I learned a couple things last night. 1) Manvel isn't near as good as we have been in the past. 2) Crosby isn't near as bad as I thought they were. I can think of a million reasons why Manvel loss but it boils down to one... Crosby's will to win a ball game last night. You guys have reason to be proud and it wasn't so much about "WHO" they played but "HOW" they played. Crosby kids fought until the bell and earned my respect. That's 100! #COUGAR08, CCRed, FB_OG and 3 others 6 Quote

I picked Manvel to win but not once did I think Manvel would win because Crosby was a bad team. Crosby is very good, Manvel is good, just not THAT good. Quote

To be in a game with Crosby or anyone else after that many turnovers you have to be pretty good. But I understand where you coming from. Quote
ScubaSteve Posted September 8, 2018 Report Posted September 8, 2018 Last nights game was good for HS football, you got to love it, unless your Goliath. I’m wondering how many picked the wrong game to go watch... I’m sure glad football is back. Quote

We condition year round so we stay ready. Expand You would think that but I’m not so sure about the conditioning this year? That’s usually our strong suit early in the season. Second week in a row we had crucial players cramping up at critical times. Never saw one player cramp up for NC last week. Don’t think I saw one for Manvel last night either. That being said, I do agree we somehow wore Manvel down. We started gashing their d-line in the run game in the second half. Quote

Expand C’mon man, it’s not like y’all were handing us the ball. Manvel had one mishandled exchange which led to a fumble y’all ended up recovering. All those other fumbles were forced. I think Manvel was a little surprised after they bloodied Crosby’s nose that Crosby swung back. In order to make up the talent gap with a team like y’all Crosby was going to have to play physical, force Manvel into some mistakes and capitalize when they did. That’s what happened. Hopefully we get to do it again in December. *Looking at it, that is Manvel’s first regular season loss since Pearland in 2015. Quote

If you want me to lie to you and tell you that Crosby was the most physical team we have faced then I will but remember Manvel have faced off with NS, Katy, Westfield etc... We know a little something about true physicality. Manvel played a piss poor game and was still ahead with one second left. That is after 5 or so turnovers and way too many penalties... If we would have won that game I would feel the same way I feel now. Just so happen we played a team that was good enough to take advantage of it. From a Crosby standpoint you should be excited and view things objectively. Crosby did what they had to do... it's that simple. Congratulations on a big win. Quote
