FULL GAME LOG

GAME PREVIEW & SERIES REVIEW:
Defense, penalties, mistakes and a little bit of rain. The story of week 1 football for the Longview Lobos and the Lufkin Panthers as the two old rivals met for the 87th time this past Friday night at Abe Martin Stadium. It was the definition of opening week football as the two schools struggled to move the ball against either teams' defense. Both scores came on fluke plays that probably shouldn't of happened. Longview was shut out until the final play of the first half, when the Lobos were granted an extra play due to a Lufkin players' helmet coming off which stopped the clock. After fumbling the hand off, Longview's Kelvin Washington picked the ball up and scrambled 48-yards for what would end up being the only touchdown of the contest. Lufkin's three points came midway at the start of the fourth quarter. However, the play never should have happened, as the Lobos forced Lufkin back on 4th down...only for the refs to grant Lufkin an extra play and a fifth down. The three points for Lufkin ended nearly an 11-quarter scoring drought against the Lobos. At the end of the day, Longview will be much happier to work on things following a win than following a loss, and that's what they do this week after winning their 8th in a row over their southern rivals. The win marked Longview's 11th win over Lufkin in the last 12 meetings. Now Longview turns their attention to their eastern rivals, in the Marshall Mavericks. Marshall's season was off to a rough start after fumbling the opening kickoff against the Tyler Lions. However, the Mavs turned things around and rolled to a second half, 41-14 victory over Cujo. The win for Marshall over Tyler was just their second since 1998, and their largest since 1989. The two long time rivals will face off for the 114th time, the third longest series in Texas High School Football history. Longview has won the last eight meetings against Marshall, and 22 of the last 23 meetings. The lone loss for the Lobos since 2001, was a 28-25 loss at Maverick Stadium in 2015. That loss is the only loss for the Lobos at Maverick Stadium since 2000. winning 10 of the last 11 visits there. Overall, the Lobos are a dominating 17-5 at new Maverick Stadium, which opened in 1980. Friday's 7-3 victory was Longview's lowest scoring victory since defeating John Tyler 7-3 back in 1985. It was just the 5th time in the John King era that Longview had score 7 points or less in a game, which dates back to 2004. Marshall will be looking to do something on Friday that they haven't done in nearly a century. Marshall's last non-district win over the Lobos came back in 1931, when the Mavs walked away with a 14-0 victory. Longview has won 18 non-district contests between the two sense, almost coming since Marshall dropped to Class 4A in 2002. The two schools first met in 1909, when Longview and Marshall battled to a 0-0 tie at Brown Park in Marshall. The larger city of Marshall dominated in the early going, until the tides turned in the early '30s. After taking their final break in the series, in 1932, Longview has taken control of the series overall, with a 64-24-3 record against Marshall since. To continue the winning ways, Longview must protect the ball better as the Lobos, for the second consecutive season opener, fumbled the ball away three times. Longview's defense was able to force it's own turnovers in the second half with two interceptions, however two fourth down stops by Lufkin stole points from the Lobos that prevented Longview from another multiple win score over the Pack.

It is funny how the outcome of the LV/LP game is seen through opposite lenses....some Lufkin fans think they can compete for state if they can find an offense...I am getting the idea that some Marshall fans think they should be favored in this one....

Going to be an interesting week.

I doubt you will find any legit sane Marshall fan who thinks we should be favored vs Longview.  Longview is Longview and is 2 divisions above us. Playing Longview close is considered a moral victory for us. Not that it compares to actually winning. I will say that this is a rare year in which losing by 30+ would somewhat surprise me for a change.

That thought makes the most sense. Only time will tell just how good Lufkin and Longview turn out this year.

From who?  I don’t know a single Mav fan that would favor us to win if money was on the line. 

The only thing I’ve seen that suggested a Marshall win was by a Nac fan.

We are at the point in this series now that I’d be thrilled with a tough competitive loss that might produce a modicum of respect. Maybe. Possibly. Probably not.

Interested to hear from Mav fans what is working for the Mavericks in game one. Seems offense is light years ahead of last year.

9 back on offense and 6 back on defense of a team that lost to the #5 team in the state 21-14 in the 2nd round of playoffs gives us hope for a strong season. 

Luckily a successful or unsuccessful season isn’t defined by this game.

I think if Longview was in 5A Div1 R3 they would feel pretty confident. College Station is good but they're not unbeatable. Same group our SRs beat as Freshman. Outside of that we will play the other Regional favorite in district in PAM. I'm just saying I wouldn't be surprised one bit especially when QB1 gets back.

gotcha on the Region 3 chances...If the LP defense is for real and you guys get your QB back and the Offense develops, I could see LP being a problem.
