Ok 8-5A D2 has a positive pts only system with a cap of 18 and they revert back H2H...

So let's say form holds and Nederland & PNG win out, we get a 3 way tie between Huntsville, Montgomery and Lake Creek...

Montgomery would be 3rd due to +18 

Revert back H2H for Huntsville Lake Creek and Lake Creek gets 4th

Huntsville has to beat Nederland to get in at this point...they really can't get in with 3 losses unless Lake Creek loses one they aren't supposed to

Interesting I didn’t know it would revert back to head to head for Huntsville and LC. Is that on the UIl site somewhere?

Any idea on where Thomas is at rushing yard wise? I swear before last night he was averaging 250+ a game

[Eazy]

I do not like the way the tiebreaker reverts back to H2H.  It’s the same tiebreaker that Huntsville lost out on a few years ago.  Logically to me, whoever is 2nd on positive points gets the next spot.  Huntsville will likely be on the wrong end of this again.  Yes, they still control their destiny, but without their QB, I don’t see them beating Nederland.

No I called Huntsville HC

I wonder how the BIGGEST Homer on the planet Ashly Elam is doing this afternoon

Great win NED! We watched the game this morning. Very entertaining! 

[Reagan]

From the PA News:  

"Hubert Thomas led all rushers with 146 yards on 26 carries and scored two touchdowns. Ayden Sunday completed 6 of 10 passes for 153 yards and one touchdown. He also rushed for 86 yards on nine carries."

The silsbee game was mostly due to the punter spotting Silsbee 14 points

But they still lost, right?

No one except CJ can answer your question of course, but regular viewers notice that he's all over the sidelines, and always engaged. At the side at times, and sometimes in the middle, and occasionally one on one in a player's face. Don't try to read anything into it. Nederland won this one, and leave it at that.

Our lack of offensive creativity and no defensive backfield will end our playoffs early.

One year removed from a state championship team. Probably due to personnel more than anything else.

The offensive personnel is fine. The offensive play calling isn’t. We’re literally “throwing” drives away. The defense has some serious personnel problems (without getting specific as to individuals, there is definitely a weak side to our defense and Nederland knew that and had their success there). SOC will beat us by three scores.

Which round of the playoffs could NED and PNG meet again? The 2nd or 3rd? That would be insane. And I’m on vacation the first two weeks of playoffs 🫠

If they go in as 1 and 2, then it would be 4th round. 1st week of December.  Not sure I’d change plans quite yet.

If we are the 1st and 4th seed, we’d  meet in the 3rd round. If we’re the 2nd and 3rd we’d meet in the 3rd round. If one of us is 1st or 4th and the other is 2nd or 3rd we’d only meet in the 4th round.

Oh good. I saw on another post someone said the second round and I was like oh no…lol.

It would be fun, but prob not going to happen!

That's the type of coach most programs around this area wish they had. Man knows who he is what he does and how to get kids to buy in.

Lost the streak and #1. No congrats at all.

The students ran on the field. You saw it, everyone saw it - If I was the coach I would have told the png players to skip the handshakes. It’s safer. No need to pretend it’s anything but that. 

[AshlyHasBeen]

LOL, I'm just seeing this. Doing great! Was watching my kids play sports Saturday, hosting a Halloween party and doing a a little Trick-or-treating Sunday. We are surviving in the land of purple.
