The bag pipes are playing. Really old stadium with fans right on top of players. HP has close to 100 players suited up.

[Lightning/Eagle]

7-0 HP 9:22 first. HP just plays disciplined. Nothing fancy so far.

Cool experience there at HP! 

[Lightning/Eagle]

Snap over punters head HP ball at 17

[Lightning/Eagle]

14-0 HP. Gonna get ugly if NC don’t settle down. Not sure why we threw 2 passes and A QB run first series. Haven’t passed well all year and QB not a runner.

[Lightning/Eagle]

NC fumbles kickoff. HP ball at NC 37.

[Lightning/Eagle]

21-0 5:12 first. Honestly nothing HP has done exceptionally. NC just shot themselves in foot with two quick turnovers. 

[Lightning/Eagle]

Love the HP coach with the Tom Landry hat.

[Guest ECBucFan]

Yep. The legendary Randy Allen.  

[Lightning/Eagle]

NC next series a double reverse and two incomplete passes. No idea why we’re not utilizing the best athletes which are the RB’s.

[Lightning/Eagle]

28-0 2:23 first.

[Lightning/Eagle]

35-0 3:45 in half. At least we ran it and got a couple first downs and ran some clock.

[Lightning/Eagle]

Sack fumble by NC. HO about to score again. :53 seconds in half

[Lightning/Eagle]

42-0 8 seconds in half

[Lightning/Eagle]

49-0 6:07 third quarter. 
HP is certainly very good. I think College Station can play a good game with them should they get there.

[Lightning/Eagle]

49-7 2:32 third 

[Lightning/Eagle]

HP second team offense throws a sixty yard TD pass on third and sixteen. 56-7 1:37 third quarter.

[Lightning/Eagle]

Second string QB is 4 for 4 and looks good. He would start for a lot of teams including ours.

[Lightning/Eagle]

56-14 4:29 left.

[Lightning/Eagle]

56-21 1:06 left

V formation final 56-21

I did, I was not expecting the game to be much different than it turned out to be. The stadium is in a very nice neighborhood, quite different than your normal high school stadiums. Very little room on the visitors side from the field to the stands. I was on the top row and you could hear the coaches talking to the players. It was not easy finding the parking garage for the visitors which was on a one way street with road construction. The bag pipes playing before the game gave a unique feeling. You could tell they have lots of tradition and community support. I'm glad I made the trip.
