Marshall has no business playing Longview and Carthage year after year. What does Marshall learn from this? How to get your rear handed to you or how to give up? Same story year after year. You can not win against loaded teams. Kids come from all around to play for a winning team. Parents want their football players to be on these teams. You can’t blame them. The UIL allows this. It’s big bucks for these schools. Maybe some day a Marshall coach will wise up and stop being the whipping child for these teams. There are plenty of other good teams you can gage you team against! Sad sad sad!

I’d rather get it handed to us a couple of games and win some playoff games than to play a powder puff district and either not make the playoffs or get driven in the first round. 

We had a good balance this year. Two very winnable games.  And 2 games that kicked us in the teeth.  We don’t have any disillusions of who we are.

Carthage and Longview make us better in the long run.   Alvarez is building. Trying to get where they are.

Hard work has gotten Carthage and Longview to where they're at. But yes, it's tough to play either one of these two teams.

Marshall is at home but they didn't get off the bus. Has gifted Carthage 4 tds. Very first offensive snap you lose a snap and turn it over. That set the tone for rest of game. 

I don’t know that I would call any of them gifts buddy. Also I hope Dairy Queen isn’t depending on business from advertising on Marshall’s first downs, they’d go bankrupt!
