Do we qualify as east Texas? Most people think we are too close to the Trinity River. Lol. But at least we are on the east side of it. Lmao!

The score ended lopsided but we had plenty of opportunities. I think we had 5 trips inside their 20 that we didn’t score. We also chose not to punt and gave them the ball in great field position (once inside the 15). If Atl wins they will have to play their best game because I don’t see Malakoff giving the game away. I will be pulling for either team that wins this one to go all the way. Good luck to both teams. Yep. Not many teams lose when having more total yardage and first downs throughout the game. We moved the ball fine then every time around the redzone just came to a vault. Much less lose 35-7. If only we could’ve put up points off the interception going into halftime with the lead and getting ball... lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After the interception at the end of the 1st half we started at the 13 and still didn’t score. No other defense has been able to do that to us this year. Tough losing any game but I at least felt like we lost to a team that for at least that day was the better team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely don’t feel like it’s one of those games where you just flat out got whooped. Hopefully it lights a fire under the guys this off season bc the talent is as bright as it has ever been at gw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So they need to get away from Saturday games ASAP. Friday is the best night for Mally since they played last Saturday. Coaches are still finalizing their game plan this am before practicing this afternoon. Good Luck to both teams as they have beat folks they were not supposed to beat to get here. You are right. The state championship will be on a Thursday so this week doesn’t need to be put off until Saturday. The forecast has a lower chance of rain for Thursday than both Friday or Saturday. I know Malakoff played Saturday but if Malakoff is as good as the “fans” on here say they are, it shouldn’t matter what day they play. Atlanta could not do any preparation before Saturday because they didn’t know who they would be playing anyways so? The region 1 teams are playing Thursday so ever who wins between Atlanta and Malakoff will be playing on a short week next week anyways. Good luck to both teams.

Yeah after that physical game played Sat Aft at Tyler playing Sat on short rest not so much. Its not the preparation as much of advantage as it is the 2 extra days of rest for the Rabbs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Difference was that Malakoff had a couple of big plays that put points on the board and GW did not. The difference was when we stop GW 3 series in a row in the 3rd qtr and the momentum changed and crowd got into it. Never understood why wouldn't you feed Carter the ball in that qtr. He had to have over 100 yds in just the first half. Just straight passing to start the 3rd other than a couple of run plays. I think if GW had more passing plays than the handful they have, they could have moved the ball better in those situations. I agree that it was close until mid 3rd qtr.

BigBoyRabbit03 Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 I wish we could have been in 3a the last 5 years though. I believe we would have 3 state championships instead of 1. If we get past the Koff maybe we can get that second one we’re craving so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't want to be wet and cold at the same time. lol. I could careless what day we play. I'm just enjoying this weather right now and Saturday's have been great. Jmo. We've been in this situation before when we played yoe 2 years before. That game was raining hard and we were able to pull it out with a win.

OLEMAN Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 I suppose Atl is a big underdog. They can be unstoppable if they are playing to their potential. They have also had game a quality JV could have beat them. That has been their legacy the past two years. I think this Friday they overcome this mojo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In 16 we had the best underachieving team we’ve ever had. When they played good you couldn’t stop them then all of a sudden they fall apart and get in there own way. Reminds me a lot of this year but they’ve been keeping the intensity up so they have been playing a lot better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had a good shot at it in 16’ but a turnover at a costly time against a good Yoakum team ended that run. Not saying we would have won but we would have matched up better with Mineola than Yoakum did. IMO. I don’t think at the beginning of 18’ anybody expected us to be in the mix. After the two losses to Grandview and Kemp everybody forgot about us all together. But here we are and we know what we have to do going forward. I’ll admit I know hardly anything about Atlanta. But I know if our defense continues to play the way they have been we will have a chance. Good luck and safe travels to all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We usually don’t have the best line but when we do we make it deep. Our 03 team that won state was men amongst boys! Best Oline we’ve had. We was a run it Down your throat type team back then and let our RBs beat y’all. All in all Atlanta is and will probably always be a track school. We have to go to 5a track meets and a lot of the time we would win those. At one point we had 23 consecutive district champs. That’s why we talk about speed so much. This so happens to one of our slower classes imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He looks like an all around great athlete. Also looks as if they call his number quite a bit. Seems to be a tough runner. We will obviously have to keep him in check if we want to be successful.
