WO-S vs. Gilmer. It probably won't happen because Gilmer will go D1 and WO-S is most likely D2. I hate the two champion format.

The phantom TD by Bridge City last year against WO-S right before halftime. The replay on TV clearly showed the ball bounced off the ground and then into the arms of a BC player while he was on his back. The ref was standing right there, and he still got it wrong.

OK...so Dayton is west of the Trinity River. Big deal. What is your point?

Quick...someone start a few West Brook threads to keep jsmitty happy. Relax, man. I'm twice your age and I can remember when West Brook was "THE team" in southeast Texas. Most of the people on this board who have been around at least as long as me can vouch for the attention that WB once received. They've had many disappointing seasons since the early 90's, and now they have a lot more to cheer about. The turnaround season they had last year was amazing. I expect more good things to come with Coach Stump there. If you're not hearing enough West Brook conversation, then start some threads, and recruit a few of your friends to join in the chats. There doesn't seem to be very many WB alums here to start with, so that's why you don't hear much. Just for the record, there has always been a level of prestige with WB to many of us here.

It's interesting how Ozen, a magnet school with many advantages, is now the third best team in Beaumont.

scooter, I've read your posts on the message boards for a long time. I've never known you to make brash predictions like this. Why now, and why this matchup? I'm not one to make game predictions about my school, but I will say this. There's no way Kirbyville hangs 35 points on WO-S' defense. We haven't given up more than 14 in a game all year. If a team as strong as Dayton could only muster 9 points, Kirbyville won't get to 35. That's a safe bet.

Congratulations Eagles. Nice way to start in 4A. BH continues to improve and Forest Brook is still Forest Brook.

PA Lincoln was proof of that.

The other WOS posters at least on this board have let it go why can't you. What will it take??? Would you like me to round up those that you despise and we can have a cage match? Would that please you???? Congratulations on keeping this "whine fest" going. Please...spare me the silly "let it go" theme. There is nothing to "let go" of. You made the comparison of me to kvilleballa, and that's what you've turned this into. I guess you don't see the difference between proper English and the way he speaks, nor do you see his dazed and confused remarks about the football teams he spoke of. The most confusing thing of all is why I'm bothering to reason with you. Let's see if you can "let it go".

gringo, check your PMs.

No problem, khs. Barbers Hill has Jody and Barker, so at least your school's poor representation is only half that number of people. We know "balla" doesn't speak for Kirbyville, just like the aforementioned clowns don't do the same for BH (thank goodness for them). Heck, those two just wish their team can become good enough to beat a team like Kirbyville, after two years of playoff losses. Don't sweat it. We know Kirbyville has a good team and will be a factor in the district. Looking forward to Oct. 6.

You mean...they have "athletes" in Lumberton? Just kidding... My vote is TJ Light.

OK...for all the Barbers Hill fans on this site...WE DIDN'T SAY THIS. It came from a Dayton Bronco fan. Sorry, bronco, but it had to be said because one glance at this by some BH fans (two in particular) will be translated as "WO-S is bragging again." They never learn. Your confidence is appreciated. However, we're a lot more cautious to think that. We ran into a buzzsaw last year in the Wimberley Texans. Of all our years in 5A and 4A, no one ever whipped us like they did...not until we became a 3A team did we witness such a beating. We like our chances to make the playoffs (notice to BH fans: I didn't say "win district") and we like our chances to make a run in the playoffs (notice to BH fans: I didn't say "win state") if we stay healthy, but a state title is a dream and few get to realize it. We'll see what happens.

Chris, I believe.

WO-S had this kid with the last name of Norwood who played in '83. He was one of the most unheralded defensive players in WO-S history, but he is remembered to this day. By reading these lists, there's hardly any mention of players from the '60's, 70's, and early 80's. WO-S had an offensive lineman who played between '79 and '80 named Ray Rogers. He was an all-state lineman and one of the best we ever had (played college ball at UH). Another player on those same teams was Lawrence Hardin, a first team all state pick at safety. I know there are people on this board who remember some of the great players from the earlier PNG, Hebert, South Park, and Bridge City teams. What are some names from these teams?

Unless, I missed something, I didn't see anyone mention Mr. Hunt from Jasper who played on the '86 team. I've seen most Jasper teams play since that year, and he was the best Jasper RB IMO.

WO-S needs help in the kicking game. Has anyone scouted the hallways for the best 5'2" soccer player? There's at least one in every school.

About Bevil's injury, was it just a stinger? I hear he had a separated shoulder.

No doubt Bevil's injury had a huge impact on our offensive play. They were out of sync all night. It didn't help that we had trouble with the center to QB snap and too many penalties. Still, having to "gut out" a win like this will only help the team down the road. After so many good teams lost this week - Nederland, West Brook, Central, Dayton, Bridge City, Hamshire Fannett, Ozen, and Memorial - it's a relief to sweat out a win like this. Whew...

You had to bring up the scrimmage again, did you? I can't comment much on Bellville because I haven't seen them play and don't know much about them. So, do they stink? I don't know. Your post goes to show...once again...that you have an inflated opinion of your team. I grant you that BH has made improvements since the scrimmage spanking, but now you're insisting they be ranked in the top 10? NO WAY Barbers Hill is among the 10 best teams in the state. Have you forgotten that BH is now in 4A? Get real.
