I am left to wonder how the death of Coach Preston’s brother impacted the defensive game plan of Carthage. That and the flu were unfortunate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EdgarAllenPwn Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 I like Carthage and really wanted to see them get the 10th ring I feel like we are witnessing history with them. East Texas will miss this Dynastic program when it finally dissolves. As for Gilmer — Them boys showed up and fought tooth and nail. Props to them for taking out Goliath. Now for Carthage to start that win streak back over next year. I want to see the 10th ring Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our coaching staff has to be able to get our guys prepared and coached up in a game against Surratt, Preston, and company. What works on other teams won't work on Carthage. Our coaches have to break through and mix things up, adjust on the fly, and make a little magic happen. Our talent is fully capable to give Carthage a good, competitive game. We just have to be able to do the aforementioned, and break through with a win. We're bringing the tinkers' dang hex with us tonight, so be prepared to see something you haven't seen in a long while.

hitemwheretheyaint Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 Congratulations to Gilmer on a hard fought win. I never believed that anyone could beat Carthage by taking 3 pts when you are so close to getting 7 & this happened often last night. Props to Gilmer’s Head Coach and his staff for having the balls to execute this over & over again. Huge props to their kicker. What a game he had. Absolutely clutch. Congratulations to Carthage too for just being who you are every year in the Surratt era. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MoveTheChain Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 Game reminds me of 2005. #1 Gilmer knocked out by Liberty-Eylau. LE had either 3 or 4 losses to start their season (similar to Gilmer this year). How could LE possibly hang with the unbeaten Buckeyes. Nobody thought it was possible, but LE showed up and showed out, when everyone said Gilmer was unbeatable and already expecting the Buckeyes to easily pick up their 2nd State Championship. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We expect Carthage to win, but that ain't stoppin us from also expectin the Buckeyes to give it their best effort and hope for some lucky breaks. Playoffs have a way of giving us unusual winners and losers at times and maybe this will be one of those times for us to steal a win from the Dawgs. Gotta see how it plays out, but yeah, Carthage should win. It seems like Gilmer matched up with Carthage better than Gilmer against PG. Running QBs have been a constant thorn in the side of the Buckeyes all year. Thank you Dawgs, for not letting young pup Surratt run wild on us like other teams. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw the end of the game. It was a great game and I like a great story. Either way I cheer on all NE TX teams in the playoffs and one SE TX team. I hope the Buckeyes win it all as I would have hoped Carthage the same. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody thought it was possible, but LE showed up and showed out, when everyone said Gilmer was unbeatable and already expecting the Buckeyes to easily pick up their 2nd State Championship. That was 2006 when L.E. put it on us in the first round and won state. 2005 we got beat 61-58 by Canton, which I believe was the last time we have lost at Rose Stadium. I got to say this, I have been very critical of the Gilmer defense and coaches this year and I think rightfully so, but they deserve credit. They have worked and worked and pulled off a shocker last night. They have adjusted the defense throughout the year and it still ain't that great, but it won last night! I don't get how our coaches completely get out coached and schemed by a team like Sunnyvale, who we should have beat by multiple touchdowns, but barely beat by a last second field-goal, and then turn around and coach and scheme as good a game as they did against one of the greatest duos of all-time in Coach Surratt and Coach Preston. That shows that Metzel and his staff CAN do it, but WILL they do it. Guess we will see next week if they are on top of things, or if this really was just a "lightening in a bottle" type game for Gilmer against Carthage. Hope they got it figured out and beat Glenn Rose. And for Carthage, as always, what a pleasure to play such a class program. Y`all are the cream of the crop. Coaches, Players, Fans, etc.......just top notch. Y`all are going to be scary next 2 years. I can't wait to see how good that sophomore RB is as a Senior, that kid has it. Same thing with Jett. And #70 for Carthage is a hell of a player. I think he played almost every snap on the o O-Line and D-Line.....that's impressive. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, Carthage is a class program and community that everyone wants to be like. I agree that the next 2 years will be frightening for Carthage opponents. Crazy upside potential with their young guns. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhoamI97539 Posted December 3, 2023 Share Posted December 3, 2023 (edited) Congratulations Gilmer y'all definitely did the hard work for the other teams now don't let it be for nothing y'all shouldn't see any team better than what Carthage was.
