HJ vs Bellville

[bullets13]

Make no mistake, Bellville is the favorite in this game. I have not read ONE prediction from any sight where HJ is picked to win. I hope HJ wins as it will be good for the school. HJ85 has already stated that he has never seen anything like this in his life.  

I would honestly call it an even money game.  I'm not sure why Bellville, based on THIS YEAR, would be a favorite.  identical records, HJ with better offensive numbers, Bellville with better defensive numbers, and HJ IMO with the tougher schedule.  it's no surprise that HJ is the overwhelming favorite in SETX, but realistically, putting the two side by side, i don't see why Bellville should be an overwhelming favorite.

I have been watching HJ football for 40 years and I would say this is the most talented group of boys as a whole we have ever had..the coaching is no doubt the best in school history..so you people that want to get on here and run a bunch of young men down for having their best season in school history go ahead..but it really makes you look like a person with no class..and as far as a teams history..well it does seem like you would know that history started at one point or another..and who are you to say this is not the start of HJ history?

I would argue that in 2001 we were as good as or better than this team, with McKeller at qb, Riley at rb, and LeDay at fb, along with Skinner, Portier, Bailey, and Fischer on defense, and a ton of size on our O and D lines.  We got decimated by injuries after starting 8-0, losing all three of those guys on offense and finishing 8-3.  But this team is definitely something special for HJ.

I suspect they are not an overwhelming favorite but every prediction in the state has them defeating HJ. I don't see where HJ had a tougher schedule. 8 of 11 teams played by Bellville were in the playoffs.

Managing Editor and Associate Editor at DCTF (a credible HS Football site) both pick HJ in this game.

Where are you getting this information?

9 of the 11 teams HJ played made the playoffs.
Including two district champions.

98,99,2000 HJ teams were not bad either. Imo

[HJ2012]

MaxPreps has a strength of schedule column, and it shows HJ's is tougher than Bellville's. I already showed you why HJ's district is tougher. Who is saying Bellville is the favorite? They have the same record, and they don't have a WO-S (or anything close to it) in their district.

About the predictions or about the teams faced? There are several all over on the predictions. Smoaky is one of them.

had a pretty good kicker that year, too :D

You are correct that Bellville does not have a WOS in their district. But WOS stomped a mudhole in HJ so that does not help the HJ cause.

Yep had one heck of a kicker.

I want to know what site has Bellville as the favorite. I'm not talking about forums. Anyone can getsmoaky and say whatever they want. Credible sources only, please.

[Guest]

9 vs 8? Similar to 3 of 4 vs 2 of 4 still in the playoffs. Similar to HJ beat Tatum who beat Newton who beat WOS who beat HJ? What does that tell us?

😂😂😂😂

Wow. Credible source!

HJ2012 - will you stop posting biased predictions from publications like Dave Campbell! To be clear, when falcon said he hadn't read a single prediction from any "sight" (sic), by that he meant no one from Smoaky.com (I.e. SETX haters.com) picking HJ! 😂😂

[bullets13]

Smoaky is as credible as they come!

[Guest]

I have never said that HJ would not win this game. I said that Bellville is the favorite according to the predictions I have seen. I hope HJ wins. It will be a good for the town. I acknowledge the DCTF prediction. You folks seem to do a great amount of fantasy/editorial.

[TxHoops]

Make no mistake, Bellville is the favorite in this game. I have not read ONE prediction from any sight where HJ is picked to win. I hope HJ wins as it will be good for the school. HJ85 has already stated that he has never seen anything like this in his life.

What part of this quote did we editorialize?

[TxHoops]

And when asked your sources, you replied with Smoaky. That's like saying no one was picking Texas to beat Oklahoma state and when asked the source, replying texags.

[TROJANSWIN]

The Bellville Times has them picked to win also!

[bullets13]

The Bellville Times has them picked to win also!

Hahahaha

[HJ85]

Smoaky predicted tatum to beat HJ..don't believe that worked for them

[CGull8]

Well I have always gone with Barry and MoFo's picks. I am an HJ fan and I hope they are picking HJ over Bellville but you never know until they enlighten us with their wisdom.
HJ to the third round against Orangefield.

SOUNDS GOOD TO ME CGull8
