Defense showed up second half and just showed who they were as a unit impressive job to shutdown a team for an entire half.

Offense did enough tonight and did it early which is whats key, we get a lead and we have the defense that can hold it.

I really like #0 and #2 for Crosby. They definitely are (and should be) the center pieces on each side of the ball for the Cougars.

[Mr. Buddy Garrity]

KP wasn't half bad, Crosby was just good. 🤷🏾‍♂️ 

 

0 and 2 going to Oklahoma State??

I thought #2 was going to Arizona but I am out of the loop on this stuff

0 is committed to UTEP

2 is committed to Arizona

Last night was the first time I’ve seen Crosby this year. With what I saw from the personnel on the field, I thought the staff did a good job with the game plan. I’ve heard some displeasure. My observation was that Crosby looked pretty good. Of course, the focus is on 2. But, it should be IMHO. He’s a solid player.

Congrats on the win. I think this pretty much tied up a PO spot.

Yeah.  With respect to certain Crosby fans, I was really looking for a non-talented, disorganized team out there but I was pleasantly surprised.

Yup.

Saw a few glimpses of the old Crosby out there. Unfortunate for the other QB getting injured however we let Lott get in rhythm and it pays off. Folks keep saying CHS doesn’t have the talent. That’s simply not true. But in order to stay within the rules I’ll keep my opinion to myself.

Maybe Texas Football will be right after all.  Just have to beat Laporte and Angleton.

I did a whole post about this many years ago (gonna see if I can find it and bump it to the top), but it's really not difficult to state an opinion without violating our rules, even when the opinion is about a coach or his coaching. but if you don't trust yourself to be able to stay within the rules, it's always best to err on the side of caution

I don’t think any Crosby fans said they don’t have the talent. Quite the contrary, they don’t have the leadership.

Ah.  Didn't fully comprehend what 14.2 was putting down.  Looks like everyone's playing where they supposed to

It looks like that because we played better overall. He’s been moving some players around the last couple of weeks and actually trying to get some of his athletes the ball which is a lot more “offensive coordinating” than he’s been doing during his time in Crosby. We’ll take the progress where we can get it though. 
 

We’re 3-0 in district play because we have better football players than three teams we’ve played. Again, you take the progress from the beginning of the year where we were losing to a team like Dayton who has half the talent we do. The issue is being consistently blown out by teams with equal or slightly better talent.  
 

Crosby is benefitting record-wise from a weak district but it’s helping us learn to win again. Thursday was the most swagger I’ve seen a Crosby team play with since Willis has been our coach. Wins are wins but if you’re objectively looking at what Crosby is considering progress after a year and a half under Willis it’s a game where we play two good quarters and then get shut out until late in the fourth quarter against a team with not near the personnel of La Porte or Angleton. Crosby could be a lot better than we are but I will admit this is the best we’ve looked under Willis. I guess it’s just going to take the kids overplaying his system and play-calling to achieve the results the last two coaches did?

So this is the first game we have not used alternating QB's. This is apparently due to an injury which is really sad and you never want to see a kid get hurt. Continuity was there tonight, the passing game looked much better. 

If I am being honest, I think the biggest thing was the QB knew if he did make a mistake he was going to right back out there to make up for it and I wonder what the effect of always wondering if you're going to be taken out at any time in the game was doing to that young sophomore who played a heck of a game 

Prior to this game those "new QB for 2 plays" were completely disjointing the offense even when the plays were successful. Also we've started to do this overload to one side toss zone play that has killed everyone in district so far that we did not run prior to districts end, who knows maybe if we put our kids in space earlier in the season we might have an extra win or maybe even two this season.
