PantherNation2015 Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 Yes sir... And prepared... For Henderson. That didn't work out so well last year though. The bye week helped us get healthy, but we lost the "edge" and it took two losses to get it back. I don't think this group will have that problem. #focused Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnjoyLife Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 It is going to be a typical season in 9-4A...you better be ready to play every Friday night. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PantherNation2015 Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 Y'all were outplayed is why y'all lost in both games. Come on Lion70. I went to bat for your Lions on the other thread and you post this! You can call last year whatever you want. BTW - how did the bye week work out in 2015 for the Lions? Same song as last year but roles were reveresed. Lions were 5-0 after big wins over Athens, Atlanta, Rusk, Newton and Dangerfield. Carthage came to town and hit your Lions right in the mouth with a 35-15 beating. I expect the same to happen this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stankylegg Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 I was just messing with you and your correct Hendo was hit in the mouth feeding off weaker competition. However, you could see the problems despite the winning that year. Castles has always scheduled a pretty "easy" pre-district. I wonder why.

blesseddaily Posted September 28, 2017 Author Share Posted September 28, 2017 Castles has always scheduled a pretty "easy" pre-district. I wonder why. Just like dancing, it takes two...it's not always as easy as making a call to schedule a game...there's times, for many reasons, that finding top quality teams to play is very difficult...don't know if that is the case here but from past experiences I know it is harder than some think. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cowboyandchrist Posted September 29, 2017 Share Posted September 29, 2017 I think Henderson versus Chapel Hill will be the better game, but I want to watch Kilgores running game. I know what the Carthage Dawg D can do, I want to see what the Kilgore run offense looks like. Palestine should be able to hold up against Kilgore for the first half.

KildogDad Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 As of now... Carthage - Looking real good Kilgore - still looking for a complete game Henderson - beat CH bad @ CH Palestine - they impressed me by not giving up and making a game of it with Kilgore. Chapel Hill - still could come around, but now they're playing catch up Center - Bullard - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carthage - Looking real good Kilgore - still looking for a complete game Henderson - beat CH bad @ CH Palestine - they are fighters Chapel Hill - still could come around, but now they're playing catch up Center - Bullard - I wouldn't say Henderson beat CH bad. They definitely beat CH, but bad is not how I would describe it. I don't think most henderson fans would say that either. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the difference was Henderson taking advantage on a handful of plays and CH failing on a handful of plays. I hope the CH boys don't hang their heads too low and get focused on a new week and new opponent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leadbrute Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 Carthage at Henderson - This week's headliner as both teams are undefeated, as they were when they met almost exactly a year ago. Henderson won that one, but Carthage won the more important game between the two the day after Thanksgiving. Most are picking the Bulldogs in this one. Prediction: CARTHAGE by 17 Chapel Hill @ Kilgore - A battle of Bulldogs. Kilgore is looking to keep its district record clean before journeying to Carthage for a big game next week, while Chapel Hill is in search of its first district win of the season. Both have talented QBs, but the Red & White Dogs seem to have the better team. Prediction: KILGORE by 14 (at least) Palestine @ Center - The winner improves its chances at a playoff spot. The Roughriders are coming off a win and are playing at home. Palestine is coming off a bad week on and off the field, and it's a long trip to Shelby County. Prediction: PALESTINE, but I could be wrong on this one Bullard is open. They need to rest, as they'll be underdogs in all five of their remaining games. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blesseddaily Posted October 3, 2017 Author Share Posted October 3, 2017 Good overview of the district games...I think the games will be closer than your point spreads but, who knows!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIONMAN Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 Henderson did what they have done the last few weeks. Jump out big in the first half then come out trying to run clock and just protect their lead. They lose momentum when they do that. Henderson was up 28-7 at half time. The score would have been worse if they would have come out and continued to keep their foot on the gas. But they didn't and they almost messed up.

I thought they were going to change the momentum of the game, but it was brief. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blesseddaily Posted October 3, 2017 Author Share Posted October 3, 2017 I was a little surprised at the Palestine/Kilgore score...didn't think it would be that close...Palestine might pull off an upset if Hendo or Carthage overlooks them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LIONMAN Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 Can't do that against Kilgore and Carthage they have too talented of a Offensive team that can easily come back I agree. Wish they wouldn't do that against anyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
