BBfan061 Posted December 11, 2023 Report Posted December 11, 2023 I’m curious what people think about this one… polar opposite offensive styles… a lot of speed on that Gilmer offense. Figured on this message board I could get some less bias opinion and outlooks than on Smoaky… my brain hurts trying to have reasonable football discussions on that board. Quote

BBfan061 Posted December 11, 2023 Author Report Posted December 11, 2023 Wimberley definitely had a good strategy… not sure if Gilmer has a QB that will lower the shoulder and run you over but that seemed to give us fits… that and Wimberley had the best O line I’ve seen this season Quote

BULLSeye Posted December 11, 2023 Report Posted December 11, 2023 Bellville is going into this game with the #1 scoring offense and the #1 defense in points allowed. Gilmer is right behind them coming in at #2 in scoring offense. Gilmer’s defense is their weak spot. “If” Bellville's offense can take advantage of Gilmer’s defense, and wear them down pounding the rock, (which they’ve done extremely well all year long) Bellville's defense will be key to winning this game. “If” they show up playing like the #1 defense they’ve been all year. (And I’m sure they will because I’ve talked to a few of the players, and they assured me they are ready!) They will physically wear Gilmer down and make all the jabber mouths on Smoaky eat their words. Everyone knows #99 DJ Sanders name by now and if they don’t, they will Friday but I rarely hear #25 mentioned Conner Gains. He leads the team in tackles, he’s also their punter, that’s done a great job pinning opposing offenses back when they’ve had to punt. If you’ve been to any of the games you’ve heard his name a lot. The kid has a motor and a nack for tracking down the ball and he is relentless when he dials in. Defense wins championships….. and Bellville clearly has the better D. 🤷🏻♂️ Quote
wo-s#1 Posted December 11, 2023 Report Posted December 11, 2023 The only worry I have for Bellville is them bright lights! Hopefully the moment isn’t too big for them and we see a good ballgame… Quote
BULLSeye Posted December 11, 2023 Report Posted December 11, 2023 Well that goes for both sides. I believe they will be ready. That group of seniors is a tight knit group. This is what they’ve been playing together for since pee-wee Quote

BigBrother Posted December 12, 2023 Report Posted December 12, 2023 Gilmer’s schedule is the 2nd toughest (based on opponents’ record) and the 4th toughest (based on opponents’ power rating) in Class 4A-II according to PigskinPrep.com Gilmer’s three losses were to Chapel Hill, Kilgore and Texarkana Pleasant Grove; teams with a combined record of 37-5. Chapel Hill is playing in the 4A D-I State Championship game Bellville's schedule is the 24th toughest (based on opponents’ record) and the 32nd toughest (based on opponents’ power rating) in Class 4A-II according to PigskinPrep.com Bellville's first 11 games were against teams with a losing record. In contrast; look at Gilmer's schedule. Only 5 opponents with losing records and 10 with winning records. Our opponents combined record is 101-62 while Bellville's opponents combined record is 73-81 Quote

Gilmer has been ran off the field in multiple games and the defense is giving up 37 points per game in the playoffs. Gilmer is going to face Bellville on Friday just like the rest of the teams who “played a tougher schedule”. BBfan061 and BULLSeye 2 Quote

Are you indicating that “it is not ok for Bellville to be as confident of their team as Gilmer is of theirs”? It is fairly common for Gilmer folks to gnash their teeth when someone thinks Bellville has a chance. Quote
lostaussie Posted December 12, 2023 Report Posted December 12, 2023 I would EXPECT you to to have confidence in your team. Just like we do ours. Jeesh Quote
Dirty_but_Dazzling Posted December 12, 2023 Report Posted December 12, 2023 yall have the final two teams left in a very competitive classification so you both are oozing confidence and rightfully so! Quote
lostaussie Posted December 12, 2023 Report Posted December 12, 2023 I will say this. We are not where I expected after the 1st night of the season when I watched Chapel Hill destroy us. The motto of this team this year is a word that I use every day at my work. I work for a Japanese company and I hear the word "Kaizen" every single day. That means "continuous improvement ". That is the battle cry of the Buckeyes and for this season it couldn't be more fitting. They have gotten better and more confident as the season has gone on. That is a testament to the players and coaching staff. They believe in themselves and now they have the whole town believing. We will all see how it turns out on Friday. Quote
