hey i never did understand those numbers! let the experts figure them out. :twisted: does it say that Jasper has played the 4th toughest schedule in 3a in Texas???? i see that 0-4 Atlanta is no 1 on sos: Rnk Team W L T Rating Power - Offense - Defense ----- Schedule Strength 47 Atlanta 0 4 0 0.949 24.32 ( 34) 32.90 ( 46) 12.84 ( 21) 36.59 ( 1) 3A II-16 guess this stuff don't mean nuthin ole broadcaster! :shock:

Massey ratings posted on the Downlow: Rnk Team W L T Rating Power - Offense - Defense ----- Schedule Strength 36 Kirbyville 2 1 0 1.084 23.90 ( 37) 37.62 ( 20) 7.69 ( 74) 16.17 ( 66) 3A III-21 ............ 49 Jasper 0 3 0 0.910 23.28 ( 40) 32.99 ( 44) 11.71 ( 36) 32.54 ( 4) 3A III-21 So there it is. Kirbyville is officially the favorite. There is a world of difference between being rated 36th best in 3a and 49th. Jasper is going to have it's hands full trying to beat Kirbyville in Kirbyville. Good luck to both teams.

a picnic in more ways than one.

You need some of both, but without question, good coaching is essential. Not naming names, but there obviously are schools loaded with raw talent that year after year do poorly. The right coaching could probably turn them into power houses.

Livingston's victory this year over Jasper was their first time to beat Jasper since 1952. The father of the current Livingston coach PLAYED on their 52 team!

Absolutely. Newton ducks no one. I bet they would play South Lake Carroll if the opportunity arose.

I appreciate your post. Thanks. You are right about the hard work necessary. Even teams with all the talent in the world can still be beaten on any given night. But we do know that it is only one or two posters talking silly, and our comments are directed to that poster. We are NOT turning on Kirbyville, even though it might seem that way. I still pull for KV in the playoffs even though Jasper continually has to put up with celebrations from that KV poster whenever Jasper stumbles. I even went to one of your playoff games last year. Unfortunately, I must have jinxed you. :oops: Sorry.

yeah, that is the kitty cat!

Nobody is "GIVING" kv the third place spot. I think the fifth place spot has been reserved for you. and you will have to earn that. :twisted:

like last year? you have such a short memory!

West Hardin by however much they want.

Best football facilities, easy. Jasper. :mrgreen:

Wonder how many talented players Carthage had?

Back on topic, Carthage only gets to play 11 players at a time, same as Newton. And just because Kirbyville could not handle Carthage does not in itself mean that Newton will not fare better! Go Eagles! And sorry that Kirbyville has only 4 talented players. Last I counted Jasper has about 22 talented players. :twisted:

we can probably beat you in basketball also! :twisted: :mrgreen:

Thank you for the post cat55. Now that is class in case kvilleballa is reading. Certainly, Kirbyville has a very good chance to win this game Friday night. I feel sure that the Jasper coaches are burning the mid-night oil trying to develop a game plan to contain your speed. Good luck to your team, and may the best team win.

kvilleballa, i give you credit, credit for dis-respecting every other team in the district. you want credit for your team, spread some around for other teams.

If you had trouble with Livingston, then Nederland should be a major headache. Nederland by 14.
