I realize the China Spring loss doesn't tell us a lot because CS is near the top of 4AD1...they may well take it all. But, having seen Yoe in person the last two seasons and then seeing them this year, my take is there is substantial fall-off in the talent level. They'll be back in the coming year(s). I just don't see them getting out of their Region this year.

Waskom

Not from Woodville so don't know who they've beat. Just saw someone ask what good teams Woodville had beaten, so thought I'd inquire about Yoe's competition. The beat downs by China Spring and Rockdale seem to indicate Yoe isn't a real contender this year.
I'm not sold on Gatesville, they didn't even make the playoffs and would get beat by a lot of decent 3A teams and some of the top 2AD1 teams. Bellville, perhaps a decent win, but not real sure on that one either. Franklin out in the first round of playoffs, but probably Yoe's best win?

The Yoe fans must have fallen off some this year, even at home, because they weren't 3 to 5 deep on the fence and staying until the final whistle blew against China Spring. Same at Rockdale; they started off solid, but started leaving about halfway through the third quarter.

Who are the good teams Yoe has beaten?
Woodville (10-1) vs Cameron Yoe (9-2)

Wouldn't hang my hat or my football prognosticating on that comparison. You always have to look under the surface.
The 4 4A schools that Franklin beat have a combined 20-24 record, the bottom 3 of those 4 with a 12-21 record. Also, 3 of them lost in first round and were only there due to the number of teams that get into the playoffs. Those three didn't even have winning records entering the playoffs, i.e. Navasota 2-8. The one somewhat decent 4A team Franklin beat was Lorena and I would contend Lorena was still healing up after starting off with a brutal first two games against China Spring and La Vega. The only quality win Lorena has on the year is against Robinson, all the others, even the playoff win against Gonzales (5-6) were nothing to write home about.
