Eventually, someone's gonna give the Bulldogs a decent game. This might be the week that happens, but I doubt it. Carthage is a machine.

Pretty generous of them.   Maybe they meant in the 3rd Qtr.  😂

The Bulldogs will be too much for the Texans. 
Was no surprise China Spring was no contest for Carthage, they should have never been there , but in the year of Covid strange things have happened.  A healthy  WOS would have given Carthage a decent game, but Carthage is just to well put together for 4A.

Carthage is a VERY vell oiled machine......they will be state champs!!

Healthy WOS might have kept it within 2-3 TDs. Carthage is just that good. They will name their score vs Wimberly

Depends on what you call a decent game.

IMO , WOS defense would slow down the Carthage scoring machine, but not stop it. On the other hand Carthage defense would shut down WOS offense unless pop had the game of his high school career throwing it. The only way WOS opens up the running game would be to be extremely successful throwing it. Score would be 28 - 7. But we will never know.

curious if anyone knows if carthage starters have allowed more than one touchdown in any game this year.

Anybody have an opinion on the trick play China Spring ran against Carthage.  From a punt formation the center hiked the ball and held it until a back came by and grabbed it and ran in for a score.  Does the center have to hike it to somebody or can he hike it and hold it?

Totally legal. He did hike it, technically, to the back that took it from his hands. He could even set it on the ground and the guard pick it up and run with it (guard around).

Is guard around still legal? I thought you couldn't put it on the ground anymore...

I think this is legal, basically the same as snapping it to a back in a "Wildcat" situation.

You may be correct. I come from a time far far away. Lol.

Heck you might be right, I really don't know. But I thought my grandson told me they couldn't do it anymore when he was playing.

Think I heard guard around is no longer legal.  In this case he hiked it and held it long enough for the player to come get it.  There was a pause when he held it.

You are correct. I asked one of my coaching buddies. He said guard was no longer legal.
