If I’m honest, Woodville is the team to beat. They looked really strong when I saw them in Diboll last season which Diboll won 21-14. Could have gone either way. I believe they returned a good bit. Of course you have Coldspring who beat Diboll last year but I still left more impressed with Woodville’s capabilities. Palestine Westwood still has to prove they can actually be competitive against a true solid team. They’ve had a couple weak opponents to start the season. I believe Palmer will be the first true test to see where PW is this year. The PW freshman QB will only get better and will be a fun one to watch. Does he have the supporting cast? They’ve been at the bottom of the district last couple of seasons With what Diboll lost from graduation, it’s a toss up to where they land this year. they’re not short of talent, just experience. They get Coldspring and PW at home so maybe home field advantage gives them an edge I agree with the whole statement especially Diboll losing what they lost in graduation plus the next game Westwood will play... I'll try to see what info I can get out of that game Friday while watching our game against Hamshire-Fannett. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ballwatch Posted September 6, 2023 Report Share Posted September 6, 2023 With Franklin in Diboll this week, you have to play mistake free and disciplined, that’s just to keep the score respectable, but to have a chance at winning, Franklin needs to have a few mistakes, more than a few miscues, for the Jacks to have a chance. It would have to be an uncharacteristic night for them as that’s just not how they play. Diboll usually plays Franklin tough and put together a good game plan, as everyone said already, just hoping for a clean injury free game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though what I said Diboll being who they are losing key players to graduation it will be closer than that. I have that game 34-21 or 34-28.

Patience is not one of my strong suits. As mentioned before, this district should be fun to watch and my prayer is that each team continues throughout the season with minimal injuries and each team gives it their all! Great post!! Lol 😂 not mine either. I put my Coldspring football shirt out on Wednesday night. Lol 😂 I thought by putting it out, it would make Friday come on!! Good luck to your team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ballwatch Posted September 10, 2023 Report Share Posted September 10, 2023 Let’s keep the conversation going. These are this week’s results. Palestine Westwood 52 Palmer 44 PW was still questionable going into this game but this one raised some eyebrows. Their defense may be suspect so they may have to win by simply outscoring their opponents with what looks like a high powered offense no real surprises with the other scores Buna 24 Crockett 8 Orangefield 35 Shepherd 21 Liberty 17 Woodville 54 Diboll 13 Franklin 28 HF 30 Coldspring 8 Tarkington 37 Huntington 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jds82 Posted September 10, 2023 Report Share Posted September 10, 2023 I’m not sold on Woodville at all. Their Defense is suspect and that’s an understatement. 2point conversions are atrocious and they make absolutely 0 adjustments on offense and defense so with that being said, this district is wide open. What say ye??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What say ye??? If you want a glimpse of the future of Woodville football you have to go back and watch the film of the playoff games against Cameron yoe, Rockdale, Grandview and Hitchcock. Woodville has had some amazing talent with more size and speed than what they have now. Franklin and Newton are good teams but not what they were.

I agree this is one of the smaller teams but there's probably more team speed and athleticism on this team than all those years. There's probably at least 7 or 8 guys on this team that can go. Even the guys up front are very athletic and agile Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's always some real ballers who just aren't recruited as much just based off things like "size". Doesn't mean they're not good players though.

longball24 Posted September 12, 2023 Report Share Posted September 12, 2023 Size is great to have but it is not all it takes to go to the next level. Deuce Vaughn of the Dallas Cowboys is proof of that 5ft 5 If truly have speed and athleticism you can play at the next level. To Lions comment Neither Franklin or Newton are as good as they once were they are young and make too many mistakes. I don’t see either winning state this year. Next Year maybe.

Don't agree with this simply because we started slow last year as well. These early non district games are for fixing mistakes and everyone has only played 3 games at the most. Franklin brought back 5/5 last season and 6/6 this season so they weren't to young last season with less experience as you claim. All I'm going to say is I wouldn't wanna play us week 5.
