DeSoto vs Summer Creek - 6A Div. II State Championship
MoveTheChain replied to Crawford's topic in High School Sports
One of a few times that the Buckeyes were not able to match up well or rise to the occassion and run with the Dawgs. Hey, it happens. Especially if you routinely play great teams. Just bound to happen some years. Glad to pass the crown on to another unfortunate team. That Carthage-over-Gilmer score remains with us forever though. -
Congratulations to Timpson. Special and memorable team and a GREAT player in Bussey. Enjoy your State Championship! You guys are fun to watch.

Pinning the Bears deep with the punts is backfiring for the Rattlers.

SE Texas + NE Texas = East Texas, unless my math is wrong. However, when most(?) of us visualize East Texas, what we really "see", in our own little world, is NE Texas. Go ask folks in PN-G or maybe even Lufkin and the geography would probably be flipped and they would claim to be the "real" East Texas and us pretenders are really from NE Texas.

STATE FINAL 4AD2 - Gilmer vs Bellville
MoveTheChain replied to kingwolf's topic in High School Sports
Yes, our young defensive linemen would often be standing straight up, watching the play and after the play look around, bewildered, like what happened. Things finally clicked and they now understand their assignments. Much different defense now. Should be a good battle between both teams on Friday. -
Wow! Just when we were all getting over the couple of knuckle-headed PG posters on Facebook, wanting the UIL to look into officiating at the Carthage/PG game, now somebody is able to top it. Hilarious, thread!!! My only wish for Christmas is that there was a "UIL" to report our Gilmer Broadcast Crew to, for over-the-top homerism. Well, maybe not, they are entertaining, if nothing else, much like this thread.

Need to pressure the GR QB and challenge the receivers at the line of scrimmage. Glen Rose has a great passing game. We have to eliminate our turnovers. This is the time of year where turnovers keep you from advancing (C-Dawgs can relate). Do not gift the other team extra chances on offense. Have to let our defense catch their wind and get some quick coaching up on the sideline, rather than keeping them on the field excessively.

Game reminds me of 2005. #1 Gilmer knocked out by Liberty-Eylau. LE had either 3 or 4 losses to start their season (similar to Gilmer this year). How could LE possibly hang with the unbeaten Buckeyes. Nobody thought it was possible, but LE showed up and showed out, when everyone said Gilmer was unbeatable and already expecting the Buckeyes to easily pick up their 2nd State Championship.

Probably not near enough, but it comes down to matchups, sometimes. We expect Carthage to win, but that ain't stoppin us from also expectin the Buckeyes to give it their best effort and hope for some lucky breaks. Playoffs have a way of giving us unusual winners and losers at times and maybe this will be one of those times for us to steal a win from the Dawgs. Gotta see how it plays out, but yeah, Carthage should win.

Aubrey has a speedy #1, just like Gilmer. Their #1 is not quite as fast, but probably faster than anyone we have seen yet. He gets around end, he is gone, just like our #1. We need to contain better than in the first half of last week's game and then not let them open up the middle of our defense. Yeah, right, like our defense is gonna magically shut down another team, especially in the playoffs. We will have to be happy, to just survive another week, if we are lucky and luck factors into a lot of playoff games.

Upset special tonight, Dallas, Carter over Stephenville
MoveTheChain replied to TCU44's topic in High School Sports
Sunnyvale beat Carter, but after seeing Sunnyvale last night, I could see Stephenville maybe having some trouble with Carter. -
I think their coach had to give him some breathers, cause our defense absolutely wore him out, letting him run wild, with big, long runs around the ends, in the first half and right up the middle in the second half. Anybody get his rushing stats? Seems like he may have run for 200 yards. We were sure thankful, every time they sent in #16, to give our defense a breather. Peterson (#1) is just a sophomore.
