Being unfamiliar with both teams, I discounted both of yall. Figured yall would lose to Pflugerville Weiss (terrible letdown), Lufkin (talked a good game), or one of the Brazos teams. But now, having watched some playoff games, I appreciate the physicality that both of yalls teams have played with. Yall both have certainly earned it. My hats off to ya. I would say I'm cheering for La Porte because orange and black are close to my heart but I'm just hoping for a great game to watch. May the best team win! Good luck and save travels. Hopefully we can get a game in two weeks.

In my bracket challenge on the 5A site I have Weiss making it to state. The potential is there for them. Just about playing a complete game. Do we know if they are streaming the game?

The top half of the R3 bracket is really tough! Lufkin, College Station, Crosby, PAM, Angleton, and Weiss. Good luck!

Aint no easy path in R3 lol! Honestly, this might be the most balanced tournament I can remember region to region. R1 most likely comes down to Aledo/Denton Ryan. R2 Lone Star/ Highland Park/Reedy. R3 A&M/Lufkin/CS/Weiss. R4 Pieper/PSJAN/SV. And none of that counted dark horses like Richland/Midlothian/Georgetown/Angleton/La Porte/Ball/Flour Bluff/New Braunfels/Vela. Then complete wildcards like Abilene/Cedar Park/Lake Belton/West Mesquite/Red Oak/Barbers Hill/ SA Southwest/ CCVM. Going to be really fun! Cant wait!

A couple of unofficial notes: - Amarillo and Tascosa play each other. If Tascosa wins then Monterey moves into 2nd place, Tascosa 3rd and Amarillo 4th. - Reedy and Lone Star are playing for the district championship. Winner will avoid Highland Park until the 4th round. - Newman Smith and Creekview are playing for 2nd and 3rd place. Winner will get to host a playoff game!! - Midlothian and Highland Park are playing for a district championship!! - Waltrip and Sterling play each other week 11. If Waltrip wins- 1. Waltrip 2. Galena Park 3. Sterling. If Sterling wins 1. Galena Park 2. Sterling 3. Waltrip. Best guess. - At first glance it looks like D13 has 4 teams playing for the final playoff spot (3-3 Seguin, 2-4 Wagner, 2-4 Victoria East, 2-4 Boerne-Champion). After looking at the schedule Seguin plays the last place 0-6 MacArthur team. So most likely Seguin locks up the last playoff spot. - The playoffs start a week early for Harlingen South and Weslaco East!! They play each other for the final playoff spot. Love the win and get in games!! - Four teams playing for the final two spots (All are 3-3): Mission, McAllen, Rowe, Palmview. Mission plays the last play Juarez- Lincoln team so lets say they win and get in. Final spot will come down to the McAllen vs Rowe game. Winner of that game most likely gets in unless Palmview can upset McAllen Memorial. Then things get crazy.

Cedar Park is 5-3. Looks like you meant Cedar Creek.

District 12 is going to be hard to beat. Seems like they have 3 solid teams!

Still a couple of weeks to go but here is a projection that I put together. W1 El Paso El Dorado vs F2 Amarillo Tascosa R4 Arlington Heights vs T3 Richland W2 Abilene vs F1 El Paso Bel Air R3 Denton Ryan vs T4 Paschal W3 Aledo vs F4 Chisholm Trail R2 Amarillo vs T1 El Paso Parkland W4 Saginaw vs F3 Azle R1 El Paso Americas vs T2 Lubbock Monterey W5 Frisco Reedy vs F6 Dallas White R8 Cedar Park vs T7 Red Oak W6 West Mesquite vs F5 McKinney North R7 Midlothian vs T8 Lake Belton W7 Highland Park vs F8 Leander Rouse R6 Carrollton Newman Smith vs T5 Frisco Wakeland W8 Georgetown vs F7 Burleson Centennial R5 Frisco Lone Star vs T6 Carrollton Creekview W9 Lufkin vs F10 Houston Milby R12 College Station vs T11 Crosby W10 Houston Waltrip vs F9 Barbers Hill R11 La Porte vs T12 Pflugerville Weiss W11 Angleton vs F12 Austin Anderson R10 Galena Park vs T9 Port Arthur Memorial W12 A&M Consolidated vs F11 Friendswood R9 Galveston Ball vs T10 Houston Sterling W13 Comal Pieper vs F14 South San Antonio R16 McAllen Memorial vs T15 CC Veterans Memorial W14 Northside Jay vs F13 Seguin R15 PSJA North vs T16 Mission W15 Flour Bluff vs F16 McAllen Rowe R14 SA Southwest vs T13 New Braunfels W16 Edinburg Vela vs F15 Weslaco East R13 Smithson Valley vs T14 Southwest Legacy

Will this game be streamed?

Anyone want to avatar bet for 1 week? I'll take Lufkin.

Went Lufkin. I've only seen a couple of highlights from each team. Hopefully it's a good game.

What were the expectations coming into the season? What are they to finish the regular season? How are things looking if yall make the tournament?

When do those teams play?

Everybody ropes and everybody rides.

Should we be talking about Ball from a regional contender standpoint? Yalls score was shocking.

Ended up winning 42-27. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Do you think Ball is legit?

Several starters coming off of injury and might not make it back in time for non-district. Not sure when they will be medically cleared. So working off of that info I think it is very possible we start the season 0-2 if they all miss. Guyer has historically been a tough program for us to beat so that wont change this year. Lancaster on the other hand is a wildcard. They are talented but in general I'd think we would beat them more often than not but with the handful of potential starters missing then it makes this game that much harder. Week 1 at 6A Denton Guyer Week 2 home vs 6A Lancaster

'53-'55 three consecutive finals appearances winning 2 titles. '74-'77 4 seasons in a row yall played 14+ games, winning a title. What would need to be accomplished for this run to be considered the golden era of PNG football?

Have yall thought about releasing a digital copy to a select "council" to do a quality control check? There are some series football heads on these forums that have been following TXHSFB for decades. I could recommend 5-7 people from the 6A forum, 5A forum, Smoaky and this one that could double check everything. @Mr. Buddy Garrity makes my list from this site. Just an idea.

Thats a bummer. Does the coaching staff try to adjust the offense to the players strengths year to year or they run the same system no matter what? Not changing the playbook per se but calling plays that the players can excel at.

Yall starting out in the top 10. Just didnt know if a playoff run past the 1st round was in the cards?

Any thoughts on the season?

Highland Park is an elite program. They are going to be tough to beat come December.
