What years were Gilmer in the SC game with Metzel? I thought this was his only appearance as a HC?
Lost in 2020 & 2021 to Carthage & China Spring, respectively.

#1 for Gilmer best individual performance I've witnessed in a while.
I'm not sure about week in and week out but today he looked like the best back in 4a.
He was definitely the X factor.
I repeat: is he a junior (as indicated in today’s telecast) or a senior (as shown in the program for last week’s Glen Rose game)?

That redzone turnover by Bellville looms huge, settling for a FG likely the difference here
Would they have been able to kick a field goal? They missed one of their extra point attempts.

Is Will Henderson a junior (as shown on today’s telecast) or a senior (as shown in the program for last week’s Glen Rose game)?

Congratulations to the Buckeyes. Have done a great job of turning things around since losing to Pleasant Grove. Best of luck next week against another team that has turned things around after a tough start.
I’m sure this loss will provide plenty of incentive to the young players from Carthage as they work to start yet another long winning streak. The last 3 losses by this program were followed by winning streaks of 40 (2016-2018), 41 (2019-2021), and 29 (2022-2023). So it can be done…get your heads up and go back to work, Bulldogs. You have many fans who look forward to watching you go after it with all you’ve got.

We don’t really know the answer to that statement because PG chose to run their QB 35 times vs letting their two RB’s have the ball. #1 McFadden picked up a TCU offer this week after TAMU hired the Duke Coach.
What were the PG QB’s rushing stats last week?

And I thought Carthage had a couple of sophomore linemen starting, Am I wrong on that?
Sophomores start at QB & RB. The backup RB (with a senior out again with an injury) who scored the winning TD last week is a sophomore, as is a TE/receiver who has been a big contributor while playing in certain packages. One of the 2 sophomores who start at OLB also plays some offense as a TE/receiver in some packages. The other starting sophomore OLB is either the leading or 2nd leading tackler on the team. Two sophomores also start in the secondary. In addition, a talented sophomore WR has missed most of the season with an injury.
Other sophomores are backups who have gotten limited action before games became blowouts and a great deal more time after games became decided.

If indeed Carthage moves to Region 3 the next 2 years, perhaps these two teams will resume playing non-district games against each other. After last week’s game, it would be mighty interesting.

I'm thinkin 8 played each other each year since and twice in 2020
My research this morning reveals that you are correct.
Does anyone remember the score of the 2021 game in Carthage? I attended but don’t remember the score.

How many times have these 2 teams met since then?

Bellville is on a collision course with Carthage and they will provide a stiffer challenge than what Wimberly offered last year.
That’s a safe statement.

I'm thinking 13 was first year can't remember honestly when they presplit but our last year in it was when we won state in 19
Carthage also played in the Division I playoffs in 2007 (Coach Surratt’s 1st year) and 2012. Lost to eventual (and defending) state champion Liberty Hill in the former and in the state semifinals to El Campo in the latter.

#1 ranked DT in the state if I’m not mistaken, they also use him at DE and move him around a good bit. I believe he also run a 4.7-4.8 40, that’s great but I’d be more interested in the 10 yard split.
Has an offer from Alabama, among others

Hard to tackle - first half into a little of the 2nd.
Easier to tackle - after he got tired from playing offense, defense a lot, and I think some special teams.I noticed he was on the kickoff team at least once, which probably means he was on it for all 6 kickoffs by PG.

Carthage averages 6 TDs (43 points) a game.
Gilmer averages giving up 5 TDs (35 points) a game.
That seems to indicate that Carthage will score at least its average Friday.

Colbert was a dude on both sides of the ball!
He did an amazing job in the 2016 playoffs at WR after playing almost exclusively on defense in the regular season.

Just my view - 2 games in The Star were wild/crazy games that in my view, Carthage didn’t play their best.
But against Waco LV, in my view, LV had just as athletic linemen but bigger and as good or better skill guys…..But Carthage played a great game(along with coaching) and won.Maybe 3 wild & crazy?
2016 state semifinal: CHS 26, China Spring 20 - 2 OTs; China Spring missed a FG on the last play of the 1st OT (or regulation) that would have won it for them
2018 regional semifinal: CHS 50, Midlothian Heritage 49 - OT; CHS had to score on the last play of regulation to send it to OT; game ended on a successful CHS 2-point conversion
2022 state semifinal: CHS 42, Glen Rose 35; Turnovers (and a great option QB) nearly did the Bulldogs in, but in the end a Glen Rose fumble opened the door to victory for the Bulldogs

My guess is The Star in Frisco or Denton. Hopefully all 4 coaches agree on The Star and get it locked down about Monday.
If Carthage is 1 of the 2 teams playing at The Star, look for an agonizingly close game. That seems to be the only type of game CHS plays there.

The winner of this game will meet the winner of the Glen Rose-Canyon West Plains game. Canyon is more than 500 miles from either Carthage or Gilmer.
Where would that semifinal game be played if Canyon West Plains wins Region 1? Wichita Falls?

This is hard to figure. Tennison appeared to this Carthage fan to be an outstanding high school QB last December in the regional championship game. Not very many kids who can play that position that well don’t want to play it. I would guess he’s looking ahead to college ball, but he should enjoy his senior year of high school football IMHO. There will be plenty of time for college football later.
