[quote name="Jackthehammer" post="830067" timestamp="1282682835"] Two words Quadri Diggs.   Stop him stop them. [/quote] Diggs is all they have! That is 5 words hammer and one player can not beat a very very good team. Tried to tell ya that!! Diggs will not last the season - he was worn out and barely played D the 2nd half. Our offense looked very very good.

[quote name="rjn75" post="830809" timestamp="1282779469"] MAY I ASK WHAT PLAYER YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT? [/quote] Our right offensive tackle - big kid 6-4 292 has a hurt knee. We plug in a Pearland transfer, 300 lb kid into right guard and slide our 280 pound guard out to right tackle - should be fine.

[quote name="BHFAN" post="830059" timestamp="1282681218"] I thought it was strange they were picked last, but Dave Campbell is bad about not giving teams repect unless they are a known team over the past couple of years. Anyway I don't know what to expect, but the scrimmage against PM has me thinking Santa Fe will be no PM ;D [/quote] Guys - Santa Fe has only made the playoffs a few times in the last 30 years and the teams in our district keep getting better. Dawson, Manvel, Ball, geez. So it should not be shocking that they are picked last. Manvel is picked last by some and I think that is a joke. Last place will be between Fe and Texas City. Fe did beat us last year, so it can happen. Now vs BH - seems like it should be a close game. Go Fe!!

First - Hardcore is jus trying to get a rise. I have never seen Elkins play so no clue. Based on last years results, which is a poor barometer of this years teams, Elkins was good and hung very tough with Clear Springs - 28-26. Springs is pretty good this year, as evidenced by last nights thrashing of a good 4a Dawson. But they had some problems with Dawson - 3 turnovers and only 20 yards rushing. So I know Dayton much better and know they are good. I would predict a  game where Elkins could win by no more than 14, but Dayton could easily win this thing also. Go 4a Dayton!!

[quote name="Tyrone_Biggums" post="830131" timestamp="1282693611"] This is basically a match up between angleton's athleticism and friendswood's coaching.  It all depends on whether or not friendswood can stop the big play and chew up a little bit of clock to limit the touches that diggs gets.  I think angleton wins unless they try to play man coverage with no safety net besides diggs.  We'll see. [/quote] I think you will find we are very athletic and Angletons coaches are very good. Agree with Fatdaddy and another poster the supporting cast for Diggs is nothing like it was last year at this point in the season. They may get there and this may be one of those games we we are glad we played them early! 31-24 FW

[quote name="fatdaddy" post="829866" timestamp="1282646891"] Got the "lost for the year" info straight from a coach on Sunday. I hope he's not, but my info says he probably is. [/quote] Well as of Monday and today the data is that he will be lost for 3-4 weeks. We shall see. Coaches are not Doctors and should not listen to trainers. They are usually clueless on matters like this. Strained MCL, minor tear in ACL.

[quote name="fatdaddy" post="829238" timestamp="1282527011"] Just in from Alvin scrimmage. Beat Alvin handily, but lost a stud Junior O lineman (D-1 prospect) for the year with a knee injury. Great O-line goes to a real good O-line. I don't think it will affect the offense any immediately, but the loss of depth may really hurt us later in the year as we get deep into district. I think Friendswood wins against WO-S, but we have a more immediate worry with Angleton at Angleton this week. If we can handle Angleton's speed, then WO-S wont really worry me. FWD has speed this year where they need it, but I think the other poster had it right when he said that if FWD had real speed, they would have several State titles (see Southlake Carroll, and Lake Travis). [/quote] He is not gone for the year, do not know if he is going to be a d1 recruit and we have good depth, we will fill the hole. Just the facts, just the facts!

WestBrook team looks awesome and demolishes their opponent. In addition their Band and cheerleaders were clearly superior to the competition. When asked how that could be the Brook parents said, we PRACTICE game conditions more than any other team!!

[/quote]its practice.  :D [/quote] THEY WERE PRACTICING - get over it!!

[quote name="fwstangs" post="826146" timestamp="1282001529"] Not seeing FW Left Tackle Ben Compton or QB Peter Maetzold is also an oversight. Remember those two names. Peter clearly outshone the UH committ from Houston Lamar in our scrimmage. [/quote] Told yall to remember Compton - verballed to Texas A&M this week, switching from Rice. Totally dominant in our two scrimmages.

24-3 is about what I expected - that is what meant by manhandle. Good luck to both teams on the rest of the season.

I've been around football for a long time and I know better than making predictions about a team that I know nothing about other than what I hear on message boards... You know, I used "arrogant", but there are actually a couple of words used to describe someone who is so sure of themselves in the face of an unfamiliar opponent that is usually a quality team. They are either arrogant or stupid, you can make your own pick there if you feel arrogant is not fitting... ;D [/quote] I do not know how many ways to say this - we scheduled WOS because they are a quality program. Yes I think my team will win. If that is arrogance then you have never played sports. Please show me my lofty predictions. The blowout predictions have come from SETX schools! Read em and weep.  So yes I am arrogant and stupid because I think my team will win!

[quote name="Hawkeye" post="827691" timestamp="1282274197"] I ain't got a horse in this race  ;D get it? But WOS doesn't have a chance. FW is too big and too strong (and fast)! I've seen them beat us (Dayton) for the last several years and if they have anywhere close to the same team as the last two years it's done. WOS should just look at this game as another scrimmage.   [/quote] Now do not be arrogant Dayton fan!!

[quote name="panamamyers" post="827902" timestamp="1282320950"] Exactly Gasilla. FW fans are a little too defensive. The thing you have to remember about high school football teams is that they are going to have multiple busted assignments throughout a game.  NFL teams have them, college teams have more than the NFL, and high school teams have even more than college.  This goes for the very best executing teams out there like LT.  LT will have plenty of busted assignments throughout a game.  They are good enough to still win the games though. Knowing that, you now have to consider the result of the busted assignment.  If you are playing a typical team, you may bust an assignment and give up 20 yards.  If you play WOS and a guy misses an assignment then they have two or three receivers that no one on FW can catch. I guess I'm saying that WOS has a puncher's chance.  They have a lot of speed in the defensive backfield.  I could see them picking off a ball or two and possibly running one back for a td.  I could see them getting a punt or kick return for a td.  I could see them getting a long pass play or two for a td. When you have that kind of speed, you always have a chance. Now that post I agree with! Any thing can happen and speed can help you out. We are on the same page now. And folks - we are just messing with each other, coach Van scheduled this game because we respect WOS and now they are good!! [/quote]

[quote name="Gasilla" post="827848" timestamp="1282316601"] FW fans think they are going to win because they are big and have executed well in the past, Panama is merely saying that WOS has a shot because we will be faster. What's the big deal??? Both sides have a reason why they think a team will be successful. I would imagine that WOS [b]IS[/b] probably faster than FW and FW [b]IS[/b] probably bigger than WOS. I don't know why ya'll are getting so excited about it. I never read where he said being faster guaranteed a win, but neither does being bigger and beating Dayton 47 years in a row... ;) I have not seen our speed compared to FW. I do know that when we played them in 2000 (which was a long time ago, I know) we were WAY faster than FW and their players even said so after the game. The game is going to come down, as always, to match ups. Period. [/quote] Your best post yet!!
