I'll have to get back with Coach Babin as texasfootball.com shows the game as "cancelled."

I've heard all of Crosby's schools are closed this week but haven't heard anything about the game on Friday. 

[WOSgrad]

Per Coach Babin, as of now, the game is still on for Saturday at 6.  However, it may be cancelled so Coach Babin is actively searching for potential Week 1 opponent should the game fall through.

If your school gets caught without a dance partner for this weekend and still wish to play, you can contact Coach Babin at [email protected].

[WOSgrad]

According to Coach Jeff Nations, Dayton at Channelview has been cancelled.

Coach Riordan has announced on twitter that Friday's game is cancelled.

Since these games do not affect district standings, would they be made up or not normally. I can't remember this many cancellations ever.

They are not made up.

Well shucks. Thanks

Teams can still fill their bye with a game. Seems like there will be a lot of options depending on who has your same bye week. However not all schools are willing to give up their bye week. I hope most will so those seniors don't miss out on a game.

[WOSgrad]

I don't know guys.  After watching KFDM all day long, the chance of there being football is not that good.  Let's think about this.  After just two days of this event, drainage systems are taxed to the breaking point and we have, if forecasts are correct, three more days of the same, if not worse.  You are gonna have major flooding which will prevent schools from operating and teams from practicing.  The likelihood is good that many players will be displaced as a result of this weather, possibly some coaches, too.

Look, I want more than anything for these kids to take the field Friday night.  I have been waiting on this since Christmas!  I spent a good part of the spring and summer preparing for it.  But we gotta remember that this weather will create issues that will bump Friday Night Football down on the list of priorities.

If the West Brook and Central game is cancelled, it won't be made up.  The 2 schools have a bye week but it's during different weeks.

I agree, if Central misses out on this game, I'd hope the coaches would at least try to pull off a game the week of September 29th to give the boys 10 games.  Just some possible week 6 opponents The Woodlands (no thanks), Crosby (my pick), Cleveland, Huffman-Hargrave, LC-M, Navasota, etc. plus a lot of schools around Houston.

it's totally up to the schools if they want to try and fill a game during the bye week...

1) Most don't like playing ten straight games, so they simply don't fill it, especially if the bye falls during district play

2) Even if they want to fill it, they have to find an opponent who is also willing to play

95% of cancelled non-district games are not made up

You are correct, just wishful thinking...

I believe there is no point in posting any game predictions. I am certain no local games will be played this week. No sense in trying to prepare for anything in this mess. Just call week 1 a wash (no pun intended) and move on to your week 2 opponent.

We are forecast to get 15-20 more inches of rain up to Friday. Only playable stadiums locally would be Da Butch, Memorial, The Rez and Lumberton. East Chambers and Hardin may be playable but parking and getting there would be problematic.

For this reason, hope you are wrong.  I know both sets of coaches, players and true fans want this one to happen.  Neither team has an advantage of practice time, they both started on August 14th.  Neither team has had a scrimmage, they were both cancelled.  Channel 12 news said we only have a 20% chance of rain Friday.  Let's play it...
