Ok.  Thanks.  This will be a doozie.  I’ll go dig up some video on Aledo and research Crosby one more time and give a prediction.

LH - well coached and well disciple. Not much athleticism but they do everything right and know how to run that offense 

Tex High - Overrated in an overall weak district

FBM - Has the athletes still there but not as good as in past years 

Huntsville- I didnt really get to catch them play so im kinda lost. I know they were undefeated and ranked very high

I'm most impressed with our game against Cedar Hill. We were down by 3 with about 4 minutes left and had the opportunity to go win the game. Our Sophomore QB threw an int and then a couple plays later they scored to make it a 10 point game. But we had em!

Y’all hung tough with CH.  now that’s something.  I believe they’re also playing for a title in 6a...

I think that game was important for us. Gave our kids confidence they could play with anyone in D2.

We played them in non-district. I think he was asking playoffs. Plus we lost that game.

Crosby went to OT with both Huntsville and Liberty Hill.  I think those two were better than FBM and Texas High.  Huntsville and LH were very different types of teams so Crosby folks can decide who was best.  I personally had Huntsville-Aledo in my predicted Final.

Dont know much about either but I'll take Crosby by 6 prediction....late touchdown and blocked extra point and a pick to seal it.

Speaking of blocked kicks, Aledo has blocked a punt in the last 3 games. Hoping to extend that number.

Aledo coach:   6 state Titles              Fort Bend Marshall Coach:  0 state titles.

Not saying FBM's coach is not good.  Just saying not yet on the level of Aledo's coach.

There’s an argument for Reginald Samples or Phil Danaher to currently be the best coaches in THSF. Probably 650 career wins but 0 state titles between them. You don’t think those guys are elite but somebody like Tom Westerberg, who’s only finished above 3rd place once in his time at BH I believe, is for his work at Allen which consisted of multiple state titles?
 

Go tell another high school coach that Kirk Martin and Glen West aren’t elite for what they did at Manvel and Brenham. How do you know Crosby’s coach isn’t elite too? He’s going to be coaching for a title in his 28th career game, Tim Buchanan didn’t coach for a title until his 73rd career game at Aledo.

1. FBM - If they play their best game they’re going to beat all those other teams more times than they’ll lost to them. 
 

2. Huntsville - I think they’re tied with with FBM defensively. FBM hands down has the better offense so I put them ahead. 
 

3. LH - They scored a lot of points on Crosby with that offense but I’d imagine they could only get half that on FBM or Huntsville. The way FBM held Calallen to 17 points in that semifinal game a few years ago lets me know their staff can defend that style offense. They would score the same 60 Crosby did offensively. The Bobino brothers would just smother the entire inside against LH so I think it’s an even worse matchup for them. 
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

4. Texas High - several 5A teams down here would beat them

Aledo should be the home team

Nah, you’re here supporting Crosby and we appreciate it. Maybe I can get a Code Red shirt for you.

I wish it would have been a normal year so all of yall could come up and pack the stadium. Great seeing the communities make the drive.

Hype? 

No disrespect. Maybe the wrong word to use. You guys no doubt have a great program and lots of playoff history. My point is to not go in with the mindset you’re behind the 8 ball. Just play your game.

Mostly agree with this, but FBM would not have beaten Huntsville this year.  No Orange Bowl MVP D. Achane to save them this time.  Waited all year for that.  Thanks Crosby

I agree. Crosby needs to focus on playing against 2020 Aledo. Not our program and its history. Its tough. Seen many teams let the name on the front of the jersey psyche them out. I will admit though playing at AT&T is an experience that will be a distraction. At least for a min or two. Aledo is comfortable playing there and the allure has worn off. My favorite example of this is when Aledo played Temple.
