Sure, but the team has been stagnant for 7-8 years, and is now playing 6A and all of a sudden they’re full of studs? Just seems pretty strange.

I think they have a good shot. Last week HF beat themselves as much as Cuero beat them. Turnovers put the horns in a huge hole early, but the horns outscored them by like 20 points from mid-second on, even with penalties killing several important plays for HF

Pooch kick backfired, Cuero returns to the Jasper 36

Touchdown, Jasper. 30 yd pass or so

Jasper picks Cuero in the end zone, and now driving

Where did all the talent come from for Willis? They haven’t had a winning season since 2016, but all of a sudden they’re 12-0 with 10 D1 players?

Jasper forced to punt again, Cuero gets it on their own 9

Both teams go 3 and out to start, but Cuero roughed the kicker giving Jasper a 1st down

Horns win without seastrunk playing today

Here’s why the vidor game is at least semi-relevant. Part of what makes the slot-t so hard to defend is it’s a novelty. Most 4A teams go seasons without facing it. So it is kind of a big deal that they’ve seen 4 quarters of it from an okay team running it. That’s a much better look at it than a week of the scout team trying to mimic it. It’ll give them a leg up vs. anyone else who Bellville has played. A much larger leg up over those teams will come from Silsbee’s talent and speed on both sides of the ball. Bellville answered a lot of questions for me the last two weeks. It’s clear they’re really good. But they haven’t played anyone close to as good as Silsbee, so looking at results against common opponents is about as valuable as going by what happened last season. It should be a great game. I’m gonna go with the tigers just because they have a lot more flexibility on offense, but obviously anything can happen.

As an HF and employee, I absolutely hated to see that. It’s not something we expect as longhorn fans. I’m hoping it’s addressed quickly. Good luck to y’all moving forward. Y’all have an excellent team.

Jasper can play with them, but are going to have to play a clean game. Gotta limit turnovers and penalties. That’s what did HF in.

Reading through this thread was a nice object lesson

I made that point and a certain poster can’t get over it. That said, I never said they weren’t good. I just said it was hard to tell how good based on that schedule. But the last two weeks have shown just how good they are. It should be a great game. Silsbee is a lot better than WOS or Madisonville, and they played a game already this year against the slot-T, albeit against a much lesser team. Can’t wait to watch this one.

HF did a great job fighting all night, but man did they hurt themselves all game. Had to be close to 20 penalties. Some of those were caused by facing a really good team, but most were mental errors or personal fouls. Not to mention all of the turnovers early to put themselves in a big hole they couldn’t ever make it all the way out of

I’m behind, but seeing the start of it. Hate that, and don’t like to see our boys acting like this.

Horns have 5-yarded themselves to death tonight in some huge spots

I know my broadcast is behind. But HF got a huge stop on 4th down, got a big gain to about the Cuero 30, then had 5 mistakes in a row (slip, drop, penalty, sack, personal foul) that led to Cuero ending up with the ball on the HF 30

Impressive result for sure

No quit in these horns
