I disagree that football is a "major fundraiser for schools." Most schools just hope to break even from football with the cost of uniforms, equipment. coaching stipends, travel, referees, utilities, insurance, etc. I doubt there are very many schools in Texas that make money off of football and certainly don't consider it to be a "major fundraiser".

I agree HORNSFAN86, that 4th down play in the 3rd quarter was the turning point of the game. Plus HF seemed a little disorganized in the final two minutes of the game when they needed to get into field goal range to try to send the game into overtime.

Arthur Louis was the first Ozen coach. He got them into the playoffs every year, but that wasn't good enough for BISD so they didn't renew his contract. He was an assistant principal at Silsbee for a couple of years. Now he is back coaching as an assistant at West Brook and his son is the starting QB. I wonder if Ozen would like him back?

I believe that the UIL will pay for the first year of steroid testing. After that the local school districts will pay. So this will become another unfunded mandate from Austin.

There are a few "young" teams in the district.

You never know if it comes down to a tie breaker that last touchdown might be important.

Kinda like the HJ boy's basketball team full court pressing in the 4th quarter while leading by 50 points.

HF returned the opening kickoff for a touchdown and it was a blowout after that.

Why doesn't the UIL allow four teams from each district to advance to the playoffs? Two in division I and two in division II. This would add more revenue to the UIL with an additional round of playoffs and they wouldn't need to create these large and small districts that would increase the travel.
