Series clearly does.

Look at everyone's preseason ranking prior to the season.. DCTF, FNF, whoever. NO ONE is ever 100% right at the end of the season.

Neither of these defenses are worth a damn.

You know he'll be on varsity in a few weeks. We usually bring around 5 freshmen with us on the road every year.

Yall got some open seats over there? JB sit by you right?

Got two light coats already in the car.

Which brings about this question...is HK out there?

Beat em 14-7. It's like the OPEN week changed them offensively somehow.

Last time JV loss was 2013 against Coppell Week 0. Haven't loss a district game since 2012.

Must've brought up a bit.. Cause I hear the JV took an uncharacteristic L tonight.

Surely, one of them was LB Writt.

Was it recent? You must be talking about Lathan. 2010-2012. Statistically, one of the best LB to ever wear a Lobo uniform. He was so good, despite him being undersized...D1's still took a look at him. Took many junior day visits. Last truly good LB we've had sadly. LB play use to be a very key component to Lobo defenses until recently. I'm sure the rise of spread offenses have something to do with that but when RB's are running down your throat up the middle at will, something is wrong. And it's been like that since at least 2014.

No coach tells their player to stop playing right in the middle of a play. SMH.

Meh. Keep in mind that our secondary consists of: 2 sophomores - S Lister and S/LB Starling 2 juniors - CB Harmon and S Andrews 2/3 seniors - S Webster and CB Wilson/Taylor In which Webster is the only senior that played a significant amount of varsity times over the years. With the inexperience, I couldn't possibly ask more from them. Reason why I never complain about them. Besides, they've dominated at least a half of every game this season. Only real thing they have to work on is not giving up the big play after playing so well on 1st and 2nd down. Harmon, Webster and Lister have been playing like wild banshees the entire year. Harmon shut down arguably the best receiver in the district a few weeks back, Rockwall's Sam Crawford. Wilson/Taylor (depending on who coach puts in) have both showed their ability to make plays. Wilson has several INT's and Taylor was a PBU king before his injury which pushed Wilson as our other starting CB opposite of Harmon. Believe we got Taylor back this past week. So I have no beef with them. My only beef about the defense comes from one area, the linebackers. They returned more experience than any other area on the team...yet they have played worse than any other area on the team by letting any and every RB run straight down the middle on them. Easily the worst LB play we have had in John King era. LB has been the weakest area on defense since 2014, maybe 2013 honestly. Pretty much every sack we've gotten this year has come from the defensive line or a blitzing DB. LB's are hardly anywhere to be found. That's why if I was JT, I'd just run right up the middle on us and avoid trying to get too cute. As for Timberlake, I honestly haven't seen a DB all year that can keep up with the him....he's entirely too fast and open most of the time. The problem? He doesn't always catch it. Lol reminds you of Ted Ginn at Carolina or Will Fuller at Houston. Timberlake is a great player though, very Eric Hawkins like. Him only being a junior makes it all that much better.

Pack knows what he's talking about. He saw Lufkin's non 4 star WR's smoke Nac's entire secondary Week 2. Heck believe Malik Jackson had a field day on him.

No offense, but no one in Texas secondary is doing a good job at anything. Lol As for the original question, technically is Thompson at Nac. But much like Miller at JT, he hasn't looked like 4 star talent apparently. Best DB I've seen all year is actually Longview S Traveion Wesbster. Very dominant player.

Y'all are not scoring 60. May score 30.

Yeah...two different offensive styles. I bet Longview is #1 in 11-6A in terms of offensive efficiency. We don't punt much because we score on damn near every possession it seems..which is hell on opposing teams because our style of offense allows us to kill so much clock.

lol

FYI, Polk practiced full pads today.

lol. Lose the money you won in one night.

West siidddde. Bet $300 Longview wins?

I'm scurred man. lol In all seriousness, pay the Lee graduate turned JT fan no mind....like I do.

So.. This game is: 1. Great American Rivalry Series GOTW 2. FSSW Texas DQ Big Game Of The Week 3. DCTF Game Of The Week Pretty sure the local outlets have it is GOTW as well. Safe to say there will be cameras everywhere, shaping up to be even bigger than that 05 matchup.
