Oh, I do hope you'll need your rain gear. Who else is superstitious about sports? I certainly was when I played back in the ancient times. Silly. I had to eat a grapefruit on Thursday night watching a particular TV show or else I would jinx us. Don't remember the show, don't remember how it got started. Last night I felt I had to change seats at the half because the Tigers were flat. Seemed like the Buffaloes had the formula. The Tigers weren't out of it by any means but they needed some breaks and some big plays. So I changed seats and look what happened, 28 unanswered points in the second half. My rational brain tells me that it's happenstance coupled with the fact that the Tigers stepped up and performed. But my primitive brain tells me it was all because I changed seats. Last year at Legacy there was a moment when it looked like Cuero was about to take control for good. The grandkids were with us there at Legacy and they are big Harry Potter fans. Cuero had just scored and was driving again so I told them needed something so they should cast a spell. Happily they obliged. They consulted among themselves and came up with a hex and chanted some Potter stuff and waved their arms and the next play the Tigers recovered a fumble and ran it back for a touchdown. I mean the very next play! Remember the play? It was hilarious! You should have seen their faces. "Granddaddy! It worked! It actually worked! We did it! We did it!" It's become legend in our family already. See? That's how these things get started. And now it's the rain. If it rains the Tigers will beat the Mustangs in playoff situations. The quality of the teams has nothing to do with it. It's the rain you see. I was there in 98, wasn't it at TJ stadium? My daughter was a senior. I was there last year when it was obvious to everyone that WOS looked very uncomfortable right from the start but the Tigers seemed to be thrilled thrilled that it was storming. Weather is the great equalized and that's factual and reasonable. But what day it decides to rain is happenstance. And I love it. And why not?Usually these things are decided in delivery rooms 17 or 18 years ago or by who moves to what town are by who can find and keep the best coach. But every now and then fate rears it's disturbing head. I wonder if the Mustangs would trade every single one of those regular season wins for the two Tiger postseason wins? Oh those lovely intangibles. Anyway, PM showers on Thursday but it will have moved off by Friday. Oh well. Doesn't mean the Tigers have to lose. Does it? I'm calling the grandkids.

I’ll be danged. Before the season I thought that this would just about be the ceiling for Newton this year. I ended up revising my forecast upwards after Newton did so well in non-district. Nothing to be ashamed of considering what all was lost from that 2018 team/staff. I wish a “bad” year for us was a third round exit. Newton will be back before long.

But let's be honest silsbee is ur second team.and u know ur not gonna pull for w.o to win.

Y’all not holding up y’all end of the deal Tigers....let’s go so we can play in Beaumont

Girls #6 Humble Summer Creek 64 Beaumont United 71 Final... Now time for the boys to complete the sweep....

I don't know that it was an injectable offense.

Yep I just seen it BISD... Silsbee are the Visitors.. 7:30

What's the problem with that? BISD has hosted many playoff games including WO-S and other local teams with no issues, plenty of parking, plenty of room, easy access, ect.

Melissa should’ve upset Waco La Vega, but blew a 20-0 lead. Then got the ball back with 30 seconds left in their own territory tied at 42 and ran the ball instead of kneeling and forcing OT. Fumbled. Then got a penalty and put La Vega in fg range and lost 45-42 as time expired

Is the the speed more physical?

Gilmer beat the ranked number 1 team Waco Connolly

I don't consider Daingerfield beating Newton a big upset. Always looked liked a game that could go either way to me.

Highland park lost to frisco lone star

Sounding like BISD ON FRIDAY

Excuse me, Taylor with an INT!!

As usual coach T ain't happy.lol

Good luck WOS the rest of the way. I imagine it’s off to region 4 for us lol thankfully

Missed chances really. Tigers doing fine just missing right now. Taylor wasn't out of bounds either. Jmo

I hate these 2 teams match up so early. This should be a Regional Finals game

I'll worry about next week tomorrow, if we have to.

Old man, quit sending private messages, it's weird

Nope, but I could roll a safety over to help a DB that was getting smoked every play. I know you're Mr. Coach and try to call every fan out.

74 69 Houston Sam Houston won. Brae Bush had 45 pts.

Kinda like quid pro quo? I wonder how many americans dont even know the meaning

Yep. No umbrellas or bags. Pretty much the same rules of SEVERAL stadiums across the state...

JR. Had another monster game in the lost. 28pts 16rebs 2ast 3blks

They ran alot of sets and I mean alot to where they got most of the shots they wanted and it dictated the pace if the game...offensively they struggled but defensively they were in every posession...

Picnic spoilers had a great year....Congrats

Ranked 1 by who...PG been #1 as far as I’ve seen

I agree. But everyone talk about Newton losing Foster Barlow and Brown who spent most of their time on offense. Newton don’t have a problem scoring. What hurt Newton is not replacing Metoyer, Kellum, Paulette, and McGraw. If it’s one thing about Newton. Their defense has been the key to winning. Defense was good with Sylvester but not like it was the last two years.

All I know is at this rate...this could be the longest thread ever on SETX!

Yea, is what the word on the street is lol. It's gonna be a good one.

It’s next to impossible to replace the D1 talent Newton lost to graduation last year; I mean losing that kind of talent would be crippling for a 6A program, much less a 3A team

Yeah the Taylor run in the 1st qtr was a TD. He wasnt out of bounce. Bad call by the refs.

Exactly

WOS defense is ALWAYS good. Year in and year out.

Actually I thought Huntsville just put 54 on Crosby in round 2. Oh well whatever both teams had a great year and once again congrats to BH on a district Championship and 11 wins. Hell BH might win district in all 3 major sports boys and girls.

Can kogt please get Allen a new field mic? I'll chip in

#10 from Bellville is real good, best RB WOS has played against

He really get ejected? Who was it? Means he has to sit the first half next week right?

That was a nice play at the right time 😁

I’d be focused Giddings lol

Yes we have. But he is dangerous if he finds a hole. I think they will have to try other ways to get him the ball. 43 yrd FG was great to get in just before half.

Great season BH. You guys never quit and represented your community with class. Hopefully we will be in position to meet again next year. Be proud. HOKA HEY!!

New Iberia 33 United 37 Final

New Iberia 25 United 30 end of 3

New Iberia 6 United 9 end of 1

BH isn't ready for this kind of game yet. That's all I'm saying about the game. Good season Eagles and Good luck Manvel. They're very beatable though.

No, I can understand his frustration. I don't mind when a thread is kept open, but when it is kept open by a discussion that doesn't even involve one of the teams involved about an award that was awarded 4 years ago, I can see that it is quite maddening. Particularly as this is being kept alive by some guy, whose alma mater took advantage of the UIL's 4 team playoff rule to sneak into the playoffs and thus became bi-district cannon fodder, who has openly professed his hatred of Silsbee High. I do find it interesting that to prod the Silsbee faithful in this thread (which was created with no Silsbee Tiger involvement ever envisioned....I know...I created it!) he is using the fact that a West Orange-Stark player won this award 4 years ago over a Silsbee player. It is interesting because this "man" has clearly indicated over the years that he has no love for West Orange-Stark and has taken every opportunity to speak ill of the West Orange-Cove ISD. He is just a crap starter.....he has admitted so.....who continues to be a pain in my backside....and to the backside of true BC fans.
