Unfortunately for Liberty Hill, Crosby and all 5a in the southeast Texas area are very familiar with this offense. Vidor has run this offense very well for more than a decade. I think this familiarity along with a superior offense give Crosby a 14+ advantage. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagleborn Posted January 3, 2021 Share Posted January 3, 2021 717 yards rushing last night. Half of that will seriously limit Crosby’s offense. Pulling for slot T mafia. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EazyMoney Posted January 3, 2021 Share Posted January 3, 2021 I read somewhere that Liberty Hill had only thrown 12 passes all year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackShirtD Posted January 3, 2021 Share Posted January 3, 2021 I think this will be a high scoring affair. I think LH plays keep away as much as possible. Crosby will need to score on pretty much every possession to pull out the win. Final thoughts LH 47 Crosby 45 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HearEmaGrowlin Posted January 3, 2021 Share Posted January 3, 2021 Pioneer Veterans nor LH seem to have much of any real athleticism on the field. The PV defense looked like 9th graders and were SLOW. I’m thinking Crosby will defend that offense way better than the very athletically deficient PV.

Mavchamp Posted January 3, 2021 Share Posted January 3, 2021 While it was a very entertaining game...... the region IV final was devoid of defense. And THAT will ultimately be LH's downfall IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hagar Posted January 3, 2021 Share Posted January 3, 2021 Despite the fact many don’t know it, or acknowledge it, often Football is similar to Basketball based on, it’s all about matchups. Yes, Crosby probably has the best D LH has played, but historically, Crosby has trouble with the Slot T. While in the 5A District, including Nederland & PNG, Vidor running the Slot T probably had more victories over Crosby than anyone, last year defeating Crosby by 10. I read Crosby has a new DC, so they may can matchup better than in the past, but we’ll see. LH D is almost non-existent, so their offense better score often. https://www.maxpreps.com/high-schools/liberty-hill-panthers-(liberty-hill,tx)/football/home.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In 2018 they set the national rushing record if I’m not mistaken, but those state championship teams in 06’ and 07’ were even better IMO. When Carthage played them in 2007 you literally did not know who had the ball. Frustrating to watch, but you cannot argue with the results.

SmoakyBandito Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 Crosby has to be a pretty big favorite right? They have had a hell of a playoff run. Beat #5, #4 and #3 ranked teams in consecutive weeks. Not taking anything away from LH, but I would imagine they have benefited from being in R4. Would be a great story for LH to make it to the state game in their 1st season in 5a with what happened with their coach passing away during the season. Hope they can pull it out.
