BAILEY AND SPIKES WILL PLAY JASPER GOT BEAT IN FOOTBALL ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D it won't make much difference. it will take a few weeks for the footballers to get their basketball legs. so BS can relax.

Congratulations Chapel Hill. RB Tucker is indeed the real deal.

Big Sandy. Jasper's guards are still playing football.

Go get 'em Dogs! Jasper Dogs I mean.

Congratulations to Coach Lauve. His teams at Jasper proved hard to beat in the playoffs. Good luck.

now that is MOTIVATION. i will be surprised if we don't see you out on the field helping. ;D

and just like in 04, Jasper has three players who have starting time at QB. That triples the options available.

Friday night I will be watching Silsbee and Huffman. Saturday, it will be Jasper and Chapel Hill.

CH probably has more than just a RB and they will need it. Playoff history is littered with teams who lost with a one-dimensional offense. Remember Adrian Peterson? He is perhaps one of the best RB to ever come out of Texas. Result for Palestine a few years ago? They lost in bi-district.

CHill has tried to throw many of times, the QB has no arm at all. Beware the backup QB.

For sure, Chapel Hill will try to trick Jasper, just as Jasper will try to trick them. I think the best thing Jasper has going for them right now is the multitude of QBs. Remember 2004? The other team, and most Jasper fans for that matter, never knew who the QB would be on any given play. It is not quite that bad yet, but the way they have been moving Bailey around should be enough to give any defensive coordinator nightmares.

Jasper defeats Center 40 - 25. Next game: In Lufkin this Sat. 7:30 pm against Chapel Hill. Jasper will have its hands full once again. What are your thoughts on this game? Will Chapel Hill roll over the Dogs like Gilmer did?

Way to go Silsbee!

Congratulations Kirbyville! You are the master of all of Jasper and Newton Counties!

Jasper 19-11, 8 sec left in third. Center played tough in first half, seem now to be wearing down.

Jasper 12-11, 4 min to go in third.

I noticed that. Also I noticed that they scored fewer points on Gilmer than Jasper did. But they also gave up fewer points. Perhaps that should be a wash. In any event, if Jasper makes the playoffs I am confident they will take the game to Chapel Hill. The telling point will be what CH has to go with that RB.

If Jasper beats Center next week they are in the playoffs for sure. Go Dogs! A team can have all the problems in the world, then suddenly correct things for the playoffs. It is time for the Dogs to do that. What they did tonight against Rusk certainly seemed to be right on target! With both Bailey and Spikes at WR it is no longer true that they do not have ATHLETES at those positions. Of course, next week they may move Spikes to QB. ;D

Congratulations Silsbee!

just a normal game for Kirbyville.

With their backs to the wall, I knew Coach Brooks would get things lined out.

There has been a discrepancy of the reporting on this score. It was first reported widely that Center beat Rusk 14-7, but later reports had it Rusk winning 14-8. From other posts it appears this is the correct score. Either way, judging from the score it would appear that both teams will be equally tough for Jasper.

Will that give Jasper the tie breaker even if they lose to Center next week? They won't lose to Center. Center is "trash." Did not Rusk and Center play a pretty close game? If Center is "trash", where would that place Rusk? Center has played some competitive games. Jasper must take EVERY game seriously or someone will hand it to them.

Will that give Jasper the tie breaker even if they lose to Center next week?

Jasper was a "baseball" school long before it was a football school. And yes, it is now looking good for Jasper baseball again. By the way, Coach Mixon's father played on some of those great Jasper baseball teams back in the sixtys. And who knows what truly has happened to the Jasper program? Certainly, Gilmer, Carthage, Diboll, and Kirbyville are very good teams. That does not change Jasper fans expectations. They expect to win no matter who they play, just as they did almost EVERY year for twenty years under their last long tenure coach. Or like Newton has done under Barbay since almost forever. Or like Kirbyville is now doing under Alvarez. I certainly hope that Coach Brooks gets whatever it is straightened out. He has paid his dues and deserves to do well.
