Can't agree with you here. Our offense is too inconsistent holding on to the ball. We're good but our offense is in rebuilding mode.

The whole offensive line was out with covid. Had to use jv players.

Jasper's offensive coordinator may be the best defensive coordinator in the state.

in 2016, I just knew we were going home. I'm talking about before the game. That was Silsbee's best chance so far to beat us.

That's a big concern of mine.

I'm always looking forward. As long as our boys are not, I'm good lol. Been waiting on this showdown for years. I don't count the last game. WAY too windy.

I'm very curious to see how many long drives WO-S can put together against the Jasper D. I really don't care about the short field as I'm sure they will score at least 2 tds. If WO-S can consistently drive down field on the Jasper D, the Carthage game (if it happens, just got even more interesting)

Very hard. They catch a deep pass but then don't try it again.

Is Jasper trying to lose?

Remember what i said in the Rusk thread about this loss looking bad b/c it was going to make Jasper fans upset with the coach? This is what I meant. If Jasper had an offense, we may be in trouble.

The ONLY way I see that happening is if Carthage turns the ball over on a very short field. If that happens multiple times, things will get interesting.

Yeah, I never pay to much attention to sub varsity for that reason. The best JV players are usually playing on Friday nights.

I agree 100%. My main concern is our offense turning the ball over on a very short field.

Hopefully we can put our worries away after this week b/c this is strongest defense we'll face the rest of the season.

This will be a measuring stick for the Carthage offense. I predict 14-0 or 7-0 and that's going to sting if it happens. If you guys had an offense to go with that defense, an upset wouldnt surprise me. I'd rather lose 30-0. If Carthage scores 30+, I will know our offense is for real. If not, we're still the favorite for state but may get upset if we run into a good defense and an offense who can score a couple of tds

I predict a Carthage win and this lost may look worse to Jasper fans than any other loss and its not for the reason you think.

What do you mean they were never in the game. The score was almost 21-14 in the 4th. I'm glad the defense stepped up. So basically you're saying that carthage just didn't make any mistakes that would have won bigger. Well that's obvious but reality is, our offense makes a lot of mistakes.

I'm not worried a out our defense giving up points. I'm worried about our offense doing it. Either by turnovers or an extremely short field. I know we're just 3 games in and it will more than likely get better but I can only judge what I see now.

Our (Carthage) defense is the truth, but our offense hands the ball over a ton and our defense can't bail us out everytime. If that pick 6 doesn't happen and Gilmer scored it would have been 21-14 and would have prob came down to the end. Until we get a running game, making it to state isn't a guarantee.

I give them a pass against Crosby due to covid and another due to that big dlinw from Cornerstone. If we don't do well with the ground game against Gilmer, then I'll panic. As for Silsbee fans, i personally assumed yall state is always the expectation unless your team prove otherwise. That's no click bait, but just an assumption. Wonder if yall would have won it all the year they had the Dawgs against the ropes.

Covid played a HUGE part in that

Don't know what they returned but they were overrated during the playoffs last year.

Very impressive. Guess we'll find out more this week.

Do you believe 2016 was the greatest team in 4a of that decade?

I just responded to a poster who said they shouldn't play bc they would lose. That's all
