LP won’t make it easy. Unlike Crosby, LP has QB’s that are actually accurate when they throw, RB’s that generally hold onto the ball, and players that know where and how to line up. PAM’s gonna have to earn this one.

I also noticed LP threw in some new wrinkles that PAM will now have to guard against. I’m sure they were added just to make PAM have to prepare for them.

PAM has a couple solid RB’s, and 14 is awesome. LP has 4 solid RB’s with Keenan back now, and 17 & 2 are definite weapons. Especially when teams have to stack for the run.

All of us! Should be another good one though. What neither team needs are injuries. Let’s hope both teams avoid that.

HA!

I don’t remember ever having one…

Even when it was the 3 Amigos (NS, PAM, LP) playing each other in district or playoffs. I know a lot of folk think 21-6A is the SEC of TXHSFB now—and it is to me also. But, 21-6 was already one of—if not the toughest—when we were all 3 in it. Heck, WB was even somewhat decent back then. 😂

Numerous years NS was repping D1 & LP was repping D2. Of course, the year PAM finally beat LP (the first time ever) 3 weeks after losing again in district to the Dawgs will live on in infamy.

If memory serves, NS, LP & PAM were all in Regional Finals with PAM & LP playing each other again that year.

I totally agree!

[Big Daddy Cool]

Remember when this used to a bitter bitter rivalry. With that in mind I see both squads bringing their best in this one. On the bright neither has to worry about North Shore anymore.

LP won in OT in 2014. @LP

It was the Cobra Jones introduction game!!

Better memory than me. I remember Cobra. But not the OT. Oh well. My login name may give a clue why I don’t remember everything anymore. HA!

(I was there when Lundin was still coaching and LP was meeting up with Craig James & Stratford. Dude played LB, RB & PK. LOL…)

Man I remember that one. Smh. We had our chances that game. That actual game is online. 

[Mr. Buddy Garrity]

Rewatching our last game again, we might be a faster overall team than last season.

Yep. First ever win by PAM over LP. Hard to beat a good team 2x in less than a month. Especially when they know each other so well. I still think LP matched up better—matchup wise—to San Antonio whoever it was for the next game.

I am of the opinion that LP had a big letdown after beating Katy, and PAM had a big letdown after finally beating LP. I think we wiped each other out.

I wonder how many other times since a single district had 3 of the 4 teams in the Regional Finals at the 6A level?

Baker seems faster than Martin to me. Maybe just the style he runs. Big fan of ‘Pierre’ (sp). #14. He’s a baller.

Calpreps has PAM 41 - LP 28. But, Calpreps has been off on their projections for LP before game a lot this year.

With this being a rivalry game, I have no clue. It could go all kind of ways. I do think it will be high scoring. Say, O/U of 75.

I agree. Cibolo Steele was a beast.

I don't trust projections in a rivalry game. 😂

Agree.

PAM had a pick 6 against Crosby. But—not being disrespectful of the young man—Crosby’s QB was not a very effective passer.

LP’s D has been very opportunistic with 4 INT’s (2 pick 6’s) in the last 2 games, and I don’t remember how many fumbles recovered this year. All while being pretty decent ball security wise.

If LP creates defensive scores against PAM, PAM’s in trouble.
