Congrats Diboll. Boy, did you ever come to play football !!!

Probably a better game for Jasper. I was stunned at how Livingston crashed last year.

Congrats Dogs!

How about the 1959 score? Well if you are going that far back, may as well get them all....

And who is the QB that played?

The only caveat that I have is "What if they are in fact innocent of the crime". Sadly there are documented cases where this was the truth. But King was clearly guilty beyond any reasonable doubt. They had his DNA placing him on the scene.

At the time the dragging news came out, I was working with a black lady in San Antonio. She grew up in the Orange area, but her father grew up in Jasper. She said they regularly went back to Jasper for their family reunions. She said clearly there were communities in Southeast Texas where blacks had to be on guard, but that Jasper was by no means on that list. Furthermore, she said that if she had been told to pick the LEAST likely place for something like that to happen she would have picked Jasper. For whatever that is worth, that was her take.

And back a few years, Ben Bronson. He either ran or threw for most of Jasper's touchdowns.

No punishment could have made up for what King did to Byrd. And to all the good people of Jasper, which is most everyone there. Easily overlooked is the fact that unlike many cases in the deep South, the three miscreants were all in jail within 24 hours, and tried and sentenced within a year or so. No cover up here! The people of Jasper were handed a job to do; and they did the right thing. Glad this chapter is finally over.

If I remember correctly I read last year that Montavian Hunt had been considered for QB last year. True?

Congrats Silsbee. Ya'll had a great year. Too bad it had to end this way.

Congratulations Newton!

Congrats Silsbee. You should win out from here if all your players don't get the flu.

Go Stangs! Go Tigers! Entertain us!!!

Absolutely true. Can't cry about it now, but the good news is that both Hunt and Limbrick will be back next year. Limbrick is only a Sophomore and already has had flashes of the same lightning that Hunt has. Either would have been a great help tonight.

Deja vu all over again! Congrats WOS!

Having to earn those yards the old fashioned way. Three yards and a cloud of turf.

Just playing with you. Not you, not sure whose posts seem unchanged from first game. "Cannot run on WOS." I believed that then, believe it now. But I was wrong to believe it for the first game. Just waiting to see for this game.

Whistling in the dark keeps the buggers away also. Especially while walking past the graveyard. I know this is dumb. Just doing my part to help get to 20 pages! At least this site is not dead..

Guess #7 Hunt may not play. But his little brother from the JV may play? No idea what his number is. Wasn't on the program last week.

I'll bite on that. If each of three RB is as good as Hunt then how did Silsbee lose the game to WOS? 3 times 374 would be a lot of yards.

I think I know how you feel. It is great to get to play WOS, but on a seeding basis, this probably should be the state championship game. Kind of a shame actually to have to play at this level.

Yeah I wasn't going to mention how the Stark season ended.

Kind of funny. He picked up on West Orange but apparently overlooked the game against Stark in 1962 at Jasper. That game also did not end well for Jasper either. 65-6 loss. Jasper celebrated anyway because they scored a TD against a top 10 ranked team That was a David Foster qb'd team for Stark if any of you Orange folks are old enough to remember him.

WOS, you do have Jasper's attention. Link to KJAS: [Hidden Content] The history of Stark and West Orange is a bit jumbled, but the 1986 and on pretty well sums up the beatings the dogs have taken at the hands of WOS.
