cujoforlife Posted May 7, 2015 Author Share Posted May 7, 2015 This is a great idea, guys in setx are always talking about the water vs the woods, I can't recall too much recent history between the two areas, hadn't seen this particular matchup since we played Ozen in Nac The only team that JT has played from down there is PAM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aggie98 Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 Kilgore played CC-Flourbluff last season at Galena Park-Northshore on a Saturday in week 2. Will be doing the same this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coach Rab Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 All the games would need to be in central East Texas. Longview is to far north. Where would we draw the line to from here over is East Texas. Houston is in east Texas, or can do only the east side of Houston. Houston is its own area. They can't claim the east! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

somebodydonetoldyouwrong Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 Chill Played PNG last year in Lufkin and will do it again this year, Tatum played Sour lake Hardin Jefferson, and of course Gilmer played WOS in state. Carthage played Little Cy mauriceville and El Campo. There is history between the two areas but usually only during playoff time would be great to see it during the season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TempoSavesLives Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 How bout we add to this thing and make Lufkin be a SETX representative since they really are in that region.  Texas High vs Lufkin Longview vs Port Arthur Memorial John Tyler vs. Crosby Sulphur Springs vs. PNG Marshall vs. Nederland Whitehouse vs. Beaumont Central Carthage vs W-OS Gilmer vs Silsbee Chapel Hill vs Jasper Atlanta vs. Newton Mineola vs Kirbyville White Oak vs San Augustine  Create 3 sites to host the 12 games (4 games at each site) Sam Houston State, SFA, and Longview HS or Rose Each site hosts a game on Thursday night (7pm), 1 game on Friday night (7:30) and 2 games on Saturday (2:00 & 7:30)  @ Longview HS Atlanta vs Newton (Thurs) Mineola vs Kirbyville (Fri) Chapel Hill vs Jasper (Sat 2pm) Texas High vs Lufkin (Sat 7pm)  @ SHSU Carthage vs W-OS (Thurs) Sulphur Springs vs PNG (Fri) Gilmer vs Silsbee (Sat 2:30) JT vs Crosby (Sat 7pm)  @ SFA Marshall vs Nederland (Thurs) Whitehouse vs Beaumont Central (Fri) White Oak vs Buna (Sat 2pm) Longview vs PA Memorial (Sat 7pm) There's your suggestions taken into consideration... Primetime games moved to Saturday and SA was removed and I added Buna who is 22 students larger than WO.  As far as including Houston teams?? No, we said NETX vs. SETX no where in there is Houston the only somewhat "Houston" team is Crosby and if that's "too Houston" for you we can add Vidor or Dayton in there spot, I just thought Crosby/JT would be a better game.  Longview (IMO) is the 3rd best option for a stadium, it has a large enough capacity to house a big crowd and the schools that I scheduled there are fairly equidistant from Longview. Inevitably there's going to be a team that travels farther than the other... It is what is it, it only means one team misses one or 2 more classes that day and rides a bus for another 45-75 mins.  If there's another 8 teams that need to play in this battle of East Texas we can add a site at Lufkin or possibly @ Lamar University  Let's hear your other suggestions!

TempoSavesLives Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 My other interesting match-ups would be  Coldspring vs. New Boston Corrigan Camden vs. Leonard Joaquin vs. Waskom Brookshire Royal vs. Gladewater  Beaumont WB vs. Tyler Lee LCM vs Kilgore Sealy vs. Athens Center vs. Van  Of the matchups above I think Beaumont WB vs Tyler Lee would be the primetime game on Saturday night, then you add Coldspring/New Boston on Thursday Ozen /Chapel Hill on Friday and then pick one of those other games to be saturday at 2 and play those 4 games at Abe Martin Stadium in Lufkin. (why I didn't take your advice on New Caney's new stadium, while it is definitely very nice and appealing, that is until you figure that you'd have to include their 2 football programs in this classic (most likely) in order to play in their stadium and they are 1) both Houston and 2) neither one of them has been any good  I also think I would change the Chapel Hill/Jasper match-up to Beaumont Ozen vs. Chapel Hill (they can play at the 4th site) Jasper vs Liberty-Eylau (have them meet at Longview) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TempoSavesLives Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 So has JT and Tyler Lee but y'all seem to keep playing that one... It's okay to play a team twice every 5-10 years or so. It can still be a good matchup. When WB beat Lee back in 10/11 Lee was WAY down... they went 3-19 over those 2 years. Lee is the 4th best (at best) "big" school in East Texas, JT, Longview, and T High all better in recent history so they get to play the 4th or so best "big" school from Southeast Texas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TempoSavesLives Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 Yes, but JT and Lee has to play each other because they are in the same city. For the longest time in the same district. There is no rule that says 2 teams "must" play each other because they are in the same city. But I understand what you were saying, I was just pointing out that because one team played another team 7(or so) years ago doesn't mean they can't play again. May have been a bad example in your eyes but then you look at a a place like Lubbock where all 4 teams rarely play each other, the same goes for Wichita Falls, San Angelo, Longview, & Pflugerville. I am sure there are more those are just the ones that I could come up with off the top of my head. Same district = yes they HAVE to play, same city --> no they don't. What do you think will be the chances they are in back in the same district this time next year??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fiftysix Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 IMO, with these "classics" or whatever you want to call them with several games at one location, it would be better for the fans at least if they didn't play the same team twice back to back years. They're playing at a neutral site anyway, so it's not like anybody would be getting screwed out of a home game.. So like if JT and Longview were both playing in something like this, the second year they could swap opponents... Just a thought Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So like if JT and Longview were both playing in something like this, the second year they could swap opponents... Just a thought   I like that idea! Here is what I have came up with... We call it the East Texas Civil War! 2015 sites and matchups are as follows  @ Longview HS Atlanta vs Newton (Thurs) Mineola vs Kirbyville (Fri) Chapel Hill vs Jasper (Sat 2pm) Texas High vs Lufkin (Sat 7pm) @ SHSU Carthage vs W-OS (Thurs) Sulphur Springs vs PNG (Fri) Gilmer vs Silsbee (Sat 2:30) JT vs Crosby (Sat 7pm) @ SFA Marshall vs Nederland (Thurs) Whitehouse vs Beaumont Central (Fri) White Oak vs Buna (Sat 2pm) Longview vs PA Memorial (Sat 7pm) @ Abe Martin (Lufkin) New Boston vs. Coldspring-Oakhurst (Thurs) Chapel Hill vs. Beaumont Ozen (Fri) Kilgore vs. LCM Tyler Lee vs Beaumont West Brook (Sat 7pm) (I think these are right... may be a typo somewhere in there) 2016 Sites and matchups are as follows (pending realignment) @ Longview HS Chapel Hill vs Jasper (Thurs) Texas High vs Beaumont Central (Fri) New Boston vs Newton (Sat 2pm) Tyler Lee vs Lufkin (Sat 7:30) @ SHSU Kilgore vs. LCM (Thurs) Sulphur Springs vs Crosby (Fri) Mineola vs. Kirbyville (Sat 2pm) Whitehouse vs. Nederland (Sat 7:30) @SFA Liberty-Eylau vs. Beaumont Ozen (Thurs) Marshall vs PNG (Fri) Atlanta vs Coldspring-Oakhurst (Sat 2pm) Longview vs Beaumont Westbrook (Sat 7:30) @ Abe Martin Carthage vs. Silsbee (Thurs) Gilmer vs W-OS (Fri) White Oak vs. Buna (Sat 2pm) John Tyler vs Port Arthur Memorial (Sat 7:30) yes there are some travel issues but it is what it is! everybody has to get on a bus at some point! This would be an awesome kickoff to the next 2 football seasons in all of east Texas!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
centex1 Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 Tatum and Newton are playing this year in Newton week 1. So no big time or part or a series but should be a good game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
