1970

Got it. I was more like tagging on to your post, rather than responding to it, per se.

Buna lost to EC by one score, so they might hang with Hardin for a bit. Maybe longer if they play defense better than EC. I watched most of the game last Thursday, and Hardin lined up for a tush push or similar almost every play. No wide receivers or any receivers, pretty much 11 guys bunched up in a scrum all night, and the EC d-line was on it's own. The DBs and LBs stayed back and watched until it was too late. Maybe Buna will figure it out or maybe not, but they better have a few kids that like to fight because the Hardin kids throw punches, literally. It'll be a long night for Buna I'm thinking unless they can keep the clock running.

Per JJ's post-game interview he was planning to begin getting ready for the Splendora game yesterday (Sunday). The starters will start I'm sure unless they're injured. The second half will probably be similar to the second half of the MLC game. That doesn't mean that the coaches will relax. "They all wear the same uniform", says coach JJ. If a second or 3rd or 4th team player screws up, then they will get a talking to.

Dayton, in another score-fest.

Yeah, polls are bad mojo, especially in October, week 6 of setx high school football. Btw I'm going with Huntsville I think, by a touchdown.

I hate that this game ended in the manner that it did. But it was a crazy game from the get go, sort of. Or perhaps from the mishandled kick off. I saw BU mishandle a kick-off like that against PNG in '22. Going way back to the 60s, Groves Jr High recovered two kickoffs for TDs in a row against Port Arthur Edison Jr High. The Edison coach was livid.

CB is #14? When was he injured? I missed that apparently. Sure hope he recovers quickly.

High scoring game, but still, that was two very tough teams tonight, I'll give them that. I was impressed.

I wish LC could've pulled it off.

I'm not questioning the Huntsville field goal decision, although I probably would have gone for it myself. I did however question PNGs play calling at the close of the 1st half. That long pass into coverage was silly, and not necessary with over a minute left. Anyway the game was definitely a tale of two halves.

for 2 pts and the win in 3rd OT ... no, 4th OT. I lost count.

ok, are they just doing 2 pt conversions now?

#10 for Ned get hurt?

!!:29/39/F

good game! PNG pulled it out.

PNG's turn to be flat, and tonight they are fffllllaaaattttt!

You mean like 4A or 5A? Yes of course he can! College? IDK.

game over I think. 2 minute warning. unless a fumble ...

Every play is a scrum. With the pitchouts it looks just like rugby with pads.

Yeah but that long run that was called back really hurt.

Hardin lines up with no outside receivers, it's just a wad of 11 guys, the RBs right behind the QB. And the EC DBs and LBs line up way back off the ball and watch until the Hardin RB is coming at them full steam.

Ha! No, he won't be at that game!

I played golf today with a guy that sometimes works on the chain crews, and asked him about this game, and he says Nederland, for the W. So, there's that.

Those areas all appear to be growing, with Starbucks and everything! I need to take a drive up Hwy 90 sometime; I guess the last time I was in Dayton was 2023, and Crosby, I don't remember, 2021 maybe. Anyway, good luck to all of the teams, should be some good games.

I won't be surprised to see Crosby win this one by a touchdown. On a side note, I still have trouble seeing Crosby classified as 5aD1, for some reason. It's been a while since I drove through there. Up Hwy 90 from Dayton, I guess they rate having a Starbucks . (Dayton doesn't have a Starbucks, but they beat Crosby.)
