#2 Gunter vs #1 Franklin 3A Div II State Championship
jimmyw replied to wingtveer's topic in High School Sports
I have much RESPECT for both schools but I think this is Franklin's year. -
West Orange Stark 17 to 14. I always pull for our neighbors unless we are playing them.

Newton is pretty good but they don't have 4 D1 players like3 or 4 years ago.. They are good enough to win with their stud running-back ( I think 25+ offers including Texas & USC) and a descent passing game. Newton as usual has a stout defense but any given nite Newton could pull a Childress. Truth hurts .JS

This game could be close, DeKalb has a impressive offensive line with a strong running back. If my Eagles take them lightly it will cost them. I do think my Eagles will win but in a close game and they need to get the extra point business worked out.

I have thought all year that Canadian was the best of the rest. I do hope Franklin can make a game of it but one dimensional teams are a defensive coordinator dream. If Franklin doesn't throw on first down some, it will be a long nite for the Lions. Two quality teams but one is senior loaded and the other rather young. Canadian should win by at least 21 points

I agree mostly, one bad call by officials in Daingerfield cost us that game but that part of life, I mean referees are human also but Newton was pretty salty last year also and very young this year. Gunter and Canadian are quality proven programs with good sportsmanship and since I like both schools, I don't have a favorite-they are both well coached and extremely good.

Do you really think they would have beaten Newton in 2017 or 2018. Newton was loaded and beat Gilmer in 2018-4a div 2, West Orange -Stark 4 a div 2 in 2018, beat Silsbee 4a div 2 in 2017 and 2018 and all 3a div 2 teams them two years.

I meant to say they seem to win every other year. Just ole mind not finishing his thought process.

I have to go with Canadian simply because these two seem to beat each other year. They are well coached and offensive line's technique are really good. Both defensive lines are solid. It will be a war in the trenches with hard hitting everywhere, yet good sportsmanship on both teams. Pleasure to watch.
