Livingston was up 14 with about 1:15 left. Needville scored in I think three plays starting from midfield, and went for an onside kick. The Lions recovered, but with 50 seconds left fumbled the first play on a toss, Blue Jays recovering. With one time out, they drove (if you can call another three plays a drive) down the field and dove into the end zone with 15 seconds left, and converted for two for a one point lead. Needville pooched the kick, and the Lions ran a play or two and got to Needville's 35. Down one, the field goal unit took the field, but the kick was blocked to end the game.

Oh to be a Lions fan. Wouldn't trade it for anything. 

That aside, it was a great game and Livingston is looking much better than in years past. Will be interested to see what we can do over the rest of the season.

Sounds like poor play calling by the coach. Why are you pitching the ball if your up by a score with less than a minute. I’ve heard the team as a whole is better than the last few. Good luck to Livingston this year.

Many of us feel your pain, having seen our team snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.   Feels like swallowing a shotput.   Good luck the rest of the season.

      Barbers Hill (28) vs La Porte (55) - FINAL

      That should tell everyone something pretty clearly. Does anyone really think BH is recruiting elementary kids, to get them to transfer in Jr. high? Seriously? Here is the "dirty little secret" about BH: Most people move to the district for a quality living environment to raise their young family, and benefit from the outstanding acedemics at BH. Even If all athlectics suddenly disappeared from BH, people would still want their kids in the district. If thats not enough to convince anyone, and BH really was determined to recruit, first step would be to have open enrollemnt. It is closed.        Yes, I get it, no one ever wants to give BH the benefit of the doubt on anything. Some of the accusations are beyond ridiculous though. This paranoia the BH critics are afflicted with is not just sad, its flat out laughable.

      Opting is always an option. Are they considering any BC assistants? Highly qualified after that season they put up.

      Be that as it may, only time will tell. Hide and watch. Don’t be surprised if the next HC hire uses his own recipe. That happens more than not historically. I am not arguing the point that Hooks & CT had a winning combination that could’ve been carried over. I’m saying that finding someone to do that is not going to be as easy as one might think. Tell me again why Saban’s replacement, who even has Saban’s assistance if he wants it, just lost another game to an unranked team and has taken the Tide out of playoff contention? Why wouldn’t he just follow the success of possibly the greatest college football coach ever lived?

      We've acknowledged having 2 HOF coaches hasn't been like most other schools. So why everyone jumps to the conclusion it wouldn't work here is beyond my comprehension. I see it carry over with these other hires. Gilmer, Aledo, North Shore, Austin Westlake. Next man up that continues the system in place has instant success. Matter fact there was 2 rookie HC that won the state championship the same year we handed over the keys. Same book. Same recipe. Better ingredients.
