Everide2016 Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 I know they're out of area, but will be facing San Augustine next week. Game starts at 3:30 today. Who takes this one? I think Mason can take it if their outstanding QB (Otto) plays a super game and if they can get in Refugio's head early. But, if Mason lets Refugio get into an early groove, it's over for Mason. Also, despite all the criticism over the years, Refugio can coach like nobody's business. They will have an exceptional game plan, depends on execution. Another factor that is kind of new to those of us who haven't seen it yet is the Refugio QB Ochoa. He had an incredible game against Shiner with over 300 yards rushing and I think 200+ passing, accounting for 6 TDs. I have only seen him play one game against Thorndale and he was very solid, but I didn't see this coming, the way he took it to Shiner. I saw Refugio play against Mart and they were playing a tall thin Freshman at QB in that game. That kid played a little against Thorndale in the second round and he made some moves that were very impressive running the ball and also through a few nice ones. I watched Mason play Milano in first round (I think). It was impossible to gauge them because Milano was so small and overmatched. Based on simple looks/athleticism, they were impressive. Any San Augustine faithful trekking to this one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattStepp Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 Refugio is rolling since switching back to the spread last week they finally let Ochoa take all the snaps.....he probably should have been the QB all along...hell he was newcomer of the year in Class 5A as a sophomore in 2017...Refugio has kind of a mental thing on Mason so I'll be surprised to see the Punchers win 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bystander76 Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 Wish I was going Ride, but I have to work and have a weekend full of activities already. Have a good friend in Refugio that is going to keep us posted. He called me early to congratulate us on the victory last night. I know they are very anxious to get thru this game, as they truly believe that the winner of next weeks game whether it be them, Mason or us will be the State Champion in a couple of weeks. One thing you can always count on is that Refugio will be ready to play. There are no average teams left in the playoffs, they have all proven they belong and Refugio does that year in and year out. I won't make a prediction in this one, but I just hope it's a good, clean, injury free game for both teams. These are high school kids that we are rooting for and they deserve the absolute best out of us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YourKillinMePetey Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 I too would love to see Mason win. Both programs have had success so I hope it will be a good game for the kids. Refugio is really hard to keep up with but I think San Augustine would have a better matchup against Mason. If nothing else Mason has the better mascot.

StingEmALTO Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 I feel like Refugio takes this. All the hype surrounding Mason as the #1 and the early season losses when Refugio was still trying to find its identity makes me think Refugio has something to prove, and they are really good at doing that. Their offense is clicking and they seem to have the hoodoo on Mason. Would love to see the Punchers PUNCH their ticket to the SA game, but I think it’s a tall task. We’ll see this afternoon!

upullinmychain Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 Not sure Refugio is as powerful up front as they normally are, and they’ll need to be to take mason down...could be an extraordinary game in the closeness of the score. Good luck to both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No they will not come back....too may pentalties and mason is taken advantage of it. Mason is running and passing on them with no problem.That is why they are 13-0 I'm watching on texanlive.

Easttxmaniac Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 Personally i think SA can be in the game with both Refugio and Mason. Will be a tough game just think SA this year has better lines Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob123 Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 With Mason's QB being ejected this could change the whole scheme of things now. Close possible imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
