upullinmychain Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 Make it fair, bus 30 players from each opposing team, that's all they can pick from. Play four quarters an see who can beat who. Some the boys from both teams mite hafta play a little iron man ball, coaching will become evident quickly. Js 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

itmoney100 Posted December 22, 2016 Author Share Posted December 22, 2016 I am good since we finally got to play Tatum. I do however would like to play a few more 5a teams. I would settle seeing the D1 champ face the D2. Carthage vs West Orange Lake Travis vs Desota Highland Park vs Aledo Mineola vs Gunter Refugio vs Brenmond Carthage beat WOS in 2013 we are 1-0 against them. Would have liked to played them this season. Only if we had one more week off playoff football. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HearEmaGrowlin Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 I wish we could have seen end of the season 2008 Carthage versus Longview, DeSoto, Southlake Carroll, etc Dwight Smith behind that offensive line, and Si Blackshire and his receiving corp. Then add that nasty '08 Dawg defense. That team was so loaded on both sides of the ball, and again we had Dwight Smith running the football. You watch high school football today and there are no players like him. As far as this season goes I would've liked Carthage to have played WOS the week after DI and DII title games. Carthage v WOS Carthage v El Campo (to get that monkey off our back) Carthage v Argyle (playoff rivalry; always a great game) Carthage v Sweetwater Carthage v Aledo Carthage v Highland Park 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trueblue82 Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 As far as East Texas, a renewal of the Carthage/ Marshall rivalry would be cool. A few teams I'd like to see my Rams match up with: Rivercrest (I think would have been a really good game this year), Harmony (they would have probably whipped us this year, but I've always wanted to play them for some reason) and Sabine (don't ask me why). I really like matching up against teams we've never played. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiger1995 Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 Carthage vs. Aledo Highland Park vs. West Orange Stark Mineola vs Gunter Lake Travis vs Denton Ryan Abilene Wylie vs Gunter Mineola vs Brock Brock vs Arp Carthage vs Highland Park Gunter vs Brock Arp vs Brock would be a fun game. Especially if it was over the next few years while Arp is loaded. We are on a big up swing in talent right now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coach Rab Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 Carthage vs. Aledo Highland Park vs. West Orange Stark Mineola vs Gunter Lake Travis vs Denton Ryan Abilene Wylie vs Gunter Mineola vs Brock Brock vs Arp Carthage vs Highland Park Gunter vs Brock No disrespect to Carthage but Aledo would have dismantled them this year. They were a very mature team and as disciplined as Carthage. When it is 2 power programs like these 2, I would think the school with more horses in the race would get a huge edge. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We did scrimmage Marshall this year. That is a start. Maybe we can get these two programs a regular season game in coming years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pack007 Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 While Carthage still has all of this talent, I don't understand why Marshall and Carthage won't work something out... Not trying to take shots at Carthage, but I didn't see a lot of talent from this team, at least not as much as past teams that won it all. I think it was mostly coaching, a disciplined defense and a very good running back that got them to state. Maybe I'm wrong, but I still didn't see a team loaded with talent.

I think it was mostly coaching, a discipline defense and a very good running back that got them to state. Maybe I'm wrong, but I still didn't see a team loaded with talent. No offense taken. I believe most of the Carthage faithful would agree that the 2016 team is not as deep talent wise as our previous SC teams. Coach Surratt even said so many times in interviews. But I would say this team showed early that they could play at a high level in the big win over Gilmer. Us fans knew they had the potential but they just didn't always execute like teams had in the past. They took on the identity of playing to the level of their competition at times during the regular season. Once we hit the playoffs they started to believe in themselves and the rest is history! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But wait until next year! Give theses boys another year to grow and mature. The player I am most excited about is Mekhi Colbert. I think he had 8 interceptions. Had 3 defensive TD. Took the ball away from one of the top ranked recievers in the nation and took it to the house. Returned a punt for a TD. Scored on offense. He can do it all. Ingram and Gates will get all the hype, and rightfully so. But Mekhi Colbert is a bad man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HearEmaGrowlin Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 Dawgs weren't as talent rich this season as some past teams, but it's not like Surratt & Co didn't have some studs on the field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Pack made the statement that we weren't as loaded with talent as the other state champions. Me and Dawgnation just agreed with him. You gotta remember how loaded those teams were before. Just think about the recent state championship team before this one in 2013. Our players were just better than everybody else's. That team destroyed some good teams in the playoffs. In 6 games in the playoffs they out scored opponents 255-85. Including blow outs over Mexia, Navasota, Silsbee, and La Grange on the way to a championship. Only close games were WOS and Kilgore, and they were both still 2 score wins. That was a very mature team full of 3 year starters. This season just looked different than the norm in Carthage. I understand people saying that. That team in 2013 had 4 D1 players on offense alone. That's just unheard of at the 4a level. So I just see where people are coming from saying that about this years team. This was young team. But they had plenty of studs and played with more determination and grit than any team to come thru here. I think that is why so many people loved this years Carthage team. Hell they were underdogs in almost every playoff game. That is just usually not the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I totally agree we usually play Nacogdoches every year we should take them off the schedule and replace them with Marshall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
