Most dominant HS team ever?

[unclejohn]

Are they better than the 89 team just curious.

 

 

The 2011 Bulldogs?

[unclejohn]

Show me anywhere on this thread that I or anyone else said that Daingerfield would beat the upper class schools. Our argument has been that the word Dominate means that they Dominated their opponents more than any school in Texas High Schools have ever dominated their opponents.

 

That is what is frustrating about this thing, the only way to compare teams across classes is to see how the did against their own classification. It doesn't mean that Daingerfield is better than any 5A team, only a fool would believe that! But to also blindly say, as Wolfie did, that Daingerfield '83 couldn't beat a 1-9 Lee team this year is naive also.

 

I also think it is misguided when someone who isn't old enough to remember 83 to have an opinion on it. I understand that in the 20's Abilene and Waco had some dominate teams, but you know what, My Dad wasn't even alive then so I have no opinion on them.

 

I can only offer opinions of what I have actually seen, so I don't get how you or Wolfie can discredit Daingerfield when you didn't see them? Sure make a case for all these modern teams, but when people who have seen the modern and the past offer their differing opinion, don't act all shocked. They have seen both and are better qualified to make the comparison.

 

 

Once again I'll say DField is the most dominate.......taken with a grain of salt also though.......

[unclejohn]

Unclejohn, if you combine Gilmer, Carthage and Henderson they would beat most 5-a teams including my Lobos. Give us Tatum and it would be a different story in my opinion. Thats 3 very good 3-a programs combining into one.

 

 

You combine us Tyler boys CH and JT and we woop all of y'all. :D

[OLEMAN]

Heck. The record and other stats should be the answer. All other opions are ####. I hope you have enough sence to seperate 1a from 5a. Lol

[LilEagle]

.. Because I haven't coached at every level of football on every continent? Please spare me the lecture. I know plenty, but only the RIGHT people on this board know and realize that, which is perfectly fine by me.

 

 

I'm blinded by anything that's not 5A? How so. Did Longview not spend two seasons down in 4A? Now, you can make a case on lower classifications if you want. However, those people brought it upon themselves. I acknowledge greatness, but it seems like every time a lower classification school wins a championship in ET, it turns into "we can beat Longview, Lufkin, Lee and JT". I've said it hundreds, maybe thousands of times on this board. I only lack respect for smaller classfications in ET, because of the reasons I just listed.

 

Sad thing is, living in Northwest Houston, I've never heard anyone from Refugio say that they can beat The Woodlands for whatever reasons. Is that just an East Texas thing?

 

There are maybe two or three that have ever said that a 3A or lower could beat a good 4A or 5A school. You classify the rest of us because of what they have said. If your logic is correct, then everyone on the board would hate Longview because of you and maybe 1 or 2 other posters. But that is not the case. Many, including myself want to see Longview do well. But if you keep poking the little brother, then eventually he will get tired of it and fight back.

I agree with you, I have always pulled for the Lobos and have gone and watched them play if Tatum or Carthage was not playing, but with some of these Lobo posters, I find my self thinking I don;t care if they ever win a title. East Texas should support evey team unless your team is playing them.

[32dive]

Will I agree? No but can understand the feeling(see 2010). :)

So you believe CH would have won against a DeSoto or even an Aledo?

[unclejohn]

This question has nothing too do with your original question which was would I agree that the best team didn't win. CH didn't play Aledo or Desoto so can't answer a question that makes zero sense. :)

[SnakeBit]

I put in every team against the 83 Tigers and they all came up short.

 

 

70-60

 

Game Recap- The 1983 Daingerfield Tigers got the best of the 2004 Gilmer Buckeyes in a very close battle. The 2004 Gilmer Buckeyes played a very hard fought game but just fell short in the end. All in all, the fans did get to see a lot of scoring in this game.

 

Fun website to see what could have been. I know it is not accurate but at least it has a system to get the results.

Try Seal Tigers 1995 @ Sealy. Uh oh, DF loses one.

[Eagleborn]

I must admit, it was exhilarating going back and reading some of these post.

[Justafannow]

Try Seal Tigers 1995 @ Sealy. Uh oh, DF loses one.

On a neutral sight DField pulled it out in the last second, winning 75-74

 

HA!

[goose53]

No contest, go look at the film on them, they were big, fast, quick, and just plain good. I saw them play and I am 56 years old. I have missed maybe 10 friday nights of watching high school football. They were the best I have ever seen. A once and a life time team at the high school level.

I saw all but one (I think) and when you go with only one score ALLYEAR that is awsume.in Texas.Unbeaten and unscored on was the best that could be. The playoffs have the best.Dfield went thru the playoffs ,I think the totals were like 40+ to oooooo.They had it all.In fact they had to much.Some running avgting 10+ per carry had to bee moed to line backer.lol

[gtee2]

Wow! Our '08 team was crushed by 83 Tigers

[KrookedWolfe]

No doubt the 83' Dfield Tigers. The Tigers were also good in 84'State Finalist, ***85'State Champs***,86' Quarter finalist (lost to Jefferson) 87' Quarter finalist lost to L-K, and 88' Quarter finalist lost to Southlake Carroll. History lesson.

[jefferson4life]

Hard to say, times and athletes have changed.

 

 

Sorry fellow Jeffersonian, i would have to disagree. I think this team would whip alot 5A teams rear end today. Lets not even mention 3A and 2A schools. It would be like Longview playing Leveretts Chapel. I usually say that when I watch old college and NFL games, but this Daingerfield team is a different story. These guys were actually big,fast and athletic like todays teams. This team was special and will always be special

[KrookedWolfe]

Yes we scored 37 pts 2010 Henderson Lions but gave up 60 lol.

 

:blush:

[Adictatorofacoach]

The 1919 Union Grove High School Lions. 12-0 Had no one score on them.

[spakastu]

1943 New Boston went 10-0 and didn't give up a pt the whole season

[bluetiger114]

No doubt the 83' Dfield Tigers. The Tigers were also good in 84'State Finalist, ***85'State Champs***,86' Quarter finalist (lost to Jefferson) 87' Quarter finalist lost to L-K, and 88' Quarter finalist lost to Southlake Carroll. History lesson.

 

We actually lost to LK in the Area round in '87, 21-17. Finished the "down" year with a record of 9-2-1. The only other loss was to 4a Carthage 10-9 and the tie was to 4a Henderson 27-27.

[Allheartnoquit]

Can't compare a 1983 team to any team now Idc what anyone says in 1983 u ran the ball now u throw the ball lake Travis just to name One would split 5 wide an throw all day long. SLC of the early 2000's do the same.

 

But u are saying most dominate I would agree with you that's a far assessment of that team in that ERA but not EVER bc the game changes to much the athletes change to much since then to say they could touch any air raid teams!
