CvilleTigers

Good game Timpson. That fumble on the first drive followed by a 3 and out was the worst possible start we could have had. Defensively we had no answer for the 2 D1 kids. It happens. That’s a different game if we punch it in on the first drive, but it is what it is. Timpson played good up front, but I felt like the Tiger OL was handling them well enough to sustain drives as long as we didn’t have to get out of character chasing points like what happened. 6 & 10 are special players. We had no answer for either of them. I’m not sure anyone else had more than 10 yards of offense for them, but this is championship time. I’d ride those 2 as well. Good luck bears. I’ll be pulling for you to win the whole thing.

No. Leon. I think that was 03 though.

Haha my brother in law was the center/LB on the only team to beat them that year. Actually that may have been the following year.

Yep. I was at both of those games. We played RL at Kyle field. You can actually find those games on YouTube.

Haha I forgot about that guy. Yea, he was a stud. Only played him in baseball once in a tournament. We were the unlucky team that got to see him on the mound.

Funny thing. My brother in law played against that 02 team and was actually talking about trying to tackle Foreman today. Said it was like hitting a robot made of steel. Great team. Ran 3 plays and nobody could stop it.

The Quan Cosby Mart team is the best team I’ve ever seen. The mart team when I was in school that ran out Damien Davis was also loaded. When it comes to best collection of talent at this level, the list begins with Mart. Edit to add - People older than me always say the Rodney Thomas Groveton teams are the best top to bottom of all time. But this group in Timpson is certainly special.

Well that certainly depends on how far back you go. I’ve seen some mart teams that were absolutely loaded at every position on the field. Corrigan and Rosebud Lott as well.

Same to you. Let’s enjoy a high level 2A football game tomorrow night

You are correct that nobody who plays Timpson, us included that is expecting to walk into that game thinking they will win 100%. The bears have too much talent at skill positions to have that kind of thinking.

Well the original comment was based on the history of a program. I mean, you’re certainly welcome to your opinion in however you want to shape the argument to fit it.

For sure. I’ve had good football discussions with Timpson fans. I’m not saying they are all arrogant or anything. There are a select few of them that are on every website known to man acting like football was invented 2 years ago when Bussey walked into campus. that guy is one of them.

It’s funny that people from Timpson have a talent like Bussey step onto campus and all of a sudden they are some power in football. No. You’re a flash in the pan. You’re 0-13 against Tenaha in your last 13 games. You’re not even the best program in a 50 mile radius of your town. Garrison has better history than Timpson does. oh and last I checked, losing is losing. Just because Timpson played Shiner close last year doesn’t make them any closer than we have been to winning a title in the last 10 years.

Centerville is home. Tickets must be purchased online.

I agree with you here 100%. The tigers will have to force a couple of turnovers as well. look, I’m not on here guaranteeing a win by any means. Both teams are very good at the other’s weakness. In my opinion, it’s what makes this game such an intriguing matchup. Win or lose, I expect this to be a good game. If Timpson proves to be too much for us, then I’ll be pulling for the bears the rest of the way so we can at least bring the trophy back to region 3. let’s enjoy watching kids play a game at a high level, hopefully injury free on Friday night.

I believe they are taking us serious. At least the team will be. Fans will be fans. Timpson absolutely has the firepower to put the game away early. However, if that happens it won’t be because of the skill positions. It will be due to the OL and DL dominating Centerville at the LOS. I would like to point out that Timpson is not the first team in 2A history to have D1 caliber athletes on their team like some act. It also won’t be the first time Centerville has ever been on the field with a team that deploys athletes of this caliber. Timpson wins a lot of games before it starts due to fear. This won’t be the case Friday. Centerville does not fear them and will hit them square in the mouth if Timpson isn’t ready for a dogfight. I expect Timpson to win, but will not be shocked if Centerville pulls the upset. We are a lot better than most want to believe.

But we played Jefferson and won?

Someone stated that if Timpson played CC, they would hang 40 on them by halftime…. Well Centerville did play CC and hung 35 on them by halftime while pitching a shutout. Here’s the deal with this game. It’s going to go one of 2 ways. Timpson is either going to stop Centerville and get up a few scores or they’re not. If they don’t, this game can go either way and the team who wins the turnover battle wins the game. Nobody that is actually from Centerville denies how good Timpson is. They respect the Bears. I have a feeling that when the clock hits 0 Friday night, win or lose, Timpson will feel the same about the Tigers. These boys in Centerville HIT.
