Lion1996 Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 Lovelady lost I think 13 seniors from last year. Which is a ton when we really have D2 numbers. We had a really good jv last year and they seem to be getting better each week. But it almost a completely different Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trueblue82 Posted September 14, 2017 Author Share Posted September 14, 2017 How different are these two teams than they were a year ago?Joaquin lost our two starters at RB (from week 3 of last year, one of them tore his ACL in week 4) who both started at ILB as well. We also graduated a standout DE, and the best OL in our district. We lost several good kids, including a TE/ DE, SE/ DB, and a DL that is now playing for McMurry State. So we look quite different as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lion1996 Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 Our line is bigger but are smaller at linebacker. 15 that blew up your two point conversion in the first game is gone. And 10 both were good on both sides of the ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trueblue82 Posted September 14, 2017 Author Share Posted September 14, 2017 I can't think of a faster team.1942, we would have been really fast, until Pearl Harbor happened. Our best RB dropped out of school in January, thumbed a ride to Center, lied about his age and enlisted in the Marines. He fought in the Battle of Iwo Jima. He was there when they raised the flag. In 2000, Joaquin ISD presented honorary diplomas to 4 men that didn't finish high school because they enlisted to fight in WWII. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hagar Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 We've talked about restaurants let's get to the good stuff what boat do I need to go to and is there a lucky slot machine I need to sit at. Lucky slots are as scarce as hens teeth (I've spent quite a bit researching this lol). Go to Sports betting and bet on the Rams. I'm pretty sure they'll beat the spread. They have so many fast kids, you can't corral them all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you see a 100' wall 30' tall papered with $100 bills, that should be a red flag that the odds are not in your favor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solono Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 How different are these two teams than they were a year ago? Small Sr. class. Young team, inexperienced secondary. Didn't see the usual difference-maker players they normally have (no real studs). I also understand their starting QB was out the first two games and maybe for a bit longer. Not as fast as they usually are. Pretty well coached. The kind of team you can expect to get better as the season goes on. Still don't think they'll be able to hang with Groveton or Centerville this year. They will probably finish anywhere from 3-7 to 6-4, depending on how their youngsters progress.
