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.

No doubt. If the QB comes back and that defense stays healthy, Lufkin would be a hard out. Especially in R3.

I think Longview will play much better this week but the offense is still behind. I'm gonna go Longview 21  Marshall 10

Yeah lufkins defense is solid but it may be tough for us to score on anyone man

I thought Lufkin would give Longview fits and they did.....didnt see 7-3 coming lol

Marshall rolling Tyler shocked me...

Cant pick against Longview but this one isn't going to be the usual Longview coronation...I think Marshall makes em work for it

#31 for Longview is a problem. I've re-watched that game a few times now and Marshall is going to have to figure where that kid is at and run the other way. 

I’d put Kason brooks up against almost anybody in the state. Committed to Harding university but I feel like some D1 FCS programs are gonna come calling if he has the season I think he’s about to have.

Yep, Kason Brooks.

But run the other way and you have to deal with Brenden Reese lol

Well Brooks and Reese might catch the Mav scatbacks every now and then., but they won't shut them down without going over Perkins and Pittman, and that ain't happnin'......

They've been doing it for years, why won't they be able to do it this time?

I think Longview's SR and JR classes crushed Marshall a combined 97-14 as freshmen.

I'm telling ya, if Longview is playing their football...it's going to be business as usual.

If Brooks were a few inches taller he would have 40+ offers.  He looks like he's athletic enough to play S at the D1 level. Really blown away and I agree running at Reese probably isn't a great choice either lol

Arguably the best athlete on the team. Won Longviews iron man competition two years in a row

Pulling for my Mavs.

But 22 years out of 23 years of disappointment has a way of numbing you.

Longview should be a multiple score favorite.  We have to prove we can even keep it close before we can even discuss an upset.

Think about how many of our best teams Longview beat easily

2004- State finalist:  Longview won 40-15
2005- State finalist: Longview won 28-16
2007- Region Semi-finalist: Longview won 41-7
2009 Region Semi-finalist: Longview won 47-30
2015- Region Semi-finalist: Marshall won 28-25
2018- Region Semi-finalist: Longview won 60-14

Kinda of says it all. 

And we don't even know if Marshall is anywhere near as good as some of those past Mav teams.

I've said it till I got laryngitis Players are 60% of the win, Coaches are 40% of the win.  The only person who will be on the field Friday night, who was on the field

for the games from 2004 through 2018. will be John King.  If the coaches don't matter Jerry Jones is wasting a whole lot of money looking for a coach who can win the Big One!!!.

Friday night we will see what Coach Hammett can do

Rodney Southern and Claud Mathis are both amongst the top coaches in the state.  They are both winless against Longview.  Alvarez was one of the winningest coaches in TXHSF and he never beat them.

At the end of the day..... Longview is a school with 800+ more students than MHS.  And a program that is currently at a performative and talent level which NO ONE IN EAST TEXAS can even come close to.  NO ONE.

Just look at their record Vs. Marshall, Lufkin, Tyler, Legacy, Texas High, Sulphur Springs, Pine Tree, Jacksonville, Whitehouse, Hallsville, Mount Pleasant the last 20 years.  Blowout after blowout after blowout.  And if they actually have a close game, they generally find ways to win.

People want to get bent out of shape about how Longview fans view their opponents....especially ETX opponents.... just look at their record.  They walk the walk so they are allowed to talk to talk.

But smack talking a team we're 1-23 against since Pleistocene era makes ZERO sense.
